(A) Pursuant to a request, the City Council shall fix a time for a hearing to show cause why a vehicle nuisance should not be immediately abated. It shall receive the evidence and testimony of the Chief of Police and other interested persons concerning the existence, location, and condition of the vehicle.
(B) After the hearing, the City Council may authorize and order the vehicle removed by the city in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. The City Council shall make its order in the form of a resolution which declares the vehicle to be a public nuisance. The resolution may order the removal of
more than one vehicle and may consolidate the hearings and orders relating to more than one vehicle. The persons receiving the notice specified in § 90.04 shall be sent copies of the resolution of the Council.
(C) In addition, the City Council may impose conditions and take such other action as it deems appropriate under the circumstances in order to carry out the purposes of this chapter. It may delay the time for removal of the vehicle where, in its opinion, the circumstances justify it. It shall refuse to order the removal of the vehicle where the vehicle, in the opinion of the City Council, is not subject to the provisions of this chapter. The City Council shall not be bound by the technical rules of evidence in the conduct of the hearing.
