RV parked on lawn plugged in 24/7

And the problem with the RV is. ????

Steward. I don't have problem w RVs as long as the owner is in compliance with city code

What incompliance do you see that this home owner is doing with this R.V? Just asking..

Steward Check out the code enforcement brochure online then take a ride by 233 coral and tell me if if they are in compliance I too am a taxpayer just saying

The video is compelling..what a shame

Oh my, Venice has turned into the ghettos.

It's been long enough, it's time to finish up all the projects going on at that house..

This case is under investigation - code case 17-246.

How many RVs are we allowed to have running on our property at one time?

Are you talking about hooked up to electric or water? By the code enforcement brochure online it says none. Sometimes you need to turn on the air in the RV. Some people just hate. I think boats shouldn't have water hoses hooked up to the motor and flushed out. Just saying.

Talking about it being hooked up continually not on a pad and additional construction debris on property

Coincidentally upon checking public records in the city of Venice the offender sits on the architectural Board how ironic my guess is this complaint will get flushed down the proverbial lawn toilet

This does not seem like an appropriate lawn decoration

Now we have lawn decoration code enforcement??. Or just some neighbor that has it out for this person. If little things like this bother you, think you need to go live in a HOA. So your grass cant be more than 3inches, mailboxes all the same, garage door not allowed to be open more than 2hrs, and so on. What next. You don't like the color of his house...

Dear Steward, The original complaint was: RV parked on grass plugged in 24 /7. Conversion van and an additional trailer parked on property construction Materials on property no driveway by garage and construction going on over a year and a half. A toilet bowl planter in and of itself might not be a problem but when piled on to many other issues it creates ill will. The homeowner should comply with code just like all residents must. Don't you find it coincidental or ironic that the owner of the offending property sits on the architectural board in town? Rules and codes are for all, not just peeons like myself.

Then let's see if anybody has any pull.

Tks Steward for understanding! At this point it seems like the only one with pull is the offending homeowner! (ps I'm not a complainer by nature and seriously was excited to see a neighbor add sq footage and improvements to their home...but after years and continuous violations, I gotta stand up and agree with the original poster.)

I see why Mr. Patient and Love Venice might be concerned about the creation of ill-will by acts of neighbors. Indeed, that video is compelling. It clearly shows that there is a “conversion van” and "an additional trailer" parked on the “offenders” property! And, perhaps you might be able to observe in zoom mode something that could well turn out to be ‘’more” construction debris… hardly acceptable at an active construction site. The reconnaissance video appears to show the plainly posted construction permits too (opps- were we not supposed to notice those?) Nevertheless, just as Ben and Love go on…. RV on the grass during modification of a driveway …and, if ALL of that were not bad enough… the conversion van “offender” has a planter you don’t like (but appreciated enough to photograph not once ,but twice, AND take a video of it). “Househunter,” you may be right, this may not be good enough for you. I keep looking to see how this adds up to “years” of piled-on “code” violations since one friendly neighbor saw fit to declare (I quote) “It’s been long enough, its time to finish up all the projects going on at that house” !!

While I continue to search for a reference in the online version of the "Venice Island Ghetto Prevention Committee Code Enforcement Handbook", … Are you suggesting there is or should be a different time limit for permits issued to people you decide are unfit for your neighborhood? I may be missing something, but I am just not following how you arrived at the very serious allegations that this “offending” homeowner/"conversion van" parking so-called code violator has or will engage in unethical or illegal actions in the context of a civic board position??! You justify this serious and unsubstantiated allegation as appropriate because someone has offended you with major home improvements? Unbelievably, this was applauded by your fellow complaint posters who, notably, share the love of Venice without those unseemly "conversion van" owners.

At your helpful suggestion, I did drive by to take a look. One might think from this exchange there was an offensive monstrosity being erected over the course of a decade. What I saw (from the street, not with a camera pointed at this guys windows 24/7) seemed to confirm that “the offender” appears, indeed, to be finishing improvements on that lot. Clearly, a neighborhood call to action may be warranted.

Given your persistent surveillance, I assume you have duly photographed/recorded with video the handicap tags on the vehicles??. I guess you have exposed the true underbelly of our town with these serious “code offenses”. Evidently this offending disabled homeowner does not understand that The.Rules.Are.The.Rules. and the good people of Venice cannot tolerate "conversion"-van-parking/amusing-yard-planter-placers who volunteer for civic boards getting away with such code infractions when the rest of us code-abiding “pee-on” neighbors comply by parking only socially acceptable vehicles and placing only “appropriate” planters on our properties. As you said, “ironic.” And a shame, too, for our town. Some people do just hate.

I hope the City officials investigating your apparently unsubstantiated and, frankly, offensive, allegations consider the Americans with Disabilities Act. In my experience there, DOJ is quick to make sure cities (ahem…and their “well-meaning” citizens) are mindful of the rights of their disabled neighbors. This could be a case of someone trying to create better access in one of these older homes on a fixed or limited income. Have you even bothered to get to know your neighbors outside the publics records you spend your days researching and their private homes you photograph and record?

Just because a disabled neighbor is slower and taking more time to finish construction than you have deemed to be “long enough” (if that is even the case given the lawfully posted building permit you helpfully recorded for us), it does not mean necessarily that disabled homeowner has violated any of your vaguely referenced “city codes” or, as you have alleged online in social media, engaged in some potentially unlawful/unethical response to what seems to be little more than relentless complaints from ‘well meaning neighbors’ who may have already crossed the line into harassment.

Undertaking major home improvements and one’s personal vehicle choice (if such a "conversion van" is a “choice” for someone with a disability …) simply do not “add up” to justify online anonymous tag team bullying or other harassment. At least your "conversion van" driving neighbor has a sense of humor to offer you (to go along with those annoying First Amendment rights).

Perhaps a redirection of your focus to a civic good, like volunteering to help the disabled or underprivileged in our community, might be a more rewarding and less stressful use of your time during the rest of that construction. “Just sayin…”

I'm truly sorry RU kidding, I didn't mean to sounds so abrasive, It just seems like the construction has been going since we bought our home 2 years ago. Ive met owner and she is a nice person, I just thought there was a time limit when you had to finish up the construction . I apologize if I offended you .

Way to go RU. Well said.

RU, when I met her last year I thought she told me she was a contractor and building houses and was her profession . I think that might be one of the reasons why neighbors are frustrated. She has employees that could help her.
And RU I took care of my daughter who was mentally and physically challenged for 40 yrs till she passed away last year. So I am familiar with people with disabilities .
But as I stated before I apoligize if I offended you

This Officer visited with H/O to discuss the R/V being plugged in 24/7. I explained the ordinance to her. She understood.

We went outside and she unplugged the extension cord. She is aware that in case of an emergency she may have to tie down or bring construction items into her garage.

At this time the case is now closed.
