A.
Any person, partnership or corporation who or which has violated
or permitted the violation of the provisions of this chapter shall,
upon being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding
commenced by the Borough of Zelienople, pay a judgment of not less
than $50 nor more than $500, plus all court costs, including reasonable
attorney fees incurred by the Borough as a result thereof. No judgment
shall commence or be imposed, levied or payable until the date of
the determination of a violation by the District Justice. If the defendant
neither pays nor timely appeals the judgment, the Borough may enforce
the judgment pursuant to the applicable rules of civil procedure.
B.
Each day that a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation,
unless the District Justice, determining that there has been a violation,
further determines that there was a good-faith basis for the person,
partnership or corporation violating the Ordinance to have believed
that there was no such violation, in which event there shall be deemed
to have been only one such violation until the fifth day following
the date of the determination of a violation by the District Justice
and thereafter each day that violation continues shall constitute
a separate violation. All judgment costs and reasonable attorney fees
collected for the violation of zoning ordinances shall be paid over
to the Borough of Zelienople.
