§ 11-230. Enforcement.

(a)

If the manager or an officer determines that a nuisance or other prohibited condition or conditions exist on a lot during an inspection, then the division shall notify the record owner or owners of the lot by regular United States mail, by hand delivery or posting of notice on the property of such nuisance or prohibited condition or conditions. Said notice shall advise the owner or owners that a nuisance or other prohibited condition exists on said lot or lots and that said nuisance or prohibited condition shall be abated by the owner or owners. The notice shall specify what corrective action shall be taken by the owner or owners to abate the nuisance or to correct the prohibited condition, and that failure to abate said nuisance or to correct said condition shall result in the issuance of a notice of violation and notice of hearing to said owner or owners to appear before the code enforcement board. The notice shall provide a reasonable time, in light of the nature of the nuisance or prohibited condition, to abate the nuisance or to correct the prohibited condition.

(b)

If the nuisance is not abated or the prohibited condition corrected by the time specified in the notice, the division shall schedule a hearing before the code enforcement board and issue a notice of violation and notice of hearing to the record owner or owners of the lot to appear before the code enforcement board.

(c)

If a violation of this article is found by the code enforcement board, the code enforcement board may issue all orders and written findings as permitted pursuant to F.S. Ch. 162 and this Code.
