Code Compliance’s objective is to educate the citizens and obtain voluntary compliance with City Ordinance. When necessary, several enforcement options available to the Code Officers are:
Notice of Violation
When code compliance officers deem necessary, a written warning known as a Notice of Violation (NOV) may be issued for a substantiated code violation. A NOV provides specific information about the violation and sets a number of days within which the violation must be corrected.
