COUNCIL BUSINESS
22 Award of Professional Services Agreement for Weed Abatement Services
Jim Barron, County Fire Department, introduced Captain Brad Harris, Riverside County Fire
Department Hazard Reduction Manager, who made a presentation on the importance of week
abatement and providing defensible space around homes.
Mayor Birdsall requested the Planning Department have available for landscape architects and
developers, a list of low fire intolerant plants for this area. Mr. Thornhill stated the City's
landscape architect will review and comment on appropriate plants when there is an interfacial
issue with wildlands.
Chief Building Official Anthony Elmo presented the staff report.
Councilmember Stone asked if actual liens on forced abatement would come to the Council or
be handled administratively. Mr. Elmo replied the special assessment that go on county
records will be brought to the City Council for approval.
Mayor Birdsall suggested the posted notice state the amount of time the property owner will
11
be given to clear his property, plus the dollar amount Fire Protection Services would charge to
abate the property.
Mayor Birdsall asked if Fire Protection Services would be allowed to contract for weed
abatement as an independent, while under contract with the City. Senior Building Official Tony
Elmo replied there are two conditions that apply to the conflict of interest issue: 1) once the
agreement is signed, the contractor cannot contract independently for weed abatement services
in the City; 2) any forced abatement recommendations must come to staff for authorization
prior to the abatement work being done by the contractor.
Councilmember Stone expressed concern about property owner notification. Mr. Elmo replied
at the time of inspection, the property will be physically posted and a certified notification letter
sent to the property owner which will state the City can provide a list of contractors available
to do the weed abatement.
Mayor Birdsall inquired about property owners being required to clear 30' beyond their property
line. Mr. Elmo stated clearing beyond one's property line may be dictated by individual CC&R's.
City Attorney Thorson pointed out the scope of work states the process the contractor has to
follow to notify property owners of a potential problem. He further stated the agreement
specifies the contractor cannot undertake any forced abatement without the prior written
authorization of the Director of Building and Safety.
Ken Osborne, President of Fire Protection Services, explained the process Fire Protection
Services will follow before doing any abatement work.
It was moved by Councilmember Lindemans, seconded by Councilmember Stone, to approve
staff's recommendation.
