An owner of property where an illegal sign is displayed has the duty to remove all
illegal signs. If the Director of Buildings and Inspections finds an illegal sign,
the director has the duty to issue an order for the sign to be removed within 60 days.
The director has the duty to issue a notice of civil violation to an owner who fails
to comply with an order to remove an illegal sign. If the property owner is found
guilty of failing to comply with an order to remove an illegal sign, the director
has the duty to cause the illegal signs to be removed pursuant to § 1101-73, Removal of Unlawful Signs, of the Cincinnati Building Code.
