[Amended 12-13-1983 by Ord. No. 83-9[1]]
Any person who violates or permits a violation of this Part 1 shall, upon conviction in a summary proceeding 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 court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Borough in the enforcement proceedings. Upon judgment against any person by summary conviction, or by proceedings by summons on default of the payment of the fine or penalty imposed and the costs, the defendant may be sentenced and committed to the county correctional facility for a period not exceeding 30 days; provided, however, that if the Magisterial District Judge determines that the defendant is without the financial means to pay the fines and costs immediately or in a single remittance, such defendant shall be permitted to pay the fines or costs in installments and over such periods of time as the Magisterial District Judge deems to be just. Each day that such violation exists shall constitute a separate offense, and each section of this Part 1 that is violated shall also constitute a separate offense. In addition to or in lieu of enforcement under this section, the Borough may enforce this Part 1 in equity in the Court of Common Pleas of Lancaster County.
Fines and costs imposed under provisions of
this Part 1 shall be enforceable and recoverable in the manner and
at the time provided by applicable law.
