Board of Supervisors
Contra Costa County
Date: May 24 2011 Public Comment
Philip Ludolph, Building Inspection Department Code Enforcement Officer, regarding efforts to address
situations in which neighbors have difficulty with one another on property issues, and the importance of
having code enforcement officers to assist the public in resolving property disputes and addressing blight
and unsafe building problems in the community; Mr. Ludolph is one of several to have received a layoff
notice, and urges the Board to carefully consider the impact of having reduced services available to the
community;
Rollie Katz, Public Employees' Union Local One, spoke in regards to layoffs next week in the Code
Enforcement Division and the Division's necessary role in public health and safety; he reminded the Board
that this division generates revenue and any savings achieved cannot be used in any other budget area. Mr.
Katz encouraged the Board to look at assessing penalties on properties which require abatement services.
