This chapter is enacted to protect the health, safety and welfare
of the residents of the Borough of Port Allegany and for the prevention
of fires, as well as to eliminate nuisances and hazards to health
caused by smoke, cinders and ashes.
Any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this chapter
or who shall fail to comply herewith shall, upon conviction before
a District Magistrate, be guilty of a summary offense and shall be
fined in an amount to be set by the Court, plus costs of prosecution
pursuant to law. Each day a violation occurs shall constitute a separate
offense. In the event the fine and costs are not paid, the defendant
shall be sentenced to serve not more than 30 days in the McKean County
Jail. The continuation of such violation for each successive day shall
constitute a separate offense, and the person or persons allowing
or permitting the continuation of the violation may be punished as
provided above for each separate offense.
