Bay County's Code Magistrate Hearing on May 15, 2025, addressed ongoing violations at a property located at 10727 Las Vegas Street in Youngstown. The property has been under scrutiny for several months due to the storage of multiple campers and vehicles, which violate local land development regulations.

Code enforcement officials reported that despite previous communications with the property owner, including a notice of violation sent in July 2024, no significant changes had been made. Inspections conducted from July 2024 through April 2025 revealed that the violations persisted, with additional vehicles appearing on the property. The owner had expressed intentions to develop the lot but failed to obtain the necessary permits or remove the non-compliant vehicles.

During the hearing, it was recommended that the special magistrate confirm the property's violation of Bay County Land Development Regulation section 4.051, which prohibits such uses in residential zoning. The magistrate agreed to grant the property owner a compliance period of 10 days to remove all vehicles and personal property. Failure to comply could result in a fine of $25 per day, accruing as a lien against the property.

The hearing concluded with no representatives from the property present to contest the findings. The next compliance hearing is scheduled for June 19, 2025, where further actions will be determined based on the property owner's response to the violations. This case highlights the ongoing efforts of Bay County to enforce land use regulations and maintain community standards.
