In unincorporated Williamson County, junked vehicles, accumulated rubbish, and dilapidated buildings are public nuisances under Tex. Health & Safety Code §343.011. The Commissioners Court can order abatement after notice, with fines of $50–$200 per day.
Chapter 343 gives Williamson County its main code-enforcement tool outside city limits, since counties cannot zone. Tex. Health & Safety Code §343.011 declares a public nuisance to include accumulating rubbish such as abandoned vehicles, refrigerators, stoves, furniture, and tires visible from a public street for 10 days or more, and maintaining a structurally unsafe or dilapidated building. The county gives written notice; if the nuisance is not abated within 30 days, §343.012 sets a $50–$200 fine, each day a separate offense, and the county may abate and lien the property.
Abandoned vehicles, rubbish piles, and dilapidated structures are nuisances. After a 30-day notice, fines run $50–$200 per day, rising to $200–$1,000 for repeat offenders, plus county abatement and a lien.
