Whenever an order to repair any private street has not been complied with within the time set by the Board or Director, or within any additional time the Director extends for good cause, the Board may cause the private street to be repaired by the means the Board deems advisable.
Whenever the Board has undertaken action to make those repairs required by its order or the order of the Director, upon the failure of the owner or other interested party to comply with such order, the owner, person served with the order to repair, or other persons having charge or control over the parcels upon which the hazardous private street is located shall be deemed to have forfeited all further rights and privileges to do such work and are thereafter prohibited from doing any such work on said hazardous private street, except as the Board may otherwise allow.
(Amended by Ord. No. 175,596, Eff. 12/7/03.)
All costs incurred to repair the hazardous private street shall be a personal obligation against the owner of the real property upon which the private street is located, recoverable by the City in an action before any court of competent jurisdiction. These costs shall include an amount equal to 40 percent of the cost to perform the actual work, but not less than the sum of $100.00, to cover the City’s costs for administering any contract and supervising the work required. In addition to this personal obligation and all other remedies provided by law, the City may collect any judgment, fee, cost, or charge, including any permit fees, fines, late charges, or interest, incurred in relation to the provisions of this section as provided in Los Angeles Administrative Code Sections 7.35.1 through 7.35.8.
