§ 3116. Building taken down; penalty
When such report declares such structure to be unsafe, and when the owner, agent,
or person interested continues such refusal or neglect, the inspector shall cause
it to be taken down or otherwise made safe. The costs and charges incurred shall
constitute a lien upon the land upon which such building is situated, and shall be
enforced within the time and in the manner provided for the collection of taxes on
land. For every day’s continuance of such refusal or neglect, the owner or person
interested shall forfeit to the city, town, or incorporated village in which such
structure is situated not more than $50.00 nor less than $10.00, to be recovered in
a civil action on this statute.
