Miami Gardens code enforcement complaints
City desk. Not Miami-Dade County.
Inside city limits, Miami Gardens code complaints go to the City’s Code Enforcement & Business Licensing Department.
SNITCH is a private filing service, not the City. We file as complainant of record. Your name stays off the complaint.
Compliant with Florida SB 60.
Filed with Miami Gardens Code Enforcement & Business Licensing under our name.
Fear of Retaliation
Miami Gardens puts it this way: “Based on changes in state statute, anonymous complaints are no longer allowed.” File it yourself and that record is public under Chapter 119.
Who Handles It
Inside Miami Gardens: Miami Gardens Code Enforcement & Business Licensing. Unincorporated Miami-Dade: Miami-Dade County Neighborhood Regulations Division. Other cities run their own desks.
Agent Filing Rules
We file under our name with the desk that owns the address. If that shop bounces a third-party complainant, that filing does not sit there.
How It Works
"SNITCH cuts through red tape—handling your code complaints professionally, safely, and always in compliance with Florida law.
- Chaz Stevens, Chief Snitch
We file the real ones.
We reject the rest.
City code. Not a grudge.
Every submission is checked against the Miami Gardens code, including Chapter 8, Code Enforcement. Hearsay, neighbor wars, and junk filings do not go out. A false complaint is on the client.
Issues Miami Gardens highlights: annual landlord permit for residential rentals, short-term rental registration, re-occupancy certificates, and Local Business Tax Receipt and Certificate of Use.
FL SB 60
Why It Matters
SB 60 DID NOT END MIAMI GARDENS COMPLAINTS
Florida law requires a name and address before most code investigations start. File direct with Miami Gardens Code Enforcement & Business Licensing and that name is public. SNITCH files as complainant of record.
Compliant filing. Our name on the paper.
See something. File it without becoming the file.
