(A) Nothing in this chapter shall prohibit the city from taking immediate action to abate a nuisance when there is reason to believe that the violation presents a serious threat to the public health, safety and welfare, or if in the absence of immediate action, the effects of the violation will be irreparable or irreversible.
(B) The city through the City Attorney, may also initiate a summary closure proceeding in the Campbell Circuit Court. Such an action shall be based on evidence showing that the criminal nuisance activities exist, or have occurred on the property and that such action is necessary to avoid a threat to the public health, welfare, or safety. Proceedings to obtain an order of summary closure shall be governed by the provisions of applicable Kentucky law for obtaining temporary restraining orders. In the event of summary closure, the city is not required to comply with the notification procedures set forth in §§ 90.04 and 90.05. As part of any summary closure order, the Circuit Court may revoke or suspend the occupational license of any person conducting any business on or about the property where the criminal activity nuisance exists.
