Code Compliance

October is National Code Compliance Month

Each October, communities across the country recognize National Code Compliance Month - a time to highlight the important role that local code compliance programs play in keeping neighborhoods safe, healthy, and well-maintained.

 

Here in White Salmon, the Code Compliance program works collaboratively with residents, businesses, and community partners to protect public safety, preserve property values, and enhance quality of life. From addressing nuisances and overgrown vegetation to supporting wildfire prevention and neighborhood cleanup efforts, code compliance is about community care in action.

 

We offer community members information about how local codes support a clean, safe, and resilient White Salmon - and how everyone can take part in maintaining the safety and character of our city.
