of the land by metes and bounds in the instrument of transferring
of land shall not exempt the transaction from such penalties.

of this chapter shall be deemed guilty of a violation of this chapter
and state law and, upon conviction, shall be punished by a fine of
not less than $100. Also, all City-provided utilities and services
shall be withheld or withdrawn until such time as this chapter is
complied with.
