If the Zoning Inspector finds that any sign is unsafe or hazardous, or has been constructed or is being maintained in violation of the provisions of this chapter, he or she shall give immediate written notice to the person for who or by whom the sign is erected or to the owner of the property upon which the sign is located. If the person fails to remove, repair or alter the sign so as to comply with the provisions of this chapter within ten days after such notice, such sign may be removed, repaired or altered by the Zoning Inspector at the expense of that person. The Zoning Inspector may cause any sign which is of immediate peril to persons or property, or erected or placed in violation with the provision of this chapter to summarily be removed without notice.
