Clark County Title 11 (Abatement of Nuisances) prohibits property blight including junk accumulation, dead landscaping, graffiti, broken structures, and inoperable vehicles. The Code Enforcement Public Response Office investigates complaints and can abate properties at owner expense.
Clark County Code Title 11 (Abatement of Nuisances) is the primary property blight ordinance for unincorporated Clark County. It prohibits conditions that materially reduce neighborhood quality or property values or create health and safety hazards. Violations include: accumulated junk, trash, debris, or discarded materials visible from public view; unmaintained structures with peeling paint, broken windows, damaged roofs, or exposed framing; graffiti left unremediated; overgrown weeds and dead vegetation; inoperable, unregistered, or dismantled vehicles stored outdoors; junk yards and illegal outdoor storage; illegal dumping; unsafe buildings; and attractive nuisances such as unsecured pools. In the desert climate, dead palm fronds, dried weeds, and dust from neglected vacant lots are frequent concerns. The enforcement process typically starts with a neighbor complaint or proactive inspection, followed by a Notice of Violation with a compliance deadline (often 10 to 30 days). Failure to comply escalates to administrative citations, civil penalties, and potentially county-performed abatement — with the costs assessed as a lien on the property per Title 11 provisions. Graffiti is addressed under specific Title 11 sections requiring timely removal. Vacant and bank-owned properties are a significant blight source in some unincorporated neighborhoods, and Clark County maintains vacant property registration programs in some areas. Report complaints to Code Enforcement at (702) 455-4191 or the online portal.
Penalties scale with violation severity and repeat history. Initial administrative citations commonly begin at around 100 dollars. Unresolved violations can lead to civil penalties, abatement at owner expense as a property lien, and in severe or repeated cases criminal prosecution in Clark County Justice Court.
