To avoid a lien being placed on your property, it is important to stay current on paying your sewer bill.

Landlords
It is important to note that the sewer bill stays in your name, regardless of who is residing at the property. To ensure payment of the sewer bill, we highly advise the landlord to pay the bill or collect the money directly from the tenant and pay the bill.
If the tenant fails to pay the bill, a lien will be placed on the property in the legal owner's name.
