A. If affirming the public official's notice of violation and abatement, the hearing officer may assess administrative costs or costs related to the abatement of the violator's vehicle. The hearing officer may also order the refund of hearings fees to parties deemed not responsible for the violation.
B. If it is determined at the hearing that the vehicle was placed on the land without the consent of the landowner and that he or she has not subsequently acquiesced in its presence, then the hearing officer order shall not assess costs of administration or removal of the vehicle against the property upon which the vehicle is located or otherwise attempt to collect the cost from the landowner.
