As part of my commitment to focus more on education and outreach of our city ordinances,
Neighborhood Services Department has created the attached fact card that provides
information on the most common code violations in residential zoned areas. Currently,
these fact cards are being distributed at community meetings and each code compliance
officer has been given a supply of fact cards to distribute to our residents. This is a
wonderful opportunity for our code compliance officers to provide information to our
residents on city codes without initiating enforcement action.
These infof.~ation cards are a part of the ongoing process to refocus the Citys code
compliance efforts. As we move forward with these efforts, the Commission and
community will see an improved and more customer fdendly division.
In order to be more effective with our educational campaign, we have also produced the
fact card in Spanish. Additionally, we will be translating all future educational materials
such as, the Resident Guide, to Spanish so all of our residents will have access to our
information.
