  • Regina Dayton, of Spinnaker Drive, Marco Island, holds a picket sign in May 2009, upset at what she believes city building inspectors should have caught in 2006 before issuing a certificate of occupancy in her $1 million, custom-built, water view home.
  • A public appeal for support is made in May 2009 by Regina Dayton of Marco, who said challenges she experienced with her now-bankrupt custom home builder could have been thwarted if city building officials took due diligence when inspecting her home. She says she'll picket for as long as it takes to get action.
  • Beautiful home, ugly experience. Regina Dayton shares her plans for a protest and her problems with her home builder and city inspectors from her home on Spinnaker Drive Friday afternoon.
  • Disgruntled homeowner Regina Dayton stops traffic on Spinnaker Drive Tuesday to share the struggles she says she experienced with the city and the now-bankrupt home builder, Kimball-Hill Homes. She seeks a settlement with the city for missing alleged building code violations by the builder before the city issued approval for owners Regina and Tim Dayton to move in.

Regina Dayton protests city building inspectors, holding a picket sign and passing out reports to traffic on Spinnaker Drive near Tigertail Beach Tuesday. She shared what became a grueling process of building a beautiful million-dollar Island home with ugly, perhaps unsafe results leading to her pursuit of justice with the builder and the City of Marco Island.
