a. Every owner of real property within the City is required to maintain such property in a manner so as not to violate the provisions of this section or this Code and such owner remains liable for violations thereof regardless of any contract or agreement with any third party regarding such property. This section imposes strict liability upon the owners of real property for all violations of this code that exist on their real property; regardless of a violator’s intent or knowledge.

The procedures for abatement shall not be exclusive and shall not in any manner limit or restrict the City from abating public nuisances in any other manner authorized by law.

c. The remedies, procedures and penalties provided by this chapter are cumulative to each other and to any others available under this Code or State law. The imposition of a fee or fine under this section shall not preclude the Enforcement Official from seeking all other remedial penalties available under this Code.

d. The City’s failure to provide notices within any time specified does not constitute waiver by the City of the provisions of this chapter. (Ord. #230-2019, S2)
