- The property owner has approximately seven days after notification to bring the property into compliance.
- Failure to correct violations could result in any of the following actions: issuance of citation, appearance in Environmental Court or work being done by a contractor.
- If contracted, the owner would receive an invoice for the work performed in addition to any administrative or investigation fees.
- Failure to pay the invoice could result in a lien being placed against the property.
