North Port Imposes $15,000 Fine, Tackles Unsafe Properties

North Port’s Code Enforcement Hearing on September 24, 2025, imposed a significant $15,000 fine for illegal land clearing. Officials also addressed multiple unsafe and repeat-offender properties, aiming to improve community safety.

These actions by North Port uphold local environmental and growth policies. They also ensure public safety by addressing hazardous, abandoned and repeat-offender properties within residential areas.

European Alpha Results LLC faced a $15,000 fine for illegally clearing land without a permit, violating North Port’s tree protection regulations. This decision highlights the city’s commitment to environmental and growth management enforcement.

An abandoned property at 1454 Ronald Street was deemed unsafe with an unsealed structure and a roof not intact. Officials stated it “may cause harm to any children that might enter,” posing a significant public safety hazard.

A repeat code enforcement violation at 6328 Pan American Boulevard involved an unsafe structure with walls falling apart. Records showed the “lien is already maxed,” underscoring a persistent public safety concern in the neighborhood.

The City of North Port Code Enforcement Hearing met on September 24, 2025, at 9:00 AM, in the City Commission Chambers. These hearings address violations of city ordinances related to property maintenance, environmental protection, and public safety. Hearing Officer James Toale presided.

The enforcement process typically involves inspections, attempts to contact property owners, and presentation of evidence. Compliance is a primary goal, with many cases resolved or given timelines for correction. For severe or persistent violations, fines encourage adherence to city regulations.

For further information on code enforcement regulations, residents may consult the City of North Port website or visit City Hall, located at 4970 City Hall Boulevard, North Port, Florida.

Code enforcement cases are regularly reviewed, with many continuing to future hearings to track compliance. The City of North Port remains committed to proactive enforcement to address issues impacting the well-being and environmental quality of its neighborhoods.
