Mr. LeFever
On August 24 2016 I submitted the following questions to David Dickey.
Mr. Dickey
1) Did all members of last night’s Board of Adjustment receive
copies of all 3 of the certified letters I sent to: Community
Development Department, 110 Polk Avenue, P.O. Box 326, Cape Canaveral
prior to the hearing?
2) The owner of 123 Oak Lane, Tim Turner, and myself, Bernard
Lennon, 126 Oak Lane, both followed your instruction to stop Patrick T.
Lee’s LLC from taking our property with a faulty survey. Why was Tim
Turner granted a hearing to stop encroachment by Patrick T. Lee and I
was denied a hearing?
3) What is required by me to be granted a public hearing on 127
Oak Lane violation of Section 110-297(a)(1), City Code?
4) Do I have a method to appeal your decision to ignore the
signed/sealed surveys submitted by 123 Oak Lane, myself, and the one
used by the City to locate the current right-of-way markers, when you
instead choose to use the survey submitted by Patrick T. Lee that has
been proven to be wrong?
5) Why are the current Right of Way markers on Oak Lane not being
used?
6) What is the name of the surveyor who installed the original
right-of-way markers and what is the name of the surveyor being used to
relocate the right-of-way markers to match Patrick T. Lee’s faulty
survey?
7) You mentioned that a hearing is required to move the
right-of-way of Oak Lane. Will I be notified of the date and time of the
hearing at least 30 days in advance to prepare a defense?
8) Since you insist on relocating everyone’s property line 12 feet
north, what is required by me to remove the fence located between my
property and Sea Spray Town homes and move it 12 feet north?
9) Since you have not yet determined where you are going to locate
the new right-of-way, will you be issuing a Certificate of Occupancy to
127 Oak Lane prior to completing the preliminary engineering work to
relocate Oak Lane?
On August 25 David Dickey said he would answer all questions in 5 to 7
days.
It appears that David Dickey is delaying this process because we cannot
move on until the questions are answered.
A signed copy of this letter was mailed certified 7015 0640 0004 1075
1960 to: Robert Hoog 210 Jefferson Ave, Cape Canaveral, Florida 32920.

Importance: High
Good afternoon Mr. Lennon,
Before we move forward, we need to confirm that you will be able to
attend the Public Hearing on October 24th. Our City’s Zoning Department
is prepared and ready to send out the required 500 foot radius notices
of the hearing and post the affected property as soon as we have
confirmation from all parties, including yourself. We already have
confirmation from the variance applicant and the hearing officer.
Additionally, certified notices of the hearing will be sent to you, the
variance applicant, and the hearing officer.
It should be noted that the requirement for such a notice, per City
Code (quoted below), is 14 calendar days. (This is above and beyond the
State requirement of 7 calendar days.)
“Sec. 110-28. - Due process; special notice requirements.
(a) All applicants shall be afforded minimal due process as
required by law, including the right to receive notice, be heard,
present evidence, cross-examine witnesses, and be represented by a duly
authorized representative.
(b) In addition to any notice requirements provided by state
law, all public hearings under this article shall be publicly noticed
for at least 14 calendar days prior to the date of the hearing. Said
notice shall include the address of the subject property, matter to be
considered and the time, date and place of the hearing. The city shall
post notice of public hearings in the following manner:
(1) Posting the affected property.
(2) Posting at city hall and on the city's official website.
(3) Notifying all owners of real property (including
homeowner's and condominium associations) adjacent to and within 500
feet of the subject property. All notices required by this subparagraph
may be sent by regular mail except that public hearings related to
applications for rezoning shall be sent by certified mail, return
receipt requested. Further, unless otherwise provided by law, notices
required by this subsection shall only be mailed for the first public
hearing before the first board required to hear an application under
this article. Subsequent hearings on the same application shall not be
required to be noticed by this subsection. Applicants shall be solely
responsible for the costs incurred for notification under this
subparagraph.
(4) Notifying, by certified mail, the owner(s) of the subject
property for which the application is being made.
The notice requirements set forth in subsections (1), (2), and (3)
above are hereby deemed to be courtesy notices. The failure to provide
such courtesy notices shall not be a basis of appealing any decision
made under this chapter.”
The City is planning to meet the 14 calendar day notice requirement
with plenty of time to spare.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
Thank you.

One of the reasons we are having a Public Hearing before an independent
Hearing Officer is because David Dickey did not give a 30-day notice to
the affected property owners within a 500-foot radius. He then falsified
the public records saying he had given notice.
For this public hearing to work you need to make certain all laws are
being followed from here on out. Can you mail a 500-foot radius with the
required 30 days’ notice, for an October 24 hearing?

Mon, 10/24/16 9a-3p
Good morning Mr. Lennon,
Would you be available for a Public Hearing before an independent
Hearing Officer to consider the appeal to Variance No. 2016-02 and make
recommendations to the City Council. We are targeting Monday, October
24th in the Library Meeting Room at 201 Polk Ave. (same venue as City
Council Meetings) from 9a – 3p. The action to authorize City Manager
David L. Greene to engage a Hearing Officer was voted for unanimously by
the City Council at the Special City Council Meeting of September 6th.
Once we have confirmation of all parties’ availability, I will contact
each party to confirm the date/time and any other pertinent information.
Then we will be able to send out the proper notices by per City Code
Sec. 110-28 - Due process; special notice requirements
