15-16-403 . Lien on real property and improvements. Every tax due upon real property is a lien against the property assessed, and every tax due upon improvements upon real estate assessed to other than the owner of the real estate is a lien upon the land and improvements, which several liens attach as of January 1 in each year. A person who issues a check, draft, converted check, electronic funds transfer, or order for the payment of real property taxes is subject to the liability provided in 27-1-717 if the instrument is dishonored or if the issuer stops payment with the intent to fraudulently defeat a possessory lien or defraud the payee.
