that letters were sent to property owners regarding the violation with a
request for corrective action.
The
Community Standards Committee members will meet November 16, 2012 to determine
if these properties now meet compliance.
Those properties for which corrective measures have not been taken will
again be reported to the Diamondhead General Manager with a request for
follow-up. Additionally, the committee
members will also review language in the community standards document to
possibly suggest the revision of the initial section of the document regarding
banning parking of boats, RVs, motor homes, etc. on any residential property in
excess of 72 hours.

submitted,
Ginny Goral
