Department Status Comments
Assigned
Police Department Fulfilled We do not keep records specific to landlord
tenant disputes. Any of those types of calls
would fall under a generic disturbance, check
conditions or assist citizen call types. If
the applicant has a request specific to an
address we can search it, otherwise, we can`t
thumb through all of those generic call types
to weed out which are tenant/landlord issues.
