Trimming at Lakeview Park




A neighbor sends photos of piles from recent apparently unauthorized cutting done to certain locations within Lakeview Park, along with this excerpt from the County Code:

From Sarasota County Code of Ordinances, Article II, Section 90-33 (16) - Prohibited Activities, Conditions or Uses:
