A. Whenever any newsrack is found to be in violation of this chapter, the Development Services Director, or his/her designee, shall cause to be attached to such newsrack, a notice of violation, specifying the date and nature of the violation, that the newsrack shall be impounded if corrections are not timely made, and that a hearing may be requested within ten working days of the posting or mailing date of such notice. A copy of said notice of violation shall be mailed to the person whose name and address appears on the newsrack as provided in Section 7.38.110 on the same date the notice is affixed to the newsrack. The owner shall, within ten working days of the date on which the notice of violation was mailed, either cause the violation to be corrected or request a hearing in writing pursuant to Section 7.38.170.
B. In the case of violation of this chapter relative to restrictions upon attachments of newsracks to property other than that owned by the owner of the newsrack, to fixed objects or each other, and upon location of newsracks, any public body or office may, as an alternative to removal under subsection A of this section, remove such attachment and/or move such rack or racks in order to restore them to a legal condition.
