Modifies provisions relating to enforcement of liens for delinquent payment for sewer service
SB 1520 modifies how cities, towns, or villages enforce liens for unpaid sewer service charges. It specifies that unpaid user fees, connection charges, or other sewer-related costs become delinquent with interest and automatically create a lien on the property within the municipality's limits. The bill requires municipal governing boards to file a notice of delinquency with the county recorder of deeds to establish the lien, and to file a notice of full payment when the debt is settled. This change directly affects property owners who fall behind on sewer payments and municipal governments managing sewer billing and enforcement. The lien can be enforced through legal action or foreclosure.
