Richard Heene and his family have moved to the Lakewood Ranch area of Manatee County. The Heenes are reportedly moving in with family.
"Balloon Boy" drew international attention last year after the Heenes reported their young son was aboard a helium balloon which floated across the landscape in Fort Collins, Colorado. The whole thing was a hoax and Richard Heene pleaded guilty to related felony charges.
Heene served a 30 day jail term while his wife Mayumi pleaded guilty to filing a false report and served 20 a day jail term.
Colorado officials say the Heenes' probation has been transferred to Florida. The terms of their probation include making regular monthly payments toward $48,000 in restitution.
As a felon, Heene was required to check in with the Manatee County Sheriff's Office when he arrived in Florida and have his picture taken for a mug shot.
The Heenes will live in a gated section of Waterlefe Golf and Country Club.
