WHAT IS CODE COMPLIANCE?
This refers to how we enforce the City codes and ordinances affecting the quality of life in our neighborhoods. As a city, we want all of our citizens to be able to live happily in their homes, whether as a renter or an owner. Each one of these codes and ordinances have been established to assist in sustaining the high quality of life we appreciate in Florence. We strongly suggest you take time to read each one, understand the consequences, and know how to report a violation. |

This is Timrod Park... |
Who we are...We are just one of those traditional neighborhoods that have access to what matters: cultural diversity, exceptionally valued properties, beautiful green spaces and walkable proximity to everyday destinations such as restaurants, grocery stores, churches, synagogues, and schools. Our residents enjoy walkable amenities including: bird watching and playing in our 18-acre park; picking up groceries at the Piggly Wiggly; meeting for breakfast at the Venus Pancake House and grabbing lunch at Jimmy John's; walking their children to the Florence Library; attending exhibits at the Florence Art Museum or grabbing a cup of coffee at the Krispy Kreme. Timrod Park is a sustainable, historic neighborhood built to last, evolve and improve with age!
