Alabama Tax Certificate property rights

Bought a Tax Lien Certificate in Alabama a few months ago. The vacant lot is in a subdivision in Hueytown. Last week I got a Weed Notice. I have someone there looking at getting it mowed as I live in Texas. Today I spoke to the official who sent me the notice and he tells me there are parts or part of a boat on the property. There may also be a utility shed... I'm not sure if it's locked or not.

Do I have rights to remove the junk? Do I have rights to possession of what's in the shed or the shed itself?

@Robert Sims, not your boat, you didn't get it in the tax sale, not your responsibility to tag it, not your fault if the city tows it. It solves a problem for you. Yea!!!
