Code Enforcement Cases- March 11, 2010

The Steuben County Plan Commission has submitted several code enforcement cases to the Plan Commission attorney for legal action. The Plan Commission's objective is always compliance; legal action is undertaken as a last resort.

However, if a property owner does not respond to requests to correct a violation, the Plan Commission must file with the courts. This process results in added costs and fines, above and beyond the costs of remediation, which the violator is required to pay. If the court issues an order, violation of that order can result in contempt of court charges.

The following cases have been submitted to the Steuben County Plan Commission attorney to prepare legal filings:
