County official warns on lax zoning enforcement in Santa Maria area
Johnson announced a new county position to bolster enforcement while commission members complained the county has failed to crack down on a Santa Maria subdivider. Mark Smith, Foxenwood Estates developer, was notified he is in violation for converting a sales office into a full real estate operation in a residential tract. Neighbors say the expanded office caused noise and traffic, and the panel eyed a one week delay for a proposed ordinance to curb tract offices. Deputy counsel said non criminal county cases aim to force compliance before possible suit.
