§ 39571 Nuisance Abatement Orders

• •If no one complains about a messy property, the government can order the cleanup of weeds, trash, and dirt.
• •The government makes this decision through a formal vote or motion.
• •The cleanup order is given to the superintendent, who is in charge of fixing the problem.

Your neighbor's yard is full of tall weeds, old furniture, and trash.

If no one complains, the city can still decide to make your neighbor clean it up. They will vote on it and then tell the person in charge to get it done.
