Greenwich, Conn., Town Code ch. 4, art. 11 § 4-142
Penalties
Operative Text
(a) Unless otherwise provided, any person who violates any provision of this Article shall be fined not more than one hundred dollars ($100.00) for each violation. (b) It shall be the responsibility of the offender to abate the violation as ordered by the Director. Each day's violation shall be deemed a separate offense.
Greenwich Town Code ch. 4, art. 11 § 4-142 establishes the penalty structure for violations of Article 11. A person found in violation may be fined up to $100 for each separate offense, and because every day a violation continues counts as its own offense, fines can accumulate over time. The person responsible for the violation is also required to correct it as directed by the Director.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Greenwich Town Code ch. 4, art. 11 § 4-142, compliant property operators address any cited Article 11 violation promptly and follow any abatement order issued by the Director. Because each day of non-compliance is treated as a separate offense, operators who act quickly to resolve a cited condition limit their exposure to the per-day fine structure. Maintaining records of corrective actions taken can help demonstrate timely compliance.
