Sec. 15-21. Failure to remove nuisance, etc., after notice.

If any person, after being notified by the health officer to
remove anything belonging to him, or any nuisance caused
by him, or to bury or to destroy anything belonging to him,
or found on premises owned or occupied by him, shall fail
to do so within twenty-four hours after such notice, it shall
be the duty of the city manager to have the same done at
the expense of the city, which expense shall be reimbursed
to the city by the person through whose default the same incurred.
Such expense shall be in addition to any penalty imposed
pursuant to section 1-5 for failure to comply with the
order of the health officer. (Code 1959, § 15-21.)
