§ 154.99 PENALTY.
   (A)   Failure to comply with the requirements of a permit or conditions of a variance resolution shall be deemed a violation of this chapter.
   (B)   Upon due investigation, the Building and Zoning Administrator or the village’s designated representative shall notify the owner in writing of the violation.
      (1)   If an owner of property subject to the regulations of this chapter fails to correct the violation within ten days of receipt of notice:
         (a)   The village may make application to the circuit court for an injunction requiring conformance with this chapter or pursue other remedies as the court deems necessary to secure compliance with the ordinance;
         (b)   The village may record a notice of violation on the title to the property; and/or
         (c)   Any person who violates this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined not less than $50 nor more than $1,000 for each offense. A separate offense shall be deemed committed for each day during or upon which a violation occurs or continues.
      (2)   The Building and Zoning Administrator or the village’s designated representative shall inform the owner that any violation is considered a willful act to increase flood damages and, therefore, may cause coverage by a standard flood insurance policy to be suspended.
         (a)   The Building and Zoning Administrator or the village’s designated representative is authorized to issue an order requiring the suspension of the subject development. The stop-work order shall be in writing, indicate the reason for the issuance, and order the action, if necessary to resolve the circumstances requiring the stop-work order. The stop-work order constitutes a suspension of the permit.
         (b)   No site development permit shall be permanently suspended or revoked until a hearing is held by the Board of Appeals. Written notice of the hearing shall be served on the permittee and shall state:
            1.   The grounds for complaint or reasons for suspension or revocation; and
               2.   The time and place of the hearing. At the hearing, the permittee shall be given an opportunity to present evidence on his or her behalf. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Board of Appeals shall determine whether the permit shall be suspended or revoked.
