(A) Within 15 calendar days after it has been finally determined that a public nuisance exists as defined in §160.03(B):
(1) All persons responsible therefor shall vacate the premises;
(2) The owner shall initiate such legal action as is necessary to vacate all persons responsible therefor from the premises, and shall diligently prosecute such legal action to a conclusion.
(B) After the last person responsible for the public nuisance has vacated the premises, the owner shall keep such premises vacant for a period of up to 365 calendar days, unless, the owner and every person responsible for the public nuisance who wishes to occupy the premises, each file a bond naming the City of West Carrollton, Ohio as oblige, with sureties to be approved by the Chief Code Enforcement Officer. The bond shall be in the amount of the value of the property, as determined by the Chief Code Enforcement Officer. The Chief Code Enforcement Officer may make such determination on the basis of the total market value of the land and improvements, as shown on the Montgomery County auditor's current valuation record, or on the basis of any other reliable evidence. The bond shall be conditioned that such owner and other responsible persons responsible for the nuisance will immediately abate such public nuisance and prevent the same from being established or kept during the 365 day period. The bond shall be posted for a full 365 days.
