FRESNO – The owners of a Fresno property are alleged to have failed to bring the property into compliance.

The city of Fresno and people of the State of California filed a complaint on May 12 in the Fresno County Superior Court against Yang Vang Khamdee and Does 1 through 10 inclusive alleging that the defendants violated the Fresno Municipal Code.

According to the complaint, the plaintiffs allege that starting in 2010, plaintiffs have issued a notice to the defendants regarding their East Jensen Avenue property to correct public nuisances, including weeds, junk and abandoned RV on the property. Despite numerous inspections of the property, the plaintiffs allege that the public nuisance remains to be corrected and in constant violation of the Fresno Municipal Code. 

The plaintiffs hold the defendants responsible because they allegedly failed to take the necessary corrective action to bring the property into compliance with the municipality's laws and regulations.

The plaintiffs seek payment on all abatement costs, administrative costs, citations, costs of suit and for such other and further relief as the court deems proper. They are represented by Kenneth J. Jorgensen, deputy city attorney, and Douglas T. Sloan, city attorney.
