(B) The city shall pay the cost and expense of such abatement from any appropriation made for that purpose.
(C) A lien shall be recorded with the Bernalillo County Clerk's Office for all the costs incurred by the city as a result of abating the property.

A structure declared unfit for occupancy and ordered vacated or to remain vacant under the provisions of this section shall not be leased, rented or occupied, until it has been inspected and deemed fit for occupancy by the UHC. The city shall re-inspect, for the purpose of re-occupancy, within five business days of the receipt of a written request by the owner, their agent or responsible party.
