This depends on the specific situation. Most times storage, while unsightly, is not a fire hazard as defined by the fire code. Specific guidelines exist that relate to the type of material, storage height and separation from property lines. For any of these complaints, we recommend contacting the appropriate department in the city or the county. For complaints in the city, we recommend contacting the neighborhood nuisance hotline at (970) 416-2200. In the county, we recommend contacting the code compliance office at (970) 498-7683.
