Subject: Second - Sign Enforcement Inquiry and Public Record Request
Dear Mr. Thrasher,
I am writing you again regarding the property at 2770 Cardinal Cir. The sign I previously
brought to your attention was immediately replaced with another sign in the same location. This
new sign continues to be displayed as seen in the two photos attached to this email and is
displayed there now as I write this.
As I stated before, I personally have no objection to this sign and I believe the
homeowner has every right to display it.
On April 6, 2014, I asked the Custodian of Records if I could examine the public
record that is any record of Town Police Officers being made aware of the regulations made into
law by the adoption of Town Ordinance 1511. The Custodian responded on April 8, 2014 that I
should "be advised that no such record exists. " Since this sign is still on display in a manner that
appears to be in violation of the new sign ordinance, I wonder if Town Police have still not been
made aware of the new ordinance. Regardless, you have been made aware of the condition
existing on this property in regard to the new sign ordinance since April 6th.
Therefore, please forward to the Custodian of Records the following request.
I make this request pursuant to Article 1, Section 24 of the Florida
Constitution and Chaoter 119 of the Florida Statutes.
If you contend that any of the records I am seeking, or any portion thereof,
are exempt from inspection or disclosure please cite the specific exemption
as required by �119.07(1)(e) of the Florida Statutes and state in writing and
with particularity the basis for your conclusions as required by §119.07(1)(f)
of the Florida Statutes.
Please take note of §119.07(1)(c) Florida Statues and your affirmative
obligation to (1) promptly acknowledge receipt of this public records request
and (2) make a good faith effort which "includes making reasonable efforts
to determine from other officers or employees within the agency whether
such a record exists and, if so, the location at which the record can be
accessed." I am, therefore, requesting that you notify every individual in
possession of records that may be responsive to this public records request
to preserve all such records on an immediate basis.
If the public records being sought are maintained by your agency in an
electronic format please produce the records in the original electronic
format in which they were created or received. See §119.01(2)(f), Florida
Statutes.
Please provide only those records for inspection that do not
require extensive use of information technologies or extensive staff time or
both in excess of 15 minutes. Please take note of �119.07(4)(a)3.(d) Florida
Statues and if you anticipate that any records exist, the production for
inspection of which will require extensive use of information technologies or
extensive staff time or both in excess of 15 minutes, then please advise me
of the cost you anticipate to be incurred by your agency prior to incurring
this cost.
If you anticipate the production for inspection of these public records to
exceed $1.00 please notify me in advance of you incurring the cost with a
written estimate of the total cost. Please be sure to itemize any estimates so
as to indicate the total number of pages and /or records, as well as to
distinguish the cost of labor and materials.
I hereby reserve all rights granted to me under the Florida
Constitution and Florida Statutes.
All responses to this public records request should be made in writing to the
following email address: chrisohareaulfstream (alamail.com
I wish to examine the public record that is any record of Mr. Thrasher
enforcing or attempting to enforce the regulations made into law by the

or any property in the Town of Gulf Stream.
Sincerely,
Chris O'Hare
