Release of Lien Request (RLN) for Cityview Citations Only

Do you have a property in which you will like to request a release of lien (RLN)? Have you complied all violations and paid all outstanding fees?  

Liens are placed on violating properties that have been determined to be guilty by the Code Enforcement Board and have not come into compliance by the ordered due date.  Liens are removed once the property has come into compliance, all outstanding fines have been paid, and you have made this request and received approval. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: A lien cannot be released if the violation(s) is open and/or there are unpaid fees.
