c. Such notice shall contain a description of the dwelling, and a
statement of the particulars in which the dwelling is deemed to be an
untenanted hazard, and the order that the dwelling or part thereof be
demolished. Such notice and order shall require the person thus served
to certify within ten days thereafter to the department his assent or
refusal to demolish the same.
d. If such demolition is not commenced within twenty-one days after
the mailing and posting of such notice and order, such department shall
then serve all such aforementioned persons further notice to the effect
that on a certain day it will apply to the special term of the supreme
court for the hearing of motions for the county in which such premises
are located, or to the housing part of the New York city civil court, if
the premises are located in the city of New York, for an order declaring
such untenanted hazard to exist and directing the demolition of such
premises or part thereof.
e. Such court shall, if it finds the statements in the notice to be
true, direct that, if within five days after the order is entered it is
not complied with, the department may proceed with the execution of such
order through contractors in accordance with the provisions of local
laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of the city applicable to the
letting of contracts for public works, or through its own officers,
agents or employees.
f. The expenses and disbursements incurred by the department in
carrying out such orders shall be met from any appropriation for such
purpose or, to the extent that no such appropriation has been made or
that any such appropriation is insufficient, from the proceeds of the
sale of obligations pursuant to the local finance law.
