(a) Should the Building Inspector, and either the Fire Chief or the County Health Official, find that a public nuisance exists and that the nature thereof is such as to require its summary abatement, the Director of Community Development shall cause photographs to be made of such nuisance and shall file and keep in his or her office such photographs along with the reports of the Building Inspector, Fire Chief and County Health Official pertaining to the public nuisance. The Building Inspector shall then determine the individual, firm or corporation who from the records in the County Auditor’s office, appears to be the titled owner of the property and immediately cause a written notice to be served on such titled owner. Notice shall be served personally on the titled owner or by certified mail with a return receipt requested. If service of such written notice is unable to be perfected by the aforesaid methods, then the Building Inspector shall cause a copy of the aforesaid notice to be left with the individual, if any, in possession of the premises on which the public nuisance exists, or if there is no individual in possession of the premises, he or she shall cause a copy of the notice to be posted on the premises.
(b) The notice required by division (a) above shall state, in brief, the findings with respect to the existence of the public nuisance by the Building Inspector and the concurrence of either the Fire Chief or County Health Official. The notice shall further state that unless the owner causes the nuisance to be abated within 72 hours of the service of the notice, the nuisance shall be abated by the city at the expense of the owner.
(c) Any act, inspection or findings required to be carried out by the Building Inspector, Fire Chief, County Health Official or Director of Public Safety pursuant to this chapter may be carried out by any of their respective subordinates, assigned or directed by them to carry out such function.
