§ 7.04.500. Lien procedure.

A. Record of Cost. The City Engineer shall keep an account of the cost of performing the abatement, including reasonable administrative costs, on each separate lot or parcel of land, and the name of the owner thereof. Such costs shall become, when confirmed, a special assessment against the property.

B. Council Appeal. Between the first and fifteenth day of July of each year, the City Manager shall cause to be published a notice to the effect that any owner upon whose property the City Engineer has performed any work hereunder during the preceding fiscal year may appeal therefrom to the Council. Such notice shall be published once in accordance with Government Code Section 6061. Any appeal shall state the grounds for appealing. At the next regular meeting of the City Council after the first day of August, it shall hold a hearing to confirm the costs and any appeals, and its determination thereupon shall be final.

C. Lien. After confirmation of the costs by the City Council, a certified copy of the confirmed report shall be filed with the County Auditor who shall enter each assessment on the tax roll against the respective premises. Such assessment shall be collected at the same time in the manner as ordinary municipal ad valorem taxes and shall be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure and sale in case of delinquency as provided for such taxes. All laws applicable to the levy, collection, and enforcement of municipal ad valorem property taxes shall be applicable to such assessments. The lien created attaches upon recordation of a certified copy of the confirmed report in the office of the County Recorder and shall continue until the charges and fees are fully paid.
