Overgrown lawn. I have checked the regulation regarding the height of grass for a lawn and anything over 12 inches is extreme. The lady that lives at this residence insists on using a manual push mower; she makes a few passes and that's it. It's been this way for months and now with all the rain is higher and higher. I gave her the name and number of a mower; but she insists to do it herself. Problem is she is not keeping maintained. I have witnessed snakes crawling there and yesterday had a raccoon stroll threw the yard about 2 p.m. in the afternoon. Don't need these type of critters living next door and the bugs at dusk will carry you away! This lawn needs attention now and before and across the street at #613 also.

The is house was rented four different times to unrelated groups from mid July 2020 to beginning of August by Siesta Key rentals https://siestakey.com/35144/ You can see in August its rented twice already within less than 30 days. The rental description says ~~1 month minimum in Season and 2 weeks out of Season~~ but they are renting it numerous times to different groups within 30 days. I have screen grabs of the rental website from last summer of rental dates of more than once a month and this year too for documentation as needed. The rental groups are often multi-family sometimes exceeding 8 , play loud music to the canal, the boat lift is broken so they park their boats in front of neighbors seawalls, we also have pics of that. Siesta Key rental is aware of the rules and likely the owners, but are disregarding.

Inoperable vehicles and boats stored at 2440 Ashton Rd, use of residential property at 5263 Portland Way to store business vehicles inoperable or not in use.

Mailbox in front of the garage. Paint cans on the side. They are on the side and in the small walled area. Hope this home begins a renovation.

After trying multiple times to get clarification from the County on when or if they intend to complete or have developer complete land development issues missing in the park I am told they are reviewing them with approved plans. They have been reviewing for several months. Engineer and Benderson were required to submit plans and certify that they met all land development regulations. Sarasota County is unwilling to ask Benderson to complete the park as agreed. No parking areas have canopy trees as required. Landscape Street buffer never installed along Cattlemen Road. Numerous ADA issues in the park. Missing sidewalks. Missing parking lot and pathways lighting. Missing parking lot striping and bumpers. Numerous areas missing ADA parking space. Those that do have no connectivity to bathroom or pathways. ETC ETC. County staff refuses to have Benderson complete the park as required by Land Development ordinance. Taxpayers are going to be on the hook for these issues. Why is staff looking the other way for Benderson?
