Whenever it comes to the attention of the chief of environmental health that any condition exists within the City which may constitute a public nuisance, as defined in this title, the chief of environmental health shall cause the matter to be investigated and, if the investigation so warrants, shall declare such condition to be a public nuisance. The declaration shall specify the nature and location of the condition, the measures necessary to abate such condition, and the date of the declaration. In the event the property owner fails to abate the nuisance as requested by the chief of environmental health and when additional work by the City is required, a fee for investigation and inspection will be charged, which fee is set forth in Section 12.04.030 of this code. Said fee shall be included with other costs of abatement incurred by City, and said costs shall be deemed a lien as set forth in Section 11.40.120 of this code.
