What is the Purpose of Code Violation and Information?


What is the purpose of Code Violations and Information? It means Department of Permits, Licenses, and Inspections, and Code Enforcement Division monitors and ensures compliance with various city codes and ordinances. This includes overgrown lots or yards, inoperable or abandoned vehicles on private property, maintenance of structures, illegal signs, and anything else that may affect the quality of life within the boundaries of the City.

It is through this Division that the City is able to ward off neighborhood blight and thus protect the property values, and health, safety, and welfare of the various neighborhoods throughout the City.

The Code Enforcement Division responds to concerns about violations from citizens, other City Departments, and outside agencies. Systematic inspections are also performed throughout the City in an effort to keep developing situations from becoming worse.
