Complaints

The City Inspector’s Office enforces the Vincennes City Code of Ordinances. If you have a complaint about an address inside the Vincennes City limits such as tall grass, weeds, trash, junk and debris, please contact our office by phone or email. All complaints are confidential and will be addressed as soon as possible.

Upon receipt of a complaint, a code enforcement officer will be sent to validate the issue. We then send a certified letter to the property owner of record citing the violation. The property owner then has an allotted amount of time to correct the issue.

All the City of Vincennes ordinances can be found at the American Legal or by contacting our office. If you have received a letter of violation and need more information, feel free to contact our office.
