2024 Metro Vision Award: Code Compliance Assistance Program

Launched in August of 2023, CodeCAP assists qualified residents in mitigating or curing yard code violations within the City of Thornton. CodeCAP is comprised of three parts. The first is free onsite code violation mitigation, organized by CodeCAP and performed by local contractors. Secondly, the CodeCAP enthusiastically seeks and assists local small businesses in bidding on CodeCAP jobs, focusing on minority- and women-owned businesses. Lastly, twice a year, the CodeCAP Coordinator organizes a free volunteer-based neighborhood cleanup in areas identified by the city's Code Compliance Division as having the greatest need.
