Why does my account have a lien?

Per Pierce County Code 13.13.045, a lien will be filed on all accounts with balances or partial balances that are 60 days or more past due. A lien recording, release and processing charge will be added to the sewer account at the time the lien is placed on the property. Refer to PCC Title 13.13.045 and RCW 36.94.150 for references.
