If, at the end of the period fixed by the city for the abatement or removal of a public nuisance, the nuisance has not been abated or removed by the owner or other interested party and no appeal has been filed pursuant to § 130.39(A) of this chapter, the city may cause the same to be abated or removed by the city or in any other manner deemed appropriate, including the demolition of buildings as provided for in M.S. § 463.16, as it may be amended from time to time, and the costs and expenses of such abatement and departmental costs and expenses, including overheads and allowances for time of city employees, expenses of equipment, if used, and sums of money necessarily paid out if done by other than city departments, shall be computed and reported to the City Council. Thereupon, the City Council shall adopt an assessment roll levying a special assessment upon such lands and premises, which shall be transmitted to the County Auditor and included with the next tax levy upon such lands and premises and collected in the manner provided by law for the levy and collection of other special assessments.
