Summary Explanation and Background
SUMMARY EXPLANATION AND BACKGROUND:
1. This proposed resolution constitutes the final Nuisance Abatement Assessment Resolution in an effort to collect the Nuisance Abatement Special Assessment on the annual Property Tax Bill using the Uniform Assessment Collection Act.
2. The special benefits of Nuisance Abatement services provided by the City to the Assessed Properties include, but are not limited to: (1) the elimination of public-health threats; (2) reducing the accumulation of trash, junk and debris, the excess growth of grass, and any unsafe or unsanitary conditions; (3) removal of piles of debris and wood; and (4) addressing stagnant water on site, particularly in pools. These items, if not addressed and abated, reduce the value of the Assessed Property, increase liability risks to property owners, and are expenditures made by the City that the property owner ultimately is responsible for paying.
3. A Nuisance Abatement Special Assessment has been imposed on two (2) Assessed Properties pursuant to the Ordinance for the removal of refuse and debris prior to Hurricane Irma. The City has complied with the terms of conditions of the Ordinance, including all notices and collection efforts set forth therein.
4. The property owner(s) are responsible for the actual costs of the refuse and debris removal(s) that were conducted by the City.
5. The 2018-19 proposed rate assessment is the same as the advertised rate established by Resolution No. 3607 on June 20, 2018. Proposed Resolution 2018-R-31 provides for the adoption of the final Nuisance Abatement Assessment, as follows:
