Code Compliance Hearing · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item

A public hearing is scheduled for April 21, 2026, regarding a code compliance case involving vegetation at 150 N Coconut Palm Blvd in Islamorada. The property owner, Laurel K. Rafford, is required to obtain an after-the-fact permit for tree removal or trimming, pay associated fines and fees, and complete necessary inspections. This situation stems from a violation of Village Code Section 30-823(d) concerning vegetation pruning. The case is currently under review and will be presented to the Village Code Compliance Hearing Officer. The required corrective actions involve permitting, inspections, and potentially mitigation, all overseen by the Village of Islamorada. Contractors specializing in tree services, permitting assistance, and environmental consulting may find opportunities related to resolving this code violation. Engaging early with the property owner and the Village could provide insight into the specific requirements and potential scope of work.
