A. Any person who violates or permits a violation of this
chapter, upon being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding,
shall pay a fine of not more than $600, plus all court costs, including reasonable
attorney's fees, incurred by the township in the enforcement of this
chapter. No judgment shall be imposed until the date of the determination
of the violation by the District Justice and/or Court. If the defendant neither
pays nor timely appeals the judgment, the township may enforce the judgment
pursuant to the applicable rules of civil procedure. Each day a violation
exists shall constitute a separate offense. Further, the appropriate officers
or agents of the township are hereby authorized to seek equitable relief,
including injunction, to enforce compliance herewith.
B. The Code Enforcement Officer or other officer of the township authorized to do so by the Board of Supervisors shall determine in each instance whether a violation has occurred. Upon determining that a violation has occurred, the officer shall impose a civil penalty in accordance with the amounts specified in Subsection
A upon the violator. Notice of a violation shall be served upon the violator by registered or certified mail. In the event the register or certified mail is returned unclaimed, such notice shall be served by first class mail.
