I would ask you to silence or mute your cell phones or any other digital devices. Welcome to the February 3rd meeting of the Dundeedon Code Enforcement Board. If this is your first time here, our meetings are recorded digitally, and it's important that when you come to speak, you state your name and you keep your mouth close to the microphone. That makes it easier for the people who are doing the stenography transcription to do their job. Ms. Ballard, would you read the call to order, please? Yes. Under the statement of purpose. Before proceeding, I will set forth the purpose of this board. The Code Enforcement Board is charged with conducting hearings to determine whether a violation of the code or codes and ordinances of the City of Dunedin has occurred. In order to meet that obligation, all parties or their 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. The respondent may be represented by an attorney or some other representative. If the respondent presents photographs or written materials as evidence, they may be submitted to the board secretary for inclusion in the case. Any members of the board, the person 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, conclusions 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. Do we have anybody here on a matter that is not on the agenda? This is the opportunity for the public to address the board. If not, we will go forward. The first item on the agenda is the consent agenda. Approval of the meeting minutes from January 6, 2026. I personally caught one typo. Do other board members have any comments? No? Okay. On the third line on page six. Um I serve as chair, but vice chair uh is Jamie Ballard. Catherine, you'll make that change. Okay, thanks. Uh any other comments? Corrections? Amendments to the minutes? Okay. I'll entertain a motion to accept them. Jamie Ballard, I move. Jeremy Reynolds, I second. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Gillette. Aye. Mr. Bulldock?
