(a)All costs incurred by the district in abating a public nuisance pursuant to this article are a lien upon the property.
(b)Notice of the lien shall include the name of the record owner, the property on which the nuisance was abated, and the amount of the lien. The notice of lien shall be recorded by the district in the Office of the Alameda County Recorder within one year after the date on which the district initially incurs costs to abate the public nuisance or within 90 days after the completion of the abatement of the public nuisance, whichever occurs first. Upon recordation of the notice of lien, the lien shall have the same force, effect, and priority as a judgment lien, except that it will attach only to the property described in the notice, and shall continue until released or otherwise discharged.
