What is the Nuisance Ordinance? The Nuisance Ordinance was enacted 2000 by the Common Council and enables the Milwaukee Police department to impose service fees on landlords who themselves, or their tenants, put an excessive burden on the resources of our police department and our tax payers. It states that when the police department observes 3 or more validated nuisance calls in one month for any property, the police can notify the owner and request a plan to halt the activity at their property. If the property owner does not respond or follow through, all costs for nuisance calls will be placed on the property owner's tax bill. Nuisance activities include, but are not limited to: -Loud music -Loitering -Drug activity -Disorderly Conduct -Battery and domestic violence -Prostitution -Litter -Barking or aggressive dogs -Discharging a firearm -Overgrown, unmowed yards -Unshovelled sidewalks -Building code violations, neglect, and disrepair
