§ 50.48 ENFORCEMENT.
   Charges for sewerage service shall constitute a lien on the property or premises served, and liens for delinquent charges may be recorded against the property with the office of the county’s Register of Deeds. If payment is not made within six months of the beginning of the delinquency, the same shall be certified to Council at the regular November meeting of the Council, and the amounts so certified and approved by Council shall be spread upon the December tax roll for collection. This procedure shall not apply if a lease has been legally executed, containing a provision that the lessor shall not be liable for payment of water or sewage bills accruing subsequent to the filing of the written notice and a copy of the signed lease provided by this chapter. A written notice with respect to the execution of a lease containing this provision shall be filed with the Board, Commission, or other official in charge of the water works system or the sewerage system, or both, and 20-day notice shall be given by the lessor of any cancellation of, change in, or termination of the lease. The written notice shall contain a notation of the expiration date of the lease.
