Code Enforcement Officer, actual and immediate danger from a building or structure's
collapse so as to endanger public safety, life or property, or actual or immediate
menace to health or public welfare as a result of the conditions present in

the necessary work to be done to render such building or structure temporarily
safe, whether the procedure prescribed in this chapter for unsafe or dangerous
buildings or structures has been instituted or not.

mail, shall post on the premises a notice to comply containing a description
of the premises, a statement of the facts in which the structure is unsafe
or dangerous and orders and directions to correct said conditions which constitute
an emergency within a specified period not to exceed three days from actual
or constructive receipt of the notice.
