   The county may collect any past due administrative citation fine, late payment charge(s), and its collections costs by use of all available legal means. The failure of any person to pay a fine assessed by an administrative citation or a late payment charge or collections costs related to an administrative citation, by the due date shall constitute a debt to the county. The county may seek payment of the debt by use of all available legal means, including but not limited to the following:
   (A)   The county may refer the debt to the Auditor and controller for collection.
   (B)   The county may file a civil action to recover the debt.
   (C)   The county may impose a code enforcement lien upon the real property upon which the violation is located. The lien shall continue until all fines, late payment charges and other costs owed are fully paid. Any lien imposed pursuant to this chapter shall attach upon the recordation of a notice of code enforcement lien in the Office of the County Recorder.
   (D)   Recovery through the Franchise Tax Board.
