What happens if I have a violation?

Once a violation has been observed, it is the intent of Code Enforcement to have the resident/property owner come into voluntary compliance. To accomplish this, the resident/property owner normally is given 5-10 days to take whatever action is requested to correct the problem. The inspector does have the choice of requesting correction in fewer days. An example of a quicker correction period would be a vehicle parking on and blocking the public sidewalk. There may be a request to correct the violation within 24 hours.
