    If a person has received actual notice of the provisions of this chapter and acts in violation of this chapter or fails to take action to comply with this chapter, or federal, state or local regulations, the City may initiate a suit:

    (1)

    to recover a civil penalty not to exceed $5,000 a day for each violation;

    (2)

    to obtain injunctive relief;

    (3)

    to recover expenses, loss or damage to City property; or
