Code Compliance

A Building and Zoning Inspector is responsible for enforcing the Tulare County Ordinance Code to all county land. Code Compliance will take in complaints and perform inspections/investigations involving violations against the Tulare County Ordinance Codes. Code Compliance Inspectors will attend and speak at community meetings to educate the community of our focus and mission.

Abandoned Vehicle Abatement

The Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program (AVA) was implemented by the State Legislature under Sections 22660-22664 of the Vehicle Code of California to remove abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperable vehicles or parts thereof, from private and public property as nuisances. These nuisances must not be visible from the street or any other public or private property. Exceptions to the legislation are such that a vehicle may be completely enclosed within a building, in a lawful manner. A vehicle may also be stored or parked, in a lawful manner, on private property in connection with the business of a licensed dismantler, licensed vehicle dealer, or a junk yard.

Dairy Monitoring Program

Send out Annual Compliance Reports to all dairies in Tulare County by September of each year. Reports are due back to the Dairy Monitoring Program by December 31st of the same year. Once received, each report is entered into a database and eventually compiled into one report.
Compliance inspections are to be conducted on at least 20 percent of dairies each year. Priority is given to inspecting those dairies that did not submit Annual Compliance Reports and to those dairies which exceed their permitted or grandfathered animal density.
