Pinellas County code enforcement complaints
County desk or city desk. We sort it.
Unincorporated Pinellas goes to Pinellas County Code Enforcement Division. Inside its 24 cities and towns, the local government’s own code office takes the complaint.
SNITCH is a private filing service, not the County. We file as complainant of record. Your name stays off the complaint.
Compliant with Florida SB 60.
Filed with the Pinellas desk that owns the address, under our name.
Fear of Retaliation
File direct with Pinellas County Code Enforcement Division and Florida law puts your name and address on the complaint. That record is public under Chapter 119.
Who Handles It
Unincorporated Pinellas: Pinellas County Code Enforcement Division. Inside city limits: that city’s code office, including Clearwater, Dunedin, Largo, Pinellas Park, and St. Petersburg. The address decides.
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.
County or city code. Not a grudge.
Every submission is checked against the Pinellas County code, including Chapter 58, Environment, or the city code when a city owns the address. Hearsay, neighbor wars, and junk filings do not go out. A false complaint is on the client.
Issues Pinellas County highlights: commercial vehicles in residential areas, inoperative vehicles, minimum housing standards, and noise control.
FL SB 60
Why It Matters
SB 60 DID NOT END PINELLAS COMPLAINTS
Florida law requires a name and address before most code investigations start, at the county and in every Pinellas city. File direct 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.
