Zoning Enforcement Home

Zoning Code Enforcement is broken down into three categories: Buildings Inspections, Sign Permits, and Code Enforcement.

Commercial and Residential Building Inspections

Building inspections are conducted by the Zoning Enforcement Officer to ensure that properties are developed according to the plans approved by the City Council, the Planning Commission and City staff. Inspections are necessary to maintain the quality of materials used, design guidelines and aesthetics required when developing properties. Maintaining the quality of development in the community allows property values to remain at a reasonable and consistent level. Inspections are scheduled through City of Olathe Building Inspections.
