Sauk Village — Ch. 18 Art. XIX Registration of Defaulted Mortgage and Vacant Properties § 18-1147
Codification
Operative Text
It is the intention of the village president and board of trustees, that the provisions of this article shall become and be made a part of the Village Code of Ordinances; and that the sections of this article may be renumbered or re-lettered to accomplish such intention, and the word "ordinance" may be changed to "section", "chapter", or such other appropriate word or phrase in order to accomplish such intentions.
Section 18-1147 of Sauk Village's Ch. 18 Art. XIX is a codification clause, meaning it expresses the village's intent to formally incorporate the article's provisions into the permanent Village Code of Ordinances. Under this clause, section numbers or letters may be adjusted, and terminology such as 'ordinance' may be updated to 'section,' 'chapter,' or another suitable term to fit the code's structure. The substance of the underlying rules is not changed by this process — only the formatting and labeling are affected.

Compliant operators generally reference the codified version of the article when reviewing their obligations, since section numbers or labels may have been adjusted during the codification process.

For tenants, § 18-1147 signals that the registration and oversight rules established in Ch. 18 Art. XIX are meant to be a lasting, codified part of Sauk Village's municipal law rather than a temporary measure. If a tenant believes a landlord is not complying with the article's requirements, the codified status of these provisions means they can be raised through official village channels or referenced in relevant proceedings. Tenants seeking to understand their rights under this article may find it helpful to consult the current Village Code of Ordinances or a local tenant-rights organization for guidance.
