Sacramento County conducts an annual weed and rubbish abatement program under California Government Code 39560-39588 and county Title 6. Each spring, Code Enforcement sends Notice of Intent to Abate letters to owners of lots with excessive weeds, grass over 12 inches, or combustible debris. Owners have approximately 30 days to clear the lot. Failure triggers contractor abatement, and all costs plus a 40 percent administrative fee are recorded as a lien against the property collected via property tax bill. Vacant lots must also be fenced if they pose an attractive nuisance.
