The dumpster was not properly covered and the debris was evident on the ground. CEOs issued the property owners a code violation waning and instructed the contractor to restore the site to code compliance. During morning inspections of the construction sites, CEOs discovered a site on Bal Bay Drive was left unsecured. The open gates allowed easy access to the site. CEOs issued the property owners a code violation warning and directed them to ensure the site was secured each night. CEOs also requested the contractor clean the street of debris to stay compliant with NPDES protocols. A construction site on the 10200 Block of Collins Avenue had unauthorized signage on its fence. CEOs directed the contractor to remove signage not permitted by code and issued a code violation warning. The Code Enforcement Unit assisted the Patrol Division at the Movies on the Beach event. CEOs helped with site supervision and vehicle escorts. CEOs patrolling the beach areas met with beach supervisors at a beachside hotel in reference to dogs and single use plastics. The beach supervisor was reminded to assist in preventing guests from violating dog and plastics restrictions. Criminal Investigations The Criminal Investigations Division (CID)was impacted bythe illness of Detective Gonzalez. Patrol cases were reviewed and assigned for future investigations. The CID assisted the Patrol Division at the Movies at the Beach event. CID personnel assisted with the coordination of the events, site security, and vendor escorts. Marine Patrol / Beach Safety Officer Details Stops Citations Warnings Arrests Reports AOA Contacts 07 01 09 00 00 01 47 Remarks Marine Patrol: Friday; Marine Patrol assisted Miami -Dade Fire Training Personnel with mock water rescue training inside the Haulover Inlet. Marine Patrol provided security for ocean rescue swimmers and alerted approaching boaters of the rescue scenarios. Marine Patrol conducted oceanside and bay side visibility patrols. Beach Safety Detail Activity: This weekend the BSO reported cold weather and low number of beach goers. Only two dogs were encountered on the beach and one person walking their dog on the jogging path. Dogs were removed upon request. The BSO met with all beach attendants and reminded them that beach chairs must be properly secured, by chain and lock, at the end of each day. Most beach attendants stated they already do this and those who don't stated they would be in compliance as soon as possible. Beach attendants were asked to be in compliance with this request by Sunday. On Sunday and Monday, the only buildings not securing beach chairs with chain and lock were The St. Regis, Tiffany and The Plaza. Due to cold weather conditions, beach employees were not working/available, so the BSO will follow-up with these buildings this Friday.
