Actually the building department follows the laws set forth by statutes in the state of Florida, don't take it so personal. By law, if they don't perform these duties in accordance with laws, then they can be sued or fired or both. It is a long, complicated set of rules and regulations that further require adherence to other codes which require adherence to ever more rules and regulations for every aspect of our lives.
So next time you vote for your state Legislators, remember is is those very elected officials who have made these laws which require these public servants in the building departments to enforce.

Many of you are a bunch of whiny, blame everyone but themselves, piece of..... oh, never mind... Typical complainers and trolls many of you are.

"In a discussion on repair versus replacement, Mahar admitted it was not specifically spelled out in the code. Practice dictated that plank replacement of more than three boards required a permit, he said."

So you are accepting a 3 board maximum for repair of decking without a permit? Get real, this is NOT a state statute, nor a dependency to other codes unless the basis is sheer foolishness.

Consider how the Collier County dealt with non-conforming docks in 2000:

God help us all! Even your complain of those that "are a bunch of whiny, blame everyone but themselves, piece of......"

You sound like a whiner yourself. Welcome to the club. Or are you carving out your own clique of whiners, those that are superior of other whiners, because "it is a long, complicated set of rules and regulations that further require adherence to other codes which require adherence to ever more rules and regulations for every aspect of our lives". Sounds like a government rationalization/response to idiocy or a city regulation without proper review, AGAIN!

Speaking of proper review, when is Mr. Pinter going to have a meeting with those folks that raised concerns regarding ROW standards at a Planning Board meeting at the request of Mr. Lazarus in the spring. Boy how time flies!

I guess it will go into the city files under "NOT FIT FOR PUBLIC REVIEW".

Folks wake up, for God's sake its your island NOT the city administration!!!!!!
