Codes Compliance 6 assigned this issue to Codes Analyst 2

Inoperative vehicles should be removed or properly stored to comply with code.

The communal garbage cans can be moved by approval from the POD. Can you support that this was done without approval?

Municipal code section 16.40.100.5 restricts neighborhood zoned property to no more than 2 pieces of domestic equipment parked outside an enclosed structure not to exceed 35 feet long, 12 feet high, and 8 feet wide. Can you support that the trailer does not comply with code?

Municipal code section 16.40.040.3 has a chart detailing the fence placement for the type of lot. Municipal code section 16.60.050 describes fence placement in front/side/rear yards in neighborhood traditional areas as "To property line" Can you support that the fence does not comply with code or property lines?

The communal trash can was moved to the opposite side of the alley from all other cans in the alley. Any garbage truck servicing this alley would not be able to dump the can from its current position. There are more than 2 pieces of domestic equipment in the back yard.

As moving the communal garbage can to an unserviceable side of the alley would impact all who use it, including the property owner/tenant assumed to have moved it, is it not possible that temporary relocation of the communal garbage can was done by the sanitation department or transportation department for the purpose of maintaining the alley?

Excluding passenger vehicles and motorcycles, the city defines domestic equipment to include motor homes, trailers, boats, utility trailers, and recreational vehicles. The original description lists multiple inoperative vehicles, but only one trailer. Are there additional items on the property that would classify as domestic equipment? If so, are there more than the two allowed?

The issue that you reported previously has been addressed by the City, and this open work order is now closed. Please feel free to submit future requests to us via SeeClickFix St. Pete, and thanks again!
