Victorville, CA Rental Inspections: Tenant Complaint Process (2026)

100 preserves the City's authority to inspect any Residential Rental Property in response to a complaint alleging a violation of Applicable Law, or to pursue any other available remedy, regardless of where the property sits in its scheduled license-inspection cycle. 090(a) requires the City Manager to have a Code Enforcement Officer issue a written notice of violation, in the form of the inspection report, mailed to the owner or the owner's Local Authorized Representative, and delivered to the tenant by mail, hand delivery, or by posting on the tenant's front door.

The notice must describe each violation with enough detail for the owner to identify and correct it, and the owner gets a minimum of fifteen days to correct the violation before being deemed in violation of Article 5. 100 and lets the Development Department suspend or revoke the property's Rental Business License if the owner fails to correct the cited violations. 090(c) makes a property that remains out of compliance after enforcement action a public nuisance, subject to the abatement procedures in Chapter 6, Article 4, which include vacate orders and, in the worst cases, demolition.
