Demo Lien Law?

I was contacted by a State Farm agent about a property in our County that had a fire. He said there is something called a Demo Lien Law that says that the County Treasurer has to hold monies for the house demo, then pay the bills when the demolition is done. Has anyone heard of this, and if so what steps/policy have you followed to complete this process?
