POLICE DEPARTMENT
Our police officers continue to make our City one of the safest places
to live in the greater Cincinnati area. The majority of crimes
of a serious nature committed over the past year have been closed,
including the most recent where the subject's vehicle was confiscated.
Don't forget, we do home and business checks. If you plan to be away
from home, please stop one of the officers or call the Police
Secretary at the Police Department's non-emergency number 441-6289.
For emergency calls
DIAL 911. .
CITY CLERK'S OFFICE
We have had several requests for clarification on some city
ordinances. Please note the following:
Parking of privately owned motor
vehicles "for sale" is prohibited within the City, unless the vehicle
is parked on the vehicle owner's rented or owned property. Vehicles
may be advertised for sale across the street from a resident's home if
parking is prohibited in front of the residence. Vehicles may also be
parked at the owner's place of work only during the hours that they
are working. All other locations, such as businesses or church lots
are subject to fines.
Building Permits are required for
room additions, decks, fences or any other construction on your
property. Northern Kentucky Area Planning (NKAPC) handles all builing
permits and request. You can review requirements and download
forms at their web site.

Please plan
ahead, since review of a permit takes a minimum of two weeks.
Dogs must be kept contained within
the owner's property, or while off the property be secured by means of
a collar or harness with a chain or leash and held by the owner or
keeper. The City has a "pooper scooper" law, and any pet owner is
required to remove and clean up the animal's excrement from public or
private property.
The City
continually tries to enforce "no parking in fire lane" laws. Besides
being a potential hazard in an emergency (Fire or Police), it is a
greater hazard to traffic and pedestrians who must maneuver around
these vehicles. |
