16.38.020   Request to correct violation.
   A.   Determination by Building Official to Request Correction of a Violation. Whenever the building official determines that floodplain work is being performed or a condition exists in violation of the floodplain regulations adopted by this title, the building official may, by service of a notice provided for by this section, request such violation to be corrected.
   B.   Service of Notice Requesting Correction of a Violation. Upon determining to request a correction of a violation of the floodplain regulations adopted by this title, the building official shall cause a written notice of such request to be served on the owner of the property on 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 property on 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 the 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 16.34 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 16.38.060 of this chapter.
   C.   Effect of a Request to Correct Violation. Any person served with a request of the building official to correct a violation of the floodplain 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 16.38.060 of this chapter unless such person fails to correct such violation on or before the date required by such notice.
