'1. Certificate lisls the business use as
"Vacalion Rental."
This is not ordinary resideniial occupancy. lt is
vacation-rental / short{erm / transient-lodging
activity.
2, Certiflcate identifles the zoning as
"PRD-1."
The controlling question is whether Chapter 28 expressly
authorizes vacation-rental activity, short-term rental
activity, or transient lodging activity in PRD-1.
3. "Minimum s-Day Stay" confirms transient
operation.
A stay-length condition does not create zoning authority
if the underlying use is not laMully authorized by
Chapter 28.
Resident Position:
A ministerial Certificate oI Use cannot amend the Land
Development Code, amend the approved site plan, or
create a land use never laMully approved by the
Commission.
Requested Action:
The defective Certificate of Use should be revoked
immediately, and code enforcement proceedings should
begin immediately under Chapter 162, Florida Statutes,
to bring the property into compliance.

Unlawful Vacation-Rental Activity & Defective Certificate of
Use
Simple Visual Analysis of the Core Zoning and Land-Use Questions
Resident Position: lf the City cannot identify specific Chapter 28 zoning authority authorizing unlaMul
vacalion-rental activity, unlawful short-term rental activity, or unlavvful transient lodging activity within PRD-1,
then residents contend the defective Certificate of Use was issued without lavyful zoning authorization,
should be revoked immediately, and code enforcement proceedings should begin immediately under
Chapter 162, Florida Statutes to bring the property into compliance.
Are unlawful vacation
rentals, short-term rentals, or
transient lodging expressly
permitted in PRD-1?
PRD-1 is an enumerated zoning
district. Uses must be specifically
authorized, specially approved, or
otherwise lawfully permitted
within Chapter 28.
Residents have repeatedly
requested the exact PRD-1 code
section authorizing unlaMul
vacation-rental activity, unlalvful
short{erm rental activity, and
unlaMul transient lodging activity
Can a Certificate of Use
create a new land use?
A Certiiicate of Use is ministerial
and cannot independently amend
zoning classifications or create
new land-use rights not
authorized by the Code.
Residents contend the City issued a
Certificate of Use for unlawful
transient lodging activity without
identiRed Chapter 28 zoning
authorization.
Was unlawful transient
lodging activity disclosed
and approved during the
quasi-judicial process?
Material land uses should be
disclosed, reviewed, debated,
and approved during the public
quasi-judicial approval process.
Residents contend unlawful
vacation-rental activity and unlawful
transient lodging activity were never
specifically disclosed or approved
within the PRD-1 site-plan record.

HIGHLIGHTED DEFECTS: Vacation Rental + PRD-I + Minimum s-Day Stay
bp6r,FErY rr1xEn. PRo_l
WHY RESIDENTS CONTEND THE CERTIFICATE OF USE IS DEFECTIVE
1. Certificate expressly authorizes unlawful vacation-rental and
unlawlul transient commercialized lodging activity.
Residents contend this is not ordinary residential dwelling occupancy. The Certilicate
authorizes unlawful vacation-rental activity and an unlaMul transient commercialized
lodging activity.
2. Certificate identifies the property zoning classification as "PRD-1."
The controlling legal question is whether Chapter 28 expressly authorizes unlaMul vacalion-
rental activity or unlaMul transient commercialized lodging activity within PRD-1.
3, "Minimum 5-Day Stay" confirms transient operational lodging use.
A minimum stay requirement does not create zoning authority il the underlying unlaMul
transient commercialized lodging use is not expressly authorized by Chapter 28.
Resident Position:
A minasterial Certificate ol Use cannol amend
the Land Development Code, amend the approved
site plan, or create unlaMul transient
commercialized lodging rights never lawfully
approved by the Commission.
Commission Decision Point:
Does Chapter 28 expressly authorize unlawlul
vacation-rental activity or unlawf ul transient
commercialized lodging activaty wilhin PFID-1 ?
YES -> Cite the exact Chapter 28 section on the
public record. NO -> Revoke Certificate
immedialely and begin Chapter 162 enforcement
immediately.
REOUESTED ACTION: Besidents contend the delective Certificate of Use should be revoked immediately
and code enforcement proceedings should begin immediately under Chapter 162, Florida Statutes,
to bring the property into compliance,

QUESTIONS THE COMMISSION SHOULD REQUIRE THE CITY
ATTORNEY TO ANSWER ON THE RECORD
Regarding 2750 Griffin Road / Griffin Holdings
Unlawful Vacation-Rental Activity, Unlau/ul Short-Term Rental Activity, Unlawful Transient Lodging
Activity, and Legally DeJective CertiJicate of Use
The Iollowing questions involve core zoning-authority, land-use, and due-process issues
concerning the issuance ol a Certilicate ol Use for transient vacation-rental activity within the
PRD-1 zoning district at 2750 Griffin Road. These questions should be answered clearly and
specifically on the public record tonight.
1. What exact Chapter 28 PRD-I permitted use authorizes vacation rentals, short-term
rentals, transient lodging, or hotel-like lodging ai2750 Griffin Road?
Please idenlify the precise Land Development Code section relied upon by the City, including
whether the use is claimed to be permitted by right, permitted by special exception, or allegedly
similar to another listed use.
2. What exact legal authority allowed City staff to issue a Certificate of Use for a transient
lodging operation if that use was never expressly approved within the PRD-1 site-plan
approval process?
Please identify the legal basis supporting the issuance of the Certificate of Use and explain how a
ministerial administrative action can authorize a transient use that was not specifically disclosed,
reviewed, debated, or approved by the Commission during the quasi-judicial approval process.
3. Where in the approved PRD-I site-plan record was transient lodging, vacation-rental
activity, or hotel-like occupancy disclosed to and approved by the Commission?
Please identify the exact approved site-plan documents, rescjlutions, staff reports, conditions, or
hearing record references authorizing transient lodging activity at this property.
lf these questions cannot be answered with specific legal authority from the adopted
Chapter 28 Land Development Code and the approved site-plan record, then the
Commission should ask statf to immediately revoke the unlavuful defective Certificate ol
Use since it was issued without lawful zoning authorization and ask staff to immediately
seek corrective enforcement action under chapter 162, Florida statutes to enforce
com pliance.
