8.15.040 Remedies for failure to make payments.
(a) Suit. Any collection fees due from any person or user shall be deemed to be a debt due to the town from that person or user. If collection fees are not paid when due, the town board may commence an action in a court of competent jurisdiction; and recover from such person or user the amount of charges or fees and damages, if any, sustained by the town as a result of such failure to pay, together with reasonable attorney’s fees and such costs and expenses as may be allowed by law.
(b) Lien on Property. As an alternative to the suit described in subsection (a) of this section, the town board directs that unpaid collection fees shall automatically be extended upon the current or next tax roll as a delinquent tax against the property in the manner provided for in Wis. Stats. Section 66.60(16). [Code 2002 § 38-4.]
