The board may impose a penalty, not to exceed two hundred fifty dollars, for each day the violation exists. Violation of any provision of this chapter or failure to comply with a cease and desist order is cause for revocation of the license. Decisions may be appealed as provided for in Chapter 23, Title 1.
