(A) Any person violating any provisions of this chapter, for which no specific penalty is prescribed, shall be subject to § 10.99.
(B) Any person violating any provision of §§ 110.01 through 110.07 shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine in an amount as set by Council from time to time, or shall be imprisoned in the city lockup (or county jail) not to exceed 90 days, provided, also, any employee of a dispensary willfully violating any provision hereof, or any provision of the laws of state relating to gambling or the sale of intoxicating liquor or beer, shall be discharged.
(E) The Council may suspend for up to 60 days, or revoke, any liquor license, or impose a civil fine in an amount as set by Council from time to time, for each violation upon a finding that the licensee has failed to comply with any applicable statute, regulation, or ordinance relating to alcoholic beverages. In order to establish a greater degree of certainty regarding penalties, the Council will presumptively act as follows, but may depart from this schedule based on the circumstances of a particular violation: upon a first non-willful violation, the Council will suspend any license for not more than ten days and impose a fine in an amount as set by Council from time to time; upon a second violation, the Council may suspend the license for not more than 60 days and impose a fine in an amount as set by Council from time to time; and, upon a third violation, the Council may permanently revoke the license.
