VIOLATION AND PENALTIES.

   1.   Enforcement. The City Council shall enforce the provisions of this chapter through the proper legal channels, but may delegate the duty of administering it to such officials of the City as it may deem proper. Any person objecting to the ruling of any official on the administering of the provisions of this law shall have the right to appeal to the Board of Adjustment.
   2.   Violation and Penalties. In case any building is or is proposed to be located, erected, constructed, reconstructed, enlarged, changed, maintained or used, or any land is or is proposed to be used in violation of this chapter or any amendment or supplement thereto, the City or adjacent or neighboring property owners who would be specially damaged by such violation, in addition to other remedies provided by law, may institute injunction, mandamus, abatement or any other appropriate actions or proceedings to prevent, enjoin, abate or remove such lawful location, erection, construction, reconstruction, enlargement, change, maintenance or use. 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, is guilty of a misdemeanor. Each day that a violation is permitted to exist constitutes a separate offense.
