Chamblee steps up code enforcement

By April Hunt
May 23, 2011

With the arrival of warmer weather, Chamblee’s code enforcement division will begin additional patrols to make sure yards are groomed and free of clutter.

The city’s property maintenance codes allow for one written warning and a notice to correct problems. Failure to make fixes results in a municipal citation. Repeat violators do not receive additional warnings.

More information: 770-986-5005 or code_enforcement@chambleepd.com.
