Failure of a master plumber to remedy any defective work or refusal to open any walls, floors or ditches as required by the Plumbing Inspector, after written notice, shall result in no further permits being issued to the plumber until such requirements are corrected or met.
Any person who shall violate a provision of this code or shall fail to comply with any of the requirements thereof or who erects, constructs, alters or repairs any plumbing in violation of an approved plan or directive of the Code Official, or of a permit or certificate issued under the provisions of this code shall be liable for a civil offense, and upon a judicial finding of said violation shall be liable for a fine of not more than $500 and, in addition, shall pay all costs and expenses associated with the County's abatement of said violation as well as any and all fair and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred as a result of said abatement efforts. Each day that a violation continues shall be deemed a separate offense. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the County from taking such other lawful action as is necessary to prevent or remedy any violation.
