Any person violating any of the provisions of this ordinance shall, upon a conviction be fined a sum not exceeding $2,000.00; and each and every day that the provisions of this ordinance are violated shall constitute a separate and distinct offense. In addition to the said penalty provided for, the right is hereby conferred and extended upon any property owner owning property in any district, where such property owner may be affected or invaded, by violation of the terms of the ordinance, to bring suit in such court or courts having jurisdiction hereof and obtain such remedies as may be available at law and in equity in the protection of the rights of such property owners.

Saving Clause: If any section, subsection, sentence[,] clause, or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance.

All rights or remedies of the City are expressly saved as to any and all violations of previous zoning ordinances and amendments.

To such violations, the City and Courts shall have all the powers that existed prior to the effective date of this ordinance. All existing violations of previous zoning regulations shall not become legal nonconforming uses under this ordinance in the same manner that violations of prior zoning ordinances, amendments, and regulations.
