Tenant Complaint Process
A Broome County tenant, lessee or occupant who alleges a Uniform Code violation can request a building inspection at no charge, per Code § 210-7(D). The county otherwise does not run routine inspections of occupied dwelling units, so a complaint-triggered inspection under § 210-4A(2) is often the only route to a code check inside a rented unit.
