9-2-11: ASSESSMENT UPON FAILURE TO COMPLY:
If the owner or lessee of any building shall fail, refuse or neglect to place the number, or replace the number when necessary, the council may cause a notice to be personally served on the owner or lessee or mailed by registered mail to the last known address ordering him to place or replace the number. In case of failure to comply with such notice within ten (10) days from date of service, the council shall cause the same to be done, and assess the cost thereof against the property or premises numbered. The clerk shall immediately certify to the county clerk the amounts assessed as a special tax against the several properties, to be collected as other special taxes. (1953 R.C.)
