Palmetto Bay officials unanimously voted on a shed-amnesty program at the Village's Council meeting Feb. 2. This new ordinance simplifies some procedures to allow residents to properly permit their backyard sheds. The 18-month amnesty clock started Feb. 2 -- so act now! The Council also took steps to authorize the Village Manager to proceed with the potential purchase a new Village Hall by providing for a $2,500,000 tax-exempt loan. Other matters on the February agenda included a resolution finalizing a uniform park-user agreement for all Village parks; an ordinance that modifies fees for organized users, leagues, schools, and private groups at park fields, picnic areas, pavilion/gazebos, recreation buildings, and open-field spaces; and an ordinance addressing on-street parking in the Franjo Triangle/Island area introducing annual fees that will create a fund for possible construction of a parking facility there.
