Neighbors press Clermont council for enforcement at alleged chronic‑nuisance property on Sunset Lane
Loading...
Summary
Residents Pat and Daryl Woodhouse told the council that longstanding conditions at 1919 Sunset Lane — repeated police/EMS responses, debris and suspected illegal activity — require a property‑maintenance, nuisance and zoning investigation and measurable action within 30 days.
Pat and Daryl Woodhouse, Sunset Lane residents, told the council they and neighbors have repeatedly reported ongoing criminal and nuisance activity at 1919 Sunset Lane and that conditions have worsened despite prior complaints. Pat Woodhouse said the property "meets the definition of chronic nuisance property" with frequent police and EMS calls and visible accumulation of debris; Daryl Woodhouse said an overdose death occurred in the house about 18 months ago and described repeated short‑stop visits by people he described as engaged in drug activity.
Both requested stronger code‑enforcement action: a formal nuisance investigation, a fire and safety inspection, and measurable corrective action within 30 days. Staff and the mayor replied that police and code enforcement have been engaged, that the mayor had recently received a police report, and that staff would meet with the residents and police chief to review enforcement steps.
Ending: Council committed to follow up with police and code enforcement and to meet with the residents to discuss next steps.
