It shall be unlawful to permit any unfinished structure, dwelling, garage, outbuilding, factory, shop, store, warehouse or other building to stand unfinished in the village wherever such use shall constitute a menace to public health and safety or contribute to the blight of a neighborhood. This section shall be applicable wherever construction was begun in an authorized manner and no work in good faith has been done for a continuous period of six months toward completing the structure or building, or wherever a building or structure has been moved upon the premises and is permitted to stand unfinished for a continuous period of six months or longer. Whenever the strict enforcement of this section would work an unnecessary hardship, the Village Council may grant such extension of time for the completion of the building or structure as may be deemed just under all the facts and circumstances so long as good faith is demonstrated by the appellant and the spirit of this subchapter is preserved.

The Chief of Police on his or her own authority may remove or cause to be removed any junk vehicle or abandoned vehicle, or parts of either, from any public street without notice of any kind to the owner. In those cases where junk vehicles or abandoned vehicles, or parts of either, are stored on any unenclosed private property, the Village Council may authorize the Chief of Police to serve notice, in writing, on the owner or occupant of such property or the owner of the vehicle, if known, of the village’s intention to remove such vehicle. Such notice shall be served personally upon the owner or occupant or it may be posted in a conspicuous place upon vacant or unoccupied property and shall be served or posted at least seven days prior to such removal. Failure to remove any junk vehicle or abandoned vehicle, or parts of either, within the time specified in such notice shall constitute a violation of this subchapter. Such junk vehicles or abandoned vehicles, or parts of either, shall be removed and disposed of in accordance with the law. Such removal by the designated enforcement official shall not excuse or relieve any person of the obligation imposed by this subchapter to keep his or her property free from storage or accumulation of junk vehicles or abandoned vehicles, or parts of either, nor from the penalties for violation thereof.
