Sec. B11-87. Notice of violation.

The Director may provide a notice of intent to record a notice of violation to the owner of property upon which a failing or substandard sewage disposal system exists. Notice will be provided to the property owner by mail at the address shown on the latest assessment roll or at any other address of the owner known to the Director. The notice will also be posted on the property. The notice will state that within 15 days of the date of the notice, the property owner may request a meeting with the Director to present evidence that a violation does not exist.

If within 15 days of the date of the notice the property owner does not request a meeting and the violation has not been corrected, or if, after considering the evidence presented by the property owner at the meeting, the Director determines that a code violation in fact exists, the Director may record a notice of violation in the office of the County Recorder. Upon recording the notice, the Director will notify the owner of the action. The notice is to inform all parties that no improvements, including building additions, can be approved while the failing or substandard sewage disposal system continues in operation.

At the request of any affected property owner and upon full payment of any fees established by resolution for recovery of associated enforcement costs and payment of any fee for the recordation of the notice of violation, the Director will issue a notice of expungement of violation upon proof to the Director that the noticed violation has been remedied. The notice of expungement may be recorded by the property owner at his or her expense.
