(A) Any person ordered to abate a nuisance may have a hearing with the officer ordering the abatement to determine whether a nuisance does exist. A request for a hearing must be made in writing and delivered to the officer ordering the abatement within the time stated in the notice, or it will be conclusively presumed that a nuisance exists that must be abated as ordered.
(B) (1) At the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer shall render a written decision as to whether a nuisance exists. If he or she finds that a nuisance exists, he or she must order it abated within an additional time which must be reasonable under the circumstances.
(2) An appeal from this decision may be had by immediately filing a written notice with the hearing officer. This appeal will be heard before the Town Council at a time and placed fixed by the Town Council.
(3) The findings of the Town Council shall be conclusive and, if a nuisance is found to exist, it shall be ordered abated within a time reasonable under the circumstances.
