Section 65-1929 - Tanning facility license required; remedies(a) If the board determines that an individual or entity has operated a tanning facility without a valid license, in addition to any other penalties imposed by law, the board, in accordance with the Kansas administrative procedure act, may issue a cease and desist order against such individual or entity or may assess such individual or entity a fine of not to exceed $1,500 or may issue such order and assess such fine. In determining the amount of fine to be assessed, the board may consider the following factors: (1) Willfulness of the violation,(2) repetitions of the violation, and(3) risk of harm to the public caused by the violation.(b) The board may bring an action in its own name in a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin any person from operating a tanning facility without a currently valid license. In any civil action brought under this section, it shall be presumed that irreparable damage will occur where the board alleges and proves a person committed a violation of such licensing laws. In addition to issuing an order for injunctive relief, the court may also assess a fine of not to exceed $1,500 against such person. L. 2002, ch. 187, § 14; July 1.
