Various methods for the removal, repair and securing of buildings, walls and other
structures which might endanger the public health or safety or the health or safety
of town residents are prescribed in other chapters of this Code, in the building and
fire prevention codes and in state and county laws, ordinances and regulations. It
is the intent of the town council in enacting this article to make it supplemental
to those other chapters, codes, laws, ordinances and regulations, and this article
shall be regarded as an alternative method for the removal, repair and securing buildings,
walls and other structures when such other methods are provided.
