SUMMONS FOR VIOLATIONS OF LITTER CONTROL ORDINANCES (§ 15.2-733)

The board may adopt by ordinance procedures and a schedule of penalties so that
the county manager or his designee may issue notices of violation for litter
control ordinances. Before any summons is issued for the prosecution of a
violation, the violator shall be notified by mail at his last known address that
he may pay the fine, established by county ordinance, within five days of
receipt of such notice to the county treasurer, and that the officer issuing the
summons shall be notified that the violator has failed to pay such fine within
such time. The notice to the violator, required by the provisions of this
section, shall be contained in an envelope bearing the words &#8220;Law
Enforcement Notice&#8221; stamped or printed on the face thereof in type at
least one-half inch in height. The county manager may delegate the notification
responsibility and the authority to make and enforce rules and regulations to
the appropriate administrative official or employees.
