Code violations escalate into legal showdown
In a recent government meeting, officials discussed a notice of violation issued to Barbara Burghardt for multiple code infractions in Martin County. The violations, documented on May 2, 2024, included issues related to inoperable vehicles and nuisance declarations concerning undergrowth and trash, as outlined in various sections of the Martin County Code.

Burghardt was given until May 22, 2024, to rectify the cited violations and was advised to contact Martin County Code Enforcement for assistance. However, compliance was not achieved, prompting the issuance of a notice of hearing via certified mail on July 11, 2024. Notably, the return receipt for this notice was not received, leading to further action.

On August 8, 2024, the property and the county administration building were posted regarding the ongoing violations, with an affidavit of posting recorded as part of the county's documentation. This situation highlights the county's efforts to enforce compliance with local ordinances and address community concerns regarding property maintenance.
