A resident used the public-comment period to urge the council to take immediate action on code enforcement problems that the speaker said are hurting property values and livability.
"It is the council's responsibility and duty to enforce these existing codes. Immediate and decisive action is is needed," the resident said, citing problems with trash, junked vehicles and misuse of easements.
