(A) A violation of § 110.15 of this chapter constitutes a misdemeanor punishable as provided in G.S. § 14-4. Payment of a fine imposed in criminal proceedings pursuant to this section does not relieve a person of his or her liability for taxes imposed under this chapter.

If the offender does not pay the penalty within ten days after he or she has been cited for a violation, the town may attempt to recover the penalty by filing a civil action in the nature of debt. Payment of this civil penalty does not relieve a person of his or her liability for taxes imposed under this chapter.

(E) This chapter may be enforced by any one, all or a combination of the remedies authorized and prescribed by this section.
