If you have a violation, you will receive a letter detailing the code violations found on your property. Make sure to read the entire letter because it will contain important information such as:
When you first receive your letter or notice of a violation, it is best to let your inspector know of any circumstances that would make it difficult for you to bring your property up to code.
Extensions may be granted in some circumstances, but keep in mind, early and often communication with your inspector is the first step. Contact your inspector as soon as possible if you are having trouble fixing the violation in time for your next inspection date. Find their contact info in the letter you received. You can always call (913) 573-8600 for help.
Complaints are received from community members, neighborhood groups, the police department and UG staff. If you choose to make a complaint, Property Maintenance Compliance will not reveal your information to anyone.
To keep yourself updated with the status of any reported violation; you can enter the address of the location where the violation occurred on the Citizen Access website. This website provides current information about code enforcement complaints, building inspections, permits and other related matters.
The amount of time given to address the problem depends on the type of violation. The deadline to fix the issue can be as little as 24 hours, 2 weeks, or up to a month.
