to be repaired, vacated or demolished must be commenced. 2. The agency shall issue an order directed to the owner and lienholder of the mobile

The order must contain: (a) The street address and legal description sufficient for identification of the

mobile home and premises upon which the mobile home is located, and the serial number

of the mobile home. (b) A statement that the agency has found the mobile home to be substandard with a

brief and concise description of the conditions found to render the mobile home substandard

under the provisions of this chapter. (c) A statement as follows of the action required to be taken as determined by the

agency: (1) If the agency has determined that the mobile home must be repaired, the order

must state that all required permits must be secured and the work physically commenced

within 60 days from the date of the order and completed within such time as the agency

shall determine is reasonable under all of the circumstances. (2) If the agency has determined that the mobile home must be vacated, the order must

state that the mobile home must be vacated within a certain time after the date of

the order as determined by the agency to be reasonable. (3) If the agency has determined that the mobile home must be demolished, the order

must state that the mobile home must be vacated within such time as the agency determines

is reasonable, not to exceed 60 days after the date of the order, that all required

permits must be secured within 60 days after the date of the order, and that the demolition

must be completed within such time as the agency determines is reasonable. (d) Statements advising that if any required repair or demolition work, where the

mobile home was not required to be vacated, is not commenced within the time specified,

the agency will order the mobile home vacated and posted to prevent further occupancy

until the work is completed, and may proceed to cause the work to be done and charge

the costs of repair as provided by this chapter. (e) Statements advising that any person having any title or legal interest in the

mobile home may appeal from the order or any action of the agency and that the appeal

must be made in writing and filed with the agency within 10 days after the date of

the service of the order and that failure to appeal constitutes a waiver of all rights
