§ 90.09 ABATEMENT BY TOWN; RECOVERY OF COSTS.
   (A)   Whenever the Town Manager has determined that a nuisance exists and given proper notice thereof, the property owner, occupant or person in possession of the premises on which the nuisance is located may contract with the town to remove the conditions at a fee and upon the terms and conditions as the Town Manager may approve, except that as a condition of all the agreements the landowner, occupant or person in charge of the premises shall release the town from any liability arising from or resulting from the removal of those conditions.
   (B)   Upon the failure of the property owner, occupant or person in possession of the premises to take the corrective action ordered by the Town Manager within the time specified, the Town Manager may remove, abate or remedy the condition that is dangerous or prejudicial to the public health or public safety and the expense of the action shall be paid by the person in default pursuant to G.S. § 160A-193. If not paid, the expenses shall become a lien upon the land or premises where the trouble arose and may be collected as unpaid taxes.
