5:10A-76 Enforcement of payments due.
76. a. The payments due to the commission, whether as a lump sum or as balances due when a series of payments is to be made, shall be enforceable by the commission as a lien on the land and any improvements thereon. The lien shall be recorded by the county clerk or register of deeds and mortgages in the record book of the county office.
b. When the fee is paid in full on the development or portion thereof, the lien on the development or portion thereof, as appropriate, shall be removed. When a series of payments is to be made, failure to make any one payment within 30 days after receipt of a notice of late payment shall constitute a default and shall obligate the person owing the unpaid balance to pay that balance in its entirety.
c. All amounts assessed as a lien pursuant to this section shall be a lien upon the land against which they are assessed in the same manner that taxes are made a lien against land pursuant to Title 54 of the Revised Statutes, and the payment thereof shall be enforced within the same time, in the same manner, and by the same proceedings as the payment of taxes is otherwise enforced under Title 54 of the Revised Statutes.
