Service by mail shall be deemed to have been completed at the time of deposit in the post office.

(Prior code § 1-10)
Notwithstanding the notice of public hearing provisions of Chapter 15.16, or any other chapter of this code, the notice required to be given to a property owner or other responsible person prior to a public hearing may be shortened to any reasonable period of time upon declaration by a city official that a prompt public hearing is urgent for the preservation of the public health, safety, or welfare.
