Code Enforcement has found your property to be in violation of the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances:
NATURE OF VIOLATION: The bush at the corner of your property where Beach Ave. and 5th St. intersect is

accordance with code,hedges and landscaping on corner lots must be maintained so that they do not interfere with
visibility or use of the streets or sidewalks.

lots may create obstacles to clear vehicular,bicycle and pedestrian sight visibility resulting in a public safety
hazard.Notwithstanding the following provisions, clear sight visibility for fences,walls, landscaping or any
structure proposed along the street side of any corner lot shall be reviewed and approved by the planning and
community development director, or designee,prior to issuance of the permit required to construct, place or

(3) Similarly,hedges and landscaping on corner lots shall be maintained at a height that does not interfere with
