(A) After a notice of violation has been recorded, and after the violations listed on the notice of violation have been corrected, the responsible person or property owner may file with the enforcement official a written request for a re-inspection of the property to determine compliance with the municipal code and applicable state codes listed in the recorded notice of violation, and for the issuance of a notice of compliance on a form provided by the city.
(B) Once the enforcement official receives this request, the enforcement official shall re-inspect the property to determine whether the violations listed in the notice of violation have been corrected and whether all necessary permits have been issued and final inspections have been performed.
(C) The enforcement official shall serve a notice of compliance to the responsible person or property owner in the manner provided in Division 3 of this chapter only if the enforcement official determines that:
(1) All violations listed in the recorded notice of violation have been corrected; and
(2) All necessary permits have been issued and finalized; and
(3) All civil penalties and any fines have been paid; and
(4) The party requesting the notice of compliance has paid an administrative fee to reimburse the city for all administrative costs. Administrative fees may include costs incurred in the investigation, inspection, re-inspection, title search, appeal hearing and any other processing costs associated with the violations specified on the notice of violation.
(D) If the enforcement official denies a request to issue a notice of compliance, the enforcement official shall serve the responsible person or property owner with a written explanation setting forth the reasons for the denial. The written explanation shall be served by any of the methods of service listed in Division 3 of this chapter.
