(A) When a public nuisance constitutes an immediate hazard or threat of harm and the situation calls for abatement sooner than the abatement procedures in this chapter otherwise allow, the Code Enforcement Officer may take or cause emergency abatement of such nuisance with such notice to parties concerned, or without notice, as the particular circumstance reasonably allows.
(B) Whenever the Police Chief, Building Official, or Fire Marshal, finds conditions on a property constitute an immediate hazard or threat to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons or property, and the situation calls for abatement sooner than the abatement procedures in this chapter permit, the Police Chief, Building Official, or Fire Marshal may order and cause the summary abatement of those conditions constituting the threat without the prior notice or hearing described in §§ 95A.108 and 95A.111. After the summary abatement, notice and a reasonable opportunity to be heard will be afforded. Expenses and costs of abatement can be appealed to the Indio Consolidated Appeals Board pursuant to § 95A.121.
