I received notice that my property needs active vegetation management. Where is the management required?
Fire Department and Code Compliance staff have previously conducted an evaluation of your property and determined that your property needs active vegetation management in specified abatement areas only. Typically, these abatement areas no longer contain native vegetation, but consist of previously abated areas where annual weeds and grasses have grown back since last season. In addition to these areas, you should annually inspect for dead shrubs and trees, and remove them from the property. The majority of people who receive this letter should already be familiar with the abatement areas on their property; they are usually the same areas abated every year.

If you are a new property owner, new to the Vegetation Management Program, or are just unsure about the exact areas to cut, please call us at 858-668-4664.
