If you have been notified by the Community Development Agency that a code violation exists on your property, be apprised that the County is not necessarily accusing you of intentionally breaking the law. Many of the code violation cases addressed by the Community Development Agency involve the simple lack of knowledge of a regulation and are resolved through voluntary efforts of the property owner. The County is, however, asking you to abide by the regulations which been applied to your particular community or the County as a whole in the interest of protecting the quality of life and the public health and welfare.
