The City of Coweta Code Enforcement Department seeks the correction of public nuisances through City Ordinances and State Statutes to protect the community's health, safety, and welfare.
Common issues the City Code Enforcement Department addresses include:
Lawns exceeding 12" in height
Trash and debris presenting a pest, public health, or fire hazard
Vacant buildings in danger of collapse, that are unsecured and/or abandoned, or a nuisance to the surrounding community
Vehicles parked in open view that are non-operational or cannot be driven legally
Crowded or obstructed streets and sidewalks that impact public use
Stagnant water
Swimming pools that lack required safety features
Abandoned or discarded appliances
Excessive, hazardous, or noxious fumes rendering a property uncomfortable for its occupants
Many public nuisances are corrected informally within a few days.
Most abatement cases are resolved in two to three weeks. This timing provides property owners with proper notice and time to make corrections on their own.
Abatements involving dilapidated buildings have different notice and process requirements.
Code Enforcement will be working to ensure the City of Coweta is a place where people want to live.
