I did check with my attorney and he said local law ordinance violations do not show on background check. -- This is generally true. Ordinance violations are generally held in municipal courts which are virtually impossible to search in most cases because there are so many of them and they do not put records online or in any valuable database. That being said, it depends on the type of background check that is being done. The reporting laws in the state in question come into play. Also how the state houses ordinance violations is a key factor. At the end of the day, you will most likely never see a ordinance violation show up on a background check, but also, never say never. The best course of action is to self disclose all convictions on your job application so you cannot be disqualified from that job because of omitting something minor that the employer would not care about anyway.
