CODE ENFORCEMENT
The Code Enforcement Department addresses complaints from citizens concerning public nuisances such as: Junk vehicles, abandoned vehicles, high grass, trash, minimum housing code violations and other public nuisances within the city limits.
Junk Vehicles
Junk vehicle is a vehicle, which does not have a current license tag, is partially dismantled or wrecked, or cannot move on its own. Each property may have one junk vehicle in the rear yard that is concealed from view for not more than 30 days. If a property has more than one junk vehicle, the additional junk vehicles must be in a garage.
High Grass
Grass or weeds in excess of 15 inches tall are not permitted. Rodents and pests often use high grass as a place to live and feed. Please help protect the health and safety of your neighborhood by keeping your grass mowed.
Outdoor Storage
Store items in the rear yard only. Make sure outdoor storage items are screened from view of the street by placing items behind fences or inside storage buildings. Outdoor storage includes boats and trailers, so the same guidelines apply to these items, as well. Permits are required for storage buildings and carports.
