Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary, the city may proceed pursuant to Utah code sections 10-11-1 through 10-11-4 without complying with any of the provisions of this title. In addition, the city may take any or all of the remedies identified in this code (administrative, civil or criminal) to abate a violation and/or to punish any person or entity who creates, causes or allows a violation to exist. The abatement of a nuisance does not prejudice the right of the city or any person to recover damages or penalties for its past existence. (Ord. 08-14, 7-9-2008)
