Description
AT: 701 Gantt av., 34232. The ROADWAY (N. & S. bound lanes) have been poured with reinforced concrete. AND COUNTY OFFICIALS ARE IGNORING THIS PROJECT.
Having NO R.O.W. Class (D)PERMIT issued.
Nor has any R.O.W. application ever been submitted, having all of R.O.W. procedural requirements performed and submitted with any application.
This concrete project occurred May 23, 2018, . And now/STILL, the Sarasota Cnty. P&D Director and several more Cnty. employees included are all looking the other way. Choosing to not acknowledge OR enforce the required "After the Fact Class(D) permit fee of $900.- and it's required permit x3 fees = $2,700.-" , plus the standard $15.- Document fee.
A combined Total, equaling $3,615.- is due.
One heck of a coupon attempt and totally illegal by all involved. Read the County's code Sec.26. PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION; RESORT TO OTHER REMEDIES, Pg. 128 of the (75-38) Zoning Ordinance.
SEE the photo showing the N. end of Gantt av., the roadway is obviously poured.
The driveway apron, that's also shown in the photo. It was poured at the same time as Gantt av. Roadway.
The driveway apron is another corrupt permitting effort, for this unpermitted project. Where: Six(6) days after the unpermitted work was completed. The 701 Gantt owners applied for " ONLY " a RIGHT-OF-WAY PERMIT Class (H) DRIVEWAY APRON< That (H) permit has zero/nothing to do with the pouring of BOTH lanes on Gantt av.,

01-22-2021.
Some additional info/text was clipped from the 01-22-2021 complaint.
the above evidence has been provided to the P&D Dir. and several other County employees. All, are looking the other way and refusing to continue communication/helping with correcting the obvious unethical behaviors. By maintaining, assisting in and allowing this concrete work, but not limited to. To go unrecognized.
This 701 Gantt av. property has been tagged in the County records as: NOT DEVELOPABLE as of 07-2020, on the property's Record Card. The lower sec. of that Rec. Card is attached.
So, why has Cnty. issued any of the permits issued at this undevelopable land ?
AND even worse, is the (10) Industrial Concrete trucks, but not limited to. Are Parking and driving up and down Gantt av. . Driving in front of (16) residential homes everyday, night on our 18' wide residential road. These trucks are so large. When they attempt to enter Gantt av. they have to invade the east bound flow of traffic on Palmer Blvd.. Causing traffic to stop til they enter Gantt av.. With that said.
Previous to the concrete trucks existing here on the Dead-End rd. of Gantt av.
The County issued a Notice Of Violation at their previous business location, also residential. Violating AND disrespecting that residential community.
Now the (16) residents residential property owners of Gantt av.
Also, County has issued a N.O.V. to the 701 Gantt av. property owners, Oct. 27, 2020.
That's Now More Than 80 Days Ago.
So, Why are they still on Gantt av. ?
It's time for the County Administrator to get busy and help the residents of Gantt av..
UNLIKE the unethical employees involved. Busy, suppressing the indisputable evidence.
Those associated:
> Planning & Develop. Dir.
> Zoning Admin.
> Chief Building Official.
> Code Enforcement Manager.
> and several managers within these divisions.

County,
This specific complaint, for an unpermitted Roadway project, has happened.
Each/Any code violation committed. It's required to be individually documented. With the County required procedure being performed. The issuance of a Notice Of Violation to the owner at the subject property. FOR UNPERMITTED ROADWAY WORK.
To establish/create their specific violation history.

01-27-2021. County,
Apply sec. 124-93. It reads: The Administrator or Code Officer SHALL (is mandatory) record PROPERLY (is separately) such complaint.
Also, this obvious unpermitted concrete project violation is about a County Road. NOT the 701 Gantt av. private property.
And as a Cnty. employee, your obviously attempting to use the powers, privileges or influence of your County position to offer personal benefits for others. By refusing to issue the specific N.O.V. , regarding this UNPERMITTED Roadway project complaint .
You're violating the sec. 2-123.(3)- Standards of ethical conduct code. NOT a good choice.
I've attached the previously recorded County documents again, pertaining to the subject property AND the (2) County Code sections mentioned, of importance to all.
The 701 property owners CONCRETE TRUCKS DO NOT BELONG on Gantt av.

Truly amazing. The County Administrator and his officers.
They're attempting to protect those responsible for a more than obvious unpermitted concrete project, with: NO Permit Applic. ever filed and obviously NO Permit issued. For the concrete poured on BOTH LANES of Gantt av., a PUBLIC ROAD.
The Cnty. officials that we want to trust... Have also been provided with eye witness testimony and photos of this after midnight project.
A Notice Of Violation has been earned...
and this complainant is requesting the public record reflect the issuance of the required N.O.V.

Truly amazing. When the Sarasota County planning and development director claims he's drivin in front of this property (701 Gantt av. 34232) on two different occasions. I have his email correspondence of him admitting being there as well another problem property on the same street.AND also he's written a falsified status report pertaining to this 701 Gantt av property & he's still refusing to acknowledge the unpermitted concrete poured on both Gantt av. lanes that he supposedly drove on.
Just the same: the zoning administrator, Planning and Development managers, several other County employees have all been present at the north end of this county rd./Gantt av.. That's been poured with concrete, UNPERMITTED.
Otherwise the entire street has a asphalt.
Also while you're attempting to ignore the obvious,
look at the county records permit# 20 163919 00 CG. Where there's already an outstanding violation written up dated October 27th 2020.
I've even received a phone call from a long-term Sarasota County employee Charlie Richeson, pardon me Charlie, if I've misspelled your last name. Where he discussed the property was being written up. That recorded document is attached, pertaining to the property your claiming your unaware of...
The unpermitted Roadway project has earned a STILL YET TO BE RECORDED, separate required Notice Of Violation to be issued.
This unpermitted concrete project needs to remain open until it is satisfied according to County procedures for unpermitted roadway work.

Sarasota County Government . / apply The Code language attached again.
The Guys that poured the concrete in North and south bound Lanes of Gantt Avenue In front of of 701 Gantt av.
Have earned a notice of violation Required to be issued .
You had no problem going up and down Gantt Avenue and issuing seven different properties notice of violations, some of them with more than one violation And you made certain that you put each and every matter as a notice of violation. This unpermitted Roadway concrete is a very serious violation of County Road being worked on after 1 a.m. in the morning and Definitely still without any permit being issued.
County, You're being so corrupt by ignoring the obvious . Somebody's going to take the blame besides the violators for being unethical. ANY PERSON assisting in, participating in and allowing a violation or to be maintained. See75-38. Section 26 Penalties., page 128 .

County,
Your required to uphold and enforce Sarasota County's Local Laws and Regulations.
Those responsible for Unpermitted Work. The County is required to issue a Notice Of Violation.
Enforce the highlighted County code language AND the Florida Statute ch. 162. language too.
That's referred to, in the code sec.22-126.11., titled: ISSUANCE OF CITATIONS FOR UNLICENSED CONTRACTING and/or UNPERMITTED WORK.
The owners of the 701 Gantt av. property has earned the N.O.V. for the UNPERMITTED concrete poured on BOTH lanes of Gantt av. directly in front of their property.
It's really bad when a resident has to spell it out for County employees...

Planning & Development Director.
You have a responsibility to make certain that all of Sarasota County's Code language is enforced as written and also :
Especially, when a new complaint was received for UNPERMITTED Roadway Work on a County rd. . The first step for the Code Enforcement Officer to do on site. Is to issue a NOTICE OF VIOLATION to those responsible for that violation. Just as you stated during a formal meeting with Cnty. Commissioners in the past...
Matt O., your staff is NOT to swerve a complainant that's reported an UNPERMITTED Roadway concrete violation, that it's been added to a existing/now (102) day old case, for PROHIBITED land misuse of private property. That's not buildable...
You and other Cnty. employees are continually using your Cnty. positions to benefit others. You've undeniably allowed UNPERMITTED Roadway Work to be ignored...
Yet another obvious violation by Sarasota County employees, Standards of ethics.

For allowing Building inspections/ Permitting fees to be waived.
This is exactly the same type of efforts being committed by more Cnty. employees today at: 701 Gantt av. AND ALSO at: 757 Gantt av.
Both are small ILW properties abutting a residential community.

AND YOUR STILL REFUSING TO ISSUE THE NOV, earned in front of the 701 Gantt av. property.
Your refusal to make certain that those responsible for the unpermitted concrete poured on BOTH LANES of Gantt av. are issued the required Notice Of Violation and charged accordingly.
By refusing to issue the NOV. Is a separate violation that will stick to you, according to the Sarasota County Government's sec.2-123.3.
Your continued choices to cover-up reported violations at (2) separateILW properties on Gantt av. . Is most definitely a violation of the sec. 2-123.3. Standard of ethics, code.
Your protecting those that have undeniably performed unpermitted Roadway Work. With complete intent to elude Sarasota County permit procedures and expenses involved to acquire the neccessary permit needed....

The residents of Gantt Avenue are clearly in need for the County Administrator's (your sworn oath to uphold and enforce) responsibilities
to recognize & make certain that all Sarasota County codes are enforced, as written. Especially when officials/employees are refusing to.
You've been provided the list of reported codes still being violated and the refusal to document unpermitted Roadway Work.
And where: the intentional efforts by several County officials/employees are ignoring/covering-up and allowing the more than obvious continued violations and unpermitted Roadway Work.
These matters must be addressed, NT COVERED-UP...
This complainant is requesting: you contact me to schedule an on Gantt av. meeting. To show you the required application of procedural efforts required by Sarasota County officials. Of which definitely are not being enforced and/ or applied. Also, to remind you again about the adopted penalty code section's requirements too. SEE the attached County Government Code Sections, but not limited to.

This district commissioner, claims he holds County Government responsible to the taxpayers AND represents ALL constituents.
Not for his Gantt av. /district #(1) residential constituents.
His claim, a bold face lie !
Especially after he's been informed by email, more than 400 times from this constituent and he's received (5) letters from Gantt av. residents.....
How many times has he responded ? -0. times.
This commissioner has also been informed of the County's Administrator and several other employees associated in very corrupt behaviors. Where they're allowing reoccurring code violations, unpermitted construction and definitely unpermitted concrete (2,000. Sq. Ft.) poured on both lanes of Gantt av., a County roadway, after midnight. And the Cnty. Admin. & his employees, also made aware and have completely allowed this unpermitted work and violations to go unrecognized.
WAIVING COUNTY PERMIT AND PENALTY FEES.
The concrete pumping company that's responsible for the above unpermitted Roadway concrete. They're in violation for driving their (10) oversized industrial pumping trucks up and down an 18 foot wide rd., passing thru and disrespecting (16) residential homes everyday.
And also operating their business on a parcel that's NOT BUILDABLE UNTIL THE PHILLIPPI CREEK SEPTIC SYSTEM REPLACEMENT PROGRAM IS COMPLETED FOR THIS AREA (I).
Currently, only in the design stage.

When is the County CE Officer gonna perform this JANUARY 22, 2021 CE complaint's required complaint location inspection ?
AND also, the CE officer's inspection disposition is required to be documented/ filed publicly.
This complaint does not get added to an existing case. That effort is nothing more than county employees swerving the truth. An attempt to waive a $3,615.- . AFTER-THE-FACT Permit & penalty fee definitely earned by the 701 property owners.
Matt O. and your Cnty. associates. Practice what you preach. ANY/ALL CE COMPLAINTS SHALL BE INVESTIGATED AND RECORDED SEPARATELY, not added to an existing case. The County's necessary & required (4) step CE COMPLAINT PROCEDURE PROCESS still has not been performed...

Sandra/code enforcement manager for Sarasota County. You and your staff are STILL denying the Gantt av. residents and thiscomplainant/citizen, required public service.
Not only have those responsible for pouring the planted and criminally issued driveway apron permit and the more than 72' long of Gantt Avenue's Roadway, both lanes and much more with reinforced concrete and completely unpermitted.
Also notice the next photo attached. Where: this concrete company currently at: 701 Gantt av. . They were issued a N.O.V. at their prior location. Also a residential community that they were operating their INDUSTRIAL CONCRETE PUMPING TRUCKS business through, when prohibited.
And now this same industrial concrete pumping trucks company. Is again, operating illegally by channeling through/on Gantt av., a dead end county road. And only having an 18' wide road. Which is even narrower than their previous business locations roadway...
Any new industrial development in Sarasota County, mandatory code requires: 2- 12' wide lanes and 2- 7' wide bike paths.

Why are you ignoring these reoccurring violations ?

This highlighted code. Was created / adopted by County Commissioners. For individuals such as our current County Administrator and the Seven Sarasota County employees under his watch that have all been made aware of this unpermitted roadway concrete project.
With the current Administration being all on the same dishonest team. The homeowners on Gant can only hope that the media will catch wind of this and make certain that the entire County for that matter the entire State learns what you have been allowing. I've said it before God forbid somebody should get run over by one of those concrete trucks. On an 18 foot wide Road when code sec.-124-253. spells it out. That they're (concrete trucks) in violation for operating from Gantt av.

Gantt av. Is ONLY 18' +/- wide.
And J. Lewis, and his staff I have absolutely no problem ignoring this specific code restrictions/ limitations for new Industrial Development. You /J. Lewis and staff, even went as far as to never present this critical SITE DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS. Even after you were requested that you make certain it did get presented for the March 5th, 2021. For: Special Magistrate, Robert Zach. He was
intentionally put in the dark OR he's associated too. Due to Sarasota County Gov. representation intentionally refusing to present the very incriminating photographs and this critical code language, that was requested long ago.
The way it appears to anybody that reads this story. Is, that County government staff is obviously batting for the violators, " A crime. "
The concrete Pumpers were previously located at another property where they were issued a notice of violation for operating at that site without any Site Development approval.

You oversee the Sarasota County code enforcement program. And being that you're the planning and development director. What seems to be your problem with you making certain that this: still open CE complaint gets investigated. Just as you so proudly have indicated more than once in your life. That there's a required three step for any CE Complaint made.
That process is expected to be performed.
Especially, after you've admitted to me that you've driven on the concrete that's been poured unpermitted. You had to do a turnaround at the North End of Gantt, using both the illegal poured apron and also both lanes of Gant to complete your turn around on Gantt.
Also, You were given a full description from an eyewitness to this unpermitted concrete. Including those involved/ County employees that have created a counterfeit right-of-way driveway apron permit. For the late night unpermmitted concrete project.

A concerned citizen, has asked county employees many questions, that remain unanswered. And the reoccurring code violations still exist.
It's very obvious, there's several county employees providing favoritism to the violators. For this complaint, but not limited to just this complaint.
This concrete project is is unpermitted and the counterfeit driveway apron permit that was planted after the unpermitted concrete work was completed, it's fraud.
Like I said, I've asked questions. And those questions still remain unanswered and I'm being ignored.
HEY MATT, WHAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH YOU MAKING CERTAIN CODE ENFORCEMENT IS DONE PROPERLY ?
You know, Planning and Development Services:
Code Enforcement's STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES.
YOURSELF NOR ANY OF THE OTHER EMPLOYEES, INCLUDING JONATHAN LEWIS. THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR ARE WILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND ENFORCE THE REQUIRED PROCEDURES. FOR UNPERMITTED CONCRETE POURED ON GANTT AVENUE.

Up to right now: Matt O., Jonathan L., Donna T., Sandra L., Mark L., Michele N., Dan S., Charles M. .

It's Saturday, October 16th 2021. And Sarasota County has a County Administrator. That has been fully aware of and he's still completely ignoring the obvious & conclusive evidence. Where: Concrete WAS POURED unpermitted on a Sarasota County Local street. A complaint was recorded more than nine months ago,. On, January 22nd 2021 to: SeeClickFix.
And still. Several Sarasota County employees are protecting those responsible for the unpermitted concrete work. The associated and corrupt County employees have fraudulently created and planted into public records. A counterfeit driveway apron permit, then falsely gave it an approved final inspection and publically recorded it too...
And the County Administrator and whoever responded to the unpermitted concrete complaint have indicated that complaint was added to an existing case pertaining to the property of: 701 Gantt. Another absolute Lie by not only the County Administrator but also the other employees below him that are all associated in these lies. The complaint has been acknowledged in the county system, but has still yet to be investigated as required, for what it is. A CODE VIOLATION. IT'S undeniably unpermitted work. Therefore, deserves a notice of violation issued along with the penalties associated with/for an after-the-fact permit.
Jonathan Lewis is not an honest public servant and he definitely does not do what it takes.
He should resign.
An anonymous SeeClickFix user (Registered User)
Furthermore, those responsible for the unpermitted concrete project on Gantt. They have eluded all necessary and required pre-construction R.O.W. Permit expenses. That are required to be submitted with any R.O.W. ROADWAY Permit application for review. And if a R.O.W. ROADWAY PERMIT were to be approved. Then, those required documents are to be publically recorded with that issued R.O.W. permit.
Those required procedures expenses, would calculate to be thousands of dollars.
Ask any honest citizen if they smell fraud AND favoritism ?

More than (9) months ago, this complaint was reported to code enforcement and then to the County Administrator and the planning and development director and the zoning administrator and the code enforcement manager and two planning and development services managers and two code enforcement supervisors and then to the County's Ehics Officer. AND STILL, this complaint still has not been investigated. It's more than obvious those individuals listed above, that are currently employed by Sarasota county taxpayers, the People...
And they're not protecting the very people that pay their salaries.
Look at the attachment indicating the new required Sarasota County procedure (s) for all Code Enforcement complaints.
Let the record reflect. Now, more than (9 ) months have passed since this complaint was made. And all of those County employees listed above, that are being paid by us taxpayer's.
THEY'RE OFFERING FAVORITISM TO THE CODE VIOLATORS. FOR THE UNPERMITTED CONCRETE THAT'S BEEN POURED ON A COUNTY ROAD, THE DEAD- END OF GANTT AV., NORTH OF PALMER BLVD. . DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE 701 GANTT ADDRESS, 34232.
This specific code violation reported is only one of many that's occurred AND is being protected at (2) separate Gantt av. Industrial properties. Both properties are being protected by the county government employees.
The current County Administrator has allowed this continued corruption, fraud and favoritism.
County commissioners, what are you going to do about this illegal activity ?

the UN-PERMITTED (reinforced concrete installed) on Gantt av., a local county road and not limited to just the un-permitted roadway concrete.
THIS COMPLAINT IS BEING IGNORED.

County Administrator. Your planning and development services director and his management staff along with the zoning administrator and code enforcement manager and her supervisors. Have refused to investigate this complaint. To make certain that this unpermitted concrete complaint is issued the required notice of violation, but not limited to...
It's now January 2022 and still no Sarasota County Standard Operating Procedure has occurred.
Because of unethical County employees...

February 2022 has almost past and still, Sarasota County's Code Enforcement and the Planning and Development Services is refusing to recognize the more than 2,000 sq. ft. of unpermitted concrete poured. All in effort to benefit those responsible for pouring Gantt av., a county road with reinforced concrete.
Without the required to be issued rights-of-way Class D and Class H permits.
To ignore an eyewitness reporting this unpermitted roadway work is 100% unethical behavior involving several Sarasota County Employees. And the County Administrator has been shown the conclusive evidence and he's completely disregarded the onsite evidence and the complete lack of required public records required for such work... Additionally, he's been requested to meet with the residents of this street and he's refused to allow that to happen and worse, without any legitimate reason to deny such a visit. It's very obvious, he's protecting several/at least 10 Sarasota County's crooked employees associated to these matters. They're all protecting those responsible for the unpermitted concrete project and have allowed the Plycrete Concrete Company to operate illegally from the 701 Gantt av. property, for just shy of 5 years now. Another fact, the Plycrete Concrete Company previous to this location. Was issued N.O.V. violation for the same illegal operation at another property in Sarasota County.
The attached photo is evidence that this complaint has not been investigated it's only been acknowledged.

Due to the man in currently in charge: Jonathan Lewis along with his designated higher-ups...

Obviously, We have at least (10) County employees protecting and have allowed the 701 Gantt av. property owners.
When NO CLASS (D) permit was ever applied for and darn sure wasn't issued...
And this Jan.22, 2021- SEECLICKFIX complaint has been concealed and covered-up for now more than (13) months. By the corrupt County Administrator and his Planning and Development Director along with at least (08) other County employees associated, each are willfully and intentionally waiving Sarasota County's STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES towards this Code Enforcement complaint and many other complaints too. Also, while offering their favoritism, their waiving serious amounts of County's revenue.
Clearly these County Employees are abusing each of their County employment's powers to benefit the PLYCRETE PUMPING COMPANY, but not limited to...
> The Plycrete Company is still operating illegally from 701 Gantt av.. Even after being lawfully ORDERED TO CEASE ALL OPERATIONS (twice) and are being fined daily.
It's very apparent, that this Plycrete Company's owners have absolutely zero respect towards Zoning Ordinance Laws and the Gantt av. residents.
Criminal, Creepy and Illegal...
