West Seneca, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 80 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 80-6
Penalties for offenses
Operative Text
Any person or persons, association or corporation committing an offense against this chapter or any section or provision thereof is guilty of a violation punishable by a fine not exceeding two hundred fifty dollars ($250.) or imprisonment for a period not exceeding fifteen (15) days for each such offense, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
West Seneca, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 80 § 80-6 establishes that any individual, group, or corporate entity that violates any part of Chapter 80 may face a fine of up to $250, a jail term of up to 15 days, or both, for each separate offense committed. The rule applies broadly to all persons and entities subject to the chapter, not just a single category of actor. Each distinct violation is treated as its own offense, meaning multiple infractions can each carry their own penalty.
