The City may, in addition to other specific enforcement authority granted hereunder or otherwise available to it, by resolution, based upon sworn affidavit or specific Council complaint, issue a temporary restraining order enjoining the alleged violation of any of the provisions of this chapter, license or permit issued hereunder, or the rules and regulations issued pursuant hereto. Such order shall direct the alleged violator to immediately cease and desist from the act or acts described therein until the Council determines with certainty whether or not a violation has occurred. Such temporary restraining order shall be issued by resolution of the Council and only after the Council shall determine that reasonable ground exists or believes such violation has occurred as stated. If the complainant be other than the Council itself, such order must be based upon sworn affidavit of complainant, setting forth allegations of the alleged violation which shall specify in language sufficient to apprise the alleged violator of the act or acts proposed to be enjoined. The order shall direct the alleged violator to appear at a certain time and place before the Council as stated therein to show cause, if there be any, why the alleged violator should not be immediately enjoined from doing the act or acts specified in the order. Should the Council determine at said show cause hearing that the alleged violator has committed the violation of this chapter as alleged the Council may make and enter order permanently enjoining further violation and may, if it deem appropriate, invoke appropriate penalties or direct appropriate remedial action to be taken concerning such violation. (Ord. 4-1993 § 21, 1993.)
