If the Chief Building Inspector, with regard to a building or other structure damaged by fire, explosion or windstorm determines that it is necessary to act under K.S.A. 12-1756, any proceeds received by the City Treasurer under the authority of § 8-1005(a) relating to that building or other structure shall be used to reimburse the city for any expenses incurred by the city in proceeding under K.S.A. 12-1756. Upon reimbursement from the insurance proceeds, the Chief Building Inspector shall immediately effect the release of the lien resulting therefrom. Should the expenses incurred by the city exceed the insurance proceed paid over to the City Treasurer, under § 8-1005(a) the Chief Building Inspector shall publish a new lien as authorized by K.S.A. 12-1756, in an amount equal to such excess expenses incurred.
