West Palm Beach code enforcement complaints
City desk. Not Palm Beach County.
Inside city limits, West Palm Beach code complaints go to the City’s Code Enforcement Division in Housing & Community Development.
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 West Palm Beach Code Enforcement under our name.
Fear of Retaliation
West Palm Beach puts it this way: “No, anonymous code violation reports are not accepted.” File it yourself and that record is public under Chapter 119.
Who Handles It
Inside West Palm Beach: West Palm Beach Code Enforcement. Unincorporated Palm Beach: Palm Beach County Code Compliance 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 West Palm Beach code, including Chapter 26, Code Enforcement. Hearsay, neighbor wars, and junk filings do not go out. A false complaint is on the client.
Issues West Palm Beach highlights: parking on grass or unpaved surfaces, boats and RVs screened on three sides, chronic nuisance properties, and illegal dwelling units.
FL SB 60
Why It Matters
SB 60 DID NOT END WEST PALM BEACH COMPLAINTS
Florida law requires a name and address before most code investigations start. File direct with West Palm Beach Code Enforcement 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 West Palm Beach?
The City of West Palm Beach Code Enforcement Division, part of Housing & Community Development. Call (561) 822-1465. Online, use WPBKEY.
Is my address West Palm Beach or Palm Beach County?
West Palm Beach handles addresses inside its city limits. Unincorporated Palm Beach goes to Palm Beach County Code Compliance Division at (561) 233-5500. A West Palm Beach mailing address is not always inside the city.
How do I look up a West Palm Beach code violation?
Use eGovPlus (Permit/Case Status) on the City’s website.
Is it against code to park a car on the lawn in West Palm Beach?
Yes. Parking on unpaved surfaces on residential property violates City Code Sec. 86-240, and all licensed automobiles must be parked on an approved driveway or paved surface.
Can I report a code violation in West Palm Beach anonymously?
Not to the city. West Palm Beach says: “No, anonymous code violation reports are not accepted.” 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 West Palm Beach code cases go before a Special Magistrate. Notices of violation list a Special Magistrate hearing date, and owners may ask for more time to comply at that hearing.
Is my name on the complaint? What if a desk will not take an agent filing? Our FAQs answer both.
