HomeMy WebLinkAboutRequirement for Independent hearing OfficerAnthony, the reason the City Manager David Greene made a recommendation
for the hiring of Independent Hearing Officer D. Andrew Smith was “Due
to several serious allegations by Mr. Lennon against City Officials and
Staff”. This was clearly spelled out in the revised agenda on Sep. 6,
2016 item #3. The certified letter you sent to me on Sep. 21, 2018
clearly prohibited any discussion on this matter (see attachment). Since
some of the allegations are against you, Mr. Garganese, it is
inappropriate for you to intervene on this matter, the same as it was
inappropriate for you to intervene in the police investigation. The City
of Cape Canaveral should be advised to seek independent council for this
issue. The matter of the independent hearing officer is separate from
the appeals hearing on the variance.
On the variance, you remark that, “This matter in all respects is
closed.” This is incorrect. The City Council’s requirement that Sheropa
demolish part of the structure at 127 Oak Lane has not been completed.
I have been nothing but truthful and want nothing more than to have the
City of Cape Canaveral follow the rules.
Florida has a very broad public records law. As a result, any written

media upon request, unless otherwise exempt. Under Florida Law, email
addresses are public records. If you do not want your email address
released in response to a public-records request, do not send electronic
