Franklin County will hold a series of workshops beginning this week to discuss code enforcement around the county.
For years the county commission has considered hiring a code enforcement officer to enforce many of the county's building codes, but the position has never been created.
That has allowed for a lot of people to violate county rules with no repercussions unless they are turned in by another resident.
In April Franklin County Commissioners signed an agreement with the Apalachee Regional Planning Council to hold 5 workshops this year in communities in the unincorporated area of Franklin County like Eastpoint, St. George Island and Alligator Point.
The information from the meetings will be collected in a a report to help commissioners decided if creating a code enforcement position is necessary.
The first workshop will be held this Wednesday from 5 till 7 at the Eastpoint Fire Station at Vrooman Park.
That will be followed by workshops on St. George Island on November 3rd, Unincorporated Carrabelle on November 10th, Lanark Village on November 17th and Unincorporated Apalachicola on December the 1st.
The workshops are in-person and are open to the public.
