Ordinances passed by a board of county commissioners for the removal of rubbish pursuant to this sub-subparagraph (A) shall include provisions for applying for and exercising an administrative entry and seizure warrant issued by a county or district court having jurisdiction over the property from which rubbish shall be removed. Any assessment pursuant to this sub-subparagraph (A) shall be a lien against such lot or tract of land until paid and shall have priority over all other liens except general taxes and prior special assessments. In case such assessment is not paid within a reasonable time specified by ordinance, it may be certified by the clerk to the county treasurer, who shall collect the assessment, together with a ten percent penalty for the cost of collection, in the same manner as other taxes are collected. The laws of this state for assessment and collection of general taxes, including the laws for the sale and redemption of property for taxes, shall apply to the collection of assessments pursuant to this sub-subparagraph (A).

Within ten days following the date of issuance of an administrative entry and seizure warrant pursuant to the provisions of this sub-subparagraph (B), such warrant shall be executed in accordance with directions by the issuing court, a copy of such issued warrant shall be provided or mailed to the property owner, and proof of the execution of such warrant, including a written inventory of any property impounded by the executing authority, shall be submitted to the court by the executing authority.

Ordinances passed by a board of county commissioners for the removal of weeds and brush pursuant to this sub-subparagraph (A) shall include provisions for applying for and exercising an administrative entry and seizure warrant issued by a county or district court having jurisdiction over the property from which weeds and brush shall be removed.

A county shall not compel the removal of weeds and brush pursuant to this sub-subparagraph (A) upon any lot or tract of land within the county during such time that a mortgage or deed of trust secured by the lot or tract of land is being foreclosed upon.

(B) In case such assessment is not paid within a reasonable time specified by ordinance, it may be certified by the clerk to the county treasurer, who shall collect the assessment, together with a ten percent penalty for the cost of collection, in the same manner as other taxes are collected.

(C) A county court or district court having jurisdiction over property from which weeds and brush shall be removed pursuant to the ordinances authorized by sub-subparagraph (A) of this subparagraph (I.5) shall issue an administrative entry and seizure warrant for the removal of such weeds and brush. Such warrant shall be issued upon presentation by a county of ordinance provisions which meet the requirements of sub-subparagraph (A) of this subparagraph (I.5) and a sworn or affirmed affidavit stating the factual basis for such warrant, evidence that the property owner has received notice of the violation and has failed to remove the weeds and brush within a reasonable prescribed period of time, a general description of the location of the property which is the subject of the warrant, and the proposed disposal of such weeds and brush. Within ten days following the date of issuance of an administrative entry and seizure warrant pursuant to the provisions of this sub-subparagraph (C), such warrant shall be executed in accordance with directions by the issuing court, a copy of such issued warrant shall be provided or mailed to the property owner, and proof of the execution of such warrant shall be submitted to the court by the executing authority.

No person shall be permitted to alter any previously submitted proposal in any respect.

(III) The reviewing auditor shall review each of the proposals submitted, but the review shall be limited to determining:

(A) Whether the selection of the jurisdiction's proposal was made in a manner contrary to the procedure set forth in subsection (7.5) of this section or in the request for proposals;

(B) Whether the selection of the jurisdiction's proposal was clearly erroneous in light of the criteria set forth in the request for proposals; and

(C) Whether the certification of an independent auditor provided pursuant to subparagraph (II) of paragraph (c) of subsection (7.5) of this section is materially inaccurate.

(IV) Should the reviewing auditor find that the governing body's selection of a proposal was improper, the determination of the governing body shall be void, and the governing body shall reconsider as expeditiously as is practicable all proposals timely submitted and determine which proposals it will accept, giving due regard to the determination of the reviewing auditor. No person shall be entitled to alter any previously submitted proposal in any respect.
