               Upon investigation, the county enforcement officer may order the removal of the abandoned
               or dilapidated mobile home, as defined in this article, after finding, in writing,
               that the aesthetic benefits of removing the mobile home outweigh the burdens imposed
               upon the private property owner. Such findings should be based on the balancing of
               the monetary loss of the apparent owner against the corresponding gain to the public
               by promoting or enhancing the community, neighborhood or area appearance. The following,
               among other relevant factors, may be considered:
