Code Violations

Reporting Possible City Code Violations

  • Report code violations 24-hours a day to the Community Development Department at (818) 898-1227. Staff members are available to take your calls during normal City Hall hours of operation, or a voice message may be left after hours. You may report violations anonymously and all reports are handled confidentially.
  • Please make sure to include the location and a description of the violation. If you would like a call back, please leave your name and telephone number.
  • The Division's goal is to conduct an initial inspection within one working day of receipt of your call. However, if the code violation creates a potential emergency, please contact the San Fernando Police Department at (818) 898-1267.

A documented City Code violation can result in a warning, notice of compliance, fine, and even legal action.
