(A) Notwithstanding any provision of the code to the contrary, if the city determines that any property, building or structure, or any part thereof, is in violation of any provision of the Monrovia Municipal Code and said violation has not been fully abated or corrected, as determined by the city, within a 30-day period after written notice to a responsible person, then the city, in its sole discretion, may record a notice of substandard property with the County Recorder’s Office against said premises. As used herein, “fully abated or corrected” includes the procurement of all required city approvals, permits, licenses and the passage of all city required inspections.
(B) The city may record a notice of substandard property without the issuance of a notice of abatement pursuant to § 8.12.070 of this chapter, provided that a notice of correction or a notice of violation to a responsible person previously disclosed that a substandard notice may be recorded against a property if a violation is not fully abated or corrected in a period of 30 days.
(C) A notice of substandard property may be recorded 30 days after service of a notice of abatement provided that:
(1) The notice contained this disclosure;
(2) The public nuisance was not fully abated or corrected within that period, and
(3) A timely and proper appeal to the notice of abatement was not made.
(D) A notice of substandard property may be recorded after service of an order of abatement provided that:
(1) The order of abatement contained this disclosure; and
(2) The public nuisance was not fully abated or corrected in the manner and time specified in the order of abatement.
(E) The form that constitutes a Notice of Substandard Property shall be approved by the City Attorney or the City Prosecutor.
(F) The city shall record a notice of rescission of substandard property with the County Recorder’s Office within ten business days of its determination that a violation or a public nuisance has been fully abated or corrected.
(G) The city shall cause copies of recorded notices of substandard property and notices of rescission of substandard property to be served on all persons having an ownership interest in the subject real property as shown in the last equalized assessment roll of the County Assessor’s Office. Service thereof shall be by first class mail. Failure of any person to receive such notices shall not invalidate any action or proceeding pursuant to this chapter.
