If the director determines that a nuisance exists that may be abated under this chapter, the director shall serve the owner of such property with a written request to abate that nuisance prior to initiating nuisance abatement proceedings under this chapter. The request shall describe the nuisance to be abated, set forth a reasonable time to abate the nuisance, and advise the property owner that if the nuisance is not so abated, the owner of the property may be subject to proceedings under this chapter or other provisions of law appropriate to achieve abatement of the nuisance. However, when nuisance conditions arise out of a violation of the provisions of this code or any condition of approval of a subdivision or any permit or other entitlement for the use of land, and a written notice of such violation was previously served on the property owner by the director or by any other city officer or employee, the director shall not be required to serve the owner with a separate request to abate the nuisance.
