The NPDES protocols require construction sites to ensure contaminates do not enter the water discharge system. Code Officers discovered a construction site on the 100 block of Bal Cross Drive did not have adequate NPDES barriers and issued the property owner a written Code Violation Warning. Code Officers spoke with the site supervisor and ensured all barriers were in place before the close of the day. The Code Enforcement Unit visited three other construction locations within the gated community located on Bal Cross Drive, Balfour Drive, and Camden Drive. Although these locations had some level of NPDES barriers, they barriers were near their end -of -life and did not appear to sufficiently protect the drainage systems. The site manager for each of these sites agreed to replace the barriers by the end of business day. The Code Enforcement Unit returned to all of the above locations on the day the warnings were issued at 5:00pm and noted all NPDES barriers had been replaced and were property positioned. Criminal Investigations The Criminal Investigations Division (CID) continues to assist Patrol and Police Administration during the Covid-19 emergency. The CID assisted with the compilation of situational reports for staff, and conducted daily patrols of the Village to enhance police visibility.
