1.13.010 - Purpose.
This administrative nuisance abatement process is intended to enable the city to respond effectively to public nuisances in order to maintain and protect the public peace, safety, welfare and order and to provide security and protection to the community from harms and wrongdoings. This process makes available an alternative remedy to instituting a civil suit to enjoin public nuisances by authorizing the administrative body to impose orders and conditions to abate and halt public nuisances.
(Ord. 25523.)
