As a tenant, or as a property-owner, there are certain expectations as to the conditions of a rental property. The codes and ordinances implemented by the City of Arlington are to help protect tenants and contribute to a thriving community. Code Compliance officers enforce the ordinances in a fair and impartial manner. There are times however, when renters or property owners have concerns that may not be covered by the codes and ordinances and must be handled as a civil manner between the tenant and landlord.
