Weed Abatement Season

Ceres has a very rigorous Weed Abatement program that starts in mid-March and usually runs until mid-September. If you notice high, dry weeds in your neighborhood, you can contact the Ceres Fire Department to make a claim at 209-538-5701.  If the condition persists, the Fire Department will intervene in the interest of public safety. This intervention would also likely involve other city agencies, including Code Enforcement and the Police Department if necessary. The person responsible would be asked to voluntarily clean up the area. Failure to correct the problem could result in a citation from the city.
