The bill establishes a comprehensive framework for the City of Prichard in Mobile County to manage and eliminate public nuisances, specifically targeting issues such as overgrown grass, weeds, abandoned debris, and inoperable motor vehicles on private properties. It defines essential terms like "administrative official," "enforcing official," and "tax collecting official," and outlines the process by which the city council can declare a public nuisance. The bill details the notification procedures for property owners, their rights to appeal decisions, and the city's authority to enter properties to abate nuisances if owners do not comply.
Furthermore, the bill introduces new provisions for the management of nuisance liens, stating that the state will take possession of properties subject to these liens, regardless of the timing of tax sales related to nonpayment. Upon payment of the nuisance lien, the city clerk must inform the county tax collecting official and may file a notice of satisfaction in probate court records. These provisions are set to take effect on June 1, 2026, and there are no deletions from current law noted in the text.
