§ 18.20.180. Owner's responsibility for enforcement costs.

Latest version.

If the substandard conditions have not been corrected or the nuisance abated by the owner as directed within the time frame established by the Building Official, or as said time frame may be modified on appeal to the Board of Examiners, Appeals and Condemnation or City Council, all incidental enforcement costs incurred by the City in connection therewith shall be charged to and become an indebtedness of the owner of such property, except as provided below, whether or not the work is later performed by the City, by the owner, or by others. "Incidental enforcement costs" include, but are not limited to, the actual expenses and costs of the City in investigating the nuisance, obtaining title information, preparing notices, and performing inspections. Incidental enforcement costs shall not be charged to, nor become an indebtedness of, a property owner who is the head of a low-income household (defined to be a household earning less than eighty percent (80%) of the County median income).
