In cases where any building or structure is or is intended to be erected, constructed, reconstructed, altered, moved or converted or any building, structure or premises is or is intended to be used in violation of or contrary to the provisions of this chapter, the Community Development Director shall, in addition to other remedies set forth in § 62.23, Wis. Stats., and in this chapter, institute action(s) to enjoin or take any other appropriate action or proceeding to prevent such erection, construction, reconstruction, alteration, conversion or use.

Any person, partnership, firm, or corporation who or which violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction, be subject to a forfeiture of not less than $25 nor more than $1,000 for each offence, plus the cost of prosecution. In default of payment thereof, the violator may be imprisoned in the Kenosha County Jail for a term not to exceed 90 days or until such forfeiture and costs have been paid. Each day that a violation continues to exist shall constitute a separate offense. In any such action, the fact that a permit shall have been issued by any officer or department of the Village shall not constitute a defense, nor shall any error, oversight, or dereliction of duty on the part of any officer or department of the Village constitute a defense. In cases where the above penalty conflicts with any other penalty established by this chapter, the most severe penalty shall apply.
