§ 4-3-20. Notice of city's intention to remove weeds.  


Latest version.
  • Prior to cutting down or removing weeds from private premises, the code enforcement office of the department of sanitation services shall give written notice to the person owning, occupying or controlling the premises that if such weeds are not cut down or removed within ten (10) days from the date of the notice's mailing, and if during such time the property owner does not contest the notice of violation to the City of Pensacola, then the director of sanitation services will cause them to be cut down or removed and the premises will be assessed for the cost thereof. Notice shall be deemed to be sufficient if it is mailed to the occupant of the premises, if any, and the last owner of record on file in the office of the property appraiser. In the event that the mailed notice is undeliverable or returned then the city shall prominently post the notice upon the premises.
