Authorize property tax liens for unpaid code violation fines and cleanup costs

Property Tax LiensGovernanceHearing

In Plain English

Property owners who haven't paid fines for code violations or city cleanup costs face having those debts added to their property tax bills. The city can place liens on properties when owners ignore citations for issues like illegal dumping, building code violations, or overgrown lots. If approved, unpaid fines become part of annual property tax bills until paid in full.
