(a) Whenever the Commissioner of Building finds any dwelling structure or premises, or any part thereof, to be in violation of any provision of this Residential Building Maintenance Code, he shall give notice in the same manner as service of summons in civil cases, or by certified mail addressed to the owner of record of the premises at his last known address or to the address to which tax bills are sent, or by a combination of the foregoing methods stating the violations therein. Such notice shall order the owner or operator within a stated reasonable period of time to repair or improve the structure or premises concerned.
(b) If the person to whom a notice of violation is addressed cannot be found within the County after reasonable and diligent search, then the notice may be sent by registered mail to the last known address of that person, and a copy of such notice shall be posted in a conspicuous place on the structure or premises to which it relates. Such mailing and posting shall be deemed legal service of notice.
