Cost sharing of the conversion costs shall be in accordance with subsection 19-4.14.
Pursuant to Section 38793 of the Government Code of the State of California, if any property owner, after due notice, refuses to comply within a reasonable time to effect the removal of his existing overhead utility lines and prepare his property to accept underground utility lines, the City may cause such work to be done and assess the costs thereof against the property, and such assessment shall become a lien against the property. The assessment may be collected at the same time and in the same manner as ordinary municipal ad valorem taxes are collected, and shall be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure and sale in case of delinquency as provided for such taxes. All laws applicable to the levy, collection and enforcement of municipal ad valorem taxes shall be applicable to such assessment.
