Lien Amnesty Program

St. Lucie County is offering a Code Compliance Amnesty Program as an incentive to property owners who may have outstanding code enforcement liens to bring their property into compliance with County Codes and Ordinances and obtain a quick reduction of their outstanding liens.

Please Note: This reduction does not include any collection fees that may have been incurred from a collection agency. Fees incurred by the collection agency must be satisfied before a release of lien. 

Program Duration:  April 1 through August 31, 2024

  • Property owner shall NOT have any active code enforcement violations on any other properties owned in the unincorporated areas of St. Lucie County.
  • Properties will be inspected to confirm there are no code violations.
