Upon the filing of the verified petition, the court may issue an order to show cause returnable in five days after service upon the owner why the lot shall not be reconditioned or the deficiencies corrected, or why the lot shall not be diverted to other lawful uses or destroyed.
The owner of the lot may, prior to the date when the order to show cause is returnable, either recondition or correct the deficiencies in the lot so as to bring it into compliance, or may file at or before the hearing on the order an answer with the court stating why the lot should not be reconditioned or the deficiencies corrected so as to bring it into compliance, or showing why it should not be diverted to other lawful uses or destroyed.
