Alabama SB276 establishes procedures for the City of Alabaster to abate weed nuisances, assess costs, and collect through liens.

Alabama SB276 provides the City of Alabaster with the authority to address weed nuisances. The Mayor must designate an official to enforce these measures. The enforcing official can notify property owners of a nuisance and require its abatement within a specified period. If the nuisance is not abated, the city can proceed to abate it or contract for abatement. Costs incurred are assessed and collected through liens on the property, similar to municipal taxes. The city council can modify the assessment and may hold hearings for property owners to contest the nuisance determination.
