• Public safety obstructions
• Illegal dumping of trash or personal belongings
• Inoperable motor vehicles
• Uncontrolled vegetation

When a problem is identified, the tenant or home owner is notified by mail. They are asked to correct the problem within 30 working days and re-inspections are conducted until the issue is resolved. If the violation is not corrected after 2 warnings, the issue is turned over to the City Prosecutor and finally to Municipal Court where fines could be levied.

If you see Graffiti in your neighborhood report it: Graffiti Hotline: (928) 329-2828 or via Yuma Click & Fix.

You may inquire about a possible violation or file a complaint about a code violation in person at our office, in writing, by email, or by phone. You do not have to identify yourself, however if you choose not to, we might not be able to respond to you with the results of the inquiry. Please be prepared with the following information:
