§ 34-266. Responsibility for cost of repair or removal; lien right.
Latest version.
When the village has affected the repair or removal of a sign or has paid for the
repair or removal thereof, the actual cost thereof, plus accrued interest at the rate
of ten percent per annum, shall be charged to the owner of the property on the next
regular tax bill forwarded to the owner. The charge shall be due and payable to the
village within 30 days following written notice, given to the property owner, of the
amount due. If the amount shall not be paid by the property owner, then such amount
due to the village shall become a lien upon the property of the owner, and the village
manager may cause the filing of such lien in the public records of this county or
any other county in which the property owner owns real property.
