BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County Ordinance Code Article 14-6.4 and Government Code Section 25845 authorize the recovery
of abatement costs in public nuisance cases, the recordation of a Notice of Abatement Lien, and inclusion of
abatement costs on the tax roll as a special assessment upon approval of the Board of Supervisors.
The Notice and Order to Abate was posted on the above-referenced property for construction debris and scrap
materials and served on the property owner and all persons known to be in possession of the property by certified
mail on June 5, 2012.
The property owner did not file an appeal. The County Abatement Officer abated the nuisance on July 14, 2012.
The property owner was billed for the actual cost of the abatement and all administrative costs. The bill was sent
by certified and first-class mail to the property owner on July 30, 2012. The property owner did not pay the bill
within 45 days of the date of mailing.
Notice of this Cost Hearing was sent to the property owner by certified mail by the Clerk of the Board. For proof
of service, see Clerk of the Board at 651 Pine Street, Room 106, Martinez, CA
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved the County will not be able to recover costs for abatement on code violations for this property.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
