At any time prior to the hearing date, the hearing officer assigned to hear the case may, at the request of either party, direct witness to appear and give testimony at the hearing. If on the date set for hearing, the defendant or his or her attorney fails to appear, the hearing officer may find the defendant in default and shall proceed with the hearing and accept evidence relevant to the existence of a code violation. (Ord. 1195, 11-17-2010)
