Tired of Trash Talk? The Action Center Listens!
Got a rogue tire dominating your curb appeal? Witnessing a wild grass jungle threatening to swallow your house whole? The Action Center is your one-stop shop for reporting these and other non-emergency code violations. Think of them as your personal butler for battling blight. They'll handle reports of:
- High weeds: Because nobody wants to get lost in a backyard maze.
- Abandoned vehicles: Unless it's the Batmobile, those rusty heaps are best left elsewhere.
- Graffiti: Express yourself creatively, but maybe not on public property.
- And many more! Basically, if it's an eyesore or a potential safety hazard that doesn't involve fleeing felons, the Action Center is here to help.
Important Note: If you're facing a true emergency, dial 911. The Action Center isn't here to play superhero against armed villains (though they'd probably give a good pep talk).
