Full summary

The Department of Building and Safety has initiated a Council file to impose a lien against the property located at 745 West 109th Place. Liens of this type are typically filed when a property owner fails to pay costs incurred by the City for code enforcement work, abatement, repairs, or demolition performed on the property. The specific invoices referenced (896400-3 and 901101-6) relate to Case 987969, though the underlying details of the code violation or abatement work are not included in the file activity log. Liens serve as a mechanism to recover public expenditures and create a financial claim against the property that must be resolved before the property can be sold or refinanced. The Department submitted the lien request documents to Council on May 15, 2026, and the matter was formally referred to Council on July 17, 2026. As of the last activity date (July 17, 2026), the file remains open and has not been assigned to committee or scheduled for Council consideration. The file will expire on July 17, 2028, unless Council takes action to adopt, continue, or otherwise process the lien during that two-year window. No vote or formal council action has yet been recorded.
