A. Assessments: Upon failure of any owner or tenant to comply with the provisions of this chapter, the City shall have the right, but is not required, to remove such snow and ice from said public sidewalks and assess the costs thereof against the premises abutting the sidewalk. Such assessment is to be certified to the County Assessor or any other proper County official having charge of making of the assessment roll and such charge shall be placed on the assessment roll and collected in the same manner as other City taxes. (1-3-1978)
B. Nonpayment Of Property Assessments: Anytime the City is required, either through their employees, or to a contractor to resolve, remedy, or otherwise abate a condition in which the property owner is in violation of the City, the owner is billed for such repair, and the owner does not pay the bill within sixty (60) calendar days of the notice, failure to pay will be considered nonpayment. Nonpayment shall be a considered lien against the property, and is enforceable in the same manner as nonpayment of Property Taxes is enforced.
In the event the property owner who is billed objects or challenges to the amount of the bill, or any other issues related to the bill, they may request to be placed upon the agenda at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting at any time before the expiration of the sixty (60) day period.
