Each year the Code Enforcement Division responds to hundreds of complaints. There is no fee to file a complaint. We accept anonymous complaints, but please be sure to provide the correct information regarding the location and a description of the potential violation. Please note that if the information is incorrect, insufficient, or missing important information the Code Enforcement Officer will not investigate your complaint. If your email or phone number is provided the Code Enforcement Officer will notify you of the incomplete application.
