A. Violations may be abated after service of a Notice of Violation under this Chapter.
B. The violation may be abated by Town personnel or by a private contractor acting under the direction of the Town. Town personnel or a private contractor may enter upon private property in a reasonable manner to abate a violation as specified in the Notice of Violation.
C. If a responsible person abates the violation before the Town abates the violation pursuant to a Notice of Violation, the Zoning Administrator may nevertheless assess all costs actually incurred by the Town against the responsible person.
D. When abatement is completed, the Zoning Administrator shall prepare a Notice of Itemized Bill for Costs.
E. The Zoning Administrator shall serve the Notice of Itemized Bill for Costs by certified mail or personal delivery to the last known address of the responsible person or to the owner of record of the property on which the abatement took place. The notice shall demand full payment within thirty (30) days to the Town Recorder.
F. The responsible person shall have the right to an Administrative Hearing to contest the Notice of Itemized Bill for Costs. A request for such hearing shall be in writing and shall be filed with the Town Recorder within ten (10) days from the date of service of the Notice of Itemized Bill for Costs. Failure to request a hearing as provided shall constitute a waiver to such hearing and a waiver of the right to appeal. (Ord. 23-01, 1-3-2023)
