1. All sums paid by the Department
constitute a lien on the property and premises from which the nuisance has been
removed or abated pursuant to NRS 555.100 and 555.110 , and may be recovered by an
action against that property and premises.
2. A notice of lien must be filed and
recorded in the office of the county recorder of the county in which the property
and premises are situated within 30 days after the right to liens has accrued.
3. An action to foreclose a lien may be
commenced at any time within 1 year after the filing and recording of the
notice of lien, which action must be brought in the proper court by the
district attorney of the county in the name and for the benefit of the
Department.
4. If the property is sold, enough of the
proceeds must be paid to the Department to satisfy the lien and costs, and the
balance remaining, if any, must be paid to the owner of the property if the
owner is known, and if not, into the court for the owners use when
ascertained. All sales under the provisions of this section and NRS 555.100 and 555.110 must be made in the same manner and
upon the same notice as sales of real property under execution from a justice
court.
