This is their way of controlling the jobs we can do. Not every location has a child, minor, or vulnerable adults. To even think they can enforce such a thing, is laughably ridiculous. The odds of them catching one of us doing this, is ridiculously low, unless you are on probation, and possibly have an ankle monitor. Sorry to say Palm Bay, I for one am not being restricted to warehouse work only, just because that’s what you want.

In reply to BH. humm, than what if the Business owner is the past sex offender? perhaps they give to little credit and don't think past sex offenders can own and operate a business

In reply to Florida Action Committee. There is no additional information in the Ordinance Book other than word definitions and the penalty.

In reply to Florida Action Committee. Thanks for the link. I don't see where it says that the company must disclose that they employ someone on the registry. It says that it is a misdemeanor for someone on the registry for an offense involving a child or vulnerable adult to work at many places. It is also a misdemeanor for a supervisor or business owner to send someone out who is on the registry for the type of offense above.

I wish I knew how to write a nice little review on this Bob Mcclure lawn care business….all i could find on google was R + C Lawncare, and if that’s it, they proudly employ a staff of a whole 2 people.

What a tool.

In reply to BH.

I believe this is the relevant ordinances:

It has to be looked into deeper, but I believe it concerns employers allowing employees to enter specific properties IN PALM BAY.

In reply to Florida Action Committee. Does a person have to live in Palm Bay to challenge this law? It seems to affect anyone who works in Palm Bay, or anyone who works for a company that happens to serve Palm Bay (whether or not the "offender" performs the on-site service). Am I reading it correctly?

maybe it’s time we start getting together in different counties and at least 2 or 3 of us a day go into the city where these bs laws are being created, call the police and ask them to meet us at home depot or lowes, etc.. and ask exactly what are the special city rules on sex offenders. lets help them tie up resouirces, thus there will be a slower response time for other matters. cause how is one to know what the rules are as they change faster than a traffic light for every city, town, etc… you drive through. so what if someone from say orlando that has a niche business goes to palm bay how are they expected to know the rules. what BS this has me sick. and PS. i do have a nich business and travel from jacksonville to naples. thus it could be me or anyone arrested on these little bs laws made to trap and arrest people!
