The City of Walker Council has adopted codes [laws] specifically designed to address blight and nuisances, and to maintain a safe and desirable living and working environment for all citizens in our community. The city does this by working in partnership with the people of Walker. We administer a fair and unbiased enforcement program to correct violations of municipal codes and land-use requirements.

The following information must be supplied to begin a case file:
