A.
Any person, firm, or corporation that violates any provision of these
regulations or amendments shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and on
conviction shall be fined not more than $500. Each day that violation
of these regulations is in effect constitutes a separate offense and
is subject to additional fines of not more than $500 per day.
B.
Any person who fails to give full and correct information when applying
for a permit shall be subject to a fine of no more than $100, and
the court, in its discretion, may require that the violation be corrected
to comply with the UDC. Any building permit issued upon an incomplete
application, regardless of the intent of the applicant, shall be wholly
void as though said permit had never been issued, and any construction
based upon or resulting from such permit shall be deemed to be construction
without a permit.
C.
Other lawful action. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the City
from taking such other lawful action as is necessary to prevent or
remedy any violation of the UDC.
D.
The court having jurisdiction, in its discretion, may require that
the structure be removed or altered to comply with the provisions
of the UDC. Any court having jurisdiction of misdemeanor cases shall
have jurisdiction to try such offenders and, upon conviction, to fine
them for each offense or violation.
No building erected or structurally altered shall be used, occupied,
or changed in use until a certificate of occupancy and compliance
is issued by the Administrative Official, stating that the building
or proposed use of the building or premises complies with the building
laws and provisions of this code. The Administrative Official shall
keep a record of all certificates of occupancy and compliance. The
Administrative Official may revoke a certificate of occupancy and
compliance when it is found that the building or land does not conform
to the use or condition, if any, in the certificate. Each day a use
continues after revocation of the certificate shall constitute a separate
offense and shall be punished as provided therein.
