600 of this Chapter. If the City elects to make the amount of any Penalty a special assessment or lien against the Affected Property, a statement of the amount due, and any additional costs or expenses that might be recoverable as part of the enforcement action, shall be prepared and submitted to the City Council for confirmation in accordance with the procedures described in Section 1-12-600. c. Notwithstanding subsection (b), the amount of any unpaid Penalty maybe collected by commencement of a civil action to collect such Penalty, or in any other manner provided by law for the collection of debts, including assignment of the debt to a collection agency. Subject to the requirements of this Chapter and other applicable law, amounts assigned for collection are subject to collection agency rules, regulations and policies. The City shall be entitled to recover any and all costs associated with collection of any such Penalty. d. The payment of a Penalty by or on behalf of any Responsible Party shall not relieve such Party from the responsibility of correcting, removing or abating the violation, nor prevent further proceedings under this Chapter or any other lawful authority to achieve the enforced correction, removal or abatement of the violation. 1-12-420 Hearings a. Any person appealing a Notice of Violation must obtain a "Request for Hearing" form from the City Clerk and return it fully completed within fifteen (15) days from the date of service of the Notice of Violation. At the time of returning the Request for Hearing Form to the City Clerk, the person or entity requesting the appeals hearing shall pay an appeals processing fee established by the City Council. Failure to submit a completed appeals form or to pay the appeals processing fee constitutes a waiver of the right to appeal the Notice of Violation and a failure to exhaust administrative remedies. b. The hearing on appeal shall be set for a date not less than fifteen (15) days nor more than sixty (60) days from the date the Request for Hearing form is filed, unless the Enforcement Officer determines that the matter is urgent or that good cause exists for an extension of time, in which case the date for such hearing may be shortened, or extended, as warranted by the circumstances. The hearing set pursuant to an order in the Notice of Violation shall be set for a date not less than fifteen (15) days nor more than sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of Violation is served, unless the Enforcement Officer determines that the matter is urgent or that good cause exists for an extension of time, in which case the date for such hearing may be shortened, or extended, as warranted by the circumstances. d. A hearing under authority of this Section shall be conducted according to the procedures set forth in this subsection. The failure of any interested party to appear at the hearing shall constitute a waiver of the right to such hearing and a failure by such party to exhaust their administrative remedies.
