Code Enforcement Reporting

Why We Have Code Enforcement

City ordinances are designed to protect the health and safety of the citizens and visitors of Clearfield City.

The ordinances include weeds or noxious vegetation, waste, litter, garbage or filth of any nature accumulating upon any real property within Clearfield City limits. The Code Enforcement Division also is responsible to look for abandoned vehicles (which by definition is any vehicle that is not currently registered/inspected or non-operational), and clear vision (which includes the pruning of trees and vegetation which may obstruct the view of sidewalks, intersections, signs and driveways). Here are some important things to know about the Code Enforcement standards when living in Clearfield City.
