House Bill No. by Representative Dewitt aims to enhance the administrative adjudication process for certain ordinance violations in the city of Alexandria. The bill enacts R.S. 13:2575.12, which expands the definition of "housing violation" to include not only conditions in privately owned structures that threaten public health, safety, or welfare but also violations related to building codes, zoning, vegetation, nuisance ordinances, and regulations concerning sewerage and drainage systems. This change aligns Alexandria's definitions with those applicable to larger municipalities and parishes.

Additionally, the bill allows for the use of administrative adjudication procedures in Alexandria for matters involving licensing, permits, and other ordinance violations as determined by the city's governing authority. This provision aims to streamline the process for addressing various violations, thereby improving local governance and enforcement of municipal regulations. Overall, the bill seeks to provide clearer definitions and more comprehensive procedures for handling ordinance violations in Alexandria.
