DEPARTMENT PURPOSE AND GOALS

The mission of the Code Compliance Department is to preserve and enhance public health, welfare and safety
through services that focus on education, preservation, compliance, and community partnerships. This mission is
accomplished through three divisions: Administration, Code Enforcement, and Animal Care and Control.

The Administration Division provides support to the operating divisions and consolidates departmental accounting,
budgeting, purchasing, training, and human resource functions.

The Code Enforcement Division includes the Building Standards and Neighborhood Investigations Sections.
Building Standards investigates substandard housing issues, manages the multifamily registration and inspection
program and facilitates the activities of the Building Standards Commission. Neighborhood Investigations provide
neighborhood code enforcement, including investigating citizen complaints specific to trash and debris, junk
vehicles, zoning, high grass and weeds and other property maintenance issues.

The Animal Care and Control Division provides services in the field for stray animals, dangerous or injured wildlife,
animal cruelty complaints, and bite investigations. The Division also provides care and a safe environment for
sheltered animals, promoting animal adoptions at two shelters, two satellite adoption centers and numerous
offsite adoption events. Additionally, the Division operates a medical treatment ward, which includes a spay/neuter
clinic, at each of the two shelters. Animal Care and Control relies heavily on volunteer support, private donations
and partnerships with adoption programs.
