County refusing final permit due to "sins of a stranger" (Florida)
My county's landscape committee is refusing to issue me my final "build" permit to have a manufactured home be moved from a lot to the land. The land is residentially zoned and every permit has been properly pulled/issued to put in a septic tank, water well, dirt pad, and electricity.
For context for the next part, think of the land as a giant square. The previous owner took a chunk from the right corner of the square and built and sold a house. They then sold the rest of the land to me. Kind of think of the land looking like a reverse "L" shape.
The county is saying that the previous owner of the land cut down a tree without getting the proper landscape permit when they were doing land development. However, they were still issued a build permit. It is also worth noting that this land development was done on the portion that was NOT sold to me and this was done 3 or 4 years ago now (the cutting of the tree).
The county is saying because they "don't know" that I'm not the original owner or not (even though we have plenty of documented evidence saying we are two complete different entities such as titles, sales contract, and historical photos are a few examples) that they won't issue the permit. They have been asking for more "proof" that we are different people yet have been ignoring all attempts of communication from all my parties involved (me, husband, Manufactured company, and the person who pulls all the contracts for the manufactured home company.
How is this legal? And what can I do? I've been paying an interest only loan since Nov. 2021 that is supposed to turn to a "full mortgage" soon. I'm about to be homeless due to all this and just feel incredibly lost and hopeless.
