The Zoning Administrator and/or Code Enforcement Officer are charged with the enforcement of the Zoning Code under both State and local authority, and other related ordinances. Whenever the department receives a written, signed complaint alleging a violation of the ordinance, the Code Enforcement Officer will investigate and may serve upon the violator a Notice of Violation outlining remedies and/or penalties for the offense. Violations may also be noted through regular inspection of all properties within the City by the Code Enforcement Officer, and citations will be duly issued.
Zoning regulates land uses within the City. Each parcel in the City is assigned to a zone which describes the regulations under which that land may be used. The Zoning Code identifies allowable uses and sets standards such as minimum lot size, and minimum front yard depth.
