(LaPorte, IN) - The number of write-ups for code violations in La Porte keeps piling up.
Code enforcement director Jeff Batchelor says they’re at close to 700 now since
the first of the year.
Batchlor told the Board of Works & Safety this week he’s hearing from supporters and opponents
of the aggressive stance being taken to clean up the city.
But, he said more and more people seem to be jumping on the code enforcement.
Tougher code enforcement was promised by mayor Tom Dermody in his pledge to set a higher standard during the campaign prior to him taking office January 1st.
