A. If the person or persons served with a notice pursuant to section 5-1-3 of this chapter do not cut or otherwise remove the weeds, grass or plants as provided in said section 5-1-3 within five (5) days from the date of the notice, then the Village Director of Public Works or such persons as may be designated by the Director of Public Works may proceed to cut or otherwise remove the weeds, grass or plants so that the weeds, grass and plants no longer constitute a nuisance under the provisions of this chapter.
B. 1. The Director of the Health and Licensing Department, or another Village official designated by the Village President, shall keep a record of the costs incurred by the Village in cutting or otherwise removing the weeds, grass or plants, and such costs shall be charged to the person to whom was sent the tax bill for general taxes for the last preceding year on the property where the weeds, grass or plants were cut or otherwise removed, and while unpaid, such cutting or removal costs shall constitute a lien against the property where the weeds, grass or plants were otherwise removed.
2. The Director of the Health and Licensing Department or such other person as may be designated by the Village President shall cause notice of the costs and lien to be personally served or served by certified mail on the person to whom was sent the tax bill for general taxes for the last preceding year for property where the weeds, grass or plants were cut or otherwise removed.
3. The Director of the Health and Licensing Department, or such other person as may be designated by the Village President, shall cause notice of the lien to be filed in the Office of the Recorder of Cook County within sixty (60) days after the date the weeds, grass or plants were cut or otherwise removed.
