For any and every violation of the provisions
of this chapter, the owner, developer, agent or applicant, lessee,
tenant or occupant of a mobile home park, where a violation has been
committed or shall exist, and any other person who knowingly commits,
takes part, or assists in any such violation, or who maintains any
such facility where any such violation shall exist, shall, upon conviction
in a summary proceeding brought before a Magisterial District Judge
under the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure, be guilty of a
summary offense and shall be punishable by a fine of not more than
$1,000, plus costs of prosecution. In default of payment thereof,
the defendant may be sentenced to imprisonment for a term not exceeding
90 days for each and every offense, and whenever such person shall
have been notified by the Township in writing or by emergency order
that he is committing a particular violation of this chapter, then
each day such violation shall continue after delivery of such notification
shall constitute a separate offense and be punishable as a separate
offense. Such fines shall be collected as like fines are now by law
collected.
In case any mobile home park is constructed,
reconstructed, altered or added to; any mobile home park operated,
or any other facility maintained, operated or constructed in violation
of this chapter or of any regulations made pursuant thereto, in addition
to other remedies provided by law, any appropriate action or proceeding,
whether by legal process or otherwise, may be instituted or taken
to prevent such unlawful construction, reconstruction, alteration,
addition, operation, occupancy or maintenance, to restrain, correct
or abate such violation, to prevent the occupancy of such land, mobile
homes or structures or to prevent any illegal act in or about the
mobile home park.
In any case where a provision of this chapter
is found to be in conflict with a provision of any zoning, building,
fire, safety, sanitation, or health ordinance or code of the Township
of Darlington, existing on the effective date of this chapter, the
provision which, in the judgment of the Board of Township Supervisors,
establishes the higher standard for the promotion and protection of
the health and safety of the people shall prevail. In any case where
a provision of this chapter is found to be in conflict with a provision
of any other ordinance or code of the Township of Darlington, existing
on the effective date of this chapter which established a lower standard
for the promotion and protection of the health and safety of the people,
the provisions of this chapter shall be deemed to prevail, and such
other ordinances or codes are hereby declared to be repealed to the
extent that they may be found in conflict with this chapter.
