Description

These 3 run-down buildings have been problematic for years. Drugs, fights, constant noise and regular police visits.

Code enforcement recently visited and green tagged all 3 addresses as unfit for human habitation. Yet, the buidings are still full of people?

The neighbor appreciates code enforcement departments efforts. We really do. The easy part seems to be taping the green posters on doors. The hard, but much more important part of the job, is enforcing what's written on the green posters. Making sure the buildings are actually vacated, then secured, brought up to code standards, inspected and finally rerented. Without strict enforcement, not much changes.
