A. 
If, before final approval has been granted, any person transfers or sells or agrees to transfer or sell, except pursuant to an agreement expressly conditioned on final subdivision approval, as owner or agent, any land which forms a part of a subdivision for which municipal approval is required by ordinance pursuant to this chapter, such person shall be subject to a penalty not to exceed $1,000, and each lot disposition so made may be deemed a separate violation in Municipal Court.
B. 
In addition to the foregoing, the township may institute and maintain a civil action:
(1) 
For injunctive relief; and
(2) 
To set aside and invalidate any conveyance made pursuant to such a contract of sale if a certificate of compliance has not been issued.
C. 
In any such action, the transferee, purchaser or grantee shall be entitled to a lien upon the portion of the land from which the subdivision was made that remains in the possession of the developer or his or her assigns or successors to secure the return of any deposits made or purchase price paid and also a reasonable search fee, survey expense and title closing expense, if any. Any such action must be brought within two years after the date of the recording of the instrument of transfer, sale or conveyance of said land or within six years, if unrecorded.
A. 
In case any building or structure is erected, constructed, altered, repaired, converted or maintained or any building, structure or land is used in violation of the Knowlton Township Ordinances or other regulation made under authority conferred hereby, the proper local authorities of the township or any interested party, in addition to other remedies, may institute any appropriate action or proceedings to prevent such unlawful erection, construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair, conversion, maintenance or use, to restrain, correct or abate such violation, to prevent the occupancy of the building, structure or land or to prevent any illegal act, conduct of business or use in or about such premises.

Any person, firm or corporation who or which violates, disobeys, omits, neglects or refuses to comply with or who or which resists the enforcement of the provisions of this chapter or any order, decision or determination by the Board of Adjustment or Planning Board and who or which refuses to abate the violation within five days after written notice has been served upon him or her or it by registered mail or by personal service shall, for each and every violation, be subject to a fine of not more than $1,000.
