If an abatement order requires or authorizes the city to abate a nuisance condition or to correct any other violation of this code, an authorized representative of the city may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for an abatement warrant authorizing an enforcement officer or any employee, authorized agent, representative or contractor of the city to enter onto any affected property to abate the nuisance condition. An abatement warrant, as contemplated in this section, shall be requested in the same manner, and be in substantially the same form, as an inspection warrant. The costs of obtaining the abatement warrant may be included as costs of abatement. The city shall seek the consent of the responsible party or owner to allow the city to perform the necessary work prior to seeking an abatement warrant from a court.
