| The treasurer of the district has full and complete authority |
| and power to collect the rates, tolls, rents, impact fees, |
| entrance charges and other charges established under this Act, |
| and they must be committed to the treasurer. The treasurer may, |
| after demand for payment, sue in the name of the district in a |
| civil action for any rate, toll, rent, impact fee, entrance |
| charge or other charge remaining unpaid in any court of competent |
| jurisdiction. In addition to other methods established by law |
| for the collection of rates, tolls, rents, impact fees, entrance |
| charges and other charges, and without waiver of the right to sue |
| for the same, the lien created may be enforced in the following |
| manner. The treasurer, when a rate, toll, rent, impact fee, |
| entrance charge or other charge has been committed to the |
| treasurer for collection, may, after the expiration of 3 months |
| and within one year after the date when the same became due and |
| payable, give to the owner of the real estate served, or leave at |
| the owner's last and usual place of abode, or send by certified |
| mail, return receipt requested, to the owner's last known |
| address, a notice in writing signed by the treasurer or bearing |
| the treasurer's facsimile signature stating the amount of that |
| rate, toll, rent, impact fee or entrance charge or other charge. |
| The notice must describe the real estate upon which the lien is |
| claimed and state that a lien is claimed on the real estate to |
| secure the payment of the rate, toll, rent, impact fee, entrance |
| charge or other charge. The notice must demand the payment of |
| the rate, toll, rent, impact fee, entrance charge or other charge |
| within 30 days after service or mailing, with $1 for the |
| treasurer for mailing the notice together with the certified |
| mail, return receipt requested, fee. The notice must contain a |
| statement that the district is willing to arrange installment |
| payments of the outstanding debt. For the purpose of this |
| section, a mobile home is considered real estate. After the |
| expiration of a period of 30 days and within one year thereafter, |
| the treasurer shall record in the registry of deeds in the county |
| in which the property of the person is located a certificate |
| signed by the treasurer setting forth the amount of the rate, |
| toll, rent, impact fee, entrance charge or other charge |
| describing the real estate on which the lien is claimed. The |
| certificate must state that a lien is claimed on the real estate |
| to secure payment of the rate, toll, rent, impact fee, entrance |
