Summary
The bill expands county courts’ authority to issue warrants for removing rubbish, weeds, brush, and unsafe structures, and to assess civil penalties for ordinance violations. Unpaid penalties become tax‑like assessments that the county treasurer can collect with a 10% collection fee and record as a lien. It gives counties clearer tools to protect health, safety, and property standards.
