RECOMMENDED ACTION:

their properties.
2. Adopt a Resolution approving the cost assessments for abatement and directing the City Clerk to file a
certified copy of the Resolution with the San Diego County ASSESSOR on or before August 10, 2016.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
In Exhibit 3 of the Council's Resolution 2016-077 dated April 26, 2016, staff was directed to search for the
presence of hazardous combustible material. For those parcels found to be a public nuisance, the
abatement is complete and the costs associated with it. Including the city's administrative fee, are herein
submitted for Council review and approval.
At the direction of the Fire Department, the city's weed abatement contractor abated hazards on eight
(8) parcels, one (1) of which was an undivided interest. Abatement was achieved primarily by means of
mowing and hand labor. The contractor's fees per abated parcel range from $291.00 to $1,855.00 with
an average of $707.33. Five (5) parcels incurred abatement charges in excess of $500.00.
Each parcel will be charged for the actual work performed by the city's contractor, plus an administrative
fee of $163.00. The total amount per parcel will be forwarded to the County Assessor for inclusion on the
property tax bill.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All costs associated with the hazard abatement on the privately owned parcels are recoverable, through
a special assessment on each property owner's property tax bill.
