Code Enforcement

Compliance through Community Cooperation

The function of the Code Enforcement Division of the City of Marietta is to preserve and enforce the general welfare, safety, and sanitary standards for its citizens, neighborhoods, and guests. Marietta is known locally and nationally for its ambiance, quality of life, and cleanliness.

To maintain what is loved and cherished by Mariettan's and visitors, the Code Enforcement Division enforces the Signs, Historic District, Standard Housing Code, Building Code, and the City's Zoning Regulations as it applies to the International Code Council (ICC).

Jurisdictional vs. Non-Jurisdictional Areas

Having a Marietta mailing address doesn't necessarily place you within the city limits of Marietta. To make a complaint to the city of Marietta's Code Enforcement Division, it is necessary to determine if the alleged violation is within the city's jurisdiction or not. The city's online tool, MyMarietta, can help determine if a property is inside the city.

The Code Enforcement Department is only able to investigate complaints that are inside the city limits of Marietta. To report complaints that are outside of Marietta's jurisdiction, you must contact that particular jurisdictional government agency where the alleged violation occurred.
