A. The City Manager, or his designee, is authorized to impose assessments and liens pursuant to the provisions of A.R.S. tit. 33, ch. 17, art. 1 (A.R.S. § 33-1901 et seq.).

B. Notice of an assessment or lien shall be provided to all owners and lienholders of the affected property. Such notice shall inform of the amount of the assessment or lien, the reason for the assessment or lien, and the procedure to appeal the assessment or lien. The effective date and manner of service shall be as described in Section 39-26

C. The City may record an assessment or lien with the County Recorder or the Department of Transportation. A recorded assessment shall run with the land. Failure to record an assessment or lien shall not affect the validity of the assessment or lien as to persons who have notice thereof. The City shall release the assessment or lien upon receipt of payment.

D. In the event that it is necessary to enforce an assessment or lien by sale, the sale shall be made from a judgment of foreclosure and order of sale. The City shall have the right to enforce an assessment or lien in the Superior Court, at any time after recording, but failure to enforce an assessment or lien shall not affect its validity. The recorded assessment or lien shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of all matters recited therein, and of the regularity of all proceedings prior to the recording. Prior assessments or liens for the purposes provided for in this ordinance shall not be a bar to subsequent assessments or liens, and any number of liens or assessments on the same property may be enforced in the same action.
