Action Team: Oakland Code Enforcement Task Force

Mission: Reactivate the Oakland Code Enforcement Task Force and engage more community members to participate in enforcing codes on negligent landlords, housing violations, parking violations, disruptive behavior, excessive noise and underage drinking.

After months of dialogue sessions throughout Oakland, community members formed action teams to tackle  issues they agreed to be top priorities for Oakland. One of these groups, the Oakland Code Enforcement Task Force now meets the third Wednesday of every month and welcome all to attend.
