A.Â
The Mayor of Schwenksville, Code Enforcement Officer or person designated by Borough Council has the authority to enforce Article V by summary proceedings brought before the District Justice or other authority of appropriate jurisdiction by issuance of a citation. Upon summary conviction, any person, owner or operator found to have violated Article V, § 163-22, hereof shall be sentenced to pay a fine of $50 plus the costs of prosecution and, upon failure to pay said fine and costs, to suffer imprisonment for a period not to exceed 90 days.
In any proceeding for a violation of the provisions of this
article, evidence of the defendant's being the registered owner of
the motor vehicle in question shall be prima facie evidence of responsibility
and liability for the provisions and penalties of this article; provided,
however, that in any proceeding, testimony by or on behalf of the
registered owner that he did not violate the provisions hereof and
naming the person who did shall be sufficient to overcome and remove
the presumption.
