A. Notice To Abate: If the inspecting officer shall determine that a public nuisance exists on private property and that there is great and immediate danger to the public health, safety, peace, morals or decency, the Village Mayor may direct the Chief of Police, or a Deputy Sheriff, to serve a notice on the owner, or, if the owner cannot be found, on the occupant or person causing, permitting or maintaining such nuisance and to post a copy of the notice on the premises. Such notice shall direct the owner, occupant or person causing, permitting or maintaining such nuisance to abate or remove such nuisance within twenty four (24) hours and shall state that unless such nuisance is so abated, the Village will cause the same to be abated and will charge the cost thereof to the owner, occupant or person causing or permitting or maintaining the same, as the case may be.
B. Abatement By Village: If the nuisance is not abated within the time provided, or if the owner, occupant or person causing the nuisance cannot be found, the building inspector, or some other Village official whom the Mayor shall designate, shall cause the abatement or removal of such public nuisance. (Ord. 366-86, 4-8-1986; amd. Ord. 1125-05, 5-16-2005)
C. Abatement By Court Action: If the inspecting officer shall determine that a public nuisance exists on private premises but that the nature of such nuisance is not such as to threaten great and immediate danger to the public health, safety, peace, morals or decency, he shall file a written report of his findings with the Corporate Authorities who shall cause an action to abate such nuisance to be commenced in the name of the Village.
