§27-2129 Statement of Account

Whenever the department has incurred expenses for the repair of a dwelling or for the elimination of any dangerous or unlawful conditions therein, pursuant to this article or any other provision of the administrative code or any other applicable provision of law, the department, its authorized representative, or the department of finance may send to the owner or his or her designee in the manner provided in section 11-129 of the administrative code a statement of account with the expense incurred and a demand for payment thereof. If the owner does not notify the department in writing of his or her objection to the first statement of account containing such charge before the date that such charge becomes due and payable as provided in subdivision b of section 27-2144 of article eight of this subchapter, such owner may not in any subsequent judicial or administrative proceeding contest the expense contained in such statement. The department will only review such objections that are received by it in writing on or prior to the due and payable date for the charge provided on the second statement of account containing such charge.
