Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE,
CALIFORNIA, ORDERING CONFIRMATION OF THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS AGAINST
PARCELS OF LAND WITHIN THE PUBLIC NUISANCE ABATEMENT COSTS FOR THE FISCAL
YEAR 2020 -21.
Background
The City of Lake Elsinore has been administering nuisance abatement for properties in non-
compliance with the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code. The owners of these parcels are billed by the
City to recover the costs, plus incidental expenses. If the owners do not respond to the billing
request, the City is required to place a lien on the property to recover the costs. Staff is requesting
Council approval of a Resolution to allow the City to accomplish the foregoing for Fiscal Year
2020 -21. If the Resolution is approved, staff will forward the adopted Resolution for placement
with the Riverside County Treasurer -Tax Collector.
Discussion
As of June 15, 2020, there are 20 parcels with an outstanding amount totaling $112,302.32
associated with the cost of nuisance abatement. Due to these delinquent accounts staff is
requesting consideration for the outstanding charges to be placed on the property tax roll. If
approved, these costs will be submitted to the County Tax Assessor's Office for reimbursement.
A list of delinquent properties abated by the City is included as Exhibit A to the Resolution.
Fiscal Impact
Other than staff time, all costs associated with the abatement of these delinquent properties will
be placed on the property tax rolls for payment.
