This amendment is sponsored by Councilmember Ruff on behalf of the Administration and would lower the increase in the escalating fine for a Class D Violation. Currently the fine rises from $15 to $30 if not paid within seven calendar days. The ordinance proposes that the fine rise from $25 to $40 when not paid in that time frame. This amendment would have that fine rise from $20 to $40 and be consistent with the doubling of the fine when not paid within seven calendar days.
