For Property Managers

Under Blaine Code of Ordinances ch. 46 § 46-31, the building official is the designated authority who oversees compliance with this chapter.

For Tenants

Blaine Code of Ordinances ch. 46 § 46-31 identifies the building official as the officer responsible for enforcing this chapter, which means tenants who believe a violation has occurred have a designated point of contact within the city. Raising a concern with the building official's office is one general path available when conditions may not meet the chapter's standards. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Blaine's local ordinances can help residents understand what options may be available in a given situation.
