  2. The dwelling is officially registered as vacant with the City.
  3. A code official declares the dwelling unsuitable for human occupancy.

If there's an error in the unit count on your tax bill, or for inquiries related to your recycling tax account, contact the Accounting Office at 217-384-2448.
