10-16-1: PURPOSE AND INTENT:
In accordance with the provisions of California Government Code section 38773.5, it is the intent of the city council, by the adoption of this chapter, to provide property maintenance standards, and to establish a procedure for abatement in order to preserve livable and reasonably attractive neighborhoods while effectively addressing and preventing hazards to the public health, safety and welfare.
These provisions shall apply to every building or structure and its accessory structures, as well as any and all adjoining grounds, areas or other premises of property (developed or undeveloped) in the city. In all situations where a provision of this chapter conflicts with other building, health, safety or zoning regulations, the more restrictive standard shall prevail. (Ord. 2016-003, 8-23-2016)
