(a) Whenever the Property Maintenance Officer finds any dwelling, structure, or premises, or any part thereof, to be in non-emergency violation of the provisions of these Standards, the Property Maintenance Officer, with the permission of the Village Administrator, shall give, or cause to be given or mailed, written notice stating the violations therein to the owners of record of such property and the holders of legal or equitable liens of the record upon the realty property on which such building is located. Such notice shall not give less than thirty (30) days to complete the repair, improvement, or demolition of the structure or premises, except cases in violation of 1317.05(a)(1). Notice of violations of 1317.05(a)(1) shall not give less than seven (7) days to remove the refuse from the property.
(b) If the person to whom a notice of violation is addressed cannot be found after reasonable and diligent search, notice may then be sent to the last known address of such person, and a copy of such notice may be posted in a conspicuous place on the structure or premises to which it relates. The notice shall also be published in a newspaper of general circulation. Such mailing, posting, and advertising shall be deemed legal service of such notice.
