Absent an ordinance, the council may by resolution authorize an injunctive suit in district court.  See 50 Okla. Stat. Section 17.

We have a resident who owns their property but has essentially constructed a shanty without sewer or water on the property. We have an ordinance that requires both and includes a daily fine. We do not have a code enforcement officer. Any suggestions on how we enforce the ordinance? The surrounding residents are frantic, as they should be.

Can the county sheriff do it? We do not have a city police force.
