This bill amends R.S. 33:1243(B)(1) concerning the penalties for violations of parish ordinances in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. The maximum penalty for violations, excluding properties zoned or used for industrial activities, is increased from a fine of five hundred dollars to one thousand dollars, along with a potential six-month imprisonment in the parish jail.

For properties zoned or used for industrial activities, the bill introduces significantly higher penalties, allowing fines to reach up to twenty-five thousand dollars for the first violation and up to fifty thousand dollars for any subsequent violations. This change aims to enhance compliance with parish ordinances by imposing stricter penalties on industrial properties, reflecting the potential impact of such violations on the community and environment.
