18.84.030 Correction of violations.
A. Upon the land use administrator finding a violation of any of the provisions of this title, the land use administrator shall notify the owner, manager or lessee of the property, or person responsible for the violation in writing and shall order the necessary correction within a period of ninety (90) days or such earlier time as may be reasonable. The land use administrator may order remedial action immediately upon a determination by the public works director, the police chief or the fire chief that there is an immediate and significant danger to life, limb or property. The owner and the person to whom the order is directed, if other than the owner, shall comply with the order and each such person is liable for failure to comply. Failure to comply is a violation of this section. The issuance of an order of correction does not suspend, reduce or eliminate the violation that is the subject of the order. Such violation continues until corrected.
B. The land use administrator may order:
1. The discontinuation of unlawful uses of land or structures;
2. The removal or abatement of unlawful structures or any unlawful additions or alterations thereto;
3. The discontinuation of construction or other preparatory activity leading to an unlawful structure or an unlawful use of a land or structure;
4. When appropriate to ensure compliance with this title, the suspension or revocation of site plan permits, conditional use permits, variances or other city land use entitlements. [Ord. 01-05 § 8.]
