Thanks Tom, I'm confused. I thought that sheds (while still having to meet code) didn't require a permit (via the Councilman Baily days, or I may have that confused with fences) . In any event where I left off with this is there is a code and a inspection for sheds (to ensure it doesn't blow away in a hurricane, set backs etc) The point being there are already codes for these items. What would P&Z be writing new code for (especially since most of the new developments here are HOAs and have their own very restrictive regulations on what you can have in your back yard)? There is already a restriction on detached buildings not exceeding residence sq feet? (unless they changed this for Tiny Houses, is that being thrown out the window?). By the verbiage here, it seems there is plenty of code regulations for home based business in residential areas. What is the issue they are trying to solve here? If this is simply they are going to further impede property rights on non HOA property (keeping in mind the Council has just passed mandatory utility hook ups, and trotted out a bureaucrat to tell us new Septic regs will cost homeowners $20K) then we should show up in numbers at the P&Z mtg. Thanks

I’d be happy if Palm Bay would enforce the codes and rules they already have. Once they get those in order, then move to new rules.
