[Adopted 7-11-2018 by Ord. No. 11-2018]
There is hereby established a Division of Code Enforcement within
the Police Department. The Division's primary function shall be enforcement
of the ordinances of the City of Linwood, including but not limited
to animal control, property maintenance and zoning and planning. In
executing that function, the Division of Code Enforcement may call
upon the sworn Police Department or other law enforcement officers
for such assistance as is necessary.
All civilian code enforcement officers shall be appointed by
the Chief of Police, with the advice and consent of City Council.
The Division of Code Enforcement shall be staffed with such further
civilian code enforcement officers and civilian clerical staff as,
from time to time, are appointed by the Chief of Police with the advice
and consent of City Council. Each code enforcement officer appointed
hereunder shall be considered a "code enforcement officer" as that
term is used in Rule 7:2-2(a)(3) of the New Jersey Court Rules.
All code enforcement officers and clerical staff of the Division
of Code Enforcement shall report to the Chief of Police. The Chief
shall develop a standard operating procedure outlining the respective
duties and responsibilities of the code enforcement officers and setting
operational priorities.
The Chief of Police will exempt the Division of Code Enforcement from coverage of any or all portions of the Linwood Police Department rules and regulations (also known as the "Police Manual"). The Code Enforcement Official and the subordinate code enforcement officers and clerical staff of the Division of Code Enforcement shall not be deemed to be sworn members of the Police Department within the meaning of any provision of Title 40A, Chapter 14, of the Revised Statutes of New Jersey.
