If the owner, agent or person in possession, charge or control of any building or structure or part thereof fails, neglects or refuses to place such building or structure or part thereof, occupied by him or her or under his or her control, in a safe condition, upon being directed to do so by the Building Inspector, and fails to adopt, within a reasonable time, such measures as have been specified by the Building Inspector, then, and in addition to the penalty provided in Section 1331.99, the Building Inspector may cause such building to be vacated, preventing the use of such building for any purpose whatsoever, until the same is placed in a safe condition by the owner, and if such building or structure is dangerous to adjoining property, the Building Inspector may order or cause such work to be done as may be necessary to remove the existing danger and charge the expense of such operations upon the tax duplicate, as a lien against such property.
