The Madras Police Department has formalized code enforcement authority with a newly established oath, clarifying officers’ power to investigate violations and issue citations.
This development strengthens the city’s ability to address nuisance issues, distressed properties, abandoned vehicles…and other code-related concerns.
The move is part of a broader strategy to improve public safety and neighborhood appearance, with an emphasis on effective enforcement alongside voluntary compliance.
Residents are encouraged to report violations using the city’s online complaint form.
