Board finds 4855 Belmont Road in compliance and closes litter‑ordinance case
Summary
After a public hearing under MS Code Enforcement 19‑5‑105, Environmental Services Director Ray Laughter recommended closing the code case for 4855 Belmont Road; the board voted to find the property in compliance and take no further action.
The DeSoto County Board of Supervisors opened a public hearing Jan. 5 under Mississippi Code Enforcement 19‑5‑105 to consider a litter‑ordinance matter at 4855 Belmont Road and voted to close the case after hearing staff recommendations.
Environmental Services Director Ray Laughter told the board that the homeowner at 4855 Belmont Road — described in the minutes as a veteran — had worked to clean up the property and that conditions had improved substantially. Laughter said there remained vehicles in the yard but that the homeowner had "done all he physically can" and recommended the county close the case.
Supervisor Robert Foster moved and Supervisor Jessie Medlin seconded a motion finding the property in compliance with the county's code ordinance and requiring no further action. The motion passed with all supervisors voting yes.
The board's action closed the enforcement matter for the parcel identified in the minutes as Parcel #3 07 9 30 00 0 00045 00; the minutes record the finding and reference the public‑hearing procedure under MS Code Enforcement 19‑5‑105.
