Section 90-120. Enforcement and penalties.
(a) Under this article, if the building official determines that a project is not being carried out in accordance with the approved plan or if any project is being carried out without a required permit, he is authorized to:
(1) Issue written notice to the applicant specifying the nature and location of the alleged noncompliance, including a description of necessary remedial actions.
(2) Issue a stop work order directing the applicant or person in possession of the building permit to cease and desist all or any portion of the work which violates this article, until the remedial work has been completed to the satisfaction of the building official. The applicant shall then bring the project into compliance or be subject to a denial of the certificate of occupancy for the project.
(3) Any order pursuant to subsection (a)(1) or (2) of this section shall become final, unless the person named in the order requests, in writing, by certified mail, a hearing before the building official no later than ten working days after the date such order is served. Failure to act in accordance with the order after receipt of written notice shall be grounds for revocation of all city permits issued for that project which would be affected by or would affect the stormwater management system.
(b) Any person who violates or causes to be violated any section of this article or permits any such violation or fails to comply with any of the requirements of this article shall be punished by a fine equivalent to the cost of having complied with the regulations. Each calendar day when such violations occur shall constitute a separate offense. In addition to any other remedies, the violations of this article may be restrained by injunction, and otherwise abated in any manner provided for by law.
