An owner, property agent, and tenant receiving a nuisance determination must abate the cited nuisance within 72 hours of receipt of the nuisance determination. An owner or property agent shall submit a written response to the Police Department detailing the action taken by the owner to abate the nuisance. If the nuisance is not abated within 72 hours of receipt of the nuisance determination, the Police Department shall issue a notice to evict the tenant responsible for the nuisance ("eviction filing order") to the tenant and owner or property agent directing the owner or property agent to initiate eviction proceedings against the responsible tenant. An owner or property agent must initiate eviction proceedings within 10 calendar days of being served an eviction filing order from the Police Department. All parties served with the nuisance determination shall be served with an eviction filing order. A copy of any eviction filing order shall be submitted to the Town Council president and the Town Attorney. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an owner or property agent has demonstrated that an eviction of the responsible tenant has already been filed or the tenant has already vacated the dwelling unit, residence or residential rental unit, an owner or property agent shall not be required to initiate eviction proceedings.
