Layfields get time to permit or remove unpermitted structures, clear litter
Summary
Levy County code enforcement allowed the Layfields 30 days to permit or remove unpermitted sheds/containers and 60 days to clear trash and litter; staff documented unpermitted containers, trailers in the right-of-way, and scattered litter.
Code enforcement officer Bradley Frazier told the magistrate that Crystal and Tony Layfield’s parcel in University Estates (parcel ID 0968400600) contains unpermitted containers and a shipping container, trailers parked in the right-of-way and scattered litter. Frazier noted the violation was first observed on Nov. 13, 2025 and documented attempts to notify the property owners.
Crystal Layfield said health issues and other constraints slowed cleanup but that the family had hauled away several loads and was continuing work. The magistrate granted 30 days to remove or permit the unpermitted structures and 60 days to clear litter and junk; fines will accrue after the cure periods ($50/day for structures/RVs and $100/day for junk if not cured). Frazier also corrected a parcel-ID listing error in staff paperwork during testimony.
The case record includes photographs provided by staff; the magistrate advised owners that permitting is an available remedy if removal is not feasible and that structures placed within property lines still require permits.
