The Department of Housing and Community Development is the City of Tucson Department responsible for administering housing, community development and social services programs.

The Department plans, funds and operates programs which assist Tucsonans, and families throughout Pima County, to improve their housing options, their neighborhoods, and their lives.

Housing and Community Development is now also responsible for investigating code complaints that affect the health and safety of residents by enforcing a number of City regulations such as the Neighborhood Preservation Ordinance, Refuse Code, provisions of the Land Use Code, Sign Code, and the Peddler’s Ordinance.

The Department helps individuals and neighborhoods foster positive relationships, increase communication and work on issues of concern together. Neighborhood services include mailings, meeting facility assistance, and help with obtaining tools and roll-off containers.
