Whenever a bill for water rates, charges, services or benefits remains unpaid for
a period of thirty (30) days after the due date thereof, the corporation counsel shall
file with the recorder of deeds of the county, a statement of lien claims verified
by the affidavit of himself or by the affidavit of some other person having knowledge
of the facts. The statement as contained in the affidavit shall contain a sufficiently
correct description of the lot, lots or tracts of land to identify the same, the balance
due after allowing all credits, and a statement that the city claims a lien for this
amount, as well as for all charges for water supplied subsequent to the period covered
by the statement. No such lien shall be defeated to the proper amount thereof because
of an error or overcharge on the part of the city, nor shall any such lien be defeated
upon proof that such water was used or contracted for by a tenant of the premises
or occupant thereof other than the owner.
