Enfield, Conn., Code of Ordinances ch. 14, art. III § 14-66

(a) Notice of violation. Whenever the building official determines that there are reasonable grounds to believe that there has been a violation of any provision of this article, he shall give notice of such alleged violation to the person or persons responsible therefor, as hereinafter provided. Such notice shall:
(1) Be in writing;
(2) Include a statement of the reason why it is being issued;
(3) Allow a reasonable time, as determined by the building official for the performance of any act it requires;
(4) Be served upon the owner or his agent, or the occupant, as the case may require; provided, that such notice shall be deemed to be properly served upon such owner or agent, or upon such occupant, if a copy thereof is served upon him personally or if a copy thereof is sent by certified mail to his last known address; or if a copy thereof is posted in a conspicuous place in or about the dwelling affected by the notice; or if he is served with such notice by any, other method authorized or required under the laws of this state;
(5) Contain an outline of remedial action which, if taken, will effect compliance with the provisions of this article and with rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto;
(6) Contain an outline of the appeal procedure, as provided in this section.
(b) Right of appeal. Any person aggrieved by any notice which has been issued in connection with the enforcement of any provision of this housing code may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the housing code appeals board, provided such person shall file in the office of the town manager a written petition requesting such hearing and setting forth a statement of the grounds for such appeal within five business days after the notice was served. Upon receipt of such petition, the town manager shall set a time and place for such hearing and shall give the petitioner at least five business days written notice thereof; provided, that: Whenever the building official finds that an emergency exists which requires immediate action to protect the public health, he may, without requirement of hearing, issue an order reciting the existence of such an emergency and requiring that such action be taken as he deems necessary to meet the emergency. Notwithstanding the other provisions of the section, such order shall be effective immediately. Any person to whom such order is directed shall comply therewith immediately, but upon petition to the town manager shall be afforded a hearing as soon as possible. After such hearing, depending upon the finding as to whether the provisions of this housing code have been complied with, the building official shall continue such order in effect, or modify it, or revoke it.
(c) Noncompliance with orders; remedies. In case any order is not promptly complied with, the building official shall proceed in accordance with either of the following procedures unless the order has been appealed.
(1) The building official may request the town attorney or state's attorney to institute an appropriate action or proceeding at law or in equity against the person or persons responsible for the violation, ordering him to:
a. Restrain, correct or remove the violation or refrain from any further execution of work;
b. Restrain or correct the erection, installation, or alteration of such building;
c. Require the removal of work in violation;
d. Prevent the occupation or use of the building, structure, or part thereof erected, constructed, installed or altered in violation of, or not in compliance with the provisions of this housing code, or in violation of a plan or specification under which an approval, permit or certificate was issued.
(2) The building official may, in appropriate cases where the severity of the situation requires more immediate and definitive remedial action, request that the town do the required work, or employ the necessary services and/or materials to do such work, as may be called for to correct the violation. All expenses (including overhead) incurred by the town in making such corrections shall be charged against the person or persons responsible for the violation. If such person shall fail to pay such expenses and overhead, within 30 days after being billed by the town, all such sums shall constitute a lien upon the property involved. Such lien may be satisfied out of said property as may be authorized by state law.
(3) The building official may proceed with the enforcement of the penalty provisions of this housing code.
(d) Penalty for violations. Every person who shall violate any provision of this housing code or shall fail to comply with any of the requirements thereof, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished as provided in section 1-13 . Each day that a violation continues after due notice has been served in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, shall be deemed a separate offense. The imposition of the penalty herein prescribed shall not preclude recourse to the preceding provisions of this section prescribing procedures for the abatement or correction of violations of this housing code.
