Full summary

The Department of Building and Safety filed a lien notice against the property located at 1134 South Elden Avenue to secure payment of code enforcement expenses. The underlying invoice (892069-0) totals $892,069 for work performed under Case 977800. Liens of this type are typically issued when property owners fail to comply with building code violations or fail to pay for City-ordered abatement, demolition, or remediation work. The Department of Building and Safety submitted the lien documentation to the City Council on March 3, 2026 (dated February 4, 2026). The matter was referred to Council for action. On April 17, 2026, the City Clerk scheduled the item for a Council vote on April 22, 2026. On April 22, 2026, the City Council adopted the lien by a unanimous vote of 12-0-3 (three members absent or abstaining). The action became final on May 5, 2026, with no reconsideration filed. The file is now closed. Once a municipal lien is recorded against a property, it typically attaches to the property title and may be enforced through collection or foreclosure proceedings if the debt remains unpaid.
