6.101.

Whoever, being the owner or agent of the owner of any land located within a subdivision, transfers or sells or agrees to sell any land by reference to or exhibition of or by other use of a plat of a subdivision before such plat has been approved by the Patterson Planning Commission and recorded and filed in the office of the clerk of court of St. Mary Parish, shall pay a penalty of one hundred dollars ($100.00) for each lot or parcel so transferred or sold, or agreed or negotiated to be sold. The description of such lot or parcel by metes and bounds in the instrument of transfer or other document used in the process of selling or transferring shall not exempt the transaction from such penalties or from the remedies herein provided.
