The notice shall also state that the failure of the licensee to remove all refuse, litter, debris, garbage and the like within the 24-hour period as required by such notice shall be deemed to form a contract between the village and the licensee for payment of the costs of the removal of the refuse, litter, debris, garbage and the like. Service of notice shall be made upon the licensee and the owner of the real property for which the license was issued.

The notice of lien shall be filed within 90 days after the cost and expense of the removal has been incurred. It shall consist of a sworn statement setting out a description of the real estate sufficient for identification thereof, the amount of money representing the cost and expense incurred or payable for the removal and the date to dates when such costs and expenses were incurred by the village. The village lien shall not be valid as to a purchaser whose rights in and to such real estate have arisen subsequent to removal of the refuse, litter, debris, garbage and the like prior to the filing of such notice, and the village’s lien shall not be valid as to any mortgagee, judgment creditor or other lienor whose rights in and to such real estate arise prior to the filing of such notice. Upon payment of the costs and expenses after notice of the lien has been filed, the village shall release the lien and the release may be filed or recorded as in the case of filing a notice of lien. Costs and expenses under this section shall include, but are not limited to, the actual costs and expenses for the time of village employees, use of equipment and materials concerning the action to removal and transportation to and from the property, title searches or certifications, preparation of lien documents, foreclosure and other related reasonable attorney expenses. If the costs and expenses for removal, as aforedescribed, shall remain unpaid for a period of 30 days after the lien is filed, the village may institute proceedings to foreclose the lien and the real estate may be sold under the order of the court. If the payment of the village’s costs of removal or abatement of the nuisance is not paid to the village within 30 days of the billing of such costs the attorney for the village is empowered and directed to commence proceedings in the circuit court seeking a personal judgment from the licensee and/or owner of the premises. Such action shall be based upon the implied consent for persons to form a contract for the removal or abatement of the nuisance.
