(A) After disposing of the discarded vehicle and deducting the money, if any, received from any sale of the vehicle from the costs, the City Recorder shall give notice as specified in § 92.23 to the person in charge of the property from which the vehicle was removed:
(1) Of the unpaid costs of abatement;
(2) That the cost as indicated will be assessed to and become a lien against the real property unless paid within 30 days from the date of the notice; and
(3) That if the person in charge of the property objects to the cost of the abatement indicated, he or she may file a written notice of objection with the City Recorder within 20 days from the date of the notice.
(B) Within 40 days after the date of the notice, objections to the proposed assessment shall be heard and determined by the Council.
(C) If the costs of the abatement are not paid within 30 days from the date of the notice, an assessment of the costs shall be made by resolution of the City Council and shall be entered in the docket of city liens, and upon the entry being made shall constitute a lien upon the real property from which the nuisance was removed or abated.
(D) The lien shall be enforced in the same manner as liens for street improvements are enforced and shall bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum. The interest shall accrue from date of the entry of the lien in the lien docket.
(E) An error in the name of the person in charge of the property shall not void the assessment, nor will a failure to receive the notice of the proposed assessment render the assessment void. The assessment shall remain a valid lien against the property.
