Irving Code Enforcement investigates complaints by 5 PM the next business day. Officers work Monday-Friday from 8 AM. Emergency situations are handled by Irving PD.
Irving Code Enforcement commits to investigating complaints no later than 5 PM the following business day after the complaint is received. Officers work Monday through Friday starting at 8 AM. Code Enforcement makes every effort to investigate all complaints. However, anonymous complaints or complaints from non-residents of the affected units may be more difficult to document and pursue formal enforcement. After investigation, if a violation is found, the property owner receives a notice of violation with a deadline to correct the issue. Follow-up inspections verify compliance. Emergency situations such as imminent structural collapse, fire hazards, or utility failures should be reported to 911 or Irving PD at (972) 273-1010 rather than waiting for Code Enforcement.
Non-compliance after notice leads to citations, fines, and potential abatement by the city.
