Property Maintenance is Important
It is to our community’s benefit to keep all properties properly maintained and to encourage and assist our neighbors who may be struggling to do the same. A property that is not well maintained impacts property values and has a negative effect on quality of life for surrounding neighbors.
A summary of common property maintenance violations are provided. The information highlights key maintenance issues, for a complete copy of current ordinances, please reference the Dacono Municipal Code.
