• Code Enforcement Officer I: $4,767.69-$6,389.16
• Code Enforcement Officer II: $5,256.37-$7,044.04

Under general supervision, the Code Enforcement Officer I/II will perform residential, commercial and industrial site inspections and investigations to determine compliance with applicable federal, state and local codes, laws and regulations; performs other related duties as required.

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS

The Code Enforcement Officer I
The Code Enforcement Officer I is the entry level class in the code enforcement series that allows the incumbent to develop journey level knowledge and abilities. Initially, under immediate supervision, incumbents perform the more routine and less complex code enforcement assignments while learning City policies and procedures. As experience is gained, there is greater independence of action within established guidelines. This classification is alternatively staffed with Code Enforcement II and incumbents may advance to the higher level after gaining experience and demonstrating a level of proficiency that meets the qualifications of the higher-level class.

The Code Enforcement Officer II
The Code Enforcement Officer II is the journey level class in which incumbents are expected to independently perform the full scope of assigned duties. Incumbents are responsible for performing the full range of inspection and code enforcement responsibilities involving codes and regulations in a broad range of areas, including zoning, building, fire, health and safety. The work requires independence and discretion in working with the public and in conducting field inspections and involves a proactive implementation of applicable codes and regulations. This classification is distinguished from the Building Inspector class by the performance of duties primarily related to zoning and code violations.

SUPERVISION RECEIVED/EXERCISED

The Code Enforcement Officer I
The Code Enforcement Officer I receives immediate supervision from the City Attorney. Incumbents of this classification do not routinely exercise supervision.
