B. 
To the extent that penalties are applied to a franchisee under this section, a franchisee shall not be subject to liquidated damages payable to the municipality for the same violation.
C. 
The municipality may reduce or waive any of the above-listed penalties for good cause shown.
D. 
Before the remedies specified herein may be applied, the municipality shall first notify the franchisee, in writing, of the violation, and the franchisee shall have 30 days, or such additional time as the municipality shall specify, to cure the violation without penalty.
E. 
Pending litigation or any appeal to any regulatory body or court having jurisdiction over a franchisee shall not excuse the franchisee from the performance of its obligations under this chapter or its franchise agreement unless a stay is obtained from a forum of competent jurisdiction.
All remedies under this chapter and the franchise agreement are cumulative unless otherwise expressly stated. The exercise of one remedy shall not foreclose use of another, nor shall the exercise of a remedy or the payment of liquidated damages or penalties relieve a franchisee of its obligations to comply with its franchise. Remedies may be used singly or in combination; in addition, the municipality may exercise any rights it has at law or equity.
Recovery by the municipality of any amounts under insurance, a performance bond or letter of credit, or otherwise, does not limit a franchisee's duty to indemnify the municipality in any way; nor shall such recovery relieve a franchisee of its obligations under a franchise or in any respect prevent the municipality from exercising any other right or remedy it may have.
