DeKalb County will train resident volunteers to help identify and report code violations in a two-hour class that begins at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Maloof Auditorium in downtown Decatur.

Volunteers are needed to help because the county has just 25 code enforcement officers in the field to serve about 700,000 residents.
