In any case where a Town enforcement agency shall order or direct the construction, removal, alteration or demolition of any improvement in an historic district for the purpose of remedying conditions determined to be dangerous to life, health or property, nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed as making it unlawful for any person, without prior issuance of a letter of approval pursuant to this subchapter, to comply with such order of direction. However, the enforcement agency shall give the Commission notice of any proposed order or direction which affects or may affect the exterior appearance of any structure or site on or in the environs of a historic district. Except in cases affecting public health and safety, the Commission shall be afforded adequate opportunity to review and provide written comments upon any action proposed by an enforcement agency within a historic district prior to the initiation of any said action.
