To compel the removal of litter through the provisions of this subchapter, if a person owning or controlling any property fails, neglects or refuses to remove or properly dispose of litter, located on property owned or controlled by the person, he or she shall be given written notice by any duly authorized official of the town to remove all litter from the property prior to the date set on the notice for compliance, which notice shall be given not less than 30 days before the date set for compliance. The notice shall contain an estimate of the cost of removal by the town, a statement that, unless the person owning or controlling the property complies therewith prior to the date of compliance, the town will, at the expense of the person owning or controlling the property, perform the necessary work at a cost not to exceed the estimate given in the notice, and that the person may appeal in writing to the Council prior to the date of compliance on the notice.
