The County of Riverside Code Enforcement Department investigates violations of county ordinances in unincorporated areas only — residents within incorporated cities must contact their city's code enforcement. Complaints can be filed by phone at (951) 955-2004 for the western county or (760) 393-3344 for the desert region, by email at celogin@rivco.org, or through the online complaint portal at ce.rctlma.org. The department operates a 24-hour call center 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays, ensuring reports can be filed at any time. Complainant information is kept confidential under the California Public Records Act, Government Code Section 6254(f). You do not need to provide your name to file a complaint, though providing contact information helps investigators follow up. Common issues handled include zoning violations, unpermitted construction, overgrown vegetation, abandoned vehicles, illegal dumping, and nuisance properties.
Code enforcement officers investigate reported violations and issue notices of violation with a compliance timeline. Failure to comply can result in administrative citations with fines starting at $100 for a first violation, $200 for a second, and $500 for subsequent violations per Riverside County Ordinance No. 725. Chronic violations may lead to abatement proceedings or liens on the property.
