Part 3. Recordation Of Notice Of Pendency Of Sale Or Foreclosure of California Streets And Highways Code >> Division 4.5. >> Part 3.

Where there is a delinquency in the payment of special taxes levied pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 53311) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code or principal and interest due upon a special assessment or bond and a sale or foreclosure is commenced, notice of the pendency of the sale or foreclosure shall be filed as provided in this part.

Not later than 10 days after (1) making demand upon or application to the treasurer or other officer of the city to sell property for the delinquency or (2) commencing an action or proceeding in any court to foreclose the lien of the special assessment or bond, the lienholder shall record with the county recorder a notice of pendency of the sale or foreclosure.

The notice of pendency shall contain the name of the lienholder, describe the lien, state that a sale or foreclosure, as the case may be, has been commenced, refer to and identify the sale or foreclosure, and describe the property affected thereby.

Such notice of pendency shall be in addition to any notice required to be given by the principal act or bond act pursuant to which such sale or foreclosure is being taken.

The lienholder is entitled to recover the cost of recordation of any notice of pendency in any sale or foreclosure resulting from the delinquency and provision therefor shall be made in any notice, order, or judgment authorizing or providing for the sale or foreclosure.

This part does not apply in any case where payments of special taxes or principal and interest due upon a special assessment or bond are enforced for delinquency in the same manner and at the same times as general taxes of the city on real property.
