A. Recitals (i) 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. (ii) 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. (iii) 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. (iv) 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. (v) Parcels not abated by the completion date were referred to approved contractors to perform the required abatement work, by order of the District. (vi) 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 38573 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.
