§ 14-12.018. Service.

All notices or decisions required to be served by this chapter will be served either by the method specified in subsection (a) or by the method specified in subsection (b). The failure of a person to receive a properly addressed service shall not affect the validity of the proceedings.

(a)

Certified mail and posting. Certified mail will be addressed to the owner at the address shown on the last equalized assessment roll or as otherwise known. Service is deemed completed upon the deposit of the notice or decision, postage pre-paid, in the United States mail. Simultaneously, the same notice or decision may be sent by regular mail. If a notice or decision sent by certified mail is returned unsigned, then service is deemed effective pursuant to regular mail. Posting of the notice or decision will be conspicuously on or in front of the property. If the property has no frontage, posting will be on the portion of the property nearest to a street, highway, or road, or most likely to give actual notice to the owner.

(b)

Personal service. Personal service is deemed complete on the date the notice or decision is personally served.
