Environmental Court in Mecklenburg County
 
In recognition of the fact that dilapidated housing, trashy lots and stray animals often create a breeding ground for criminal activity, the 26th Judicial District partnered with the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County to create an Court dedicated solely to these issues. Environmental Court is conducted once a month by the Chief District Court judge where special emphasis is placed on problems related to housing, community health, solid waste, fire, building and zoning violations. The result is stricter adherence to environmental laws, which improves the quality of life for local affected communities.
