(1) The Director shall pursue only the minimum level of correction or abatement as necessary to eliminate the immediacy of a hazard. Costs incurred by the City during the emergency abatement process shall be assessed and recovered against the responsible person.

(2) The Director may also pursue any other administrative or judicial remedy to abate any remaining violations.

(3) After an emergency abatement, the City shall, within ten (10) days, serve a notice of itemized bill for costs to the responsible person for the abatement action taken. Such notice shall include a description of the imminent life safety hazard.

(4) A responsible person has the right to an administrative enforcement hearing. A request for such hearing shall be in writing and shall be filed within ten (10) days from the date of service of the notice of itemized bill for costs. Failure to request an administrative enforcement hearing as provided herein shall constitute a waiver to an administrative enforcement hearing and a waiver to the right to appeal.
