Code Enforcement Board Issues $500 Citations for Illegal Dumping

The City of Louisville, KY is using some well thought out and effective tactics to stop illegal trash dumping. To scale the enormity of the illegal dumping problem, this city installs a FlashCAM-880 system for two-three weeks at a chronic dumping location, followed by a look-a-like dummy unit. Then the FlashCAM is moved to a different location.

Pete Flood, Code Enforcement Inspector says, “Everyone wants a FlashCAM for their alley or street. Public acceptance of our program has been excellent.” The city has set up a code enforcement board and is now issuing $500 citations to offenders getting caught by the cameras illegally dumping.
