§ 37-7. Penalties.

Any person who violates or participates with another in a violation of any provision of this chapter is responsible for a municipal civil infraction and subject to the provisions of section 1-13 as a municipal civil infraction, including any costs which may be imposed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each separate act in violation of this chapter (e.g., launching and retrieving are separate acts) shall be separate offenses. The service of citations or municipal civil infractions under this chapter may be served by personal delivery, by first class mail, or by affixing the citation to the motor vehicle, watercraft, or trailer in violation of this chapter. The township may also seek from a court of competent jurisdiction other remedies to prevent future violations and such other remedies as provided by section 1-13 of the Code.

In addition to the sanctions provided in this section for the violation of this chapter, any person who is determined to be responsible for a municipal civil infraction because of any damage that the person has caused to the Dunton Park boat launch ramp area shall reimburse the township for the damage for which the person is responsible. If a person is responsible for an act of vandalism (including but not limited to graffiti), that person shall reimburse the township for up to three times the amount of damages, as determined by the court.
