1. If any tax, fee or assessment
administered by the Department is not paid when due, the Department may, within
3 years after the date that the tax, fee or assessment was due, file for record
a certificate in the office of any county recorder which states:
(a) The amount of the tax, fee or assessment and
any interest or penalties due;
(b) The name and address of the person who is
liable for the amount due as they appear on the records of the Department; and
(c) That the Department has complied with all
procedures required by law for determining the amount due.
2. From the time of the filing of the
certificate, the amount due, including interest and penalties, constitutes a
lien upon all real and personal property in the county owned by the person or
acquired by the person afterwards and before the lien expires. The lien has the
effect and priority of a judgment lien and continues for 5 years after the time
of the filing of the certificate unless sooner released or otherwise
discharged.
3. Within 5 years after the date of the
filing of the certificate or within 5 years after the date of the last
extension of the lien pursuant to this subsection, as appropriate, the lien may
be extended by filing for record a new certificate in the office of the county
recorder of any county. From the time of filing, the lien is extended to all
real and personal property in the county owned by the person or acquired by the
person afterwards for 5 years, unless sooner released or otherwise discharged.
