Showing ordinances that apply to Hillsboro Pines, FL
Hillsboro Pines is an unincorporated community (population 496) in Broward County, Florida. Because Hillsboro Pines is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Broward County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The property blight rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Broward County and cities enforce property maintenance codes against blight including overgrown vegetation, junk accumulation, and structural disrepair, with liens placed for unpaid fines.
Broward County Code Chapter 39 and municipal property maintenance codes prohibit blight conditions including overgrown grass and weeds exceeding 12 inches, accumulated junk, debris, inoperable vehicles, broken windows, peeling paint, damaged roofs, and structurally unsound buildings. Code enforcement officers investigate complaints and conduct proactive inspections, issuing violation notices with 10-30 day cure periods. Uncorrected violations proceed to special magistrate hearings with fines of $100-500 per day, up to $1,000 daily for repeat violations. Unpaid fines become liens against the property under FL Statute 162, and the county or city may enter properties to abate nuisances and charge costs back to owners. Chronic nuisance properties may face receivership actions.
