Whenever a person is charged with the violation of an enforcement provision and either compromises and settles the complaint pursuant to § 32.13, or is found guilty by a court in accordance with § 32.16, the Clerk-Treasurer shall make and keep a record of the compromise or conviction, organized for reference by name of the offender and according to any other means of identification which the Clerk-Treasurer deems dispensable for the purpose of administering § 32.12. The record constitutes presumptive evidence of guilt of any violation whether or not the offender has made any admission to a violation for purposes of fixing a fine pursuant to § 32.12, and no offender shall be permitted to plead for a lesser fine than any subsequently requested on the advent of a repeat violation on the grounds that he or she was not in fact guilty of any prior offense which he or she has compromised or of which he or she has had judgment entered against him or her by a court.
