§ 518.206. Notice.
(a)
Whenever the Chief finds any one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 518.202 to exist, he/she shall cause a notice to be posted on the property upon which the public nuisance exists. The posted notice shall state:
(1)
A description of the public nuisance.
(2)
The time period allowed for termination.
(3)
The time period allowed for a written petition for an appeal to the Building Codes Adjustment Board.
(4)
That termination of the public nuisance by the city shall cause a special assessment and lien for the total costs thereof to be placed on the property.
(5)
That the owner, custodian, agent, lessee, trustee or occupant of the property is subject to prosecution for violation of Chapter 518 of the property.
(6)
That the person is subject to prosecution for violation of Chapter 518 of the Ordinance Code.
(7)
That the city, notwithstanding the above, reserves the right to proceed with an action foreclosing the lien placed against the property upon which the nuisance existed, to hold the owner of the property personally liable for the cost of correcting the offending condition, or/and to place the lien on the Tax Collector's roll for collection purposes.
(b)
The mailing of the notice shall be sufficient proof thereof, and the delivery or service of notice shall be equivalent to mailing. For the purpose of notice requirements to a property owner, the owner shall be deemed to be the owner recorded on the current tax records in the office of the Property Appraiser. If the mailing address of the person is not known to the Chief or the records do not reveal a change of ownership of the property involved or the property is unoccupied, the posted notice on the property shall constitute sufficient notice to the owner, custodian, agent, lessee, trustee or occupant thereof and no additional notice shall be required for any action hereunder.
