Clarendon Hills City Zoning Code

ARTICLE 20

17 ENFORCEMENT

20.17.1: ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL

This Chapter is enforced by the Zoning Administrator. The Zoning Administrator may secure the assistance of the Village Attorney to seek an injunction, abatement, or other appropriate actions to enjoin, abate, or stop any violation of this Chapter. At times, the aid of the Police Department may be sought to enforce this Chapter. The property owner charged with the violation may be held responsible for any legal expenses incurred by the Village.

(Ord. 19-10-26)

20.17.2: APPLICATION OF PENALTIES

Any person, firm, or corporation who violates, disobeys, omits, neglects, or refuses to comply with, or who resists the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Chapter, upon conviction, will be fined for each offence. Each day that a violation continues constitutes a separate offense for the purposes of the penalties and remedies available to the Village. The accumulation of penalties for violations, but not the obligation for payment for violations already committed, ceases upon correction of the violation.

(Ord. 19-10-26)

20.17.3: FINES

  1. Each violation, and each day that such violation continues, is subject to a fine as established in the Village Code.
  2. Upon proof of compliance, the Zoning Administrator may recommend to the Village Board reduced accumulated fines. Such recommendation shall be at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator. The violating party may appeal the decision of the Zoning Administrator should he not recommend a reduction in accumulated fines.
