TARGETING A NUISANCE LOCATION The first step is to determine whether the illegal activity at the targeted property constitutes a common or public nuisance as defined in the nuisance abatement statutes. A nuisance abatement action should be considered and an investigation should be initiated if the answer to any of the following questions is “yes”: • Is the property used for prostitution; gambling; the discharge of a firearm; organized criminal activity; the delivery, possession, manufacture or use of controlled substances; obscenity; gang activity; or violations of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code? • Is a multi-unit residential property used for prostitution; gambling; the discharge of a firearm; organized criminal activity; the delivery, possession, manufacture or use of controlled substances; obscenity; aggravated assault; sexual assault; aggravated sexual assault; robbery; aggravated robbery; unlawfully carrying of a weapon; murder; capital murder; gang activity; or violations of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code? • Is there a history of arrests for one or more of these illegal activities at the property? • Will these illegal activities continue if legal action is not taken? • Does the property have a reputation as a place to frequent for one or more of these illegal activities? • Have the lives or businesses of people in the area surrounding the property suffered or been adversely affected by these illegal activities?
