4-9-14: VIOLATIONS; LICENSE SUSPENSION OR REVOCATION PROVISIONS:
   A.   Notice Of Violation; Possible Citation: Whenever, upon inspection of the licensed multiple-family dwelling, it is determined that conditions or practices exist which are in violation of the provisions of this chapter or any applicable statute, ordinance, code or regulation, the village shall serve the owner with a notice of violation. Such notice shall identify the specific violations and state that unless they are corrected within the time specified in the notice, the license may be suspended. Notice pursuant to this subsection may be sent by U.S. certified mail, regular mail, e-mail, or hand delivered to the party designated in the application to receive notices and process. The owner may also be cited by the village pursuant to applicable laws and ordinances.
   B.   Reinspections; Suspension Of License; Reinstatement:
      1.   At the end of the time allowed for correction of any violation cited or preoccupancy inspection, the multiple- family dwelling shall be reinspected by the village. If it is determined that the conditions have not been corrected, or they are not in the process of being corrected to the satisfaction of the village inspector, the village may issue an order suspending the license. Tenant caused violations will not be considered grounds for suspension of the license as long as the owner cooperates in gaining compliance.
      2.   Any person whose license to operate a multiple-family dwelling has been suspended shall be given the opportunity to be heard by the village building department in connection with the violations. Said person must submit his or her request to be heard in writing, and the written request must explain in detail the violations cited, why they have not been corrected, and a compliance time frame for completion. However, if no written request for hearing reaches the village building department within twenty one (21) days following the issuance of the order of suspension, the license shall be revoked. The village, as a result of such hearing, may grant additional time or may revoke the license. Prior to revocation, any owner whose license has been suspended may request a reinspection upon a showing that the violation or violations cited in the notice have been corrected.
      3.   If, upon reinspection, it is determined by the village that the violations cited in the notice have been corrected, the license shall be reinstated by the village clerk. A request for reinspection must be filed within the twenty one (21) day time period for requesting a hearing.
   C.   Revocation Of License:
      1.   If the licensee is found guilty by a court of a violation of any provision of this chapter or any applicable ordinance, code or regulation in connection with the licensed multiple- family dwelling, then the license shall be subject to revocation without further notice.
      2.   In the event a condition of extreme hazard to health or safety is found to exist, the village may immediately revoke the license.
   D.   Each Day A Separate Offense: Each day a multiple-family dwelling continues to operate after a license has been revoked shall constitute a separate violation of this chapter.
   E.   Inspection Costs: The first and second reinspection provided in subsection B1 of this section shall be without charge to the owner. Thereafter, each additional reinspection shall be at a cost of fifty dollars ($50.00) per hour per inspector, based on the number of inspector hours required to make said inspections and prepare the required report. The minimum charge for any reinspection shall be fifty dollars ($50.00). (Ord. 14-02, 4-14-2014)
