Park Forest's Ch. 18 Art. III Housing § 18-253 authorizes the designated administrative official to create and adopt the forms, written rules, and regulations needed to carry out the housing article's enforcement — as long as those materials do not conflict with the article itself. Any forms, rules, or regulations that are adopted must be kept on file and made available for public inspection and use at village hall. This provision ensures that the administrative framework supporting the housing code remains transparent and accessible to the public.
