Since this type of activity apparently posed no problem when the <br />previous ordinances were written, we feel that there should be a <br />general and attractive nuisance ordinance written as a built-in <br />protection against future activities which may affect the environment <br />detrimentally and would also protect us now such as is written in the <br />City of Sebastian's ordinances under Section 16-1: <br />"(6) Essentially interferes with comfortable enjoyment of life <br />and property, or tends to depreciate the value of the property of <br />others. (Code 1970, Section 12-3)" <br />Perhaps the ordinance could be worded in such a way that the land <br />usage of A-1 properties (or any other zoning areas) must be COMPATIBLE <br />with the usage in the surrounding neighborhood. <br />Due to the time of the year (many of our neighbors are on vacation) <br />and the time of day of this hearing, we will be unable to have the <br />proportional representation at the hearing of those neighbors who have <br />strong feelings as we do regarding this problem so I am enclosing a <br />copy of a petition that was signed by only a few of the people in this <br />neighborhood who want this type of activity abolished as this petition <br />was worded and signed before we knew that it was,a civil matter to <br />pursue enforcement of the deed restrictions that affect some <br />properties in this area. <br />Our concerns are to keep this county as beautiful and environmentally <br />desirable a place in which to reside and work as it has been in the <br />past and look to you to help its growth be advantageous to us all. <br />Thank you for hearing us out. We appreciate the attention you have <br />given this matter in the past and if you have any questions regarding <br />this matter, we can be reached at 571-0637. <br />Siricerely yours,�� <br />John E. and Mary B. Wilson <br />COPY OF SAID LETTER W/ATTACHMENTS & PETITION IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF CLERK TO THE BOARD. <br />Mrs. Wilson stressed that she and her neighbors feel they <br />need some help to get rid of this and also to get someone out <br />there so we can invoke the Noise Ordinance. She noted that the <br />kids in the neighborhood are on the track during the day when the <br />owners are not on the land, and she felt this should be addressed <br />F <br />as an attractive nuisance or'a general nuisance. <br />Attorney Vitunac noted that "attractive nuisance" would be <br />addressed through the civil law process. Our "other nuisance" <br />has got enforcement procedures which we can use. <br />SEP 11 49 rP.a <br />
