(a) If, upon inspection, it is determined that a public nuisance exists, then the Planning and Zoning Manager or his/her designee shall send or deliver a written notice in accordance with Section 1323.10 of this chapter to abate such public nuisance to each owner or occupant, or both, who caused or permitted the public nuisance to exist. Such notice shall identify the public nuisance and require the owner or occupant, or both, to abate the public nuisance within seven (7) days of such notice if the public nuisance is litter and in all other cases within thirty (30) days of such notice either by the removal of the public nuisance or the repair of the public nuisance in accordance with Section 1323.06. Failure to abate the public nuisance within seven (7) or thirty (30) days of such notice, as provided herein, may cause the City to abate the public nuisance at the expense of the owner or occupant, or both, who caused or permitted such public nuisance to exist.
(b) The Planning and Zoning Manager or his/her designee shall prepare or cause the preparation of a written report, including photographs, of every public nuisance for which a notice to abate is issued. All such reports shall remain on file with the Planning and Zoning Department until the public nuisance is abated.
