Any person who violates any provision of this article shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $20 and costs. Provided: it shall be the duty of the police officers and of parking enforcement personnel of the Borough of Folcroft to report to the appropriate official all violations of any provision of this article, indicating, in each case: the section violated; the license number of the vehicle involved in the violation; the location where the violation took place; and any other facts that might be necessary in order to secure a clear understanding of the circumstances attending the violation.

Should the offender fail to pay the fine or challenge the notice of violation, the Police Department will rescind it and file a nontraffic citation with the Borough Magisterial District Judge, resulting in the imposition of fines as prescribed in the Motor Vehicle Code.
