Notice of tax lien applicability of certain violations issued by the department of buildings.

This bill would require notices of violation issued by the Department of Buildings (“DOB”) that may be enforced as a lien to include a warning that an unpaid judgment may become a lien against the property after judgment by the Environmental Control Board (“ECB”). Within 3 days of ECB judgment, DOB would be required to send a notice to any property owner whose property is or will be the subject of a tax lien describing available payment plans, deadlines, and resources to avoid or discharge a lien and to enter into compliance with DOB requirements. The bill would also require DOB and DOF to publish annual data on such lien conversions and would further require both departments to provide outreach and educational support to one- and two-family property owners.
