4-5-5: - RESPONSIBILITY FOR NUISANCES:

Any person or entity, whether as owner, manager, agent, renter, occupant, or the person(s) or entity who controls or who is in charge of any property, lot or premises, who creates, aids in creating, or contributes to a nuisance, or who supports, continues, or retains a nuisance, is responsible for the nuisance and is therefore a responsible person pursuant to this chapter. Every successive owner, tenant or responsible person of a property or premises who fails to abate a continuing nuisance upon or in the use of such property or premises caused by a former owner, tenant or responsible person is responsible therefor in the same manner as the one who first created it.
