(A) The Public Works and/or Planning Director(s), or their designee(s), shall be charged with the enforcement of the provisions of this chapter. If the Director(s) finds that any of the provisions of this chapter are being violated, they shall notify the persons responsible for such violations, in writing, indicating the nature of violation and ordering the actions necessary to correct the violation. They shall also take any other action authorized by this section to ensure compliance with or to prevent violation of its provisions.
(B) The Director(s) shall have the discretion to stay the accrual of civil penalties pending reasonable efforts by the violator to correct the violation. The owner of the property on which the violation occurs may submit to the Code Enforcement Official a written request for extension of the order’s specified time limit for correction of the violation. On determining that the request includes enough information to show that the violation cannot be corrected within the specified time limit for reasons beyond the control of the person requesting the extension, the Code Enforcement Official may extend the time limit as reasonably necessary to allow timely correction of the violation.
