§ 4-140. Abatement of nuisances.
Violation of any of the provisions set forth in section 4-139 shall constitute a public nuisance, and therefore nothing in this chapter shall be construed to prevent the village from acting summarily to abate the nuisance. All costs and expenses incurred by the village in abating any nuisance shall be reimbursed by the person who allowed, caused, or maintained said nuisance. Such action on the part of the village shall be in addition to any other remedy provided for in this chapter and shall not affect the right of the village to enforce any penalty provided for herein. Nor shall this chapter be construed to deny any common law right to any person to abate a nuisance.
