Ordinance Violations Penalties
If you have been arrested for a city ordinance violation, you may be tempted not to take the charges very seriously. However, it is important to realize that these apparently minor charges can carry penalties such as jail time if convicted. A violation of the Brevard County Code of Ordinances is punishable by a maximum $500 fine and a maximum 60 days in county jail, in addition to having your license or any permits revoked or suspended.
