The Dunedin Code Enforcement Board held a regular meeting on April 1, 2025, at City Hall, 737 Louden Ave., beginning at 2:00 PM and adjourning at 3:06 PM. The board considered four affidavits of compliance, one case of old business involving a continued violation, and two new business cases including a property with multiple code violations and a short-term rental violation. All consent items were approved unanimously, and the board issued orders with fines and compliance deadlines for the contested cases.
As I do every month, remind you, please turn off or silence your digital devices. Dan, do you want to read the purposes, please? I'll now call to order this meeting of the Dunedin Code Enforcement Board for April 1st, 2025. Before proceeding, I'll set forth the purpose of this board. The Code Enforcement Board is charged with conducting hearings to determine whether a violation of the codes and ordinances of the City of Dunedin has occurred. In order to meet that obligation, all parties and the representative will be allowed the opportunity to be heard on matters relevant to the alleged violation. All witnesses offering testimony or presenting evidence will be required to swear or affirm that the testimony they offer is the truth. The city through its staff will present its evidence of the alleged violation. After the city has completed its presentation, the respondent shall be afforded the opportunity to present its evidence. Any members of the board, the persons presenting the city's case, or the city attorney may question any witnesses before the board. The respondent or his or her representative shall also be permitted to question any of the witnesses before the board and present brief opening and closing statements if so desired. The board will then openly deliberate considering only the evidence presented, the law, and common knowledge. By motion duly made and seconded, discussed and approved by at least four members of the board. An order will be issued. The order will contain findings of fact, conclusion of law, affirmative action to be taken. The order will be forwarded to the respondent by certified mail. We will now continue with our hearings. Thank you. Thank you. Um do we have anybody here in the room who wishes to speak about an item that is not on the agenda? Ma'am, do you want to come on in? This is a meeting of the code enforcement board. Is that what you're here for? Yes. Do you have a case on before us today? Yeah. You do. Okay. Okay.

The first item on the agenda, approval of the draft minutes of our February meeting. We did not meet in March. Um they were sent to members of the board by email. Uh are there any corrections or edits that need to be made? If not. Excuse me, it was a February meeting. We didn't have a March meeting. That's what I said. February 4th. That's what I said. You said March. And I said we didn't meet in March. These are February minutes that we're referring to. Thank you. Okay, do I have a motion to approve? Jeremy Reynolds so moved. Thank you.
