Any person who is convicted of violating this Code or an ordinance
within one year of the date of a previous violation of the same provision
of this Code or of the same ordinance and who has paid the fine for
the previous violation shall be subject to an additional fine as a
repeat offender. The additional fine imposed by the Court upon a person
for a repeated offense shall not be less than the minimum or exceed

by ordinance or resolution.
[N.J.S.A. 40:49-5]
Any person convicted of the violation of any provision of this

codes, the Borough shall provide a thirty-day period in which the
owner shall be afforded the opportunity to cure or abate the condition
which is in violation and shall also be afforded an opportunity for
a hearing before a court of competent jurisdiction for an independent
determination concerning the violation. Subsequent to the expiration
of the thirty-day period, a fine greater than $1,250 may be imposed
if a Court has not determined otherwise or, upon reinspection of the
property, it is determined that the abatement has not been substantially
completed.
[N.J.S.A. 40:49-5]
If provided by specific ordinance or in the Code, each and every
day in which a violation of any provision of this Code or any other
ordinance of the Borough of Pompton Lakes exists shall constitute

[New]

jurisdiction, such chapter, section, subsection or paragraph shall,
to the extent that it is not unconstitutional, invalid or inoperative,
