Enforcement of standards

[Amended 5-10-2010 by Ord. No. 2010-13]

• A. Violations. In the event of a determination by the Building Inspector of a probable violation of the performance standards subsequent to the granting of a permit, a written notice of the probable violation shall be sent by registered mail to the owner of the industrial use. The notice shall further state that upon the continuation of the probable violation, technical determinations as described in this chapter shall be made by the Building Inspector and that if violations as alleged are found, costs of such determinations, including the costs of hiring qualified experts, shall be charged against those responsible for the violation, in addition to such other penalties as may be appropriate; provided, however, that if it is determined that no violation exists, the cost of the determination will be paid by the Town of Johnston.
• B. Review by Planning Board. Cases involving probable violations may be referred by the Building Inspector to the Planning Board. In such cases, the Planning Board shall proceed to investigate the alleged violation and shall make such technical determinations as are prescribed in § 340-16 of this chapter. The Planning Board shall make known its findings, in writing, to the Building Inspector.
