(A) The city shall have the right to clean streets, storm sewers, ditches or streams, or employ other persons to do so. In such event the person responsible for the deposit of soil or other matter in or upon streets, storm sewers, ditches or streams shall be liable to the city for the reasonable expenses or costs thereof. There shall be included in the computation of such reasonable costs the city's actual costs for labor, equipment and supplies, and the administrative cost to the city, if applicable.
(B) Charges for removal and cleaning shall be a lien upon the premises. Whenever a bill for such charges remains unpaid for 30 days after it has been rendered, the city may file with the County Court Clerk a statement of a lien claim. This statement shall contain a legal description of the premises, the expenses and costs incurred, the date same was incurred, and a notice that the city claims a lien for that amount. Notice of such lien claim shall be mailed to the owner of the premises if his address is known; provided, however, that failure of the city to mail such notice, or the failure of the land owner to receive such notice, shall not affect the right to enforce the lien for such charges as provided herein.
