Unfortunately the County does not regulate this and is unable to assist because it is a civil matter.

Unfortunately Osceola County does not have a department that can assist as this is regulated by the State under the Landlord and Tenant Florida State Statute.

You will need to file with the The Clerk of Courts Civil Division. You may also contact the Florida Department of Health with any concerns at (407) 742-8605.

A County Code Enforcement officer can investigate your request during normal business hours, unless a pre-arranged after-hours inspection is scheduled. You can request this by calling 407-742-0400.

Otherwise, all after-hour noise complaints must be made to the Sheriff’s office at 407-348-2222.

Osceola County Code Enforcement can assist. Please submit your request through our Citizen Action Center portal, or call 407-742-0400.
