The enforcement official may collect all civil penalties and related administrative costs by the use of all appropriate legal means, including referral to the city attorney and the recordation of a code enforcement lien pursuant to the procedures set forth in Chapter 1.60 of this title. If unable to collect the obligation, the enforcement official may refer the obligation to the city attorney to file a court action to recover these penalties and costs.
(Ord. 586 § 5 (part), 1998)
Civil penalties collected pursuant to this chapter shall be deposited in the code enforcement fund established pursuant to Section 1.32.110 of this title. Civil penalties deposited in this fund shall be appropriated and allocated in a manner determined by the city manager.
(Ord. 586 § 5 (part), 1998)
Once payment in full is received for the outstanding civil penalties and costs or the amount is deemed satisfied pursuant to a subsequent administrative or judicial order, the enforcement official shall either record a notice of satisfaction or provide the property owner or financial institution with a notice of satisfaction so they can record this notice with the county recorder's office. The notice of satisfaction shall include the same information as provided for in the original code enforcement lien as described in Chapter 1.60 of this title.
