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 is lot rent at Watkins Mobile Home Park?

How much can lot rent go up at Watkins Mobile Home Park?
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).
