Why It Matters
SB 60 DID NOT END ATLANTIC BEACH COMPLAINTS

Compliant filing. Our name on the paper.
See something. File it without becoming the file.
FAQS
Who handles code enforcement in Atlantic Beach?
The City of Atlantic Beach Code Enforcement Division, part of the Neighborhoods Department. Call (904) 247-5855. Online, use Citizen Request Tracker. Email: codes@coab.us.
Is Atlantic Beach part of Jacksonville code enforcement?
No. Atlantic Beach kept its own government when Jacksonville and Duval consolidated, so it handles its own code complaints. The rest of Duval goes to Jacksonville’s Municipal Code Compliance Division.
Can I rent my Atlantic Beach home as a short-term rental?
No. Renting residential property for fewer than 90 consecutive days is prohibited in all residential zones, and violations are enforced by the Code Enforcement Division; report them to codes@coab.us.
Can I report a code violation in Atlantic Beach anonymously?
Not to the city. Since July 2021, Florida law requires a complainant’s name and address before most code investigations. SNITCH is not anonymous either: we file under our own name as complainant of record, so yours stays off the complaint.
What happens if a violation is not fixed?
Unresolved Atlantic Beach code cases go before a Special Magistrate. Hearings are held in the Commission Chamber, 800 Seminole Road, in January, March, May, July, September and November.
Is my name on the complaint? What if a desk will not take an agent filing? Our FAQs answer both.
