TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: KEVIN SMITH, CHIEF OF POLICE
VIA: CRISTIAN GONZALEZ, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: 2022 WEED ABATEMENT ASSESSMENTS
DATE: SEPTEMBER 13, 2022
ISSUE
Should the City Council adopt Resolution No. 22-56, authorizing the placement of special assessments on the 2023/2024 tax roll for 2022 nuisance abatement costs?
BACKGROUND
The Code Enforcement department has performed abatements on properties within the City of Mendota (City) with weeds on them (constituting a public nuisance). A total of 12 properties were forcibly abated.
Following a first initial notice and a second courtesy notice, properties were checked for compliance, and if property owners failed to address the public nuisance, they were informed that the City would proceed with a forced abatement if they did not comply. While some property owners abated the nuisance on their own, those that did not do so were forcefully abated by a private contractor hired by the City (at list of the bids for the contractors is attached).
ANALYSIS
The attached resolution includes the cost that will be assessed to each parcel to recover the costs the City incurred through abatement proceedings. The Cost Report and Summary (the “Report”) that is attached to the resolution was submitted and filed with the City Clerk. All detected properties were abated before the 4th of July holiday in order to decrease the risk of a destructive fire on those properties. The costs listed within the Report and Resolution is what is being considered by Council to be added to the 2023/2024 tax roll.
In accordance with the Mendota Municipal Code, a notice of this public hearing was posted on each property and mailed to each property owner impacted. The notice of the public hearing was also posted on the kiosk outside City Hall. Letters were also mailed out to the property owners detailing the amount that is owed, notifying them that they have the ability to pay the abatement costs prior to the assessment and that they also have the right to submit a written or oral protest before or during the public hearing at this Council meeting.
Staff recommends that the City Council discuss the item, invite members of the public to comment on the matter, and consider the attached resolution for adoption. Once the City Council adopts the resolution, staff will be able to move forward with placing the abatement assessments 2 on the 2023/2024 tax roll. Each property owner will have the corresponding amount described in the Report levied on their upcoming property tax bill and will be required to remit payment.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approximately $23,745.14 spent to abate, which will be recovered by assessing the property owners on their property tax bills.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 22-56, authorizing the placement of special assessments on the 2023/2024 tax roll for 2022 nuisance abatement costs.
