Palm Beach County Code Compliance handles violations in unincorporated areas. Complaints can be filed by phone at 561-233-5500, in person at the PZB office at 2300 N. Jog Road in West Palm Beach, or through the county website.
The Palm Beach County Planning, Zoning and Building Department (PZB) Code Compliance Division handles code violations in unincorporated Palm Beach County. Complaints can be filed by phone at 561-233-5500 or in person at 2300 N. Jog Road, 2nd floor, West Palm Beach, FL 33411, during business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM). The division investigates violations of building codes, zoning regulations, property maintenance standards, and land development code provisions. When a complaint is filed, an inspector is assigned to investigate the property. If a violation is confirmed, the property owner receives a notice with a specific timeframe for correction. The division can also search for existing open violations, open building permits, and fines/liens on properties in unincorporated Palm Beach County through its online search service. Properties within incorporated municipalities (such as West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, or Delray Beach) must file complaints with those cities' respective code enforcement departments.
Non-compliance with violation notices can result in the case being brought before the Palm Beach County Code Enforcement Board or Special Magistrate. Daily fines can be imposed, and unpaid fines become liens on the property. Repeat or willful violations face increased penalties.
