City Manager’s Report
HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL 9
FROM:CITY MANAGER DEPARTMENT :ADMINISTRATIVE
SERVICES
DATE:APRIL 12, 2004 CMR: 209:04
SUBJECT:PUBLIC HEARING TO CONFIRM THE REPORT OF THE
DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES REGARDING
DELINQUENT COSTS AND ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTIES
RELATING TO 1042 METRO CIRCLE AND 3376 ROSS ROAD
AND TO RECORD LIENS AGAINST THE PROPERTIES WITH
THE SANTA CLARA COUNTY RECORDER’S OFFICE.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of a resolution (Attachment A) confirming delinquent costs
and administrative penalties that have remained unpaid as o£April 12, 2004 and directing
staff to record liens against the properties located at 1042 Metro Circle and 3376 Ross
Road with the Santa Clara County Recorder’s Office. Staff recommends that Council
record property liens of $37,312 against 1042 Metro Circle and $101,939 against 3376
Ross Road, unless evidence received at the public hearing provides good cause to
discharge or modify the amounts due and owing.
BACKGROUND
George L. Bradshaw and Karen W. Bradshaw are the owners of residential properties
located at 3376 Ross Road and 1042 Metro Circle. In 1995 and 1997, respectively, City
code enforcement staff conducted inspections of the properties that revealed substandard
housing conditions as well as municipal code violations pertaining to property
maintenance. In 2000, City code enforcement staff served George L. Bradshaw with
administrative compliance orders providing him with deadlines to comply with the code.
The Bradshaws failed to meet the deadlines and the cases were set for administrative
compliance hearings.
The administrative compliance hearings took place in 2000 and 2001, respectively. At the
conclusion of the hearings, the City hearing officer ruled that the Bradshaws still were
not in compliance. He ordered compliance and imposed costs and administrative
penalties. The costs imposed by the hearing officer were fixed dollar amounts to
compensate the City for the costs of enforcement that already had been incurred. The
CMR:209:04 Page 1 of 5
administrative penalties that were imposed were incurred on a daily basis based on the
Bradshaws’ compliance or non-compliance after the hearing. The hearing officer
directed the Bradshaws to contact the code enforcement officer when they had complied
with his orders so that daily penalties would not accrue further. These decisions and
orders were based on code enforcement actions taken by the Department of Planning and
Community Environment.
A brief summary of the cases and administrative costs and fines is provided in
Attachment B. Narratives of the actual hearings and case history for each property can be
found in Attachments C and D.
Since the hearing officer made his rulings, the Bradshaws have partially complied with
the hearing officer’s orders on improvements. As of April 1, 2003, the property at 1042
Metro Circle was determined by City staff to comply with the hearing officer’s orders.
City staff calculated the total amount of administrative penalties due as of that date and
stopped calculating daily penalties. Costs and penalties due to the City as of April 1,
2003 were $37,312. The Bradshaws have made no payment on this amount.
Ongoing violations of the hearing officer’s orders continue at 3376 Ross Road, and
administrative penalties for the ongoing violations continue to accrue. These ongoing
violations are: failure to receive final inspection approval for the required repair work on
the roof overhang, failure to remove all vehicles to paved ground, and failure to remove
or move to a permitted structure a red colored metallic artifact and sailboat. As of June
27, 2003, costs and penalties on the property totaled $107,939. Additional, non-invoiced
costs and penalties totaling $29,000 have accrued through April 12, 2004. Of this total,
only $20,000 can be invoiced and recorded as a lien since the property owner has 90 days
from the date of penalty to remit payment before a lien can be recorded. City staff
stopped invoicing after June 27, 2003.
As evidenced in the narrative above and in the attachments, City staff has made
numerous attempts at collection of the costs and administrative penalties due and owing.
For example, George L. Bradshaw and Karen W. Bradshaw were mailed invoices
consistently by Revenue Collections/Administrative Services Department (See
Attachment F). After exhausting all remedies for payment, the Administrative Services
Department sent a Notice of Public Hearing to George L. Bradshaw and Karen W.
Bradshaw advising them of the lien hearing (Attachment G). George L. Bradshaw and
Karen W. Bradshaw were determined to be the property owners of record as of February
26, 2004 based on Santa Clara County Assessor’s records and preliminary title reports.
CMR:209:04 Page 2 of 5
DISCUSSION
Since George L. Bradshaw and Karen W. Bradshaw continue to violate compliance
orders on the 3376 Ross Road property and have not paid any penalties to date, the
proposed liens are being presented to City Council. Consistent with state law, the Palo
Alto Municipal Code allows for .the imposition of property liens for costs and
administrative penalties ordered because of violations of code provisions relating to
specific real property.
The purpose of imposing property liens is to secure payment of costs and administrative
penalties due and owing to the City and to establish a priority for the payment of those
debts over debts of other creditors, including most non-secured debts and future secured
debts. After the liens have been recorded, the City will relinquish them after full
payment has been received. If full payment is not received, the City may satisfy the
amount of the debts by levy and sale of the real property by writ of execution or
foreclosure action. In addition, any future purchasers of the properties are subject to the
liens. Typically, a purchaser of real property s.ubject to liens will make the satisfaction
of the liens a condition of the purchase of the property.
The Palo Alto Municipal Code requires the Council to hold a hearing prior to the
imposition of a property lien and then confirm, discharge or modify the amount of the
lien. Council’s options are as follows:
1)Confirm the amount of the lien: The amounts currently due and owing are debts that
were imposed after full evidentiary hearings and are based on orders of the hearing
officer.. The Bradshaws did not appeal the orders of the hearing officer and the
amounts that are subject of the liens are:
1042 Metro Circle $ 37,312
3376 Ross Road
3376 Ross Road
$107,939
$ 20,000
Invoiced through June 27, 2003
Collectible Non-Invoiced Penalties
Total $165,251
2)Modify the lien amounts: Based on evidence received at the public hearing, the
Council has the authority to modify the lien amounts.
3)Discharge the lien amount: The lien amounts are a debt owed to the City. The
Council has the authority to discharge the debtors of the lien amount in full based on
evidence presented at the hearing.
4)Defer action on recording property liens: The Council has the authority to defer action
on recording real property liens. Because real property liens are only one means of
collection of costs and administrative penalties, the Council may defer action should
CMR:209:04 Page 3 of 5
there be other reasonable alternatives for obtaining compliance and collecting of
amounts due and owing. The Council also may defer action to allow City staff to
send additional invoices to the Bradshaws to account for unpaid daily penalties due on
the Ross Road property of $100 per day since June 27, 2003.
Staff recommends that Council exercise its option to modify the lien amount on 3376
Ross Road to $1,939 in administrative costs and a maximum $100,000 in fines for a total
of $101,939, In addition, staff recommends that a lien of $37,312 be placed on the 1042
Metro Circle property.
Staff is cognizant of the magnitude of the recommended lien. The extent of the lien,
however, is, in large part, due to the non-responsiveness of the property owners to make
improvements as required by City code.
RESOURCE IMPACT
If Council approves staff’s recommendations, the City would place liens totaling
$1.39,251 on the properties. If the property owners do not begin payment on the liens, the
City’s chief recourse is to receive payments in the event of a property transfer or
foreclosure.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
State law and the City’s Municipal Code provide clear direction on the process and
procedures for imposing costs and fines related to code violations. It is within Council’s
prerogatives, however, to listen to the property owner’s reasons for non-compliance and
adjust the penalties based on the evidence provided. To not impose fines would
undermine the City’s ability to enforce the codes that foster public safety and the
common good.
