After-hours code enforcement in the South End

Summary

Council members Joseph, Hawkins and others say most nuisance complaints — illegal junkyards, unpermitted activity — happen after 5 p.m. when codes officers are off duty. The committee asked the department to price out targeted after-hours enforcement operations, which would require new budgeted funds and union negotiation.
