102 N. Dixie --
He should have been fined $200 a day like they did to my Dad's property for only having the paint color not approved by the city on his warehouse. Beige is a neutral color and there shouldn't have been a problem with that since it was a repaint of the same color it was before.
Thanks for the e-mail. There are a lot of inequities regarding our code enforcement. Incidentally, the City eliminated the paint color approval requirement and you no longer need a permit. You now can paint your house any color you choose. And people are. Also, I am not sure that there are any EPA standards on the type of paint to use but will check into this. The loosening of standards, I suspect, has a lot to do with the influence of immigrants from south of our border.
