Code Enforcement

The City of Florence is actively working to keep our city clean and safe. Code Enforcement works towards enforcing municipal ordinances and codes regarding any and all property within the city's limits. The goal of Code Enforcement remains not to cite, or fine property owners in violation, but to work with the property’s owner to bring them into compliance. Our Code Enforcement strives to work with the community and help ensure progress is made.

We appreciate your help in keeping Florence clean and safe for all to enjoy!
