Siesta Seen Later on Monday, Keiderling spoke with Wendall Jacobsen, the new SKVA president. As a result, she will be a guest at the July 1 meeting of that organization, which will begin at 8:30 a.m. at the Daiquiri Deck Raw Bar in Siesta Village. ENFORCING THE CODE Since Sarasota County Code Enforcement Officer John Lally came back to work on Siesta Key in late April following medical leave, he has been busy writing up all sorts of viola- tions, from illegal signs to illegal rentals, he told members of the Siesta Key Association (SKA) during their June 5 regular meeting. "The merchants think there are no rules," he said. "Most of 'em know they're still not allowed to have [certain types of signs and banners], but they still try to put 'em out and get away with it," he added, especially on nights and weekends when no regular Code Enforcement staff patrols the key. Furthermore, Lally told the approximately 20 members present, "The illegal rentals are going absolutely crazy." Just as he mentioned to me before the start of a May 23 Code Enforcement Special Magistrate hearing, he pointed out to the SKA audience that he has been dealing with 15 cases. Just County Code Enforcement Officer John Lally talked about parking issues during the May 2, 2013, Siesta Key Association meeting, too. File photo Sarasota News Leader June 13, 2014 Page 71
