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 or their representatives will be allowed the opportunity to be heard on matters relevant to the alleged violation.

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 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 uh to question any of the witnesses before the board and present uh 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 seconded, discussed, and approved by at least four members of the board in order will be issued. The order will contain the findings of fact, conclusions of law, affirmative action to be taken. The order will be forwarded to the respondent by certified mail.
