is commenced on any project prior to the issuance of a plumbing permit,
the fees for the acquisition of a permit shall be doubled.

not less than $300 or more than $1,000, together with the costs of
prosecution and any fee or fees, or be imprisoned for a period not
to exceed 30 days, or both. Each day that a violation continues after
due notice has been served shall be deemed a separate offense.

108.5 Stop-work orders. This section shall be revised
to read in its entirety as follows:

be in writing and shall be given to the owner of the property or to
the owner's agent or to the person doing the work. The notice
shall state the conditions under which work is authorized to resume.
Where an emergency exists, the Code Official shall not be required
to give a written notice prior to stopping the work. Any person who
shall continue any work on the system after having been served with
a stop-work order, except such work as that person is directed to
perform to remove a violation or unsafe condition, shall be liable
to a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000.
