When the Compliance Officer (designated by the Fire Chief or Police Chief) or the Council has reason to believe that a violation of this chapter has occurred, such officer or the Council may enter into informal negotiations to resolve the problem. If, after a reasonable period of time, such negotiations have failed to resolve the problem, the Council or Compliance Officer may cause written notice to be served upon the alleged violator. The notice shall be served in the manner required for the service of notice of the commencement of a civil action in a District Court and shall contain:
1. A description of the condition constituting the alleged violation, including its location.
2. A statement of the act or acts necessary to prevent, abate or control the alleged violation.
3. A reasonable time within which to complete the necessary corrective action.
4. A statement that if no request for a hearing is made within the time prescribed, the order shall become final and there shall exist a violation of this chapter.
5. A statement of the penalty for violation of this chapter.
Any such notice shall become a final order unless the person named therein requests in writing a hearing before the Compliance Officer. In lieu of such order, the Compliance Officer or Council may require that the alleged violator appear before the Compliance Officer or Council for a public hearing at a time and place specified in the notice, not less than ten days after service of such notice, to answer the charges complained of; or the Council or Compliance Officer may institute action to abate the condition in the manner set by ordinance for health nuisances. After the public hearing, the Compliance Officer or Council shall, in writing, affirm, modify or rescind its order or issue an appropriate order for the prevention, abatement or control of the condition involved. Such order shall prescribe the date or dates by which the violation shall cease and may prescribe timetables for necessary action in preventing, abating or controlling the condition.
