A "violation" includes any act which is prohibited by any ordinance or any omission or failure to where the act is required by any ordinance. Each act of violation and each day on which any violation of any ordinance continues constitutes a separate offense and shall be subject to penalties or sanctions as a separate offense. In addition to any remedies available at law, the village may bring an action for an injunction or other process against a person to restrain, prevent, or abate any violation of the ordinance. The penalty or sanction shall be in addition to the abatement of the violating condition, any injunctive relief, revocation of any permit or license, or other process. The penalties and sanctions provided by this section, unless another penalty or sanction as expressly provided, shall apply to the amendment of any section of this Code whether or not such penalty or sanction is enacted in the amendatory ordinance.
