Leadership for the City of Clinton is diving in head first to evaluate its strategic plan, and part of that is making sure the City code is easier to understand.

Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers has been appreciative of the effort to provide better clarity not just for his officers but for the community.

The City recently hired a new code enforcement officer, and Chief Lowers indicates he is starting to get a feel for the community and is doing a good job working with the community to get some properties cleaned up.

According to Chief Lowers, the City is truly after the extreme cases of neglect or excessive property neglect. 

Chief Lowers reiterates his Department's stance they are seeking compliance over issuing citations and fines.
