Indiantown enforces nuisance and property-maintenance standards through the adopted Martin County Ch. 67 (Environmental Control) and the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) where applicable, with primary local jurisdiction under the Village's Code Compliance Division.
The Village's Code Compliance Division enforces property maintenance through the Transition Code, Martin County Code Ch. 67 (Environmental Control), and standards in the Indiantown LDR. Common violations include overgrown vegetation (Sec. 67.201.A - 18-inch limit), abandoned vehicles (Ch. 115 - 5-day limit), open storage of junk, dilapidated structures, broken windows, and stagnant water (mosquito breeding). Code Compliance officers conduct routine inspections, respond to complaints, and refer continuing violations to the Special Magistrate.

Continuing violations are heard at the Special Magistrate hearings (15516 SW Osceola St., Suite C). Civil fines under Fla. Stat. 162.09 commonly reach $250/day first offense and $500/day repeat. Liens may be recorded for unpaid fines and any abatement costs.
