Procedure for collection on default.
(1) If the owner neglects or refuses to pay installments under ORS 223.265 as
they become due and payable for a period of one year, then the governing body
of the local government may, by reason of the neglect or refusal to pay the
installments, and while the neglect and refusal to pay continues, pass a
resolution:
(a) Giving the
name of the owner then in default in the payment of the sums due;
(b) Stating the
sums due, either principal or interest and any unpaid late payment penalties or
charges;
(c) Containing a
description of the property upon which the sums are owing; and
(d) Declaring the
whole sum, both principal and interest, due and payable at once.
(2) The governing
body may then proceed at once to collect all unpaid installments and to enforce
collection thereof, with all unpaid late payment penalties and charges added
thereto, in the same manner in which delinquent property taxes are collected under
applicable law or, in the case of a city, in the same manner as street and
sewer assessments are collected pursuant to the terms of the city charter. [Amended
by 1991 c.902 §19; 2003 c.802 §13]
