To require that when municipalities “abate a nuisance” on a privately owned property (that is, clean up or remove at the municipality’s expense an unsightly condition that detracts from the appearance or quality of life of a neighborhood), they must bill the property owner within 30 days; and establish that if the bill is not paid in 30 days, then it become a lien against the property that can be enforced in the same way as unpaid taxes (through foreclosure and eventual seizure and sale if paid).
Referred to the Committee on Intergovernmental, Urban, and Regional Affairs
