5-3-2: NUISANCE VEHICLES; PROCEDURES: A. Nuisance Declared: The accumulation and storage of abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, inoperative, or not currently licensed or registered vehicles, or parts thereof, on private or public property creates a condition tending to reduce the value of surrounding private property in the vicinity and promotes blight and deterioration, creates fire hazards, constitutes an attractive nuisance creating a hazard to the health and safety of minors, is a harborage for rodents and insects injurious to the health, safety and general welfare of the public and is, therefore, a public nuisance within the meaning of Idaho Code 50-334.

B. Notice to Remove: Should the Nuisance Vehicle Inspector be informed of or observe the existence of a nuisance, he shall inspect the vehicle, and if, in his opinion, the vehicle is a nuisance, he shall notify the owner of the real property on which the nuisance vehicle is located, as determined from the records of the County Assessor, and the occupants of the premises, if occupied, of the fact that, in his opinion, the vehicle is a nuisance, and he shall instruct them as to the manner in which they can remedy the situation and the time within which to do so, which in no event shall be more than ten (10) days after this notice. Notice by first class mail to the record owner of the property and the occupants of the premises, if known, at their last known address is sufficient.

C. Failure to Remove; Hearing:

1. If the nuisance has not been abated as provided in subsection B above, the Nuisance Vehicle Inspector shall notify the Mayor of the nuisance; the Mayor shall set a time for a public hearing in the Council chambers to be held on the question of whether or not the vehicle is a nuisance, the manner in which it may be abated and the time within which it shall be abated.

3. At the public hearing any interested party may be represented by counsel and introduce evidence by testimony or otherwise, or may submit his position on the question by written statement. The Council shall determine whether the vehicle is a nuisance, and if it is so found, declare the same to be a nuisance and notify the persons or parties upon whom notice has been served or who appeared at the hearing in defense of the declaration of a nuisance of its decision and may impose such conditions and take such action as it deems appropriate under the circumstances to carry out the purpose of this Chapter. It shall state the manner in which the nuisance may be abated and the time within which it
shall be abated.

If an interested party makes a written presentation at the hearing but does not appear, he shall be notified of the decision by the Council by written decision mailed to the party by first class mail. If the party maintaining the nuisance does not remedy the situation or abate the nuisance within the time prescribed by the decision of the Council, which time limit shall not be less than ten (10) days, and no more than twenty six (26) days, the owner of the vehicle will thereby forfeit all right, title and interest therein.

Should it appear at the hearing that the party permitting or causing the nuisance is the owner of the real property from which the vehicle was removed, either as recorded owner or contract buyer, and the costs pro- vided for in this subsection are not paid within thirty (30) days, costs shall be levied as a special assessment against such property and certified to the Tax Collector of the County by the Clerk as provided by Idaho Code 50-1008. Whether or not the costs are levied as a special assessment is within the sound discretion of the Council, and the Council in its discretion, may
order the City Attorney to collect such costs by civil action.

F. Notice to State: Within five (5) days after the abatement of the nuisance, notice shall be given to the State of Idaho Department of Law Enforcement identifying the vehicle, or part thereof removed, as fully as possible. At the same time, any registration, certificate or license plates found on or with the vehicle shall be transmitted to the State of Idaho Department of Law Enforcement, or at their direction, to any other state or county agency.
