What is the secondary method of notice used when primary notice is unsuccessful?

The secondary method of notice commonly used when primary notice efforts are unsuccessful is posting. This approach involves placing a notice in a conspicuous location on the property in question or another relevant site, making it visible to the community, and particularly to the owner or occupants.

Posting serves several important purposes. It ensures that even if initial attempts to reach an individual through direct communication, such as mailing or personal delivery, have not worked, there is still a method of conveying important information regarding code enforcement activities. This method also creates a public record that the notice was issued, which can be crucial for legal and procedural clarity in enforcement actions.

By employing this method, authorities can reach a wider audience and ensure that individuals are made aware of compliance issues, potential violations, or upcoming hearings. Posting is often required by law or regulation as a last resort when other forms of notification do not yield results.
