St. Lucie County offers amnesty for outstanding property code violations until June 30
St. Lucie County’s Code Regulation and Construction Division is offering its Code Lien Amnesty Program from now until June 30.
This is an incentive for all property owners in the unincorporated area with liens on their property due to outstanding code violations.
Any owner of residential or commercial property (outside city limits) with an outstanding code compliance lien who brings their property into compliance with St. Lucie County Codes and Ordinances will have their lien reduced by 90 percent.
St. Lucie County’s goal is to achieve compliance and improve the aesthetics, health, and safety of our community.
To be eligible for the Lien Amnesty Program, the property subject to the lien must not have any active code compliance violations.
All properties will be inspected to confirm there are no code violations.
Following an approved inspection, the reduced lien (only 10 percent of the original lien) must be paid within 30 days.
This is the eighth year St. Lucie County has offered the Lien Amnesty Program, helping over 200 property owners.
Properties with outstanding code liens receive information about this program by mail, along with applications.
However, residents can apply online at www.stlucieco.gov/amnesty.
For more details, contact St. Lucie County Code Compliance staff at 772-462-1571.
