In a recent court session, photographs documenting property violations were submitted as evidence by the city, marking a significant step in a case involving Atlantic 509 LLC, owned by Cameron Winey and his father. The photographs, dated February 6th and March 25th, were confirmed to accurately depict the alleged violations, including a honeybee hive that had reportedly taken residence within the property.

Cameron Winey testified that he and his father had purchased the property with plans for remodeling, but a series of setbacks had hindered their progress. He acknowledged the presence of honeycomb, which he believed triggered the current legal issues. Despite their initial intentions, Winey revealed that they are now under contract to sell the property \"as is,\" citing the extensive repairs needed to bring it up to code as beyond their capacity to manage.

The magistrate noted that the city’s recommendations regarding the property would remain unchanged despite the owner’s testimony. Winey expressed hope for a successful sale, mentioning that the prospective buyer is a cash buyer who has already inspected the property and is aware of its condition.

The proceedings highlight ongoing concerns about property maintenance and compliance with local regulations, as well as the challenges faced by property owners in managing extensive renovations.
