SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING TO HEAR Al.~ APPEAL OF NOTICE
OF INTENT TO ABATE ABANDONED VEHICLE
Chapter 10.52 of the Municipal Code provides that the presence of
abandoned, wrecked, dismantled or inoperative vehicles or parts
thereof, on private or public property not including highways is
a public nuisance. Chapter 10.52 does not apply to vehicles or
parts thereof enclosed within a building on private property where
it is not visible from a street or other public or private property
or to vehicles or parts thereof which are stored or parked on
private property in connection with the business of a licensed
dismantler, vehicle dealer, junk dealer or when such storage or
parking is necessary to the operation of a lawfully conducted
business or commercial enterprise.
Pursuant to the agreement with the California Highway Patrol for
enforcement of City's abandoned vehicle ordinance, the CHP sent
a "Notice of Intent to Abate Abandoned Vehicles" to the owners of
adjacent property at 1319 and 1331 Knowles Avenue. There are
four vehicles at 1319 Knowles Avenue and one vehicle at 1331 Knowles
Avenue. The registered owners of the vehicles were sent notices.
The notices were sent by Officer Ward of the CHP, Oceanside Office,
who personally inspectP.d the property in question and took pictures,
obtained serial numbers, etc.
As provided for in Municipal Code Section 10.52.070 the owners of
vehicles in question verbally requested a hearing before the City
Council as provided for in Municipal Code.
The vehicle owners requesting a hearing were notified that a hearing
would be held before the City Council on February 21, 1978. Officer
Ward of the CHP will be present at the hearing.
The procedure for the conduct of the hearing and to guide the City
Council in its determination are set out in Municipal Code Section
10.52.090. (A copy of Section 10.52.090 is attached for the
Council review) •
PUBLIC HEARING TO HEAR AN APPEAL OF NOTICE OF INTENT
TO ABATE ABANDONED VEHICLE
Febru3ry 14, 1978
Page 2
At the conclusion of the hearing, the Council may:
1. Find that a vehicle or part thereof has been
abandoned, wrecked, or dismantled, or is
inoperative and order the sl:l.me removed from
the property as a public nuisance and disposed
of as provided in Section 10.52.100.
2. May delay the time for removal of the vehicle
or part thereof if, in its option, the
circumstances justify it.
3. May imp0se such conditions and take such other
action as it deems appro9riate under the
circumstances to carry out the purpose of
abatement ordinance.
Since very little City staff time and direct expense to the City
is involved jn the enforcement of the abatement ordinance, the
assessment of an administrative charge is not recommended in this
case. In future cases, after we have some experience with the
hearing process, and an administrative charge appears necessary,
a recommended charge will be provided for the Council's
consideration.

SUBJECT: Vehicle Abatement
March 30, 1978
As a result of the Council action of 2/21/78 referring the
matter of abatement of vehicles located at 1319 and 1331
Knowles back to staff, the following was done.
At approximately 1500 hours on 3/28/78 the premises were
inspected and Mr. Swinland and Mr. Merrick were interviewed.
Mr. Swinland stated none of the vehicles in question belonged
to him, but he was aware of the problem. He further stated
that as far as he knew, the vehicles in question were operable
if gas and a battery were installed. Two of the vehicles
(Volkswagens) had the engines out; but they were in the garage
where they were being overhauled by the owner, Merrick.
Although most of the vehicles did have missing parts, they
weren't those necessary to operate the vehicles, i.e. bumpers,
seats, etc. Most of the vehicles had flat tires and were
being used to store miscellaneous items inside them, i.e.
car parts.
There has been an effort to clean up the areas in question
and to remove the majority of the vehicles from sight by
erecting a 6-8 foot fence made of reed and bamboo. Although
this does to some degree screen the vehicles from the street,
it does not conform to the wording of Municipal Code 10.52.
In conclusion it would appear that since the vehic:!.(:!s in
question are neither inoperative or abandoned, that Municipal
Code 10.52 would not apply; and therefore, would not be in
violation. Mr. Merrick should be so informed.
