Section 73-10 of Alexandria Bay's Code of Ordinances, Chapter 73, establishes a tiered fine structure for violations of the chapter. After a trial on the merits, fines range from a minimum of $100 up to $1,000 for a first offense, $250 to $2,500 for a second offense, and $250 to $5,000 for a third offense. Each separate violation is treated as its own distinct offense when calculating the appropriate fine level.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers subject to Chapter 73 of the Alexandria Bay Code should be aware that § 73-10 imposes escalating financial penalties for each violation found after a trial on the merits. Compliant operators generally maintain thorough records of their practices and promptly address any potential violations to avoid repeat offenses, which carry significantly higher fines. Because each separate violation is counted independently, operators with multiple units or obligations under the chapter face compounding exposure.
