(A) Any and all civil penalties or fees assessed under this subchapter shall be billed to the owner or other responsible party. Failure or refusal to pay any and all such penalties permits the village to pursue any and all available legal remedies for the enforcement and collection of such penalties, including, but not limited to, suits or actions being maintained in any court of competent jurisdiction, abatement of nuisances maintained in violation of this subchapter, institution of injunction, mandamus or other appropriate action or proceedings to enforce the penalty provisions of this subchapter and § 91.99(B). This subchapter in no way limits the penalties, actions or abatement procedures which may be taken by the village for a violation of any other ordinance of the village or statute of the state.
(B) Unpaid vacant property registration fees and unpaid fines for any violation of this subchapter shall become a lien on the applicable property upon the recording of a notice of such lien in the office of the County Register of Deeds. The lien created under this division (B) shall be subordinate to all liens on the applicable property recorded prior to the time the notice of such lien under this division (B) is recorded.
