Princeville — Title 15 Ch. 15.24 Property Maintenance and Occupancy Code § 15.24.150
Violation; Penalty
Operative Text
Any person, firm, corporation, organization, or other entity found to be in violation of any provision of Chapter 15.24 of the Princeville Village Code shall be fined in an amount not less than one hundred dollars ($100.00) and not more than seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00), plus attorney's fees and court costs. Every day a violation of a provision of Chapter 15.24 of the Princeville Village Code continues to exist shall constitute a new and separate violation, and in the case of a continuing violation, the Village shall be entitled to day-for-day fines.
Section 15.24.150 of the Princeville Village Code establishes financial penalties for anyone—individual, business, or organization—found to have violated any provision of Chapter 15.24, the Property Maintenance and Occupancy Code. Fines range from $100 to $750 per violation, and attorney's fees and court costs may also be assessed. Critically, each day a violation persists is treated as a separate, independent violation, meaning day-by-day fines can accumulate for ongoing noncompliance.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 15.24.150, property owners and managers operating in Princeville are generally expected to maintain continuous compliance with every provision of Chapter 15.24, since each calendar day a violation remains unresolved can trigger a fresh $100–$750 fine plus attorney's fees and court costs. Compliant operators typically conduct regular property inspections, address identified deficiencies promptly, and document corrective actions to demonstrate that violations were remedied as quickly as possible. Given the day-per-day fine structure, swift remediation is a standard practice among operators seeking to limit cumulative exposure.
