(a) Stop Orders. The Zoning Inspector, after consultation with the Village Manager, may issue a stop order against the construction or alteration or further construction or alteration of any building or structure, or the use or continued use of any building, structure, or land, that the Zoning Inspector reasonably believes is taking place in violation of any provision of this Zoning Ordinance or any other Ordinance of the Village, or that is taking place without a zoning or occupancy permit or in violation of any of the terms, conditions, or requirements of an existing permit.
(b) Revocation of Permit. The Zoning Inspector, after consultation with the Village Manager, may revoke a zoning permit when the Zoning Inspector reasonably believes that the use of the property constitutes a violation of or a failure to comply with any of the terms, conditions, or requirements of the existing permit.
(c) Hearing Procedures. At the time of taking any action under this Section, the Zoning Inspector shall provide the occupant, if any, and the record owner of the property with written notice of the reasons for the action so taken and that a hearing may be requested before the Zoning Inspector. Notice to the owner shall be by personal service on the owner or, if not possible, by certified mail sent to the last known address of the owner. If a hearing is requested in writing, the hearing shall be held within two (2) business days of receipt of the request for the hearing. After hearing the matter, the Zoning Inspector shall affirm, modify or vacate the stop order or the order that revoked the permit. This decision will be sent in writing by certified mail explaining the decision and the occupant's rights of appeal.
