(1) Upon issuance of a notice of determination of chronic nuisance property as provided in PMC 9.95.060, the City Attorney may initiate an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to abate a chronic nuisance transient accommodation property, to impose penalties pursuant to this chapter, to seek alternative remedies under City or state laws and seek any other relief authorized by law.

(2) Nothing in this chapter prohibits the City from taking any emergency action for the summary closure of such property when it is necessary to avoid an immediate threat to public welfare and safety. The City may take summary action to close the property without complying with the notification provisions of PMC 9.95.060, but shall provide such notice as is reasonable under the circumstances. [Ord. 4532 § 2, 2021; Ord. 4289 § 1, 2016; Code 1970 § 9.63.100. Formerly 9.95.100.]
