(A) Any person affected by any notice which has been issued in connection with the enforcement of any provision of this subchapter may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Code Enforcement Officer, provided that such person shall file in the office of the Code Enforcement Officer a written petition requesting such hearing and setting forth a brief statement of the grounds therefore within ten days after the day the notice was served.
(B) The filing of the request for a hearing shall operate as a stay of the notice and of the suspension, except in the case of an order issued under § 153.29. Upon receipt of such petition, the Code Enforcement Officer shall set a time and place for such hearing, the petitioner shall be given an opportunity to be heard and to show why such notice should be modified or withdrawn. The hearing shall be commenced not later than ten days after the day on which the petition was filed, provided that upon application of the petitioner the Code Enforcement Officer may postpone the date of the hearing for a reasonable time beyond such ten-day period when, in his or her judgement, the petitioner has submitted good and sufficient reasons for such postponement.
