TITLE 10. REGULATION OF INDIVIDUALCONDUCT AND ACTIVITY
CHAPTER 10-1800. VICARIOUS LIABILITY FOR STUDENT CONDUCT
§10-1803. Penalties.
(1) The penalty for liability under this Chapter shall be
a fine not to exceed three hundred dollars ($300). Any person authorized to
enforce ordinances who becomes aware of a violation of Chapter 10-400, Chapter
10-500, 10-600 or 10-700 by a student in an Educational Housing District shall
serve upon one or more responsible party a notice of violation of this Chapter.
The amount that may be paid by the responsible party to admit the violation and
waive appearance in municipal court shall be such amount as is otherwise
provided by this Code for payment to avoid further penalty in connection with
the violation at issue.
(2) If any student is determined to be in
violation of any of those provisions three times during any one year period in
connection with conduct at any single location, such location shall be
considered a nuisance for which all remedies for nuisance properties under this
Code or at common law shall apply, including the right of a private citizen to
bring an equity action to prevent further conduct creating the nuisance at such
property.
(3) The official who serves a notice of violation of any of
the provisions of the Code referenced in section 10-1802 on a student shall also
provide any college or university attended by such student that has a
substantial portion of its facilities located within an Educational Housing
District a copy of the notice of violation, and shall provide the owner of the
residence where the student resides notification of any such violation that
occurs at such residence. A property owner who receives such notification shall
also forward a copy of the notification to the university or college attended by
the student. Within 10 days of receipt of a third notice of violation under
this subsection, the owner shall provide the Department with a written plan of
action for how the owner intends to bring about the end of the activity creating
the nuisance at the property.
