(a) Any person owning a legal or equitable interest in real property proposed to be subject to a lien pursuant to Section 1.12.180 may file a written protest with the city clerk and/or may protest orally at the city council hearing.
(b) Each written protest or objection must contain a description of the property in which the protesting party has a legal or equitable interest and the grounds of such protest or objection. The grounds for protest or objection, and any evidence or testimony submitted in support or in opposition to the imposition of a lien, shall be confined to whether the amount of any administrative penalty and/or administrative cost imposed was satisfied in full within the time allowed by law and/or was successfully challenged by a timely writ of mandate.
(c) The city council, after the hearing, shall adopt a resolution confirming, discharging, or modifying the amount of the lien based upon evidence produced at the hearing.
