1. City Code Chapter 6 - Buildings, Construction and Property

Code Enforcement Board Meeting · 2026-08-20 · agenda_item

The City of Cocoa Code Enforcement Board has identified a property maintenance violation concerning high weeds, grass, and debris. The property owner was previously ordered to correct these issues by July 15, 2026, and while a boat was removed, the vegetation and debris remain in violation of city code. This situation requires attention to bring the property into compliance with city regulations regarding property maintenance standards. The work would involve clearing weeds, grass, and removing trash, debris, filth, and junked appliances. For properties over five acres, specific perimeter clearing is required along public streets, easements, or adjacent occupied properties, with full property clearing for trash and debris. This is an early-stage enforcement action, presenting an opportunity for contractors specializing in property cleanup, landscaping, and debris removal to engage with the property owner or city officials before further action is taken. Early outreach could lead to securing contracts for site clearing and maintenance services.
