1. Whenever the Building Official ascertains that any building or private parking lot service equipment regulated in the technical codes has become hazardous to life, health, property, or becomes unsanitary, he shall order in writing that such equipment either be removed or restored to a safe or sanitary condition, whichever is appropriate. The written notice itself shall fix a time limit for compliance with such order. No person shall use or maintain defective building or private parking lot service equipment after receiving such notice.
