How Code Enforcement Operates
- When a complaint is received, it is logged and assigned to a Code Enforcement Officer.
- The assigned Officer investigates each complaint to determine if a violation exists.
- If evidence exists that a violation has occurred, the Officer will send a notice of violation to the responsible party.
- If the violation(s) is not properly abated and the violation(s) continues, further enforcement action will be taken.
