(a) Whenever the Building Inspector determines that there are reasonable grounds to believe that there has been a violation of any provision of this chapter or any rule or regulation adopted pursuant hereto, he shall give notice of such alleged violation to the person responsible therefor as provided in this section.
(b) The notice required by this section shall be in writing and shall include a statement of the reasons why it is being issued and shall allow a reasonable time for the performance of any act that it requires. Such notice may contain an outline of remedial action which, if taken, will effect compliance with the provisions of this chapter and with the rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto.
(c) Such notice shall be served upon the owner, or his agent, or the occupant, as the case may require; provided, however, such notice shall be deemed to be properly served upon such owner, agent or occupant if a copy thereof is served upon him personally, or if a copy thereof is sent by registered mail to his last known address, or posted in a conspicuous place in or about the premises of the dwelling affected by the notice, or if he is served with such notice by any other method authorized or required under State law.
(Ord. 1310-95. Passed 7-10-95.)
