Full summary
The Department of Building and Safety has submitted a document dated March 23, 2026, seeking Council approval to place a lien on the property located at 3521 East 4th Street in Long Beach. The lien would secure recovery of unpaid code enforcement costs and related fees associated with Case 995245. Invoice 903645-9 documents the amount owed. The file was referred to Council on May 7, 2026, and has not yet been assigned to a committee or acted upon as of that date. This type of lien action is a standard enforcement tool used by the city when property owners fail to pay citations, fines, or costs for code violations, unsafe building conditions, or required remediation work. The lien attaches to the property record and typically prevents sale or refinancing until the debt is satisfied. The file remains open and will expire on May 7, 2028, if no Council action is taken during that two-year window.
