The owner may contest the determination by requesting, in writing, a hearing before the Code Enforcement Board within seven (7) days of the date of the citation. Should the cited individual fail to request a hearing before the Code Enforcement Board within seven (7) days of the date of that citation or pay the fine the determination that a violation was committed shall be final;
