The database can be searched by county or by restaurant name. You will see which restaurants were fined and forced to close temporarily. Disclaimer: The Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation describes an inspection report as "a 'snapshot' of conditions present at the time of the inspection." On any given day, an establishment may have fewer or more violations than noted in its most recent inspection. An inspection conducted on any given day may not represent the establishment's overall, long-term conditions.

Developers sue Ormond Beach residents fighting Tomoka Reserve subdivision

ORMOND BEACH, Fla. – A fight over a proposed subdivision in an Ormond Beach neighborhood has moved from City Hall into the courtroom. The developers behind the proposed Tomoka Reserve subdivision are now suing 12 residents who have been opposing the project, which would bring up to 254 homes to the former Tomoka Oaks Golf Course — a 147-acre property that has been at the center of community debate for nearly five years.

Concrete plant proposal reignites Ormond Beach land-use debate

A property that once sat at the center of a major fuel terminal fight in Ormond Beach is back in the spotlight — this time over a proposed concrete mixing plant. Three industrial parcels along Hull Road and Hull Trail, totaling about 52 acres, are before the city again. The proposal would change their land-use designation to light industrial and utilities. Halifax Paving is also seeking to build a concrete mixing plant on its property. For Dave Smith, the debate feels familiar. Smith has lived in what is now known as the Ormond Lakes neighborhood for more than 50 years — and says the fight over what gets built across the street from his home never seems to end. "The fallout from a concrete plant would be very tough for us," Smith said. "So we're within a half a mile of the proposed location, very much against it. So many of us that live in here, almost all will line up behind us." Smith says his top concerns center on air quality and the potential mess a concrete plant could bring to the area. "My top concerns: air quality and the mess potentially coming with it," he said. Truck traffic is another major concern for nearby residents, who say they want the city to address the issue before moving forward with any approvals. "The traffic coming in and coming out — we have no traffic light here at Hull Road, and there's 620 roughly houses just in this one neighborhood called Ormond Lakes, but so many other close ones," Smith said. The city is proposing a less intensive industrial designation than the one that sparked the original Belvedere fuel terminal controversy. But for neighbors, the concern remains what kind of industrial activity could ultimately end up in their backyard. "We're ready. If this goes in front of the city and the county for the permits, we will pack the place," Smith said. The proposals are scheduled to go before the city's Planning Board on Thursday.

New Smyrna Beach cracks down on e-bikes, scooters

NEW SMYRNA BEACH — As electric bikes and motorized scooters become increasingly common on Florida streets and sidewalks, New Smyrna Beach is moving to limit where they can be ridden. City commissioners passed a revised ordinance at a meeting Nov. 10 to create tighter regulations and limit where riders can use e-bikes throughout the city. “The goal is not to prohibit or punish, but to make everybody work cohesively together to enjoy things safely throughout the community,” Chris Kirk, the city’s chief of police, said at the meeting. What does the new, revised ordinance outline? After an Oct. 1 community meeting on the issue, where many residents expressed concerns over e-bikes’ potential danger to pedestrians, Kirk took suggestions and input before presenting the proposed final ordinance to city commissioners Nov. 10. They passed it unanimously. The ordinance says riders can no longer use e-bikes, motorized scooters and what are sometimes referred to as micromobility devices, on sidewalks, bicycle paths or multi-use paths in restricted areas where they could be a hazard to pedestrians. Micromobility devices include one-wheel or uni-wheel devices. Restricted areas include Flagler Avenue and the city's mainland special parking districts, including Canal Street and the surrounding downtown area.

Local ice cream shop expands with new location in Daytona Beach

Earlier this year, Lighthouse Ice Cream’s future hinged on finding a new home. Now, just six months after relocating in Ponce Inlet, the local business has two places to call its own. Together, owners Kim Canny and Heather Highfield have expanded the brand to Daytona’s Beach Street, bringing its familiar Hershey’s scoops and a little soda fountain nostalgia to the former Neighborhood Scoop storefront. The new shop, located at 228 S. Beach St., was warmly welcomed last month with a late October ribbon-cutting ceremony and grand opening celebration downtown. “It’s been busy, but we managed to pull it off. We had great support from the community, our friends and our family. Even Ponce Inlet’s mayor, Lois Paritsky, joined us, which was super nice,” Canny said. “… So, it went really well.” Why did Lighthouse Ice Cream expand? The expansion, months in the making, grew partly out of necessity, Canny and Highfield explained. After more than four years across from the historic Ponce Inlet Lighthouse & Museum, the owners were informed last November that their lease would not be renewed. The news prompted their move to a far smaller Ponce Inlet space in front of Hidden Treasure Rum Bar & Grill

Daytona Beach Eyes Homes on NASCAR's 191-Acre Overflow Lot Near Speedway

A sprawling patch of grass that NASCAR has used for overflow parking during Speedway events for decades could soon become home to apartments, townhomes or even a scaled-down version of One Daytona. The roughly 200-acre property sits between Clyde Morris Boulevard and Jimmy Ann Drive in Daytona Beach, and its owners are now asking the city to let them build something permanent there instead of just parking cars a few times a year.

Flagler County Considering Special Taxing District for Sheriff’s Budget to Counter Amendment 3 Funding Drop

The Flagler County Commission is discussing the creation of a special taxing district to pay for policing countywide and prevent a cratering of revenue for law enforcement and the county jail. It would still be a property tax. But it would be its own line item, similar to the property tax in place now for Flagler County’s Environmentally Sensitive Land program.
