(A) As a condition of receiving rental unit registration, each registration holder is presumed to agree and consent that when the conduct of any registration holder or registration holder's agent, representative, employee or lessee, or the condition of their rental unit, or the property in or on which it is located, is detrimental to the public health, sanitation, safety and general welfare of the community at-large, or residents of the rental units so as to constitute a nuisance, fire hazard, or other unsafe or dangerous condition and thus give rise to an emergency, the City Administrator shall have the authority to summarily condemn or close individual rental units or such areas of the rental dwelling as the Administrator deems necessary. Notice of summary condemnation shall be posted at the units or areas affected and shall describe the units or areas affected. No person shall remove the posted notice, other than the Fire Chief, East Range Police Chief, City Administrator, or their designated representative. Any person aggrieved by the decision or the action of the City Administrator or Fire Marshall set out in this division, may appeal the decision following the procedures set out in this chapter. The hearing shall be conducted in the same manner as provided in this chapter, however, the date of the hearing may be expedited with the consent of the registration holder.
(B) The decision of the City Administrator set forth in this division is not voided by the filing of such appeal. Only after the hearing by the City Council has been held will the decision or action of the City Administrator be affected.
