§ 14-6.412. Service.

The notice and order to abate will be served by the method specified either in subsection (a) or (b).

(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, and addressed to anyone known to the county abatement officer to be in possession of the property at the street address of the property being abated. Service is deemed completed upon the deposit of the notice and order to abate, postage pre-paid, in the United States mail. Simultaneously, the notice and order to abate may be sent by regular mail. If the notice and order to abate sent by certified mail is returned unsigned, then service is deemed effective pursuant to regular mail. Posting of the notice and order to abate 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. The failure of a person to receive a properly addressed service shall not affect the validity of the proceedings.

(b)

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