(A) The Director of Planning and Development shall present to the City Council annually, on or before the date provided in § 43.20 for delivery of the proposed annual budget to the City Clerk, and from time to time thereafter, a list of buildings which the Department of Planning and Development has identified and believe are dangerous and unsafe or uncompleted and abandoned buildings within the territory of the city which are determined by the Department of Planning and Development to be in need of demolition, repair, enclosure or remediation. The list shall include, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) Street address, parcel identification number or other information necessary to identify the location of the property; and
(2) For budgetary purposes, the aggregate sum estimated by the Department of Planning and Development to pay the costs of demolition, repair, enclosure or remediation of the listed properties. Properties shall be listed in order of priority according to each property's relative deterioration or danger.
(B) Upon review and approval of the list by the City Council, the Director of Planning and Development may take all actions necessary, including the commencement of proceedings under ILCS Ch. 65, Act 5, §§ 1-1-1 et seq. to demolish, repair, enclose or remediate the listed buildings.
(C) The list may be supplemented and resubmitted for further review if, in the judgment of the Director of Planning and Development, a listed property requires higher priority due to subsequent deterioration, or if previously unlisted properties subsequently become sufficiently dangerous or unsafe to warrant inclusion on the list, or due to remediation by an owner or other interested party a property should be removed from the list.
(D) The provisions of this subchapter shall supplement, and shall not exclude, any other enforcement activities available to the Inspection Office under the provisions of this chapter and Chapter 93.
