The Town of Plymouth’s code enforcement officer is a sworn-in inspector and investigator that specializes in the prevention, detection, and enforcement of violations of property and building violations. The officer ensures that businesses and people are in compliance with public health, safety, business activities, building standards, and more.
The department’s first action is a written notice of violation, allowing a reasonable amount of time to make corrections before a violation is issued. Every single complaint is investigated whether driving past the location in question or making personal contact, a record is kept of the investigation, and the investigation’s outcome is documented to ensure all items are inspected and ordinances are enforced.
Most Common Violations are (but not limited to):
- Grass
- Junk Cars
- Abandoned Houses
- Temporary Signs
- Minimum Housing Code Issues
- Sewer Waste
- Noise
- Property Maintenance
- Zoning Compliance
- Animal Complaints
