Where the owner and/or occupant of any premises fails to comply with a notice of violation of any of the provisions within the time period specified in the notice, the Property Maintenance Officer may cause such violation to be corrected, removed or abated. The Property Maintenance Officer may contract with a private person or firm to accomplish the task. The actual cost of bringing the property into compliance plus 15% for inspections and administration shall be billed to the owner. If the bill is not paid within 30 days after submission, then the Clerk of Council shall certify said costs together with a 10% penalty to the County Auditor for placement on the tax duplicate to be collected as other taxes for return to the village.
