The Gulfport City Council has adopted Municipal Codes (laws) specifically designed to address blight, nuisances and threats to public safety, and to maintain a clean environment for all citizens. The City of Gulfport does this by working in partnership with the people of Gulfport.
The Office of Code Enforcement is responsible for promoting and maintaining a safe and desirable living and working environment in Gulfport. The office helps maintain and improve the quality of life in our community by administering a fair and unbiased enforcement program to correct violations of municipal codes and land use requirements. The office also works with residents, neighborhood groups, public agencies and other city departments to create and design plans for community form-based codes and to implement building and land-use standards once they are adopted.

The City of Gulfport is seeking public input to help update its Hazard Mitigation/Flood Protection Plan. The plan identifies and assesses the risks from natural hazards faced by the community and how to best minimize or manage those risks. Having an updated hazard mitigation plan is necessary to qualify for federal mitigation funds.
As part of the update, Gulfport residents are being asked to take part in a 10-question, anonymous survey online. The questions ask respondents to identify and assess hazards you face in your neighborhood. To take the survey, click here.
