Penalties for offenses
Operative Text
Any person violating or resisting the enforcement of any provision of this chapter shall be punishable by a fine of not more than $25 or by imprisonment for not more than five days or both. Each day that such violation continues shall constitute a separate offense. The term "person" as used in this section shall include the owner, occupant, mortgagee or vendee in possession, assignee of rents, receiver, executor, trustee, lessee, agent or any other person directly or indirectly in control of a building or part thereof. In addition to other remedies, the Village of LeRoy may institute appropriate action to restrain, prevent, enjoin, abate, correct or remove any violation and to take such other legal action as is necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of this chapter. The remedies provided for herein shall be cumulative and exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies provided by law, and all remedies may be pursued concurrently or consecutively, and the pursuit of any remedy shall not be construed as an election or the waiver of the right to pursue any and all of the others.
Section 128-73 of LeRoy Village's Code of Ordinances establishes penalties for violating or resisting enforcement of Chapter 128, which governs buildings and related matters. Violations can result in a fine of up to $25, imprisonment of up to five days, or both, with each day of continued noncompliance treated as a separate offense. The Village of LeRoy may also pursue injunctive or other legal remedies alongside these penalties, and all available remedies can be used simultaneously or in sequence.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 128-73, a broad range of parties with control over a building — including owners, lessees, agents, and receivers — can be held responsible for violations of Chapter 128. Compliant operators generally address any identified code deficiencies promptly, since each day a violation persists is counted as a new offense, multiplying potential fines. Keeping records of corrective actions taken in response to any notices can help demonstrate ongoing good-faith compliance with the chapter's requirements.
