San Leandro Property Maintenance Ordinance prohibits blight conditions such as junk, graffiti, abandoned vehicles, and neglected structures.
San Leandro Municipal Code authorizes Code Enforcement to abate blight including accumulated debris, broken windows, graffiti not removed within 10 days, overgrown weeds, and inoperable vehicles in public view. The city uses an administrative citation process with escalating fines and may record a lien against the property for abatement costs. Chronic nuisance properties can be declared a public nuisance.
Administrative fines start around 100 dollars and escalate. Abatement costs can be assessed as a lien against the property tax roll.
