All property owners and occupants are responsible for maintaining their properties in accordance with certain standards. These standards are designed to protect the environment and maintain the appearance and property values within our city.

The Code Compliance Division is responsible for assuring that all existing residential and non-residential structures and all existing premises maintain minimum requirements and standards as set forth by the International Property Maintenance Code as adopted by the City Council.

Please watch out for fraudulent emails targeting residents and businesses with planning-related applications, including zoning cases, variance requests, and special administrative permits. We've seen scammers posing as City staff send fake invoices and request payment by electronic wire transfer—a major red flag, as the City never uses wire transfers for these matters. Other warning signs include messages claiming to be from the Planning Commission (which does not send direct correspondence), misspellings, and email addresses ending in “usa.com,” which are not valid City domains. Do not open attachments or send any funds. If you receive a suspicious message or have questions, please call 678-382-6757.
