(A) If the Building Official determines that any rental unit fails to meet the licensing standards and conditions set forth herein, he/she shall mail a notice to the owner ("noncompliance notice"). The noncompliance notice shall be deemed sufficient if sent by regular first class mail to the owner at the address specified in the last license application filed with the city. A copy of the noncompliance notice shall also be conspicuously posted on the rental unit. The noncompliance notice shall specify the reasons for the rental unit's failure to meet the required applicable laws and shall include a copy of any inspection report, if applicable.
(B) The noncompliance notice shall indicate that the owner has thirty (30) days in which to correct the deficiency specified therein, after which time action may be taken to deny, refuse to renew, revoke or suspend the rental license. However, upon written request, the Building Official may grant an extension of the period for compliance where the work or other correction has been delayed despite good-faith compliance efforts and where such extension presents no immediate threat to the health and safety of the occupants of the rental unit.
(C) The owner shall, within the time period specified in the noncompliance notice, correct all deficiencies specified therein. If the owner fails to correct all deficiencies in the time period specified in the noncompliance notice, then the rental license may be revoked and the occupants therein ordered to vacate the premises pursuant to the suspension and revocation provision of this chapter specified in § 154.14 below.
(D) Non-compliant rental units shall be subject to re-inspections and fees for such re-inspection as set forth herein.
