Code Compliance

City Reminder…

The City of Three Forks encourages you to familiarize yourself with our City Ordinances if you live within city limits.

Did you know…
Ordinance # 7-2-5F
It's that time of year again where folks have winterized their travel trailers and parked them near their homes.
 
However, you must keep the streets clear and vehicles moving often - every 72-hours in fact pursuant to 7-2-5F. If you have no intention of moving it until spring, please find a better solution. Please also think about slide-outs being out facing the street. This causing safety issues. The streets are being swept of leaves, soon they will be plowed, and others need parking spaces as they drive to and from work, school, or errands. Travel trailers are often very hard to see around them to oncoming traffic when they are parked near intersections. So please be mindful of others and either move them to a permanent location off-street, or move them often.
 
If they aren't moved every week we will red tag them reminding you to move it, or place a tow notice on it (towed at the owner's expense).

Ordinance # 5-5-1 & 2 states that vegetation (lawns & weeds) must be kept below 6 inches, including your alley and boulevard area. If you receive a notice regarding this violation, your property will be inspected again after 2 weeks; if you cannot bring the property into compliance in that 2 weeks please call us to communicate a plan.  If your property is still not in compliance, the City sends a notice stating if not brought into compliance within 7 days the City may enter the property to bring the property into compliance.

Ordinance # 6-4A-2 states that every dog over five (5) months of age in the city limits is required to have a license. The annual license fee of fifteen dollars ($15.00) for every dog shall be paid and said dog shall be registered on or before April 15 of each year at the office of the city clerk. It’s okay if you missed the deadline. Registration has helped many lost dogs get returned home safely.

Ordinance # 6-4A-4 states that every dog must be wearing its City license tag on its collar and should be under the immediate control of its owner. All dogs must be on leash at all times and no owner of any dog shall let their dog run at large at any time unless on private property.
