Nuisance
Nuisance complaints regarding public health issues are
investigated on a priority basis.
Complaints that are not enforceable by this office may be referred to an
appropriate agency.
Complaints will not be investigated without the complainant
information including name and phone number.
This information is necessary so that the Health Inspector may contact
the complainant for further information.
Complainant information will not be made available unless required by
law in court action. A complainant may
call in to confirm the status of complaint investigation.
Following a complaint, our inspector will visit the site to
take pictures and observe any violations present on the property. If the property is in violation of any health
codes, a written notice will be sent to the property owner, giving a deadline
to correct any violations. If no
corrections are made, the owner may be sent a second written notice or the case
may be referred to the Boone County
State’s Attorney’s Office.

environmental and other public health issues log onto
