In March 2025, the City of Demoville established the Code Enforcement Board under the authority granted by KRS 65.8801 to 65.8839 to protect, promote, and enhance the health, safety, and welfare of all Demoville residents.
The Board ensures that local ordinances are upheld to maintain the appearance, value, and livability of our neighborhoods.
The Demoville Code Enforcement Board is composed of three resident members appointed by Mayor Hudson Q. Swartz III.
Code Enforcement Board Members:
- Leah M. Donnelly, Secretary

Powers and Responsibilities
The Board has the authority to enforce civil violations of City ordinances, including but not limited to:
- Overgrown Grass (exceeding 12 inches in height)

Citations, Fines, and Enforcement Actions
