After reviewing the request for forgiveness of Liens, staff made the determination that the request does not fall within any of the criteria that would allow the County Administrator to deny relief, in accordance with the Board’s Policy, “Guidelines for Relief from Environmental (Code) Enforcement Special Magistrate Liens” Policy, Section III, H2.
