County changes code-enforcement notices to allow hand delivery to speed abatement
Summary
Staff said the Board of Supervisors' new county attorney is allowing hand delivery of code-violation notices instead of relying solely on mailed notices, aiming to address cases where the occupant differs from the record owner and to accelerate cleanup of blighted properties.
County staff presented a list of open code violations in Roosevelt and explained a change in process: whereas notices of violation were previously mailed, the county's new Board of Supervisors county attorney now allows staff to hand-deliver notices. Staff said hand delivery helps avoid delays caused when the occupant at a property differs from the recorded owner and should speed efforts to abate blighted homes.
No statutory citations or detailed procedural guidance were provided at the meeting; staff said the change comes from the county attorney's office and that staff will proceed under the new guidance.
