Section 18-1144 of Sauk Village's Ch. 18 Art. XIX establishes that the registration fees and penalties set out in the defaulted mortgage and vacant property registration article are not permanently fixed. The village president and board of trustees hold the authority to change those amounts through a resolution, administrative order, or a formal amendment to the article. This means the financial obligations tied to property registration can be updated over time through official village action.
