Most Common Blight Violations

Jul 07, 2003

Keeping neighborhoods free of blight and deterioration is an important part of maintaining their physical, social and economic health. Neighborhood Preservation inspectors who respond to a report of a blighted property look for eight conditions at that property and on properties in the immediate area.

Here are a couple:
☺...Junk, litter and debris: Junk, litter and debris cannot be left in the yard. They must be disposed of properly. This includes junk auto parts, appliances, furniture, building and/or landscaping material and tires; litter such as discarded paper, cardboard, plastics, etc.; debris such as tree trimmings and fallen tree limbs; or any other items that have been discarded.

☺...Fences in disrepair: Fencing and screening walls must be sound and made from the same materials. They also must be weather-tight and free from deterioration and blight. Fences in residential zones cannot be higher than three feet in the required front yard and six feet in the required rear yard...☺
