Mission

The Bureau of Housing Inspections is responsible for enforcing the housing codes in the City of Bethlehem.

These codes cover the minimum standards required for occupancy of all residential structures in the City.  The City of Bethlehem follows the 2009 International Property Maintenance Code (amendments – Ordinance 2010-27)



Due to the impending digitization of the Permit files, the Permit Office will temporarily close Wednesday afternoons to the public. These closures will begin on Wednesday, August 2nd from 1 to 4:30 p.m. and last through Wednesday, September 27th. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
