On conviction, any person who violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $150.00 per day of the violation, or by confinement not exceeding five days, or both, in the discretion of the municipal court. Such person shall be deemed guilty of a separate offense for each day that the violation continues. The continued maintenance of a sign installed in violation of this title constitutes a public nuisance and it, or the condition constituting the violation, may be abated in accordance with the procedures of the general nuisance abatement ordinances of the city (Chapter 8.10 TMC); provided, that the violation constituting the nuisance has been adjudged after a Talent municipal court hearing. The city council may, after according the property owner 10 days’ notice and a reasonable opportunity to be heard before the city council, authorize the chief of police or designated code enforcement officer to go upon the premises and summarily abate the nuisance.
