Bay County officials are tackling ongoing property violations in a recent Code Magistrate Hearing, highlighting serious concerns over unsafe living conditions. The hearing, held on July 16, 2025, focused on a property featuring a double-wide mobile home in the front and a single-wide in the back, both deemed unsafe.

During the session, inspectors presented initial and follow-up photographs that documented the deteriorating state of the property, which included derelict vehicles and hazardous conditions. The property owner’s daughter, Kyla Sheryl, attended the hearing, where the magistrate decided to grant a continuation, allowing more time for compliance.

Evidence presented included a compliance order and a notice of hearing that had been posted at the Bay County government center on July 1, 2025. The situation remains critical, with the property still in violation due to issues such as a camper in the front yard and accumulated trash.

As the county moves forward, the focus will be on ensuring that necessary improvements are made to protect the safety and well-being of the community. The next steps will be closely monitored as officials aim to resolve these ongoing violations.
