(A) The penalties amend all specific or general penalty sections of the Elkhart Code only as they
relate to offenses filed with the Ordinance Violations Bureau and only as they relate to the specific ordinances or offenses adopted in § 38.03.
(B) The delineation of penalties, maximum or otherwise, as set forth in § 38.03 relates only to ordinance violations that the enforcement authority chooses to file with the Ordinance Violations Bureau, and which are then subject to admission before the Violations Clerk.
(C) However, such delineation of penalties in § 38.03 is in no way intended to limit the imposition of any civil penalty available as set forth in any penalty section of the Elkhart Code, if the violation is filed other than in the Ordinance Violations Bureau. In those cases, all other penalties and manner of enforcing ordinances shall remain, and the penalty provisions set forth in this section shall have no effect whatsoever on any penalty section of the Elkhart Code in cases that are not filed in the Ordinance Violations Bureau.
