Code Enforcement

The City of New Brighton's strong commitment to maintaining and improving the health, safety and welfare of our community is apparent! It is important that all residents take responsibility for the care and maintenance of their property. Unsightly yards, homes in disrepair, junked vehicles, piled-up tires and overgrown vegetation on your property not only looks bad, but these type of nuisances can also attract rodents and pests and may reduce property values.
