Request for approval of the Order Assessing Cost for abatement of nuisances at four locations in Precinct 2 and the assessment of administrative fees totaling $70,511.19.

When a property becomes a nuisance — think overgrown lots, dumped trash, or unsafe structures — the county can step in and clean it up if the owner won't. This vote makes the cleanup costs official and puts them on the record so the county can recover what it spent.

This agenda item covers four locations in Precinct 2. The total bill being assessed against the property owners is $70,511.19.

That includes both the actual abatement work and administrative fees the county charged for managing the process.

This is a vote by the five-member Commissioners Court. It's a public meeting, so residents can attend. If you have questions about the specific properties or want details about the abatement process, the contact listed on the file is Tiffany Amboree at Harris County.

Nuisance abatement is part of how Harris County keeps neighborhoods clean and safe. If you know of a problem property in your area, you can report it to Harris County Precinct 2 or the county's public health and environmental services. Abatement costs that go unpaid can eventually become liens on a property.
