The City of Madras has appointed Marco Mack as its new Code Enforcement Officer, a position that has been vacant since December 2023. This hire follows an initiative launched in July 2023 when the City and Jefferson County Fire & EMS District collaborated to fund a part-time role to address code enforcement challenges. Mack, who has an extensive background in public service, previously served as a Deputy Fire Marshal in California, focusing on fire prevention efforts. His dedication to community service is demonstrated through his volunteer work with the Jefferson County Fire & EMS District since moving to the Culver area. The City is enthusiastic about Mack's potential contributions, believing his experience will significantly enhance compliance with local regulations.

His appointment is timely, aiming to restore efficient code enforcement within the community. As he begins his role on February 12, 2024, Mack is expected to make immediate impacts. The City looks forward to his efforts in maintaining Madras as a great place to live and work.
