Once you file a concern, here's what happens:

1. After receiving a concern of a possible code violation, a case is created and directed to a Code Enforcement Officer for inspection.
2. Within 30 days, the assigned Code Compliance Officer inspects and/or investigates the concern to see if an ordinance or regulation is being violated. If the concern involves another city department, it is referred to them for investigation. If no violation is found, the case is closed.
3. If a violation is confirmed, a 1st Notice of Violation is served or mailed to the responsible person(s), giving a specific time frame for compliance.
4. After that period for compliance has expired, a re-inspection is conducted. If the violation(s) is/are corrected, the case is closed. If the violation(s) is/are not corrected, further enforcement action is taken, such as 2nd Notice, and Final Notice, which may include the issuance of a written citation. Administrative Citation fines can range from $100 to $500 per violation. Continued violations can result in multiple citations and/or be subject to Notice of Pendency Lien.
