Ch. 16, Sec. 16-13(a) ACCUMULATION OF VEGETATION PROHIBITED Each owner, lessee, tenant, resident or occupant shall maintain a property so it is free of the accumulation or untended growth of vegetation. The accumulation or untended growth of vegetation means the presence of plants on property that create a fire, safety or health hazard, or that attract vermin either on the property, on neighboring properties, or on both, and includes but is not limited to: (1) Any lawn grass that exceeds 6 inches in height; (2) All weeds that exceed 6 inches in height; (3) Dead trees and dead shrubs; (4) Dead palm fronds within ten feet of the ground, a structure, a fence or wall, or of any combustible other than the tree from which the fronds have grown; (5) Any tree, shrub, or other form of vegetation of any kind on the property or on the adjoining right-of-way, street, or alley that extends over or under the sidewalk space or roadway in a manner that may interfere with the reasonable use of the street, sidewalk, or alley for pedestrian or vehicular traffic of any kind or that may obstruct the view or light distribution of traffic-control devices or luminaries. Vegetation must be trimmed and maintained to provide an unobstructed pedestrian path a minimum 48 inches in width and 80 inches in height from grade.
10/05/2022 T.C. Ch. 16, Sec. 16.61(g) If the code official observes a violation of sections 16-13(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or 16-33 and serves a written notice of violation pursuant to section 16-45 and the violation has not been completely abated within thirty (30) days, then the violation is presumed to constitute a health or fire hazard. The code official may then go upon the property and abate the violation at the expense of the owner of responsible party. Any and all costs arising from the city’s action to abate the violation shall be a lien filed against the real property that is the subject of the violation. A verified statement of the cost of expenses shall be prepared and charged pursuant to rules, procedures and regulations promulgated by the appropriate code official to the last known address of the responsible person. In determining costs, the city may charge twice the rate established by Mayor and Council resolution for the collection of trash and refuse. If the charged person has a utility services account with the city, the costs may be charged to that account. If more than one (1) person is responsible for the violation, such persons shall be jointly and severally responsible for the payment of costs or expenses of the abatement. The payment may be in addition to any civil of criminal penalty imposed pursuant to this code. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS NOTICE OF VIOLATION WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS MAY RESULT IN THE CITY OF TUCSON ABATING THE VIOLATION. ANY COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE ABATEMENT WILL BECOME THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER.
