A.
No
owner or agent of the owner of any land located within the platting
jurisdiction of the City, knowingly or with intent to defraud, may
transfer, sell, agree to sell or negotiate to sell that land by reference
to or by other use of a plat of any purported subdivision of the land
before the plat has been approved by the City Council or the Planning
and Zoning Commission and recorded in the office of the County Recorder,
unless the owner or agent shall disclose in writing that such plat
has not been approved by such Council or Planning and Zoning Commission
and the sale is contingent upon the approval of such plat by such
Council or Planning and Zoning Commission. Any person violating the
provisions of this Chapter shall forfeit and pay to the City a penalty
not to exceed three hundred dollars ($300.00) for each lot transferred
or sold or agreed or negotiated to be sold; and the description by
metes and bounds in the instrument of transfer or other document used
in the process of selling or transferring shall not exempt the transaction
from this penalty. The City may enjoin or vacate the transfer or sale
or agreement by legal action and may recover the penalty in such action.

Any
person violating the provisions of this Chapter is guilty of an ordinance
violation and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not more than
five hundred dollars ($500.00) or by confinement in the County Jail
for not more than three (3) months, or by both such fine and confinement.

after a public hearing has been held, public notice of which shall
have been given in a newspaper of general circulation at least fifteen
(15) days prior to such hearing.
