A. Any person who violates any provision of this code, any condition of approval of a permit or entitlement, any condition or provision of any environmental review, or any term or condition of any city agreement may be issued an administrative citation by an enforcement officer as provided in this chapter. A violation of this code includes, but is not limited to, all violations of this code, and the failure to comply with any condition imposed on any permit or entitlement, condition of environmental review, or city agreement issued or approved pursuant to this code. Prior to issuing an administrative citation, if the violation pertains to building, plumbing, electrical, or other similar structural or zoning issues that do not create an immediate danger to health and safety, then the responsible person shall be issued a warning only on the first violation. The warning will advise the responsible person of the nature of the violation and the date upon which the violation shall be corrected. The responsible person will be given fifteen (15) calendar days to correct the violation. The enforcement officer may, but is not required to, extend the time specified for correction of the violation if, in the enforcement officer's sole and reasonable discretion, it is determined that the responsible person is making substantial progress in attempting to fully correct the violation. If the violation is not corrected within that time period specified by the enforcement officer, an administrative citation with a fine shall be issued.
B. A continuing violation of any provision of this code, condition of a permit or entitlement, condition or provision of environmental review, or term or condition of any city agreement constitutes a separate and distinct violation each and every day that the violation exists.
C. Each code provision, condition of a permit or entitlement, condition or provision of environmental review, or term or condition of any city agreement violated is subject to the fine schedule in section 1.22.060 of this chapter and shall be payable directly to the city of Redlands.
D. If more than one responsible party exists, the enforcement officer may issue an administrative citation to any, all, or any combination of, responsible parties. (Ord. 2792, 2013)
