Frequently asked questions
- Which parts of the rezoning application need notarization?
- The Disclosure of Ownership Interest Affidavit has a verification sworn before a notary. The sample Proof of Service also has a sworn statement and notary block.
- Do I need to notarize the entire application?
- The form's notary blocks appear in the ownership disclosure affidavit and sample proof of service, not on every application page. Confirm which supporting documents apply to your filing.
- How do I complete the sworn statements remotely?
- Illinois authorizes electronic and remote notarization for its own notaries and recognizes notarial acts performed outside Illinois by an officer authorized where the act occurs. Book a commissioned online notary and sign during the video session.
- When should I file the application and notify neighbors?
