The most common code violations in San Bernardino County include unpermitted construction, junk and debris accumulation, overgrown vegetation, inoperable vehicles, illegal cannabis cultivation, unpermitted short-term rentals, and zoning violations in unincorporated areas.
San Bernardino County Code Enforcement frequently addresses: unpermitted construction (building without a required permit or not to code), accumulation of junk, trash, and debris on residential properties, overgrown weeds and vegetation creating fire hazards (especially critical in wildfire-prone areas), inoperable or abandoned vehicles on residential property, illegal cannabis cultivation outside of permitted areas, illegal dumping particularly in desert areas of the county, unpermitted short-term vacation rentals, living in substandard or illegal dwelling units (converted garages, shipping containers), and sign code violations. The county's vast unincorporated territory and desert areas present unique enforcement challenges.
