(A) The city manager, public works director or designee shall give written notice to persons determined to be in violation of this article to remove and properly dispose of the solid waste. Such notice shall be prominently posted on the private property on which the accumulation exists, or shall be personally served on or sent by certified mail to the owner, occupant or person in control of the private property on which the accumulation exists, or shall be personally served on or sent by certified mail to the person who deposited or caused or permitted to be deposited solid waste on public property.
(B) The notice shall require that the solid waste be removed within three days of receipt of the notice or that the person addressed make alternate arrangements with the city manager, and shall state that if the solid waste is not removed, the city will remove and properly disposed of the solid waste and the person addressed will be billed for the cost thereof.
(C) Before the time set for the removal of the solid waste by the city, the person addressed in the notice may file with the city clerk a written request for review by the city council of the contemplated city action, which request shall operate to delay the city in removing the solid waste from private property and assessing the costs of removal, but shall not prevent removal of solid waste from public property.
(D) If a person or property has received the notice set forth in subsection (A) above, for violations on three or more different dates, the city manager or his/her designee may immediately increase service levels to the property and bill the property owner or occupant for the costs of such increased service levels until such time as the city manager, or his/her designee, deem that the increased service levels are no longer warranted. The property owner or occupant may submit a request, along with documentation to support the request, for a reduction in service level and such may be granted if the city manager, or his/her designee, upon finding that the need for increased service levels are no longer necessary.
