in effectSec. 6.11.080. - Violations.
(a) If an encroachment into the public right-of-way is discovered without an approved encroachment permit, all work shall immediately cease and any encroachments removed if ordered by the city engineer or his designee, until the proper application is filed and such permit is approved. The city engineer, at his discretion, may order all materials and equipment removed from the public right-of-way until the permit is obtained.

Safety hazards shall be corrected immediately, and other violations shall be corrected within 24 hours. Failure of the permittee to correct such violations during such time period shall be sufficient authorization for the city to remove the permittee from the public right-of-way until all fines are paid and new plan is approved by the city engineer and successfully implemented.
(c) Any person violating any of the provisions of this chapter:
(1) Upon conviction, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and punished as provided in section 1.04.010; or
