[Amended 10-20-1986 by Ord. No. 86-16]
If before final subdivision approval has been granted any person transfers or sells or agrees to sell, except pursuant to an agreement expressly conditioned on final subdivision approval, as owner or agent, any land which forms a part of a subdivision for which Borough approval is required, such person shall be subject to a penalty not to exceed $1,000. Each lot disposition shall be deemed a separate violation.
In addition to the foregoing, the Borough of Wood-Ridge may institute and maintain a civil action:
A. 
For injunctive relief; and
B. 
To set aside and invalidate any conveyance made pursuant to such a contract of sale if a certificate of compliance has not been issued in accordance with law by the Borough.
In any action, the transferee, purchaser or grantee is entitled to a lien upon the portion of the land from which the subdivision was made that remains in the possession of the developer or his assigns or successors to secure the return of any deposits made or purchase price paid, and also a reasonable search fee, survey expense and title closing expense, if any. Any such action must be brought within two years after the date of the recording of the instrument of transfer, sale or conveyance of said land or within six years, if unrecorded.
[Amended 10-20-1986 by Ord. No. 86-16[1]]
Any person, firm or corporation violating any of the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction, be punishable as set forth in Chapter 1, General Provisions, Article II. Each day that a violation occurs or is committed may constitute a separate offense if the facts so warrant.
