West Covina requires weed control as part of property maintenance standards. Overgrown vegetation on public or private property can be reported through the city's GOGov portal for enforcement.
Under the West Covina Municipal Code, it is unlawful and a public nuisance for any person owning, leasing, occupying, or having charge of residential property to allow violations of vegetation maintenance standards. Public Safety Officers have authority to expeditiously abate problems endangering health, safety, and welfare. The abatement process requires cleanup or repair of properties in violation. Staff responds promptly to property maintenance complaints and works with owners to prevent and correct violations. File complaints at (626) 939-8426 or online.
Public nuisance declarations lead to abatement proceedings. Progressive enforcement from education to citations applies.
