A. Preliminary Notice. Proceedings to require the closure of any driveway as required by subsection (d) of Section 8.64.070 shall be commenced by a written notice given by the director of public works of the city to the owner of the property involved, which notice shall specify the legal description and street address of the property involved and describe the condition to be corrected, and shall notify the owner to correct the condition within thirty days from the date such notice is given. The notice shall further specify a date, no less than thirty days subsequent to the date of giving the preliminary notice, on which the matter will be reported to the City Council for formal action in the event of noncompliance with the preliminary notice. Service of the notice shall be made in person on the owner, or by United States mail addressed to the owner at his last known address. In the event the occupant of the premises is someone other than the owner, a copy of such notice shall also be mailed to that occupant at the address of the property involved.

B. Final Notice--City Council Action. In the event the condition described in the preliminary notice is not corrected within the thirty-day period provided by such notice, the director of public works shall report to the City Council, on the date specified in the preliminary notice, the fact of the giving of the preliminary notice and of noncompliance therewith. The report shall include the legal description and street address of the property involved and a description of the condition sought to be corrected. On the receipt of such report, the City Council may, by resolution, require the owner to close the driveway and replace any such driveway approach with a standard curb and sidewalk, as may be necessary for compliance with the preliminary notice. The resolution shall further provide for a final notice to be given to the same persons and in the same manner as provided for giving a preliminary notice, which final notice shall require that the condition be corrected within fifteen days from the date such final notice is given: and the notice shall further include notification that in the event of the failure of the owner to comply with the notice, the driveway approach will be replaced with a standard curb and sidewalk by the city with the actual cost of such replacement to be charged to the owner, with such charge to constitute a lien on the property.

C. The provisions of Sections 8.64.020, 8.64.030 and 8.64.040 pertaining to permit requirements, shall apply to work performed by persons other than the city as a result of any notices given pursuant to this section. (Ord. 1817 § 1, 1975).
