Zone Initiative Team
Working closely with the Division of Police, Code Enforcement, Columbus Public Health,
Sanitation and community organizations, this unit focuses on the elimination of
public nuisances that blight the City’s neighborhoods. Whether it is abandoned and
deteriorating houses, open dumping, street prostitution, boot joints, excessive
noise or trash and debris, this unit seeks to eliminate these problems. Using the
statutory jurisdiction (R.C. 1901.181 and 1901.183) of the Environmental Division
of the Franklin County Municipal Court, this unit will file complaints for injunctive
relief, seeking equitable solutions to persistent problems. Mediation will also
be attempted.
In addition to the above staff specifically dedicated to this unit, two attorneys
from the Police Legal Bureau also participate in this mission.
