Such time shall not be less than 14 days. Such notice shall also advise the property owner of the right to request a hearing before the city administrator or designee to contest the contents of the notice. (b) If requested by the person upon whom the notice is served under subsection (a) of this section, a hearing before the city administrator or designee shall be held at which the person may contest the contents of the notice. The request for such a hearing must be made within five days after receipt of the notice provided for in subsection (a) of this section.
