Instead of issuing such warrant, the city police judge may order the issuance thereof stayed upon motion of the defendant, and upon the defendant’s entering into a bond to the city in such sum and with such surety as the police judge may direct, conditioned either that the defendant will discontinue the nuisance, or that within a time limited by the police judge, and not exceeding six months, he will cause it to be abated or removed, as either is directed by the judge, and upon his default to perform the condition of his bond, it shall be forfeited, and the police judge, upon being satisfied of the default, may order the warrant forthwith to issue, and issue a rule to show cause why judgment should not be entered against the sureties on the bond. The expense of abating a nuisance by virtue of a warrant shall be collected in accordance with procedure similar to that prescribed in Section 7.48.280 of the Revised Code of Washington.
