  • In the event the owner of any lot or premises upon which a condition described in this article exists fails to correct, remedy or remove such condition within two (2) days or seven (7) days (depending on violation) after notice and order to do so is given in accord with this article, the city may do such work or make such improvements as are necessary to correct, remedy or remove such condition, or cause the same to be done, and pay therefor and charge the expenses incurred thereby to the owner of such lot or the lot abutting the public right-of-way. Such expenses shall be assessed against the lot or real estate or the property abutting the public right-of-way upon which the work was done or the improvements made. The doing or causing of such work by the city shall not relieve such person from prosecution in municipal court for failure to comply with the notice and order under either subsection 16-48(b).
