Code Violations
If you receive a Notice of Violation/Notice of Hearing, the City Code violation must be corrected in the time given. If not, the case is then heard at a Special Magistrate hearing to determine if there is, in fact, a violation of the City Code. If the violation is deemed to be valid, then a monetary fine is assessed against the property until the violations are corrected. The Code Compliance Division can be reached at (954) 597-3425.
