A. At the written request of an owner or occupant ordered to remove or abate said weeds, objectionable conditions or objects from his real property, the governing body shall conduct an informal hearing (which need not be reported) wherein said owner or occupant may present such evidence and argument as is pertinent to the question of whether or not the removal or abatement of said objects or conditions is properly within the purview of this chapter. The Board shall also permit the presentation of evidence and argument by the inspector and other interested parties. Thereafter within not more than ten days the governing body shall over the signature of the Mayor, or such other member of the governing body as it may designate by resolution, render its written decision, a copy of which shall be mailed to or served upon the owner or occupant by the inspector.

B. In the event the decision of the governing body upholds the determination of the inspector, the notice originally given by the inspector as above provided shall be deemed to be sufficient to require the owner or occupant to remove or abate said objects or conditions and he shall have up to ten days from the date of notice of the decision within which to conform thereto.

C. In the event that the decision of the governing body either overrules or modifies the determination of the inspector, the written decision of the governing body shall apprise him of that fact and set forth the details and extent to which the owner or occupant must make removal or other abatement of the said objects or conditions, if any. The owner or occupant shall be required to conform to the decision of the governing body within ten days after service or mailing of a copy of said decision and said decision shall be deemed to be the modified decision of the inspector.

D. The inspector shall file an amended notice and proof of service of said notice and file the same in the office of the county treasurer. (Prior code § 16-10(e))
