Town ad listing property owners owing code enforcement fines nets no payments

Our rich neighbor is having trouble collecting code enforcement fines and went to the extent of publishing a list of delinquent property owners in the local newspaper - with no tangible result. Their "accounts receivable" pales in comparison with ours. At the last City Commission meeting, it was reported that only two code cases were presented before the magistrate at the last Code Enforcement hearing. Selective enforcement? Code equal to a charade? You decide.

The Commission, at the suggestion of Commissioner Maxwell, will be adding an update from Code Enforcement as part of their work session schedule.  A step in the right direction.
