KRS 227.360

If any owner fails to comply with a summary order or an order of the state fire marshal, his authorized designee or a fire inspector, or with an order as modified on appeal, the state fire marshal may cause the property to be repaired, or removed if repair is not feasible, or all fire hazard conditions remedied, at the expense of the owner. Such expense may be enforced against any property of such owner, and the state fire marshal and those employed by him to do the work or who furnish materials or equipment therefor, shall have a lien for such expense on the real estate property involved.
