Place property liens for unpaid garbage collection fees
In Plain English
The city can place liens on properties when residents don't pay their garbage collection bills. This legal tool helps the city collect overdue sanitary service fees and administrative costs.

Why This Vote Matters
The city council authorized placing liens on properties when residents don't pay their garbage collection bills, with Councilmember Marquez abstaining and the rest voting yes. This gives the city a legal tool to collect overdue sanitary service fees by attaching the debt to the property itself. When a property with unpaid garbage bills is sold, those debts must be paid off before the sale can proceed. This is a routine administrative measure that cities commonly use to ensure collection of municipal service fees.
