(A) Whenever the Housing Inspector determines that there are reasonable grounds to believe that there has been a violation of any provision of this chapter, he or she shall give notice of such alleged violation to the person or persons responsible therefor as hereinafter provided. Such notice shall be put in writing and include a statement of the reasons why it is being issued. Such notice shall allow a reasonable time for the performance of any act it requires. Any such notice must be served upon the owner or his or her agent, or the occupant, as the cause may require, provided that such notice shall be deemed to be properly served upon such owner or agent, or upon such occupant, if a copy thereof is served upon him personally, or if a copy thereof is sent by registered mail to his or her last known address, or if a copy thereof is posted in a conspicuous place in or about the dwelling affected by the notice if he or she is served with such notice by any other method authorized or required under the laws of this state.
(B) Such notice may contain an outline of remedial action which, if taken, will effect compliance with the provisions of this chapter and with rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto.
