(a) Should the owner fail to pay the annual inspection fee for which provision hereinabove is made, after demand has been made therefor to such owner, or to the owner's agent or representative, either personally or by certified mail sent to the address of the premises adjoining such sub-space, the Commissioner is hereby authorized to revoke and cancel the Sub-space Occupancy Permit which was issued for the use of such sub-space, and further to certify the matter to the Director of Law, who is hereby authorized to bring suit for the collection of the inspection fee which is due from such owner.
(b) For the purpose of complying with this section, any owner shall be deemed to have irrevocably designated and appointed any tenant occupying that part of the building used in connection with such sub-space as the owner's agent for the service of any notice to be served under any provision of this section. Should any structure adjoining any sub-space be demolished, the owner shall cause the sub-space to be filled and the surface of the pavement above the same to be restored to a substantial condition, and upon the failure of the owner so to do for thirty (30) days after such demolition, the Commissioner shall without notice cause the same to be done and shall proceed in connection therewith as hereinabove set forth. The provisions of this section, however, shall not in any way limit or restrict other rights which the City may have under this chapter to penalize such violation, collect such fees, or to recover the cost or expense incurred by the City in filling such sub-space or restoring the surface of the pavement or street above the same.
