Council endorses active code enforcement, manager warns of potential legal costs
Summary
Council agreed to pursue active, equal enforcement of zoning, health and safety and neighborhood preservation codes; Town Manager Suzanne Harvey warned more aggressive enforcement could prompt legal challenges and costs for the Town.
Councilmembers directed staff to pursue active enforcement of the Town’s zoning, health and safety, buildings and construction and neighborhood-preservation codes after hearing resident concerns.
Town Manager Suzanne Harvey told council the administration and police are prepared to be "aggressive," but cautioned that some property owners "may fight us on it and it may end up in court, so it may end up costing us some money." Councilmembers affirmed they wanted active, equal application of the code going forward.
