§ 430-8.010. Decisions.

(a)

The zoning administrator may impose such conditions and take such other action as he or she deems appropriate under the circumstances to carry out the purpose of this division. He or she may delay the time for removal of the vehicle or parts thereof, if in his or her opinion, the circumstances justify it. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the zoning administrator may find that there is an abandoned vehicle and order it abated and/or removed as a public nuisance and disposed of as hereinafter provided and determine the cost of abatement to be charged against the landowner. The order requiring removal shall include a description of the abandoned vehicle and the correct identification number and license number of the vehicle if available.

(b)

If it is determined at the hearing that the vehicle was placed on the land without the consent of the landowner and that he or she has not subsequently acquiesced in its presence, the zoning administrator shall not assess the cost of abatement (administration and removal) against the property upon which the vehicle is located or otherwise attempt to collect such costs from such landowner.

(Ords. 95-2 § 4, 86-58 § 3, 77-112).
