Nuisance Property Program In cooperation with the District of Columbia Government and members of the community, the U.S. Attorney’s Office has aggressively identified nuisance properties, both residential and commercial, which create an environment that promotes crime and violence in our neighborhoods. Such properties are used for numerous illegal activities, including drug trafficking, robbery, prostitution and public drinking. Where appropriate, our office has brought civil actions against the owners of these properties. Settlements have been negotiated with property owners resulting in additional safety measures for neighbors and residents including: additional lighting fencing security cameras uniformed guards Other property owners have simply ceased operations. These actions help reduce crime on our streets and improve the quality of life in neighborhoods.    Nuisance Property Success Stories The U.S. Attorney’s Office and our partners in the Nuisance Property Program have successfully abated a number of nuisance properties across the City.
