(A) If the civil penalty is not paid within ten days after demand for payment by the city employee, the city may initiate a civil action in the nature of a debt collection to recover civil penalties which may have previously accrued. Such action shall stop further civil penalties from accruing if the violation has been corrected.
(B) Civil penalties are an additional remedy for code enforcement. In addition thereto, all remedies allowed in North Carolina General Statutes and this Code may also be pursued by the city at the same time without waiving the civil penalties authorized in this chapter.
