The costs associated with receivership, including but not limited to administrative costs and staff time including attorneys' fees and costs ("enforcement costs") shall be included within the costs recoverable by the County for such warning or notice, as permitted by law. County Counsel may seek enforcement costs of the County through any methods permitted by law, including but not limited to Health and Safety Code section 17980.7(c)(11). Enforcement costs may be invoiced to the property owner or other responsible party for payment and collection in accordance with the cost recovery procedures in the Code associated with the particular warning or notice.
