The City may sell or otherwise dispose of salvaged materials resulting from any demolition; provided, however, that the proceeds of any monies received from the sale of salvaged materials shall be used or applied against the cost of the demolition. Upon the demolition or repair of the Building, the Official shall report to the Council the amount of the proposed Assessment, and shall include an administrative fee in the amount of $200.00 to offset the costs of administration. The City Clerk shall, by first class mail, give notice of the meeting at which the fixing of the costs is to be considered to the Owner, all mortgagees of record and any other Person known to the clerk to have an interest in the property. Any Person having an interest in the property may be heard at the meeting as to any objection to the fixing of such costs or the amounts thereof. The Council shall adopt a resolution fixing the amount that was reasonably incurred in the demolition or repair and assessing the same against the property including the $200 administrative fee. The cost fixed by resolution shall constitute a Final Assessment against the lot or lots, parcel or parcels of land upon which the Building was/is located. The Final Assessment as made and confirmed shall constitute a lien on the property for the amount of the Final Assessment. The lien shall be superior to all other liens on the property except liens for taxes, and except for mortgages recorded prior to the creation of the lien for the Final Assessment, and shall continue in force until paid. A certified copy of the resolution fixing the Final Assessment shall also be recorded in the office of the Judge of Probate of Mobile County. The Final Assessment shall be assessed against any lot or lots, parcel or parcels of land purchased by the State of Alabama at any sale for the nonpayment of taxes, and where such Final Assessment is made against the lot or lots, parcel or parcels of land, a subsequent redemption thereof by any Person authorized to redeem or sale thereof by the state, shall not operate or discharge, or 5 Page 6 in any manner affect the lien of the City for the Assessment, but any redemptioner or purchaser at any sale by the State of any lot or lots, parcel or parcels of land upon which Final Assessment has been levied, whether prior to or subsequent to a sale of the State for the nonpayment of taxes, shall take the same subject to the Assessment. SECTION SIX: PAYMENT OF ASSESSMENT (a) (d) Any Final Assessment shall be paid in cash within thirty (30) days after the Final Assessment. If the Final Assessment is greater than ten thousand dollars ($10,000), the Owner may, within thirty (30) days of the Final Assessment, give written notice to the Public Improvement Officer that the Owner elects to pay the Final Assessment in ten (10) equal annual installments or in 36, 60, 120 monthly installments. The first installment shall be payable within thirty (30) days after the Final Assessment is determined, and all installments thereof shall be payable to the Public Improvement Officer. Installment payments shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum. Interest shall begin to accrue upon the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date of the Final Assessment and the interest shall be due and payable at the time and place the Final Assessment is due and payable. Any Owner electing installment payments may pay the outstanding balance, together with all accrued interest thereon, at any time during the installment payment schedule. Upon full payment of the Final Assessment and accrued interest thereon, the City shall record a satisfaction of the lien in the office of the Judge of Probate of Mobile County. SECTION SEVEN: FAILURE TO PAY ASSESSMENT (a) If the property Owner fails to pay the Final Assessment within thirty (30) days, or having elected to make installment payments, fails to make any installment payment when due, the entire balance shall immediately become due and payable, and the City may proceed to sell the property to the highest bidder for cash, but in no event less than the amount of the lien plus interest through the date of default. Page 7 (d) (e) (£) (g) Prior to the sale, notice shall be given by publication once a week for three (3) consecutive weeks in a newspaper published in the City or of general circulation therein, setting forth the date and time of the sale and the purpose for which the same is made, together with a description of the property to be sold. If the Official shall fail to advertise and sell any property on which the payments are past due, any taxpayer of the City shall have the right to apply for a writ of mandamus requiring the Official to take such action to any court of competent jurisdiction, and the court shall, on proof, issue and enforce the writ. Any Owner, notwithstanding his or her default, may pay the Final Assessment lien with interest and all costs if tendered before a sale of the property. The cost of any notice and sale resulting from a default shall constitute a charge against the property to be sold and shall be retained out of the proceeds of the sale. The Official making the sale shall execute a deed to the purchaser, conveying all the right, title, and interest that the Owner had or held on the date of the Final Assessment or on the date of sale. Any surplus arising from the sale shall be paid to the City Finance Director to be kept as a separate fund by the Finance Director for the Owner upon the responsibility of his or her official bond. The City may, by its agents, purchase real estate sold as provided under this chapter and, in the event of the purchase, the deed for the same shall be made to the City. No mistake in the notice of sale in the description of the property or in the name of the Owner shall vitiate the Final Assessment or the lien and if for any reason the sale is ineffectual to pass title, it shall operate as an assignment of the lien and, upon the request of the purchaser, supplementary proceedings of the same general character as required in this act may be had to correct the errors in the proceedings for his or her benefit or the lien so assigned to him or her may be enforced by civil action. SECTION EIGHT: RIGHT OF REDEMPTION (a) Any real property heretofore or hereafter sold for the O satisfaction of an assessment lien imposed thereon by the Council may be redeemed by the former owner, or his or her 7 Page 8 assigns, or other Persons authorized to redeem property sold for taxes by the state, within two (2) years from the date of the sale by depositing with the City Finance Director: (1) (2) (3) (4) (b) The the amount of money for which the lands were sold, with interest thereon at the rate of 12 percent per annum from the date of the sale through the date of the payment; the amount of all insurance premiums paid plus interest computed from the date the premiums were paid at the rate of 12 percent per annum through the date of payment; the value of all Permanent Improvements as determined in accordance with this section. interest on the value of all Permanent Improvements computed from the date the improvements were made at the rate of 12 percent per annum through the date of the payment. value of the Permanent Improvements shall be determined as follows: (1) (2) (3) (4) The proposed redemptioner shall make written demand upon the purchaser of a statement of the value of all Permanent Improvements made on the property since the Assessment sale. The purchaser shall within 10 days from the receipt of the demand, furnish the proposed redemptioner with the amount claimed as the value of the Permanent Improvements. The proposed redemptioner shall within ten (10) days either accept the value so stated by the purchaser, or disagreeing therewith, appoint a referee to ascertain the value of the Permanent Improvements. The proposed redemptioner shall in writing (i) notify the purchaser of his or her disagreement as to the value; and (ii) inform the purchaser of the name of the referee appointed by him or her. Within 10 days after the receipt of the notice, the purchaser shall appoint a referee to ascertain the value of the Permanent Improvements and advise the proposed redemptioner of the name of the appointee. Page 9 O (c @) The two referees shall, within 10 days after the purchaser has appointed his or her referee, meet and confer upon the award to be made by them. (5) If they cannot agree, the referees shall at once appoint an umpire, and the award by a majority of the body shall be made within 10 days after the appointment of the umpire and shall be final between the parties. If the proposed redemptioner fails or refuses to nominate a referee as provided in subsection (b) of this section, he or she shall pay the value put upon the improvements by the purchaser. If the purchaser refuses or fails to appoint a referee, as provided in subsection (b) of this section, the purchaser shall forfeit his or her claim to compensation for the improvements. The failure of the referees or either of them to act or to appoint an umpire shall not operate to impair or forfeit the right of either the proposed redemptioner or the purchaser in the premises. In the event of failure without fault of the parties to affect an award, the appropriate court shall proceed to ascertain the true value of the Permanent Improvements and enforce the redemption accordingly. ~~ The fixed two-year period of redemption for any property heretofore or hereafter sold for the satisfaction of any Assessment lien may be extended to a date 60 days after the date of the certificate of warning to redeem, but in no event for a longer period than six years from the date of such sale.
