(a) When the Police Chief and/or Fire Chief, with the advice and consent of the Building Inspector, are of the opinion that a building or structure is in such an unsafe or unsanitary condition so that life is endangered thereby he may order and require the inmates and occupants to vacate said building or structure forthwith. He shall cause to be posted at such entrance to such building a notice to read as follows:
"This building is unfit for occupancy and its use has been prohibited forthwith."
(b) Such notice shall remain posted until the required repairs are made or until the building or structure is razed. It shall be unlawful for any person other than an employee of the Village, properly authorized to do so, to remove or cause to be removed said notice without written permission from the Clerk. It shall be unlawful for any person other than those authorized by law to enter a building or structure which has been posted as unsafe for use or occupancy, except for the purpose of making the required repairs or demolishing said building or structure. The Clerk may, when necessary for public safety, temporarily close sidewalks, streets, buildings, structures, and places adjacent to such buildings or structures and prohibit the same from being used. Notice of any temporary closing of streets, roads or buildings shall be sent to all persons involved and to all proper public officials excepting, however, in case of an emergency, sending such notice may be waived.
