Sec. 2-269. - Alternative remedies. Whenever practicable, the city attorney shall notify the owners, tenants or persons in possession of a property prior to initiating a suit under chapter 125. However, prior notice shall not be required if in the judgment of the city attorney the giving of notice would not be in the best interest of the public, including, but not limited to, instances where the severity of the situation justifies immediate legal action or situations where there is reason to believe that the owners, tenants or persons in possession might attempt to avoid service if they were aware of the filing of a suit. (Ord. No. 94-923, § 3, 9-7-94)
