Utica code questions can start with the county codes program page

Start a Utica code question with the city Codes Department. The city has a Codes Department page and a page about the county codes program. Use those pages before relying on a worker, neighbor, or another city’s list.

Check rental property, repair, and inspection issues before the work starts. Do the same for a job that may need code review. Bring the property address, city notice, and a short description of the issue.

Ask whether the city Codes Department or county program handles the next step. Write down the answer. Keep it with any application, permit, account, or ticket number. Do not leave the issue for a later sale or loan change without checking.
