Winter Park code enforcement complaints
City desk. Not Orange County.
Inside city limits, Winter Park code complaints go to the City’s Safety & Code Compliance in Building & Permitting Services.
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 Winter Park Safety & Code Compliance under our name.
Fear of Retaliation
Winter Park puts it this way: “The law prohibits code compliance from investigating a potential violation by way of an anonymous complaint unless the complaint involves an imminent threat to health or safety.” File it yourself and that record is public under Chapter 119.
Who Handles It
Inside Winter Park: Winter Park Safety & Code Compliance. Unincorporated Orange: Orange County Code Compliance. 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.
"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 Winter Park code, including Chapter 22, Article V, Property and Building Maintenance. Hearsay, neighbor wars, and junk filings do not go out. A false complaint is on the client.
Issues Winter Park highlights: short-term rentals under one month prohibited, boats, trailers and RVs limited to 24 hours per week in view, no front-yard parking, and garbage containers out of sight by 9 p.m. on collection day.
FL SB 60
Why It Matters
SB 60 DID NOT END WINTER PARK COMPLAINTS
Florida law requires a name and address before most code investigations start. File direct with Winter Park Safety & Code Compliance 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.
FAQS
Who handles code enforcement in Winter Park?
The City of Winter Park Safety & Code Compliance, part of Building & Permitting Services. Call (407) 599-3600. Online, use @YourRequest. Email: codecompliance@cityofwinterpark.org.
Is my address Winter Park or Orange County?
Winter Park handles addresses inside its city limits. Unincorporated Orange goes to Orange County Code Compliance at 311 or (407) 836-3111. A Winter Park mailing address is not always inside the city.
Are short-term rentals allowed in Winter Park?
No. The city prohibits renting, using or occupying any residential dwelling for less than one month (Sec. 58-71(aa)).
Can I report a code violation in Winter Park anonymously?
Not to the city. Winter Park says: “The law prohibits code compliance from investigating a potential violation by way of an anonymous complaint unless the complaint involves an imminent threat to health or safety.” 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 Winter Park code cases go before the Code Enforcement Board. The Code Compliance Board meets the first Thursday of each month at 3 p.m. in City Hall Commission Chambers, 401 S. Park Ave.
Is my name on the complaint? What if a desk will not take an agent filing? Our FAQs answer both.
