(2) An order issued pursuant to subsection (1) must require all occupants of the dwelling to vacate the dwelling within not less than 24 hours and not more than 10 days after the date the order was issued and state the reasons why the occupants must vacate the dwelling.

(3) If the occupants of the dwelling do not vacate the premises within the time period specified under subsection (1), the health officer or other appropriate public official, as the mayor may designate, may cause the dwelling to be vacated.

(4) The health officer or other appropriate public official, as the mayor may designate, may revoke the order issued pursuant to subsection (1) or extend the time period within which to comply with the order, if he or she is satisfied that the danger from the dwelling has ceased to exist or that the dwelling is fit for human habitation.
