(A) Each license tax prescribed by this chapter shall be increased 5% for each month or fraction thereof during which such license tax remains unpaid after the same becomes due and payable; provided, however, such penalty shall not be less than any minimum nor more than any maximum penalty established by state law. No license shall be issued until the license tax plus the penalty has been paid. The addition of the 5% per monthly penalty on the amount of the license tax shall not exempt the delinquent from the penalties herein prescribed for failure to obtain a license or any other applicable violation of the provision of the code, state law, or town regulations, rules, or ordinance.
(2003 Code, § 15-108)
(B) Any person violating any provisions of §§ 110.60 through 110.62 may be subject to an enforcement action brought by the town under G.S. §§ 160A-175(d) and (e) for an appropriate equitable remedy, including, but not limited to, a mandatory or prohibitory injunction commanding the defendant to correct the conduct prohibited under §§ 110.60 through 110.62. A violation of §§ 110.60 through 110.62 shall not constitute a misdemeanor or infraction. Sections §§ 110.60 through 110.62 are not intended to limit the remedies available to any person under state or federal law.
