Honorable Mayor Hoog and Council Members of the City of Cape Canaveral.
Recently I was informed the City Attorney has advised City Council not
to speak to me about problems I am having with the Sheropa housing
development on Oak Lane. However the City Council is allowed to speak
freely with the Sheropa housing developer Patrick Lee. This helps to
explain past behavior from Council Members.
An appeals hearing initiated by me was held on 10/2/2018. A
motion was made by Council member Randals to deny Patrick Lee’s request
for a variance, seconded by Council member Morrison. That motion was
voted down and a new motion made by Mayor Pro Tem Brown to allow the
variance with stipulations, seconded by Mayor Hoog. This motion passed.
Mayor Pro Tem Brown has never spoken to me, not even hello or hi
even when we pass each other at the hearings. Mr. Brown even refuses to
read the emails I send to Council explaining the hardship we are having
on Oak Lane. He may have had a better understanding of the problems Oak
Lane residents are having if he had spoken to me.
On 10/31/2018, my family and I were in Harbor Heights for
halloween. One of the homes had 6 people siting in lawn chairs passing
out candy to children and adult beverages to the parents. The 6 people
were Mayor Pro Tem Brown and his wife, Patrick Lee and his wife, and the
two owners of the home. This was only a few weeks after Mr. Brown helped
Patrick Lee with the variance.
The City manager David Greene is aware I will be out of town from
8/24/2019 until 9/27/2019. He is trying to certify a falsified survey by
John Campbell to legitimize the Sheropa housing development. He is also
trying to give Patrick Lee a blanket variance to all of the code
violations for Sheropa housing development while I am away.
The City Attorney should lift the prohibition of City Council
from speaking to me about the Sheropa housing development. The
independent hearing officer’s report needs to be finished before
proceeding. Also Mayor Pro Tem Brown should recuse himself from voting
on the above issues.
Respectfully,
Bernard Lennon
