In unincorporated Pinal County, owners and occupants must remove rubbish, trash, weeds, filth, debris, and dilapidated buildings that are a public nuisance within 30 calendar days after a Notice to Abate served by Development Services. "Weeds" means all vegetation growing on streets or private property.
Title 12 (Nuisances) of the Pinal County Development Services Code, updated by Ordinance 2024-PZ-C-002-24, is the county's core property-cleanliness rule for the unincorporated area. It defines "Weeds" as all vegetation of any sort growing on sidewalks, streets, alleys, or private property, and makes uncleared rubbish, trash, weeds, filth, debris, or dilapidated buildings a public nuisance. After a Notice to Abate is served (not less than 30 calendar days before the compliance date), the owner, lessee, or occupant must remove the nuisance and provide a disposal-facility receipt. There is an administrative appeal to a Civil Hearing Officer.
Failure to abate within 30 days lets the county abate the nuisance and recover costs; a civil hearing officer decides appeals, with 30 more days to comply if the appeal is denied.
