Code Enforcement

Ensuring the city is home to neighborhoods everyone can be proud of and maintaining the city’s motto of a “Quality Community for a Lifetime” is a team effort. The Code Enforcement Division works with residents and property owners throughout the city each day to help meet that goal.

The goal of Code Enforcement is to maintain and improve the safety and appearance of private property in the city. Code Enforcement inspectors enforce the ordinances and regulations enacted by the City Council to address public nuisances, property maintenance, and zoning issues on private property that may be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community.
