Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

My property is a condo apt in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, some time ago the condo board placed a lien against my property for unpaid maintenance fees and assessments, I paid the full amount of the lien (including legal expenses) and brought my account up to date, however just recently I fell behind on my fees, and found myself threatened with the SAME lien document, I had assumed that this had been removed when all the monies due had been paid.

My questions are:

1. Can this same lien be held over me?

2. If so is it indefinite or there a time limit?

3. Is there anything I can do to force its removal?
