Empire Building: Modesto looks to prosecute minor drug offenses after DA’s office stops handling them

Modesto might prosecute low-level drug offenses no longer being pursued by the Stanislaus County District Attorney’s Office and expand its prosecution of such city code violations as camping in parks, blighted property and illegal dumping.

City Attorney Adam Lindgren and City Manager Joe Lopez discussed this proposal during Monday’s City Council workshop for Modesto’s proposed 2019-20 budget year, which starts July 1.
