I'm a Code Enforcement Officer in a small town south of Raleigh. We have a large amount of abandoned houses with no heir able to be found during the title search process or the owners are no longer living at the property due to reasons out of their control and having no means to improve the property. These abandoned homes become occupied by squatters which brings all of the issues associated with that. I work closely with the police department to vacate these squatters but it's never a permanent fix. Do you have a point of contact that I could reach out to within your code enforcement/planning department that I could discuss the long-term or permanent solutions your city has come up with to address this issue that I'm sure has occurred in your city as well?
Great video. It really gives a good overview of some of the types of activities that are involved in a typical day for this job. I was impressed by all three of the staffers featured in this video, but was particularly impressed by Brian's concern for the well being of those that he interacts with as part of his job, and his willingness to seek out available resouces to assist residents, when possible.
I've lived in my house for 24 years. Never had any Notice Of Violation letters sent to my house. Now all of a sudden I've had 3 in the past year. I think this lady is targeting me.
Why don't the towns have these code enforcers? We have a resident in our neighborhood that has 3 junked vehicles in his backyard one on gravel the other 2 behind a shed on the dirt. Also cars parked on the front lawn. We feel that this is bringing rodents. Their next door neighbor has a mice problem.
