CUCAMONGA CONFIRMING AN ITEMIZED WRITTEN REPORT

REQUIRED BY CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 39574,
PROVIDING THAT EACH SUCH COST OF ABATEMENT SHALL
CONSTITUTE A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT AGAINST EACH LISTED
PARCEL OF LAND PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE
SECTION 39577, AND PROVIDING FOR THE FILING OF SAID REPORT
WITH THE COUNTY AUDITOR.
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 39502 authorizes the City of Rancho
Cucamonga (City) to adopt an ordinance providing for the removal of grass, weeds, rubbish and other
materials that can be dangerous or injurious to neighboring property or the health and welfare of
residents in the vicinity and make the cost of removal a lien on the property.
WHEREAS, The City adopted Ordinance 832, which is codified as Chapter 8.46 of the Municipal
Code providing for the removal of grass, weeds, etc. as allowed by the Government Code.
WHEREAS, Chapter 8.46 of the Municipal Code authorizes the Rancho Cucamonga Fire
Protection District (District), serving as the City's fire department, to perform weed and fire hazard
abatement on behalf of the City.
WHEREAS, The District provided notice to abate weeds and fire hazards to the owners of record
of non-compliant parcels and provided a completion date for the required abatement, all as required by
law. Owners receiving such notice were advised of their right to object and appeal the order to abate.
WHEREAS, Parcels not abated by the completion date were referred to approved contractors to
perform the required abatement work, by order of the District.
WHEREAS, The District was provided with itemized billings for the cost of abatement for each
parcel by the abatement contractors. Using the itemized contractors' billings, the District prepared an
itemized, written report setting forth all abatement costs for each affected parcel, as required by
California Government Code Section 39574 (written report). Prior to the adoption of this Resolution, the
District billed the owners of record of the affected parcels listed in the written report for the cost of
abatement, plus approved administrative fees as authorized by Government Code Section 39573 and
District's fee resolution (collectively, costs of abatement). Owners receiving such billings were advised of
their right to object and appeal the amount of the bill. None of the costs or fees set forth in the written
report have been paid, nor are any the subject of a pending appeal.
WHEREAS, Attached hereto as Exhibit A, and incorporated by reference herein, are the written
reports required by California Government Code Section 39574, setting forth a true and correct list of
parcels with unpaid weed abatement costs and fees, and the amount of all costs of abatement for each
parcel.
WHEREAS, All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
