At the request of the County, this public hearing has been scheduled to provide Arcadia residents, who have been charged an inspection and /or weed abatement charge, an opportunity to protest the charge. DISCUSSION At the City Council meeting of February 3, 2015, the City Council set the date of February 17, 2015, for a Public Hearing regarding the properties in the City which were found to have weeds, brush, and /or rubbish, as determined by the County. At the public hearing, no objections were noted. Property owners had the option of cleaning their properties of weeds and debris or allowing the County to do it for them. If the property owners chose to have the County abate the weeds, the charges would be levied as an assessment by the County Assessor. The County has since informed the property owners of the cost for destroying and removing the weeds on their properties. The County has provided the attached weed abatement charge list (Attachment 1) and a list of properties by address (Attachment 11) within the City on which the County has removed weeds and assessed a charge. The County's annual inspection fee is $41.77, which each property was assessed. Additional charges are due to the County's removal of weeds and debris on the property. Confirm County Weed Abatement Charges July 21, 2015 Page 2 of 2 Each property on the list has been posted and noticed regarding the public hearing. If a property owner objects to the assessed charge during the public hearing, the City Council may elect to have the matter investigated by the Arcadia Fire Department or overrule the objection. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the City as a result of City Council action on this item RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council confirm the weed abatement charges and order the County Auditor to enter the amounts of the assessment against the parcels of land as they appear on the current assessment roll.
