Code of Mosheim

Mosheim
Title 18 : Water and Sewers
Chapter 2 : General Wastewater Regulations

18-252 : Administrative penalties.

  1. When the mayor finds that a user has violated, or continues to violate, any provision of this chapter, an individual wastewater discharge permit, or order issued hereunder or any other pretreatment standard or requirement, the mayor may issue a penalty to user per the Town of Mosheim's Enforcement Response Plan.
  2. Unpaid charges and penalties shall, after sixty (60) calendar days, be assessed interest at a rate thereafter at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month. A lien against the user's property may be sought for unpaid charges and penalties.
  3. Users desiring to dispute such penalties must file a written request for the mayor to reconsider the penalty along with full payment of the penalty amount within ten (10) days of being notified of the penalty. Where a request has merit, the mayor may convene a hearing on the matter. In the event the user's appeal is successful, the payment, together with any interest accruing thereto, shall be returned to the user. The mayor may add the costs of preparing administrative enforcement actions, such as notices and orders, to the penalty.
  4. Issuance of an administrative penalty shall not be a bar against, or a prerequisite for, taking any other, action against the user. (Ord. #221, April 2010)
