an infraction, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine not to
exceed one hundred dollars for a first violation, two hundred dollars for a
second violation within one year, and five hundred dollars for each additional
violation within one year. Every day that any such violation continues shall
constitute a separate offense.

person for violating any provision of this article or for failure to secure a

permit fee due and unpaid at the time of such conviction or punishment, nor
shall payment of any permit fee bar a criminal prosecution for a violation of
any provision of this article. All remedies shall be cumulative and the use of
one or more remedies by the city shall not bar the use of any other remedy for
the purpose of enforcing the provisions of this article. The amount of any
permit fee due and owing shall be deemed a debt to the city. An action may be
commenced in the name of the city in any court of competent jurisdiction for the
amount of any delinquent permit fee. All permit fees shall be deemed delinquent
thirty days from the date they are due and payable.
(c) A permittee shall be
required to reimburse the city for the cost of the Woodland police department
manpower and emergency equipment response to excessive false alarms as provided
in this article. The amount of and criteria for such reimbursement shall be
adopted by resolution of the city council and notification of the charges
thereof to the permittee shall be made within ten days from the actuation of the
excessive false alarm. (Ord. No. 1188, § 2 (part); Ord. No. 1311, §
