Ticket Comment

Hello,

Thank you for bringing your concerns to the city’s attention. I would like to provide some guidance for some of the concerns that were raised.

Cat Infestation: The City of Lathrop does not have a TNR( Trap Neuter Release) program available at this time. Lathrop Animal Services does not have the means nor the staffing to take on a TNR program. Since cats are considered free roam animals, residence have been advised to invest in cat deterrents to help with the challenges they are facing with unwanted cats on their property.

Weed Smoking and Dirty Front Yards: Community Services Division does not handle criminal complaints regarding marijuana. Please call the non-emergency line at 209-249-1800 if you would like to report a criminal complaint regarding marijuana usage.

If you would like to provide specific addresses for the dirty front yards a Community Service Officer can go out and address the home occupants since we do have Nuisance Municipal codes that would apply. You could call the Community Service Division at 209-647-6430 to report these.

Barking dogs: The city of Lathrop does have a barking dog Municipal Code. In order for law enforcement to get involved an Officer/Community service officer must witness the dogs barking for a continuous 15 minutes at minimum. Please advise residence who are experiencing the persistent dog barking to call the non-emergency number 209-249-1800 to report the Nuisance.

The City Council meetings are held the second Monday of each month at 7:00pm at the City Hall Council Chamber, citizens are encouraged to join.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding Code Enforcement, Animal Services or Parking Compliance please contact us at 209-647-6430, Community Services Division.

 

Thank you,

Angelina Moreno
