Noxious weeds and overgrown vegetation on private lots in Citrus Heights are subject to nuisance abatement and county agricultural commissioner noxious weed rules.
The city enforces weed abatement through Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District under California Government Code Sections 39560 through 39588. Noxious weeds listed by the California Department of Food and Agriculture under Food and Agricultural Code Section 5004 must be controlled by property owners. Common Sacramento County concerns include yellow star thistle, puncturevine, and medusahead. Vacant lots must be disced or mowed before fire season. Owners are notified annually, with public hearings for properties on the abatement list. Failure to comply results in contracted clearance with costs placed as a lien.
