A. The City Manager shall make such rules and interpretation of the terms of this chapter not inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter as may be necessary and reasonable. The enforcement official for this chapter shall be the City Manager or his/her designee, designated entity, legal counsel, or combination thereof.

B. Violation of any provision of this chapter shall constitute grounds for issuance of a notice of violation and assessment of a fine by the City’s code enforcement officer or his/her designee. Enforcement actions under this chapter are subject to the issuance of an administrative citation and assessment of a fine. The City’s procedures on imposition of administrative fines, Chapter 1.15, are hereby incorporated in their entirety, as modified from time to time, and shall govern the imposition, enforcement, collection, and review of administrative citations issued to enforce this chapter and any rule or regulation adopted pursuant to this chapter, except as otherwise indicated.

C. The City may also use all other remedies allowed by law including Chapter 1.14, Administrative Remedies for Code Violations; Chapter 8.12, Nuisance Abatement; and/or any successor or future related section of this code, and also including civil action or prosecution as a misdemeanor or infraction. The City may pursue civil actions in the California courts to seek recovery of unpaid administrative citations, fines, and costs including attorneys’ fees. The City may choose to delay court action until such time as a sufficiently large number of violations, or cumulative size of violations, exist such that court action is a reasonable use of City staff and resources. A violation of any provision of this chapter shall constitute an infraction and a public nuisance. Remedies are cumulative and nonexclusive. Each separate day or any portion thereof on which a violation occurs shall be deemed to constitute a separate punishable offense. (Ord. 2022-03 § 2, 2022.)
