Hello,
The Visalia Police Department does not have any reports that show a nuisance property ordinance. Can you narrow the search of the request so I can contact Code Enforcement with specifics please?
Thank you in advance.

HI Jenny,
"On May 16, 2024 I sent a response indicating that the Visalia Police Department does not have reports that list a nuisance property ordinance. If you can please narrow the search, it may be something that our Code Enforcement can provide. I have confirmed with VPD they do not have any documents responsive to this request.
Thank you,
Michelle"

Hello,
Does Visalia still use the 'Housing used for drug activity ordinance', referenced in Sec. 15.44.240 of the city code? If the Visalia PD is not responsible for this information, can you direct me to the appropriate department for information on the utilization of this ordinance?
Best,
Jenny

Hello,
I checked with our neighborhood preservation department as well. The City of Visalia Code Enforcement department does not have any records/cites for housing used for drug activity for the past year.
Thank you,
