(A) Such notice shall specifically describe the public nuisance and shall direct the owner or the occupant of the private property where the public nuisance exists or the person causing, permitting, or maintaining such nuisance to abate or remove such nuisance within 24 hours of service or posting of the notice. In the event such owner, occupant, or person cannot be located after reasonable inquiry, posting shall be sufficient notice. The notice shall state that, unless such nuisance is so abated or removed, the village will cause it to be abated or removed, that the cost thereof will be charged to the owner, occupant, or person causing, permitting, or maintaining the nuisance, and that such cost shall be a lien on the real property where the nuisance was abated or removed.
(B) Upon determining that a public nuisance exists and that there is no great and immediate danger to the public health, safety, peace, morals, or decency, the inspector shall mail or cause to be mailed to the owner or occupant of such premises or to the person or persons in whose name such real estate was last billed for property tax purposes a notice to demand the abatement or removal of the violation within ten days. A copy of the notice shall be posted on the premises. The notice shall be substantially the same as that provided in division (A) above.
(C) In the event a nuisance is not abated or removed after notice pursuant to this section and within the time specified in the notice, the inspector may cause the abatement or removal of such public nuisance. The reasonable cost thereof shall be a lien on the real property where the nuisance was abated or removed.
(D) The village may also institute injunctive court action in the event a nuisance is not abated or removed after notice pursuant to this section and within the time specified in the notice and the inspector determines that abatement or removal of the nuisance by the village is inappropriate.
