The new bylaw states that if fees imposed or costs incurred by the Village are not paid when due, the Village may collect such unpaid fees fr om the owner of the land in the same manner as ordinary property taxes. That means homeowners are responsible to pay for the clean-up if a drug bust occurs in the home. If the fees remain unpaid on Dec. 31, they will be deemed to be taxes in arrears. - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
