SUBJECT: CONFIRM THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURAL COMMISSIONER/WEIGHTS AND MEASURES WEED
ABATEMENT CHARGES
Recommendation: Approve
SUMMARY
Annually, the County of Los Angeles Agricultural Commissioner/Weights and Measures
(the "County ") abates weeds, rubbish, and refuse from certain properties within the City
of Arcadia. 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.

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.

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.
