One registration statement must be filed for each vacant building of the owner or mortgagee so registering and a separate fee paid therefor. The owner or mortgagee of the vacant or abandoned real property as of the yearly anniversary date of the initial registration filing shall be responsible for the payment of the nonrefundable registration fee.
