None of the provisions of this chapter shall be construed to prevent any
measures of construction, alteration, removal, demolition or relocation

constitute an immediate threat to public health and safety by the County
Building Official, and
2. The proposed measures have been declared necessary
by such official to correct the said condition, and

prior to the Commission’s review, that amount of repair necessary to
correct an unsafe condition. (Ord. 2493, 10/18/77; 3445, 8/23/83; 3930,
