Vacant lots in Hanford must be kept clear of weeds, dry grass, and refuse. Weed abatement is enforced during fire season. Owners who fail to abate violations may have the city perform the work and be billed for the cost as a lien.
Hanford Municipal Code Title 8 (public nuisance) requires vacant lots to be maintained free of weeds, dry vegetation, trash, and debris. The city sends abatement notices before fire season requiring owners to clear combustible vegetation. If owners do not comply, the city contracts the work and charges the cost as a lien on the property.
