The South Hutchinson City Council on Monday approved changes to the city’s nuisance codes with the intent of making it easier to enforce violations involving tall grass and junk vehicles. With the changes, the city plans to ramp up enforcement beginning in August, said City Administrator Joseph Turner. “Code enforcement is one of the best investments a community can make to protect property values and improve public safety,” Turner stated in a release. “Blight and other nuisances invite meth heads and other degenerates to steal catalytic converters, commit property crimes and victimize our hardworking taxpayers.”
