This chapter constitutes an alternate procedure to Chapter 8.24 of this code for abatement of a nuisance and for assessment of the abatement costs against the property on which such nuisance is maintained or from which such nuisance extends. (Ord. 2004-10 § 5(part), 2004; Ord. 01-107 § 3 (part), 2001).
If in the opinion of the City Manager, any nuisance, as defined in Chapter 8.24, constitutes an immediate hazard to the public health, safety or welfare or materially interferes with public travel or passage, the City Manager may abate such nuisance. The abatement work may be performed by the city's own employees or by independent contractors, or any combination thereof. The City Manager and his or her authorized representatives and contractors may enter upon private property as may be necessary or appropriate in order to perform the abatement work. The owner, occupant, lessee, and other interested holder in the premises shall be given notice of the proposed summary abatement in advance if such notice is consistent with the public welfare. (Ord. 2004-10 § 5(part), 2004; Ord. 01-107 § 3(part), 2001).
