($1.), additional fees as listed hereinafter shall be paid annually to defray
the administrative cost of inspections, consultations and servicing of the

Inspection fees shall be set forth from time to time by resolution of
the Board of Commissioners.
The inspection fee shall be equally applicable to eating and drinking

more than six hundred dollars ($600.), together with costs of suit, collectible
in the manner provided by law. Each violation after notice of an offense or
service of a summons shall constitute a distinct and separate offense.
