§ 9.04.290. Conditions to service—Sewer charges as a lien
Latest version.
Each charge levied by or pursuant to this chapter or the city sewer rate ordinance
shall constitute a lien against the lot or parcel of land that received the benefit
of the service or facility for which the charge is imposed if such charges remain
delinquent for a period of 120 days; provided, however, that if the owner has given
the city notice that is desires the city to bill the occupants or persons in possession,
charge, or control of the premises for sewer service as provided in this chapter,
then the amount billed to the occupants or persons in possession, charge, or control
of the premises which are delinquent shall not be included within the amount of any
lien imposed upon the property.
Said lien shall be imposed and shall have the same force and effect of priority as
provided for in section 54373.11 of the California Health and Safety Code, provided
that in addition to the procedures provided for therein, the city council, prior to
the recordation of notice of lien, shall hold a public hearing for the purpose of
imposing said lien and shall give ten days' written notice of its intention to impose
the same to each owner of the property against which charges are delinquent.
The city council, by ordinance adopted by a four-fifths vote may elect to have service
charges which remain delinquent on June 30 of each year collected at the same time
and in the same manner as general municipal taxes, in accordance with section 5470
et seq. of the California Health and Safety Code.
