Second, if you're going to be speaking. Everything here is recorded. And these mics work best when you really come up and kiss them. If you sit back here and talk. This the stenographers are not going to be able to hear your voices. And along those lines, I'd also say that if you are going to be speaking, if you state your name first before you begin speaking, that does make it easier for the people who are transcribing the audio record. Catherine, are you ready? Okay. Jeremy, do you want to read the call to order? Yes, I'm going to call the orderly meeting of the Deakin Code Enforcement Board. I have no special announcements, statement of purpose. Before proceeding, I will set forth the purpose for 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 representatives 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 opportunity to present its evidence. Any members of the board, the person presenting the city's case or the city attorney may question any witness before the board. The respondent and 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 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, conclusions, conclusions of law, and affirmative action to be taken. The order will be forwarded to the respondent by certified mail. We'll now continue with our hearings. Thank you. So we have more people here in the room than we customarily do. Um the first item on the agenda uh is an opportunity for members of the public to share any concerns with the board for items that are not on the agenda. Is there anyone here who has something they want to share with us? I'm assuming that the group here are spectators and no, they're for a case. They're for a case. Oh boy, it's gonna be a long afternoon. Okay. Um consent agenda, the first item on the agenda is approval of the minutes from last month's meeting. Um I'll entertain a motion. First giving board members an opportunity to offer any corrections or edits. Jamie Ballard, I move to accept the minutes for the June 3rd, uh, 2025 meeting. Jeremy Reynolds, I'll second. Thank you. Do a roll call. Do you want to do a roll call? Mr. I'll say hi. Okay. We'll just do it by motion then. So all those in favor of accepting the minutes from last month's meeting? Hi, that's right. All those in favor, we're fine. Okay, folks who are gonna be testifying, um, please stand. That would include city. Anyone who plans on speaking before us needs to be sworn in.
