Wortham v. Village of Barrington Hills

Plaintiffs appealed from a trial court order affirming the administrative imposition of fines for violations of local municipal zoning ordinances. The primary issue before the court was whether the plaintiffs' act of renting out their home as a short-term rental on VRBO.com constituted a permitted residential use under the applicable provisions of the zoning code. The appellate court affirmed, finding that the rental constituted an impermissible business use. (LAMPKIN and MARTIN, concurring)
