The Board is a quasi-judicial forum whose creation is enabled by Chapter 162, Florida Statutes. The Board hears testimony, determines whether sufficient evidence exists to find property owners in violation of county codes/ordinances, determines if any additional time is appropriate, and the fine that should be imposed for failing to comply with its orders. The Board is composed of citizen members who voluntarily and without compensation devote their time and talents. Any person desiring to appeal a recommended action of the Board should observe the notice regarding appeals below.
