Any person who, after being given a notice of violation pursuant to Section 11.6.1, does not comply with this Ordinance within the time period set forth in the notice of violation, and who continues such violation, or who violates a stop work order, shall be subject to the penalties and remedies set forth in Section 11.6. The following citation procedure shall be used to enforce the provisions of this Ordinance except that the assessment procedure for violations of Section 14.4 are set forth in Section 11.4.3.
(A) Citation for Violation
The Director shall serve a written citation by any of the methods specified in Section 11.6.1.
(B) Content of Citation
The citation shall again describe the nature of the violation and any actions that the alleged violator must take to cure or correct the violation, and shall specify the amount of any civil penalty that shall be levied against the alleged violator.
(C) Corrective Action Required
The civil penalty shall be paid and the violation shall be cured or corrected, within seventy-two (72) hours of receipt of the citation by the alleged violator, or such other time period, not to exceed thirty (30) days, as the citation may specify.
(D) Action for Recovery of Penalty
If payment is not made, or the violation is not cured or corrected, within that time, then the matter shall be referred to the Town Attorney for institution of a civil action in the name of the Town, in a court of competent jurisdiction, for recovery of the penalty. Any sums recovered in such actions shall be used to carry out the purposes and requirements of this Ordinance. Additionally, if any person against whom a civil penalty has been finally assessed under this Ordinance seeks a Certificate of Occupancy; an environmental, grading or building permit; a special use permit; or final approval of any plat, subdivision plan, site plan or erosion control plan, such Certificate of Occupancy, permit or final approval may not be granted until such time as the civil penalty has been paid or arrangements satisfactory to the Town have been made providing for its payment.
