Any person who violates, disobeys, omits, neglects or refuses to comply with any of the provisions of this chapter shall be subject to a fine in accordance with the penalty provisions of this code. There may be times when the village will incur delay or other costs, including third party claims, because the utility will not or cannot perform its duties under its permit and this chapter. Unless the utility shows that another allocation of the cost of undertaking the requested action is appropriate, the utility shall bear the village's damages and its costs of installing, maintaining, modifying, relocating or removing the facility that is the subject of the permit. No other administrative agency or commission may review or overrule a permit-related cost apportionment of the village. Sanctions may be imposed upon a utility which does not pay the costs apportioned to it.
