The enhanced Community Services Department continues its services to registered neighborhood associations: registration, mailings, meeting facility assistance, and help with obtaining tools and roll-off containers.
Community Services is now also responsible for investigating code complaints that affect the health and safety of residents by enforcing a number of City regulations such as the Neighborhood Preservation Ordinance, Refuse Code, provisions of the Land Use code, Sign Code and the Peddlers’ Ordinance.

A larger inspection team, composed of individuals who used to report to individual departments such as Development Services and Environmental Services, have joined the Community Services’ inspectors in becoming cross-trained for a more efficient response. A remediation crew will begin in August 2006 to address chronic issues that affect neighborhood quality of life.
