[Adopted 5-4-1992 by Ord. No. 121]
No water shall be provided for internal or external use to any residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, recreational, governmental or public building or structure of any kind which is constructed or remodeled and in which plumbing, water piping or water fixtures are to be installed, extended or altered in any way and for which construction a permit is required to be obtained from Bern Township unless the new, extended or altered plumbing, water piping and other water using fixtures therein conform to the requirements and standards of §
178-2 of this article. The provisions of this article shall apply to any such building or structure for which such a building permit is issued, or would otherwise be required to be issued but for such an exemption, beginning five days after adoption of this article.
The Board of Supervisors may, from time to time, modify, add to or remove
from the standards and restrictions herein.
Any person who violates or permits a violation of this article, upon
being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding, shall pay a
fine of not more than $600, plus all court costs, including reasonable attorney's
fees, incurred by the township in the enforcement of this article. No judgment
shall be imposed until the date of the determination of the violation by the
District Justice and/or Court. If the defendant neither pays nor timely appeals
the judgment, the township may enforce the judgment pursuant to the applicable
rules of civil procedure. Each day a violation exists shall constitute a separate
offense. Further, the appropriate officers or agents of the township are hereby
authorized to seek equitable relief, including injunction, to enforce compliance
herewith.
