Code Enforcement is a service provided by the County to protect and improve the health, safety, and quality of life of its residents, businesses, and visitors.
The Code Enforcement Division works to eliminate blight, protect property values, lower crime, encourage pride and build a sense of community, and support economic development through education, outreach, and enforcement of the County’s standards for property maintenance, signs, zoning, land use, and business regulations.
Common code violations include junk vehicles, open or outdoor storage (including trash and debris), tall grass and weeds, exterior building and fence/wall maintenance, graffiti, vehicle parking, operating businesses in incorrect zoning districts, and running a business without an occupation tax certificate.
Code Enforcement inspects properties within unincorporated Gwinnett County and does not address code violations within city limits.
For properties located within a city limit, please contact that city.
