(B) The amount of the fair and reasonable value for such temporary use and occupancy established by the condemnor shall be paid to the condemnor at reasonable intervals; any amount due and payable may be retained by the condemnor from any unpaid damage or consideration to be paid by it to such condemnee, tenant or other person for the property or interest therein acquired from him. Either party may bring an action and make application to a court of competent jurisdiction to establish the fair and reasonable amount of money due for such holding, use or occupancy of the property, in the event the value established by the condemnor is unacceptable. The condemnor may enforce any judgment ensuing from such actions according to the applicable provisions of law.

(C) Where a condemnee, tenant or other person holding, using or occupying property acquired pursuant to this chapter is entitled to an award for the acquisition of the property by the condemnor, any unpaid portion of the sum fixed for use and occupancy either by agreement, expressed or implied, or by court action to establish the same, shall be a lien against such award, or payment by agreement, subject only to liens of record at the time of the vesting of title in the condemnor and liens under section four hundred seventy-five of the judiciary law.
