A. Any landlord or rental manager that collects rental income from a tenant of a dwelling unit without a crime-free residential rental license shall be fined in an amount equivalent to the rental income collected. Each time rental income is collected shall constitute a new and separate violation.
B. Any person found in violation of any other provision of this chapter shall be fined as set forth in section 1-4-1 of this Code. Each day a violation occurs or is permitted to continue shall constitute a new and separate offense. Violations of this chapter that concern multiple-dwelling units shall constitute separate offenses as to those dwelling units and shall not be considered a single violation simply because the dwelling units are located in the same building or subject to the same crime-free residential rental license.
C. Violations of this chapter may be administered through the provisions of title 1, chapter 4, article A of this Code, or by any other means permitted by law. Nothing in this chapter shall be interpreted to limit the remedies or penalties available to the City.
D. Any hearing officer or judge may require a landlord or rental manager found to be in violation of the provisions of this chapter to attend a crime-free housing seminar in addition to any fines imposed.
