(a) After completing a rating of the residential structures in the City of Alliance as provided for in Section 771.04, the City of Alliance may further inspect the exterior and interior of the Condition 3, 4 and 5 premises in order to ascertain and insure compliance with all Alliance Codified Ordinances.
(b) For each premises so inspected, the City shall charge an inspection fee which shall include the cost of one re-inspection to insure compliance. Said fee is initially established at forty-five dollars ($45.00), and may be amended from time to time. For multiple unit structures, the fee for the initial inspection, and one re-inspection, is established as forty-five dollars ($45.00) for the first unit plus ten dollars ($10.00) for all units in addition thereto, and may be amended from time to time. This inspection fee shall be assessed against the title owner of the premises and may be assessed as a lien against the premises at the option of the City. The fee shall be rationally related to actual costs, expense and time incurred by the City for such inspection.
(c) In the event that an inspection occurs as the result of a complaint generated by a citizen, and the inspector finds no violations that would warrant a notice of violation of the Alliance Codified Ordinances, no inspection fee shall be charged to the owner of the premises.
