Vacant lots in Coconino County must be kept free of dumped waste and, in the wildland-urban interface, managed for fire fuel. Overgrowth and dry brush that feed wildfire are the distinctive concern in this forested high country.
Empty parcels carry real duties here, and fire is the driving concern. Coconino County lies deep in the wildland-urban interface, and the Zoning Ordinance requires Firewise fuel and weed management in WUI subdivisions, with treatment zones around structures. Dry grass, slash, and accumulated brush on a vacant lot read as wildfire fuel, and the county's wildfire-defense rules reach private property in unincorporated areas. Dumped garbage and debris on a lot is separately a public-health nuisance under A.R.S. §36-601, since it becomes a breeding place for rodents and pests. After notice, the county can abate an out-of-compliance lot and charge the owner.
Dumped waste or unmanaged fire fuel can be cited and, after notice, abated by the county at the owner's expense. Illegal dumping is enforced as a public-health nuisance under A.R.S. §36-601.
