Gilroy confirms 118 properties for 2026 weed abatement assessments
Summary
Council adopted a resolution confirming assessments for the 2026 weed abatement program after Santa Clara County identified noncompliant properties; the resolution passed 7–0.
The council adopted a resolution confirming the 2026 weed‑abatement assessment list and allowed county abatement contractor costs and fees to be assessed against properties that remained out of compliance. Staff said the annual process included mailed notices, inspections after a May 15 compliance date, and opportunities for property owners to contact county or fire staff before assessment.
Staff told council the program identified 118 properties for abatement this year, down from higher counts in previous years as vacant parcels are developed. Council adopted the resolution confirming assessments (subject to any valid objections presented tonight) in a unanimous vote, 7–0.
