I would like to reiterate that I do not wish to be in violation of any building codes. However, you will agree that there seems to be a communication problem between Mrs. Cook and I, as we do not seem to be on the same wave length I have two 40' X 8' mobile trailers licensed and tagged by the State of Florida Motor Vehicles Department. These trailers are parked neatly behind the existing building line, beside the Babcock Plaza when they are not being used to deliver Clay Ovens. Mrs. Cook implies that these mobile trailers fall under Sec. 6-84 as "Accessory buildings". Obviously, there is a difference of opinion and one of us is wrong. Would you please clarify if I need a uild'i Q permit for these vehicles? ~ I look forward to hearing from you by 10 June.
