   B.   After expiration of the period within which judicial review under Administrative Review Law may be sought for a final determination of a code violation, the City may commence a proceeding in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, Jo Daviess County, Illinois for the purpose of obtaining a judgment on the findings, decision, and order. Nothing in this chapter shall prevent the City from the consolidation of multiple findings, decisions, and orders against a person in such a proceeding.
