certificate in the registry of deeds, the mortgage is deemed
foreclosed and the right of redemption expired.__The filing of the
certificate in the registry of deeds is sufficient notice of the
existence of the mortgage.__If the rate, toll, rent or other
charge, with interest and costs, is paid within the period of
redemption, the treasurer of the district shall discharge the
mortgage in the same manner as provided for discharge of real
estate mortgages.

 
The cost to be paid by the owner of the real estate served is
the sum of the fees for receiving, recording and indexing the
lien, or its discharge, as established by the Maine Revised
Statutes, Title 33, section 751, plus $13 and all certified mail,
return receipt requested, fees.

 
The district shall pay the treasurer $1 for filing the lien
certificate and the amount paid for certified mail, return
receipt requested, fees.__The fees for recording the lien
certificate must be paid by the district to the register of
deeds.

 
A discharge of the certificate given after the right of
redemption has expired and has been recorded in the registry of
deeds for more than one year terminates all title of the district
derived from that certificate or any other recorded certificate
for which the right or redemption expired 10 years or more before
the foreclosure date of this discharge lien, unless the district
has conveyed any interest based upon the title acquired from any
of the affected liens.

 
SUMMARY

 
This bill amends the Charter of the Limestone Water and Sewer
District by updating the procedures for filing a lien for
nonpayment of sewer charges.
