    In addition to other proceedings authorized by this subchapter, a municipality shall have the right to secure structures which pose a serious threat to the public health and safety and to recover its expenses in so doing as provided in this subchapter. If a building is secured under this section, notice, in accordance with section 2851, subsection 1, shall be given. This notice need not be given before securing the structure if the threat to the public health and safety requires prompt action. [1979, c. 27, § 6 (new).]
