Properties that contain hazard trees and that do not have (1) an approved Government Hazard Tree Removal Program ROE, (2) an approved inspection access form for the Private Tree Program or (3) an approved Arborist's/Forester's Certification by the deadline set by the Board, are declared a public nuisance and health hazard and such properties may be abated pursuant to this article.
The Board may set a deadline for the completion of hazard tree removal by resolution. Properties that have hazard trees from the LNU Complex Fire after that deadline are declared a public nuisance and health hazard and such properties may be abated pursuant to this article.
The Board's intent is to facilitate orderly remediation of a large scale disaster. Nothing in these deadlines shall limit the authority of the County to abate hazards more quickly where required by exigent circumstances.
