If the violation continues after the timeframes specified in Section 10-5.1206 the Director shall issue an order to comply requiring that the violation be corrected or abated and that the operator come into compliance with the applicable law, regulation, or requirement. The order to comply shall be delivered by personal service or certified mail, with a copy sent to the Department. An order to comply issued pursuant to this Section shall take effect thirty (30) days following the service of the order to comply unless within those thirty (30) days the operator appeals the order and requests a hearing before the Planning Commission. The order shall specifically describe both the violation(s) and the remedial steps required for compliance. The order shall specify a time by which compliance must be completed, as determined by the Director. A reasonable amount of time shall be allowed to bring the operation into compliance, taking into account the seriousness of the violation, the potential harm to public health, safety, and the environment, and any good faith efforts to comply with the applicable requirements.
An appeal filed pursuant to this Section shall be noticed and heard at a public hearing within forty-five (45) days of the filing of the appeal or a longer period as may be mutually agreed upon by the operator and the County. Public notice of such hearing shall be given as set forth in Section 10-5.607 of this chapter. (§ 1, Ord. 1191, eff. September 5, 1996; as amended by Ord. 1518, eff. February 13, 2020)
