Hallsville Violations and Penalties ordinance (§ 515.080)

Chapter 515: Streets, Sidewalks and Other Public Places · Article II. Street Construction Standards

A. The City Administrator, Public Works Superintendent or any other designee of the City of Hallsville shall have the right to stop work on any street found to not be in compliance with this Article and its attachments.

B. The aforementioned stop-work order, once issued and found to be a just cause, shall result in the Board of Aldermen requiring a bond in an amount to be specified by the Board upon consultation with the Superintendent of Public Works, to be deposited with the City. Only then or upon confirmation of specifications being met, shall the stop-work order be lifted and construction be allowed to continue.

C. Violation of this Article in whole or in any part thereof shall result in action being taken and shall result in a penalty of five hundred dollars ($500.00) per day for violation or continued non- compliance. A guilty finding in reference to the violation of this Article does not absolve the developer of the right of the City of Hallsville to require a bond as aforementioned.
