(A) Whenever the Mayor or other designated official finds any dwelling structure or premises, or any part thereof, to be in violation of the provisions of this code, the Mayor or other designated official shall give or cause to be given or mailed to the owner, agent or occupant of such structure or premises a written notice stating the violation. Such notice shall order the owner, agent or occupant within a stated reasonable time, but not less than ten days, to respond to the Mayor to which he or she will call a Planning Commission meeting and the offending party will attend to discuss his, her, or their plans to repair or improve the structure or premises concerned. The Planning Commission will then determine the length of time granted to comply with the violations. If the owner, agent, or occupant fails to correct the violation, it shall be a minor misdemeanor as provided in § 153.99. Furthermore, the Mayor or other designated official may take all necessary steps as authorized in this code to obtain access to the property to bring the property into conformity with the code, and may recoup the costs associated with any remediation performed by the village pursuant to § 153.18.
(B) Service of notice. The notice may be served by delivering it personally to an owner, leaving it at the owner's usual place of business or residence, posting it in a conspicuous place on such real estate, mailing it to the owner at his last known address by certified mail, or by publishing it once in a newspaper of general circulation within the village, if it cannot be served in any of the other ways abovementioned.
