Council seeks stop-work order after unauthorized tree removal at 20 NE 24th Street
Summary
Council directed the Village Attorney to request a stop-work order from Broward County for work at 20 NE 24th Street after the builder failed to appear and a tree was removed without Village authorization; the stop-work request passed by council consensus.
Council members raised code-compliance concerns about new residential construction at 20 NE 24th Street during the Sept. 24 council meeting. Council said Broward County had issued building permits but the Village code requires Council review before major construction begins. The builder did not attend despite invitations, and Council recorded that a tree on the site had been removed without proper Village authorization.
Council reached consensus to request a Stop Work Order through Broward County until the builder submits the required Village applications and appears before the Council. The Village Attorney, Pamala Ryan, will issue formal correspondence to Broward County to initiate the stop-work request.
