Siesta Seen
Early this year, the SKVMC board asked the
county to advertise for a management firm to
take on the upkeep instead of another con-
tractor like Championship.
MY MISTAKE
In the July 18 Siesta Seen, I made a mistake
in reporting the reason why Sarasota County
Code Enforcement Officer James Holderby
was at the Sandy Cove Avenue property of
Craig Siegel in late April when Siegel allegedly
threw a bucket of urine on Holderby, result-
ing in criminal charges against Siegel.
Holderby told me he had arrived on the prop-
erty that morning to follow up on a report that
Siegel was continuing to rent the 5174 Sandy
Cove Ave. house every week, a violation of
county code. Holderby and Siegel both had
appeared before a Code Enforcement Special
Magistrate the previous Friday, Holderby
said, for a Finding of Fact hearing related to
that case.
I confused that situation with another
Special Magistrate case involving debris
Siegel had strewn around the Sandy Cove
Avenue property.
Illegal parking has continued to be a problem on the right of way just north of the intersection of
Avenida de Mayo and Canal Road. File photo
