Public Health Nuisances

The Jackson County Health Department's Environmental Health Division investigates public health nuisance complaints under authority of Ohio Revised Code 3707.01.  

​

The Environmental Health Division accepts public health nuisance complaints in writing only and investigates complaints to help reduce public health nuisances from occurring in Jackson County.

​

Failure of a property owner to abate a public health nuisance can result in re-inspection fees which are assessed as a lien on the property, court penalties, or other expenses incurred during the nuisance abatement process. 

​

Here you will find our complaint forms​ - If you need to report a public health nuisance, please complete the appropriate form entirely and return to the health department in person, or by fax to 740-286-8809.
