The Town Marshall keep an accurate account of the expenses incurred by him in cutting any weeds from any property. Then, the Marshal shall forthwith make a sworn statement of these expenses and turn them over to the treasurer. The treasurer shall mail to the offending owner, agent, lessee, or occupant, where known, a statement of expenses, requiring therein that the expenses be paid within thirty days of mailing the statement.

In the event payment is not so made, the treasurer shall present the claim to the Town Council and, if the Council finds the claim to be correct, it shall order the expenses paid from the current expense fund and the amount so paid to be a tax on the property upon which the expenses were incurred. Further, upon such a finding, the Council shall cause the amount to be certified to the County Treasurer under the Town’s seal by the mayor and clerk as other delinquent Town assessments are certified. (Ord. 75-N, §4, 1974)
