I want to make some clarifications.
The changes I proposed are in the INITIATION of a complaint, as far as I know this is entirely under the control of COMMUNITY STANDARDS, not the individual CDDs etc. All complaints currently go typically by phone to the Community Standards office, and community standards then investigates these complaints.
The charge for registering a complaint and the need to personally present the complaint are aimed to limit overuse of the system by what is commonly referred to as "trolls", and was modified to maintain anonymity.
I do not think IMHO) there would be a legal challenge, as the current system is just the way it is currently being done, and this would be a change in the way it is being done. I do not recall seeing any paperwork that made the existing system of registering a complaint legally binding. As a matter of fact you can file by email, by letter, or in person now, BUT the Community Standards usually suggests not doing this as ALL of these records are public under Florida Law, a walk in verbal complaint, or form with on personal information would still maintain anonymity.
I have not had a chance to investigate when Community Standards meets or how to have the ideas I presented here formally presented for CS to look at.
Just my thoughts.
