§ 158.164 RESPONSIBILITY FOR VIOLATIONS.
   All nuisance and building related code violations will be cited and noticed to the owner of record and shall become the owner's responsibility. The owner of any abandoned structure shall be obligated to provide written notice to any prospective purchaser of any vacant or abandoned structure of any violations, fees, or obligations imposed by the city regarding that vacant or abandoned structure. Failure of an owner to comply with this section shall constitute a violation of this chapter. If the owner sells or otherwise disposes of the property to another party, the new owner shall not be entitled to any extension of time to correct or address such violations as existed at the time of sale, transfer, or conveyance of the property.
