While a declaration of public health nuisance for an affected site is in effect and has been posted at the site, no personal property may be removed from the site without prior written consent from the city building official. Consent to remove personal property shall only be granted at the reasonable discretion of the building official, and only in cases of hardship after:
(A) A city approved environmental hazard testing and cleaning firm has advised the city, in writing, that the item(s) of personal property can be sufficiently cleaned to remove all harmful contamination; and
(B) The owner of the personal property agrees in writing:
(1) The owner is aware of the danger of using the contaminated property;
(2) The owner will thoroughly clean the property to remove all contamination before the property is used; and
(3) The owner releases and agrees to indemnify the city, its staff, and the City Council from all liability to the owner and/or third persons for injuries or damages caused, or alleged to have been caused, by the contaminated property.
