(A) If an unsafe or unsanitary condition is found in any building or structure, the Chief Building Official shall serve on the owner or his agent a written order hereinafter referred to as an “unsafe building order.” The unsafe building order shall identify the building or structure in question and shall order that particular repairs or improvements be made in order to render the building or structure safe, secure, and sanitary, or that the building or structure, or unsafe portion thereof, be demolished, within a specified period not less than 30 days. The time specified may be extended by the Chief Building Official for good cause shown. The unsafe building order shall state that if there is not full compliance with the order within the time specified, or as extended, the city will repair, alter, or demolish the building or structure, as called for in the order, or institute legal proceedings to enforce compliance with the order, unless the owner appeals the order as provided in § 150.084.

(B) If neither the owner, agent, or person in control of such unsafe building or structure can be found within the county after reasonable diligent search, the unsafe building order shall be sent to one of them by registered or certified mail directed to his last known address; and a copy thereof shall be posted in a conspicuous place on such building or structure; and such procedure shall be deemed the equivalent of personal notice or service.
