Property code violations
County officials cite property owners for issues such as substandard housing, illegal uses of buildings, property maintenance, abandoned appliances or furniture, construction without permits, and other issues that affect public safety and quality of life.
- A code violation notice has been issued for the property at 7198 Mesa Dr., Aptos, under case number NV25374, processed on 06/08/2026. The violation concerns the unpermitted construction of a retaining wall exceeding 6 feet in height, which was built without the necessary permits from the County of Santa Cruz. As a result, a Notice and Order has been issued to the property owner, and CUREC (code enforcement) fees will apply. Retaining walls over 4 feet typically require engineering and permits due to important safety and structural considerations, particularly on sloped properties.
New local businesses
- A new business named ARCADE FOUNDRY was registered at 339 Park Dr., Aptos, on June 2. The business was registered by David Pryor as an individual business.
