REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br />JULY 5, 2017 <br />TITLE: <br />PUBLIC HEARING - RESOLUTION <br />AFFIRMING THE WEED ABATEMENT <br />PUBLIC NUISANCE REPORT FOR <br />UNCOLLECTED CHARGES AND <br />POSTINGS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2016-2017 <br />(STRATEGIC PLAN NO. 5,4E) <br />c <br />CITY fdANAGER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />r_1:2=1619AW <br />❑ As Recommended <br />❑ As Amended <br />❑ Ordinance on 1" Reading <br />❑ Ordinance on 2n° Reading <br />❑ Implementing Resolution <br />❑ Set Public Hearing For <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Adopt a resolution affirming the Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Weed Abatement Program Report and <br />authorizing the transmittal of uncollected weed abatement charges and postings to the Office of <br />Auditor -Controller, County of Orange, for collection. <br />The Public Works Agency operates a year-round program to maintain private properties free of <br />weeds and rubbish. In accordance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 16-55, when unsightly <br />or unsafe conditions are identified, City sanitation inspectors provide a courtesy notice to property <br />owners with a 7 -day Notice to Clean Premises. If the property is not cleaned by the seventh day, <br />a Notice of Abatement is posted and mailed indicating that the City will perform the abatement <br />work through its own contractor after a 10 -day period. If the City performs the clean-up, property <br />owners are notified of the charges and are provided an opportunity to submit payment to the City, <br />averting a property assessment via the Orange County Auditor -Controller's Office. When a <br />property is posted a second time within 12 months for the same violation, the City assesses a re - <br />posting charge. Property owners have a minimum of 30 days and up to the time that the City <br />submits the collection order to the County to make their payment(s). <br />This year, there is $2,860.31 to date in outstanding charges for parcels cleaned by the City <br />contractor and posted by City Staff (Exhibit 1). Filing a property assessment through the County <br />is the most effective method of collecting the outstanding charges. The charges are placed on <br />the corresponding property tax rolls and paid through regular property tax assessments to the <br />County of Orange. If a property is in default, the charges are collected when the property <br />changes ownership. The County deadline for inclusion is August 10, 2017. The total amount of <br />outstanding charges is subject to change, due to payments received following the Council <br />75A-1 <br />
