How do I report a code violation?
  • Call 407-877-5136 or 407-656-4111 
  • Visit the Community Development Department in downtown City Hall (300 W. Plant Street), open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday
  • As of July 1st, 2021, Florida law prohibits code inspectors from starting an investigation for potential codes or ordinance violations based on an anonymous complaint. The law now requires persons reporting potential violations to provide contact information before an investigation can begin.  Please be sure to provide your name and address when filing a complaint with Code Compliance.
