In the event there is an extension of the building permit due to a delay in construction completion at the end of six (6) months there shall be no fine and the grace period for construction shall extend another six (6) months.

Should construction or demolition not be completed at the conclusion of the six (6) month period of fine imposition, the town shall have the right hereunder to take all appropriate legal action to force demolition and clearing of the property or to implement demolition and clearing on the property with all cost associated therewith to the town imposed as a lien upon the property.
