The following details the appeal process:
(A) Appeal of citation. When a citation is issued, the person to whom the citation is issued shall respond to the citation within seven days following the issuance by either paying the fines, charges, costs, penalties and/or fees, including administrative fees assessed therein, or by filing an appeal in writing with the City Clerk of the City of Dawson Springs, Kentucky, at City Hall, Dawson Springs, Kentucky, 42408, requesting a hearing before the Code Enforcement Board.
(B) Violation must be corrected. Payment of assessed fines, charges, administrative fees and penalties shall not relieve the property owner, resident, tenant, occupant, persons having control or management of the property, or other violator from his or her obligation to bring the property on which the violation occurred into compliance with the property maintenance code within a reasonable time thereafter, as solely determined by the Code Enforcement Officer.
