§ 54.065 CHARGING COST OF ABATEMENT/LIENS.
   (A)   Within 30 days after abatement of the nuisance by the City, the Public Works Director shall notify the property owner of the abatement cost, including administrative costs. The property owner may file a written protest objecting to the amount of the assessment with the City Clerk within 15 days. The City Clerk shall set the matter for public hearing by the City Council. The decision of the City Council shall be set forth by resolution and shall be final.
   (B)   If the amount due is not paid within ten days of the decision of the City Council or the expiration of the time in which to file an appeal under this section, the charges shall become a special assessment against the property and shall constitute a lien on the property for the amount of the assessment. A copy of the resolution shall be turned over to the County Auditor so that the auditor may enter the amounts of the assessment against the parcel as it appears on the current assessment roll, and the tax collector shall include the amount of the assessment on the bill for taxes levied against the parcel of land.
