In a recent Nassau County government meeting, code enforcement officer Travis Taylor presented findings regarding a property at 56269 Colby Drive, Callahan, Florida, which has been the subject of multiple complaints and inspections. The issues reported included trash, debris, and the potential living of a recreational vehicle in the front yard, as well as unauthorized digging on the property.
Officer Taylor detailed a timeline of inspections that began on July 23, 2024, when the county received a complaint. Following an initial inspection, a courtesy letter was issued to the property owner, requiring compliance with local ordinances. Subsequent inspections revealed ongoing violations, prompting a notice of violation to be sent on August 7, 2024, with a compliance deadline set for September 8, 2024.
Despite these efforts, the property remained in violation during a reinspection on September 9, 2024. A notice of hearing was subsequently issued, and a compliance date of November 5, 2024, was established, with a daily fine of $50 for non-compliance starting November 6, 2024. A fine assessment hearing is scheduled for November 12, 2024.
The magistrate confirmed the findings of violation and ordered the compliance measures as outlined by Officer Taylor. The meeting also included discussions on another property violation case, indicating ongoing enforcement efforts in the county to address public health nuisances.
