Casey — Title 15 Ch. 15.28 Fair Housing § 15.28.040
Penalty
Operative Text
Any person convicted of violating any of the provisions of this ordinance shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred dollars nor more than fifteen hundred dollars. Each day a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation. This section shall in no way abrogate or impair the right of the city of Casey, Illinois, to specifically enforce, by any legal means, any of the provisions of this ordinance.
Section 15.28.040 of Casey's Fair Housing ordinance establishes that anyone found guilty of violating the ordinance's provisions faces a fine ranging from $100 to $1,500. Importantly, each day that a violation persists is treated as a distinct, separate offense, meaning fines can accumulate over time. The provision also preserves the City of Casey, Illinois's ability to pursue additional legal remedies beyond the imposition of fines.
