D. If an incomplete complaint is received, the date on which the originally filed complaint was received is considered the filed date if a complete copy is received within three (3) business days of notification from the City Clerk that the complaint was incomplete. E. If the City Clerk determines that the complaint was not timely filed, has not specifically identified a violation of Article XXVIII or the FCPA, or that the complainant did not assert facts or provide information sufficient to support the alleged violations, the City Clerk will dismiss the complaint and notify the complainant and respondent of the reasons for dismissal. The City Clerk's dismissal is a final decision, and subject to review under Rule 106 of the Colorado Rules of Civil Procedure. F. If the complaint is not dismissed pursuant to Subsection E, the City Clerk shall issue notice to the respondent by personal service, regular mail or electronic mail. The notice of violation shall: 1. Cite the section or sections of Article XXVIII or the FCPA the person allegedly violated and a general description of the violation. 2. Allow seven (7) business days for the correction of the violation or submission of a written statement explaining the reason that supports a conclusion that a violation was not committed. 3. Set forth the applicable civil fine for each violation, except that no such fine shall be due or payable if the person cures the violation within seven (7) business days of the date of the notice of violation. 4. Allow fourteen (14) business days for submission of a written request for an informal hearing before a hearing officer. G. In the event the violation cannot be cured by complying with the reporting requirements in Article XXVIII or the FCPA, the person shall propose an alternative resolution to cure the violation to the City Clerk. The City Clerk shall have the discretion to accept, recommend an alternative, or decline the proposed alternative resolution. Acceptance of an alternative resolution by the City Clerk is deemed to be a cure of the violation if made within seven (7) business days of the date of the notice of violation. H. If the person fails to cure or otherwise remedy the violation, the person shall within fourteen (14) days of the date of the notice of violation either pay the fine or contest the violation by submitting to the City Clerk a written request for hearing.
