A copy of the notice shall be posted on the affected property. The notice shall state the specific facts giving rise to such nuisance, the corrective measures deemed necessary and time, date and place at which a hearing shall be held by the City Council relating thereto, which date shall be not less than ten (10) nor more than thirty (30) days after the date such notice is mailed.

If the City Engineer finds that immediate action is necessary to prevent impairment of the ground water or a threat to the health or safety of the public, he or she may abate the nuisance without giving notice. Within twenty-four (24) hours after initiating such abatement, the City Engineer shall give notice of a hearing before the City Council in the manner prescribed in paragraph A. above.
