§ 161-6. Penalties for offenses; enforcement.

A. 

Any person who violates this article, upon conviction thereof, shall be punishable by a fine of not less than $1,000 per day and not more than $2,500 per day or by imprisonment for a term not to exceed 15 days. Each day's continued violation shall constitute a separate additional violation.

B. 

Convictions for a violation of this article shall constitute and affect an immediate revocation of the permit granted hereunder.

C. 

The Building Inspector may suspend the performance of any delivery of fill and also may revoke any permit issued hereunder or under any other provision of law purporting to authorize such delivery of fill for a like period at any time, in the event of an actual or threatened violation of this article. The Building Inspector shall have the further authority to suspend and revoke all other permits at the site when the instant permit is violated or there is a threatened violation.

(1) 

The Building Inspector shall accomplish such suspension and revocation by delivering, personally or by certified mail, a written notice thereof, stating the particular grounds therefor, to the applicant. Thereafter, during the period of such suspension and revocation, no delivery of fill shall be permitted or performed.

(2) 

Any person aggrieved by such suspension and/or revocation may appeal therefrom to the Town Board, which may affirm, modify or reverse the Building Inspector's action or make such other disposition of the appeal which may be consistent with the purposes of this article.

D. 

In addition to the above-provided penalties and punishment and such other remedies as may now or hereafter be provided by law, the Town Board may maintain an action or proceeding in the name of the Town in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel compliance with or to restrain by an injunction the violation of such article and to recover, by appropriate civil remedies, any cost, expense or damage sustained by the Town in consequence of such violation, including an action to enforce the surety bond provided for in this article.
