In addition to the penalties provided for in Chapter 1.16, the City Attorney may bring civil suit or other action to enforce any provision or section of the Sand City Municipal Code, enjoin or prevent any violation of the Sand City Municipal Code or abate any public nuisance as defined or declared by the Sand City Municipal Code.
(Ord. 06-01)
Any remedies available to the City in a civil action are in
addition to any other remedies available to the City under the Sand
City Municipal Code, City ordinances and state or federal law, and
do not replace or supplant any such other remedy but are cumulative
thereto.
(Ord. 06-01; Ord. 17-04 §10)
In any action where the City seeks recovery of its costs and
attorneys' fees, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from the losing party its reasonable costs including but not limited
to attorneys' fees, the costs of investigation, court costs and the
costs of monitoring compliance with any order or judgment entered
in such an action. Upon entry of a second or subsequent civil or criminal
judgment within a two year period for abatement of a public nuisance,
the court may order the property owner to pay treble the costs of
abatement, except as otherwise provided by State law.
(Ord. 06-01)
