Pasco County Code of Ordinances Chapter 46 enforces weed and overgrown vegetation abatement. Invasive species (Brazilian pepper, cogongrass, air potato) are active management concerns, especially in the Green Swamp and riparian zones of Pasco.
Pasco County Code of Ordinances Chapter 46 (Nuisances) and property maintenance provisions require lots to remain free of excessive weeds, undergrowth, and accumulated vegetation. Code Compliance issues written notices with a compliance window, typically 10 to 30 days. If unresolved, the county contracts abatement and records a special assessment or lien against the property. Invasive exotic species are a significant concern in Pasco — Brazilian pepper, melaleuca, cogongrass, air potato, and Old World climbing fern infiltrate the Green Swamp, Anclote River corridor, and Pithlachascotee River watershed. Florida's year-round growing season with Bahia and St. Augustine grass creates continuous enforcement work. HOAs and CDDs in Wesley Chapel, Trinity, and Land O' Lakes enforce much stricter landscape standards through deed restrictions.
Notice to abate. County clearing: $200 to $1,500 per lot depending on size. Admin fee plus lien. Repeat violations escalate fines.
