What can be done about junk in a neighbors yard?
There is a nuisance ordinance prohibiting the accumulation of more than one cubic yard of debris on property classified as urban residential zoned areas when it is visible from adjacent property. In the rural zones more than two (2) cubic yards of junk and debris in the front and side yard are a violation of code when visible from adjacent property. When a complaint is registered, the Code Enforcement Office will contact the violator and monitor the property until the nuisance is cleaned up. Most nuisance violations are cleaned up in about 30 days. CCC 9.24.
