Purpose/Background

Boulder County Community Planning and Permitting is seeking written quotes from qualified vendors to conduct rubbish abatement services, such as rubbish and weed/brush removal, to bring private properties into compliance with Boulder County Land Use Code as well as applicable court orders. Services will be requested on an “as needed” basis.

The number of properties requiring services will vary from year to year. A qualified vendor will need to respond to service requests in a timely manner and complete abatement within the deadlines required by State law and/or Court orders (generally within 10 days from a court order). Boulder County will coordinate with the selected vendor(s) and will, if necessary, coordinate with the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office during abatement.

Article 14-100(A) of the Boulder County Land Use Code reads as follows:

To protect the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Boulder County through the removal of rubbish (including trash, junk, and garbage); weeds and brush; and unsafe or abandoned buildings and structures from land in the unincorporated areas of the County. This includes removal by the County upon notice to and failure of the property owner to remove such rubbish, weeds, or unsafe structures, and the provision for criminal penalties in the event of failure to comply.
