If the owner of any premises fails or neglects to remove or otherwise take action to abate the public nuisance, as herein defined, any aggrieved person may, in addition to any other right or remedy they may possess either at law or in equity, bring a civil action against the owner for damages or injunctive relief for the maintenance of a public nuisance. The court may award the prevailing party in such action the costs of litigation, including reasonable attorney’s fees. Actions under this section must be filed within one year of the act or condition giving rise to a public nuisance. (Ord. 1206 § 1, 1991)
