Code Enforcement

Code enforcement works to ensure property maintenance and nuisance codes are properly enforced.  These codes are concerned with the ongoing health, safety, maintenance, and occupancy of existing structures and properties. The development and implementation of a property maintenance program reflects Eldred's commitment to the safety, healthfulness, quality, and presentation of the community. In general, the Property Maintenance codes cover:

  • Property littered with trash or debris
  • Illegal dumping
  • Tall grass or weeds in excess of 8 inches in height
  • Inoperable, abandoned, or unregistered vehicles and those with expired tags
  • Parking on unimproved surfaces
  • Outdoor storage of equipment or appliances
  • Excessive animal waste
  • Deteriorated buildings
  • Dead animals and garbage
  • Flooding, pool, and pond maintenance
  • Infestation
