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.
Administrative citations range from $100 to $500 per violation per day. Chronic violations may result in property liens, abatement at the owner's expense, or criminal prosecution as misdemeanors under County Code §11.0204.
