After an administrative law officer has issued a final determination of liability or no liability, any property seized by the city in relation to the subject matter of the final determination of liability or no liability that is not forfeited by operation of law may be reclaimed by the lawful owner provided that all penalties and fees have been paid. The procedures for the reclamation shall be within the discretion of the department head of the city department or agency charged with maintaining custody of the property. After the expiration of time during which judicial review of the final determination of liability may be sought or 35 days after the final determination of no liability, unless stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction, any property not so reclaimed may be disposed of by the city department or agency charged with maintaining custody of the property as provided by law.
