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

This item concerns a Code Enforcement Board meeting for the City of Cocoa regarding Chapter 12, Section 12-11 of local business taxes. The property owner, McDonalds Corporation, is alleged to be doing business without a required local business tax receipt. A Notice of Violation was previously issued to the property owner. The recommended motion is to find the property owner in violation and assess a daily fine of up to $250 per violation until compliance is achieved. This is an early stage in the public process, as it is under review by the Code Enforcement Board. The scope of work would involve addressing the violations to bring the property into compliance, which could include obtaining necessary permits and receipts. Local businesses such as legal services, business consulting, and administrative services could be involved in resolving these compliance issues. Engaging early before final decisions are made may offer an advantage.
