Council closes weed‑abatement protest hearing and adopts county list for abatement
Summary
After a staff presentation, the council closed the protest hearing on the County's 2026 weed‑abatement declaration list (1,614 parcels identified) and adopted the resolution to proceed with abatement under county contract; inspection fee for the cycle is $59.07.
Monterey Park held its annual weed‑abatement protest hearing as required after the County posted a declaration list. Jessica Meyer Marshall (staff) summarized the county submission: 1,614 improved and unimproved parcels were identified as requiring abatement in 2026 and notices were mailed in January; the Los Angeles County inspection fee is $59.07 for this cycle.
No parcel owners presented formal protests during the hearing. Council moved to adopt the staff recommendation and to proceed with abatement services through the County; the motion passed unanimously. Staff noted the city has contracted with the County for abatement services since 1992 and warned that removed parcels could be re‑listed if they again become nuisances in the future and would require individual protest hearings at that time.
There were no public protests recorded during the hearing; council approved the related resolution and directed staff to coordinate with County procedures for notice and abatement.
