Residents expressed growing frustration during a recent government meeting regarding ongoing code violations and a lack of communication from county officials. Over the past year and a half, community members have engaged in numerous discussions with county representatives, yet they report little to no progress on issues such as noise disturbances, blocked roads, and threats to personal property.

During a sit-down meeting on May 13, 2024, residents were assured of regular updates concerning code violations and citations. However, after sending multiple emails to the growth management department, they received only one response on June 20, 2024, and have since been left in the dark. The situation has escalated, with residents describing nightly disturbances from loud music and an influx of cars near their homes.

A particularly contentious point raised was the appointment of an individual known for violating codes to the county planning board, which residents feel undermines their concerns. They emphasized that their goal is not to oppose local businesses but to ensure adherence to existing codes and to receive timely communication about enforcement actions.

As the community anticipates the arrival of new businesses with the upcoming sewer line installation, residents are eager to find collaborative solutions to mitigate the impact on their neighborhoods. The meeting concluded with a call for further dialogue between residents and county officials to address these pressing issues.
