(A) If the town’s Board of Trustees causes a structure within the town limits to be boarded and secured, any subsequent need for boarding and securing within a six-month period constitutes a public nuisance and may be summarily boarded and secured without further prior notice to the property owner or mortgage holder.
(B) At the time of each such summary boarding and securing, the town shall notify the property owner and mortgage holder of the boarding and securing and the costs thereof. The notice shall state that the property owner may request an appeal with the town’s Clerk-Treasurer within ten days after the mailing of the notice. The notice and hearing shall be as provided in § 151.37 of this chapter. Unless otherwise determined at the hearing, the cost of such boarding and securing shall be determined and collected as provided in § 151.42 of this chapter.
