Purpose

The goal of the Village of Monroe Code Enforcement Department is to ensure a safe and desirable living and working environment, thereby protecting the health, property and quality of life for all Village of Monroe residents by fairly and impartially enforcing codes and other ordinances in the Village of Monroe.

The Village of Monroe Code uses a proactive approach to combating code, housing, and fire safety issues. Based on zoning regulations, code enforcement, and fire inspections as well as feedback from residents, reports will be investigated by a Code Enforcement Team.

The Code Enforcement Team includes Building & Assistant Building Inspectors, Fire Inspectors, and Code Enforcement officers that will address code compliance, health, and safety issues to strive to enhance the Village of Monroe’s position as a premier place to live, work, and raise a family.

Remedies may include warning notices, violation notices, and corrective action steps including court appearances along with substantial fines for offending property owners.
