DISCUSSION The City's Dangerous and Abandoned Building (DABS) Program has proven to be an effective tool to abate dangerous and abandoned structures that create an attractive nuisance and may harbor illegal activity. The abatements are accomplished by boarding up the structures and in some cases demolishing the building. Property owners are notified and given 2 to 30 days to abate the illegal conditions. If the property owner does not correct the violations within the required timeframe, the City through its contractors, will perform the work. The property owners are then notified of the outstanding abatement costs every 30 days until the Planning and Building Agency is reimbursed for the expenditure. Each year, the City finds it necessary to seek legal recourse in order to recover the uncollected costs expended for abatement of dangerous and abandoned properties. This year the outstanding charge for work performed on eight parcels is $5,904.29 (Exhibit 1). The property owner information is provided in Exhibit 2. The most effective method of collection is to submit these charges to the office of the County Auditor/Controller in order that they may be placed as a lien on the property tax rolls. Charges must be submitted to the County of Orange by their deadline of August 10, 2017. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal # 5 - Community Health Livability, Engagement and Sustainability, Objective # 4 (Support neighborhood vitality and livability). 7513-1 Recovery of Uncollected Costs for Abatement of Dangerous and Abandoned Buildings July 5, 2017 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT The recovered charge will result in an estimated $5,904.29 deposited in the Special Repair and Demolition Fund (Account No. 12116002-53507).
