Should the fines or penalties assessed by the state change under KRS 243.480, then the fines or penalties under this chapter shall be adjusted accordingly to mirror the fines or penalties imposed by state law. Payment of all fines shall be made to the City ABC Administrator who shall transmit said payments to the City Finance Department to be deposited in the appropriate designated account.
(B) Any person, firm or corporation who violates any of the provisions of this chapter for which no other penalty is hereby provided, shall for the first offense be fined not less than $100 nor more than $200, or imprisoned in the county jail for not more than six months, or both, and for the second and each subsequent violation, he or she shall be fined not less than $200 nor more than $500, or imprisoned in the county jail for not more than six months or both. The penalties provided for in this division (B) shall be in addition to the revocation or suspension of the offender’s license. If the offender is a corporation, LLC, joint stock company, association or other business organization, or a fiduciary, the principal officer or officers responsible for the violation may be imprisoned.
