The amount of any bill which is delinquent shall constitute a lien upon the real estate for which such services were rendered, and the Village Clerk is authorized and directed each month to file sworn statements showing such delinquencies in the office of the Recorder of Deeds of the county. The filing of such statement shall be deemed notice of lien for payment of such charges for such services. To the extent permitted by law, any property subject to such a lien may be sold for non-payment to pay the charges, after deducting costs. The Village Board may authorize and direct the Village Attorney to institute foreclosure proceedings in the name of the village.
