A. Determination by Building Official to Request Correction of a Violation. Whenever the building official determines that work is being performed on a building or structure, building service equipment or sign which is in violation of the building regulations adopted by this title or that a building or structure, building service equipment or sign is being occupied, used or maintained in violation of such regulations, the building official may, by service of the notice required by this section, request such violation to be corrected.
B. Service of Notice Requesting Correction of a Violation. Upon determining to request the correction of a violation of the building regulations adopted by this title, the building official shall cause a written notice of such request to be served on the owner of the premises on or within which the violation has occurred, and on any other person known to the building official to be wholly or partially responsible for such violation if such person is someone other than the owner of the premises on or within which the violation has occurred. Such notice shall contain a brief description of the nature of the violation, the action to be taken to correct the violation and a date certain by which such corrective action must be completed, shall contain a statement of the right of a person aggrieved by the determination of the building official that a violation has occurred to apply for administrative review of such determination and to appeal such determination in the manner provided for by Chapter 16.02 of this title, and shall advise the person upon whom the notice is served that a failure to correct the violation on or before the date required by the notice may subject such person to the infraction penalties provided for in Section 16.16.090 of this chapter.
C. Effect of Request to Correct Violation. Any person served with a notice of the request of the building official to correct a violation of the building regulations adopted by this title shall cause such violation to be corrected on or before the date required by such notice. Provided, however, that if a person is served with a notice to correct a violation, such person shall not be subject to any of the infraction penalties provided for in Section 16.16.090 of this chapter unless such person fails to correct such violation on or before the date required by such notice.
