(A) Whenever the city shall determine that a nuisance exists, notice shall be given to the owner of the property in person, by mail at the address shown by the current year’s tax rolls in the County Treasurer’s office, or by posting a copy of the notice on the property, or by publication as defined in 11 O.S. § 1-102 one time not less than ten days prior to any hearing or action by the city. The notice shall order the property owner to clean the property of trash, and said notice shall further state that unless such work is performed within ten days of the date of the notice the work shall be done by the city and the full cost charged to the property owner. Notice may also be given by posting or placarding the property or by publication, as defined in 11 O.S. § 1-102.
(B) If the city anticipates summary abatement of the nuisance in accordance with the provisions of division (A) of this section, the notice as defined by 11 O.S. § 22-111, shall state:
(1) That any accumulations of trash on the owner’s property occurring within six months from and after the date of this notice may be summarily abated by the municipal governing body;
(2) That the costs of such abatement shall be assessed against the owner; and
(3) That a lien may be imposed on the property to secure such payment, all without further prior notice to the property owner.
