A hoarding ordinance was introduced in a Huntingburg Common Council meeting this week.
The proposed law defines hoarding as the excessive accumulation of personal property that poses risks to public health and safety.
This includes fire hazards, blocked emergency access, and unsanitary conditions.
The City Attorney says enforcing the rule would include requesting property access, and warrants.
The ordinance would give property owners 30 days to comply after receiving notice.
The council will vote on the ordinance on March 11.
