§ 34-296. Order to abate; abatement by city authorized.

Upon such hearing prescribed in section 34-295(3), the director of neighborhood and community services may declare the weeds to be a nuisance, and order such nuisance abated by the owner or occupant within five days to avoid a nuisance abatement action taken by the city and which would result in the issuance of a special tax bill. If the owner fails to cut down and remove such rank or noxious plants as ordered and fails to notify the director of such cutting, the director of neighborhood and community services may proceed to have the rank or noxious plants cut down.
