For residents
- Water billing: Illinois bars charging residents again for common-area water the utility already bills separately, and where common-area use isn’t separately metered, caps what residents can be billed at 80% of the total utility bill (765 ILCS 745/6.2). Check the math free with the water submeter calculator.
- Paying rent: ask the park office how they take payment. Parks that run on Lot Sidekick hand residents clear, itemized rent and water bills.

How much can lot rent go up at Longacre Estates?
Illinois sets no statewide cap on lot-rent increases, and state law bars cities from setting a local one (50 ILCS 825) — but every increase needs 90 days' written notice, and a resident whose new rent would top 45% of household income can defer paying the increase for up to a year while listing their home for sale (765 ILCS 745/6, 745/6.4).
Where does the water at Longacre Estates come from?
Longacre Estates operates its own public water system, registered with the EPA as IL0290010 ("LONGACRE ESTATES MHP"). That means the park — not a city utility — supplies and is accountable for the water at each lot.
