HomeMy WebLinkAbout305 Surf Drive (65)The situation at 305 Surf Drive continues. I just met with Code
Enforcement and the Building Department. I am told that the pool
demolition will begin on Tuesday. I asked about all of the other
violations and there is nothing being done about them other than Gerry
has filed a complaint about my fence. I’ll take care of my fence. I need
more aggressive action on the 305 property.
On August 20, 2015, the minutes of the Code Enforcement meeting member
Cloney asked that Mr. Schmitz be made aware of what he needs to do to be
in full compliance.
I am asking now for the City to provide me exactly what was done to
meet Mr. Cloney’s request to ensure Mr. Schmitz was informed of all that
needed to be done. It is not just the Pool. The inaction on this
situation for the past 10 years is appalling.
I am left with no solution and no answers other than the City is doing
“all it can do” and I disagree. Continuing to say “we can’t enter the
property” is hollow. Do no more than stand in my yard and look at what I
look at and have looked at for more than 10 years. If the City will
clear the east property line, remove the junk including the derelict
boat hull and overgrown rubber tree I will put up a fence. I called a
fence contractor for an estimate and he looked at the City barricade and
sign and said he won’t touch it until that situation is cleared up.
PLEASE HELP ME!!
I have asked to speak to the City Attorney and intend to do everything
possible to give this as much viability as I can. This is an
embarrassment to the city. Over the next few weeks I will be requesting
additional City records and will present a summary of all I find to the
City Council at the next meeting.
