RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution affirming the Fiscal Year 2009-2010 Weed Abatement Program Report and
authorize the transmittal of uncollected weed abatement charges and postings to the Office of
Auditor-Controller, County of Orange.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency operates ayear-round program to maintain private properties free of
weeds and rubbish. City sanitation inspectors post properties notifying owners of unsightly or
unsafe conditions. Property owners have ten days to abate the conditions or the City will perform
the work through its contractor. When posting a property a second time within 12 months for the
same violation, the City assesses a posting charge. The property owner is notified of such
outstanding charges every 30 days until the charges are paid.
Each year the City finds it necessary to seek legal recourse in order to recover the uncollected
costs of posting violations and cleaning various parcels throughout the City. This year there is
$76,299 in outstanding charges for parcels cleaned by the City contractor and posted by City
crews (Exhibit 1). The most effective method of collection has been to submit these charges to
the Office of the Orange County Auditor-Controller. The fees are included in the property tax rolls
and, if in default, are payable when the property changes ownership. The County's deadline for
inclusion is August 10, 2010.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
