This article provides for three classes of exterior code violations
as defined and retained by the Code Enforcement Officer. The classes are as
follows:
A. Class "A" violations are deemed nonhazardous. Owners
must correct "A" violations within 90 days, or within the time frame established
by a long-term rehabilitation contract, and certify their repair to remove
the violation. Failure to comply will result in a penalty of $10 to $50 per
violation per day, from the required correction date until the violation is
corrected.
B. Class "B" violations are deemed hazardous. Owners must
correct "B" violations within 30 days and certify their repair within two
weeks to remove the violation. Failure to comply will result in a penalty
of $25 to $100, plus $10 per day, from the required correction date until
the violation is corrected.
C. Class "C" violations are deemed immediately hazardous.
Owners must correct "C" violations within 24 hours and certify their repair
within five days to remove the violation. The City independently begins legal
action for major Class "C" violations. Failure to comply will result in a
penalty of $50 per violation per day for buildings with four or fewer units;
$50 to $150 per violation, plus $125 per violation per day for buildings with
more than four units.
