(A) Criminal remedies. Conducting business within this county without having paid the privilege license tax imposed by this chapter or without a valid license issued in accordance with this chapter or without possessing and/or posting a license in compliance with this chapter is a misdemeanor, punishable as provided in G.S. § 105-109. Each day that a person conducts business in violation of this chapter is a separate offense. Payment of a fine imposed in criminal proceedings in accordance with this section does not relieve a person of the liability for taxes imposed under this chapter.
(B) Equitable remedies. In addition to the criminal remedies set forth in division (A) of this section and in compliance with the North Carolina General Statutes, the county may seek an injunction against any person who conducts a business in violation of this chapter.
