Any person as apiary owner or possessor who violates any provision of this chapter may be the addressee of a written notice to cease or remedy such violation, the notice coming from the code enforcement officer of the city. Said notice shall require that such person cease or remedy the violation within forty-eight (48) hours. The notice required by this section shall be sent by registered mail (return receipt requested), and also shall be posted at a conspicuous place on or near the apiary where the violation has occurred. The forty-eight (48) hour period specified by such notice shall commence to run from the time both mailing and posting have been accomplished. Failure of the addressee of such notice to receive the same shall have no effect on the validity of such notice. (Ord. 182 § 2, 1998)
