Upon the issuance of a citation by the zoning enforcement officer or his or her agent, the time period for correction of the violation cited in such citation shall be in accordance with the following requirements:
(A) For violations that involve the illegal use of a property by a non-structural object such as a sign, vehicle, junk and the like, compliance with the regulations shall be within 48 hours of issuance of the citation.
(B) For violations that involve the illegal use of a property by the conduct of an activity, which is not permitted, compliance with the regulations shall be within 48 hours of issuance of the citation.
(C) For violations that involve the illegal placement of a structure, all work on the structure shall immediately cease. Further, all violations not included in divisions (A) and (B) of this section shall be brought in compliance with the zoning regulations within 48 hours of the issuance of the citation, or within such other time period as designated in writing by the zoning enforcement officer or his or her agent.
(D) Any violation for which a citation is issued and which is not corrected within the time period allowed in this section, shall be a new violation of the zoning regulations, and every 24-hour period thereafter in which the violation is not corrected shall constitute a new violation. For repeated violations of the same section of the zoning regulations by the same person, the zoning enforcement officer shall not be required to provide the violator with another written notice or correction period, and may immediately issue the citations and fines permitted by this chapter.
(E) The zoning enforcement officer shall not be responsible for a daily re-inspection; rather the person to whom the citation has been issued shall be responsible for reporting subsequent compliance to the zoning enforcement officer or his or her agent. The zoning enforcement officer, or his or her agent, shall re-inspect to confirm compliance within 24 hours of such report.
