Code Enforcement
The City’s Code Enforcement Unit administers the chapters of the Monroe Municipal Code that address public health, public nuisance and safety issues. Code Enforcement investigates allegations that arise from complaints and works with property/business owners to remedy these conditions. As time allows, the Code Enforcement Officer tours neighborhoods to identify code enforcement violations with the goal of improving neighborhood aesthetics and livability.
When a complaint is filed, city staff investigate to verify whether the condition violates code. If so, the responsible individual is asked to take corrective measures to comply. If compliance is not met by the specified deadline, penalties and enforcement actions may begin as outlined in MMC Chapter 1.04.
You can file a code complaint concern/complaint online at Monroe Listens.
