A. A financing statement in the form approved by the Secretary of State; and

B. A notarized statement that includes an accurate description of the property manufactured or repaired; the name of the owner, if known; and the amount due the claimant for the labor, materials or storage, with any amount paid on account.

2. Fees. The fee for filing a lien under this section is the same as under Title 11, section 9-1525.
