Code Enforcement
Code Enforcement is an integral part of a safe and prosperous community. Westover’s code enforcement officers support and enhance quality of life by upholding ordinances that support safe living and working conditions across our community.
Westover citizens have a right to a safe and secure place to live, work, and raise families. When individuals or corporations violate these rights, action must be taken. This is why code enforcement exists.
We promote and safeguard our community with the goal of ensuring a safe environment for the citizens to work and play. We take this responsibly seriously. Our community is important to us and we’re here to help.
To assist you, below is a series of packets to help navigate Westover code requirements. Each packet begins with a list of items required for meeting various codes followed by submittal forms.
Should you have questions or need support of any kind, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Remember, we’re here to help you.
