Code Enforcement refers to the process of ensuring compliance with local laws and regulations related to property maintenance, safety, and zoning. This includes inspecting buildings and properties to verify that they meet established standards, such as those for sanitation, structural integrity, and land use. When violations are found, Code Enforcement officers may issue warnings or citations to property owners, requiring them to make necessary repairs or changes. The goal is to promote public safety, enhance community aesthetics, and protect property values by addressing issues like overcrowding, unsafe structures, and nuisance properties.
