A city may assess a penalty up to one percent of the market value of real property, including
any building located within the city that the city determines to be hazardous as defined in section
463.15, subdivision 3. The city shall send a written notice to the address to which the property tax
statement is sent at least 90 days before it may assess the penalty. If the owner of the property has
not paid the penalty or fixed the property within 90 days after receiving notice of the penalty,
the penalty is considered delinquent and is increased by 25 percent each 60 days the penalty is
not paid and the property remains hazardous. For the purposes of this section, a penalty that is
delinquent is considered a delinquent property tax and subject to chapters 279, 280, and 281, in
the same manner as delinquent property taxes.
