    If the person(s) who has been issued a citation pursuant to this chapter wishes to admit liability for any alleged violation(s), the person(s) may, without requesting a hearing, pay the full amount of the fine(s), penalties, costs and/or fees admitted to the Planning and Zoning Office. Such payment shall be inadmissible in any proceeding, civil or criminal, to establish the conduct of such person(s) or other person making the payment.
