When written notice of violation of any of the provisions of this Ordinance or violation of or failure to comply with the terms and/or conditions of the grant of a variance or special exception under this Ordinance has been served by the zoning officer on the owner, agent or occupant, contractor or builder, such violation or failure to comply shall be discontinued or remedied immediately.

Any person, partnership or corporation who or which has violated or permitted the violation of the provisions of this Zoning Ordinance shall, upon being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding commenced by the township, pay a judgment of not more than five hundred dollars ($500.00), plus all courts costs, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred by the township as a result thereof. No judgment shall commence or be imposed, levied or payable until the date of the determination of a violation by the district justice. If the defendant neither pays nor timely appeals the judgement, the township may enforce the judgment pursuant to the applicable rules of civil procedure. Each day that a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation, unless the district justice determining that there has been a violation further determines that there was a good faith basis for the person, partnership or corporation violating the ordinance to have believed that there was no such violation, in which event there shall be deemed to have been only one such violation until the fifth day following the date of the determination of a violation by the district justice and thereafter each day that a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation. All judgments, costs and reasonable attorney fees collected for the violation of zoning ordinances shall be paid over to the township.

In case any building, sign or structure is erected, constructed, reconstructed, altered, repaired, converted or maintained, or any building, sign, structure or land is used, or any hedge, tree, shrub or other growth is maintained, in violation of this Ordinance or any of the regulations pursuant thereto or in violation of or failure to comply with the terms and/or conditions of the grant of a variance or special exception under this Ordinance, in addition to other remedies provided by law, any appropriate action or proceeding, whether by legal process or otherwise, may be instituted or taken to prevent such unlawful erection, construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair, conversion, maintenance or use, to restrict, correct or abate such violation, to prevent the occupancy of said building, structure or land, or to prevent any illegal act, conduct, business or use in or about such premises.
