Any person who violates any portion of this chapter shall, in a civil enforcement proceeding, pay a fine as set by the Township Supervisors as provided for in the Second Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 66601. This chapter is deemed to be an ordinance related to public health and safety, enacted under authority of the statutes referred to in the preamble hereto and the townships general authority to protect public health, safety and welfare. As such, a penalty of $1,000 shall be assessed as a civil penalty for any violation hereof. Each day a violation continues shall be considered a separate and distinct violation and subject to a separate assessment, until proof of compliance is provided. Not withstanding any provision of this chapter respecting enforcement, the township reserves the right to enforce this chapter through an action for injunction in the Court of Common Pleas of the county pursuant to 53 P.S. § 66601(c.1)(4). In addition to any civil penalty imposed, any person who violates this chapter will be required to pay all court costs and attorney fees accrued by the township.
