Existing Structure Exterior Property Enforcement Process

Once we receive a complaint/concern, the inspector will inspect the property generally within two (2) business days.
If the property is found to be in violation, the inspector will take photos of the violation(s) and send a Notice of Violation letter to the owner of record giving them a minimum of ten (10) days to correct the violation.
The inspector will re-inspect the property periodically.
If the property remains in violation, an enforcement action is taken by the Building Commission.
Enforcement actions typically include fines and public hearings ordering the correction or demolition of the property.
