"Quality Of Life"

One broken window, left unfixed, leads to another.  It says nobody cares – and that says a lot about a community. If nobody cares, then it must be okay to break more windows, or let the trash pile up, or let weeds take over the property. Criminal activity festers.  Formerly known as Operation Fixing Broken Windows, the  Quality of Life Unit joins forces with local government and community organizations to prevent small problems from becoming big ones.

The Gwinnett County Police Department's primary role is to enforce existing ordinances related to litter, trash, dumping, junk cars, parking, signs, graffiti, maintenance, storage, zoning, and occupancy.

In Gwinnett County, people care. We don't tolerate such things as litter, graffiti, illegal signs, peddlers, or illegal dumping. Local laws clearly set standards of acceptable behavior in our communities. Renters and property owners share concerns about the safety and attractiveness of Gwinnett neighborhoods and shopping areas.

The County's primary role is to enforce existing ordinances related to litter, trash, dumping, junk cars, parking, signs, graffiti, maintenance, storage, zoning, and occupancy.
