The Bay County Code Magistrate Hearing convened on August 14, 2025, to address two agenda items concerning property compliance issues. The meeting began with procedural announcements, including a reminder for attendees to silence their cell phones and an affirmation of truth for those providing testimony.

The first item discussed was related to a property located at 2038 Ballpark Road. Senior Investigator Tim Justice presented the case, detailing a prior hearing held on July 10, 2025, where the property was found in violation of Bay County Code Section 17. The violations included the presence of junk, appliances, overgrowth, and unscreened unused personal items. Notably, the property owner did not attend the hearing, but their grandson, Fred Brugge, was present.

Justice submitted an investigative report along with photographs and exhibits to support the case. These materials were introduced as evidence during the previous hearing and were referenced to illustrate the ongoing compliance issues at the property.

The meeting proceeded to the second agenda item, although details of that discussion were not provided in the transcript. The hearing concluded with a focus on ensuring compliance with local codes and addressing property maintenance concerns within the community.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the ongoing efforts of Bay County officials to enforce property standards and maintain neighborhood integrity. Further actions or decisions regarding the discussed properties will likely follow as part of the county's commitment to code enforcement.
