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

This notice concerns a property maintenance issue at an unstated address within the City of Cocoa, Brevard. The property owner is required to maintain their land by cutting weeds and grass to a height of 12 inches or less and removing trash, debris, and junked items. For properties over five acres, a 100-foot strip around the perimeter bordering public areas or occupied property must be maintained, with the entire property requiring trash removal. This item is currently under review by the City of Cocoa Code Enforcement Board following a citizen complaint received on May 20, 2026. The scope of work involves property cleanup, including removal of trash, debris, and overgrown vegetation, and potentially addressing issues with outdoor furniture storage and vehicle parking. Local contractors specializing in property cleanup, landscaping, and debris removal may find opportunities as the city enforces its property maintenance codes. Early engagement with the property owner or relevant city departments could provide insight into upcoming compliance requirements.
