THAT IS CASE NUMBER 2025 DASH 4 4 6 PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1461 JOHNSON STREET.

AND FINALLY, THE ONE ITEM THAT IS BEING ADMINISTRATIVELY POSTPONED IS ITEM NUMBER 50, CASE NUMBER 2026 DASH 0 0 2 1 4, UH, PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2125 AVOCADO APP.
WE DO HAVE AN OUT OF ORDER LIST OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE SIGNED IN.
IF YOU HAVE NOT SIGNED IN YET, PLEASE, UM, SEE ONE OF THE CODE ENFORCEMENT, UM, INSPECTORS SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE YOU SIGN IN.
THE FIRST PERSON ON THE LIST IS, OR THE FIRST ATTORNEY ON THE LIST IS MR. NATHAN MULLOON FOR ITEM NUMBER 68.
BEFORE WE GET STARTED, UH, EVERYONE WHO IS IN CHAMBERS TODAY, IF YOU'RE GONNA BE MAKING TESTIMONY, PLEASE STEP FORWARD TO THE PODIUM AND SPEAK CLEARLY INTO THE MICROPHONE.
THE REASON BEING IS THIS IS RECORDED FOR RECORD.
AGAIN, STEP TO THE PODIUM, SPEAK CLEARLY INTO THE MICROPHONE.
NATHAN MULLOON ON BEHALF OF CHRIS PALADINO, YOU KNOW.
ALL RIGHT, INSPECTOR KELLER, THIS IS ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE FOR OUR RUNNING FINES.
WHAT UPDATES CAN YOU GIVE THE BOARD AS TO THIS MATTER? HE WASN'T SWORN IN, SO HE'S AN ATTORNEY.
HE'S AN ATTORNEY, SO HE DOESN'T NEED TO BE SWORN IN.
UH, WE HAD A, UH, A POOL THAT'S IN DISREPAIR.
HE, UM, AFTER QUITE SOME TIME, EVENTUALLY GOT A, A PERMIT TO, UH, FIX THE POOL.
[00:10:01]
DID A INSPECTION TODAY, UH, TO SEE HOW THINGS ARE GOING.SO THE, UH, THE FINE AS OF TODAY IS A $50 DAY FINE.
THE CITY STAFF'S GONNA RECOMMEND INCREASING THAT TO A HUNDRED DOLLARS PER DAY.
WE HAVE AN UNSECURED SWIMMING POOL LIFE SAFETY ISSUE.
UH, MR. MULLOON, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR, UH, FOR INSPECTOR, UM, KELLER, ANY COMMENTS TO THE BOARD? I DO KNOW, MY, MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE, UM, THE EVERYTHING IS IN PROCESS.
THE FENCE SHOULD BE INSTALLED.
I BELIEVE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE INSTALLED THIS WEEK, AND THERE WERE SOME DELAYS, AND IT SHOULD BE INSTALLED EITHER LATER THIS WEEK OR AT THE EARLIEST NEXT WEEK.
SO WE'D ASK TO KEEP THE FINE AT $50 A DAY, AT AT LEAST TO GIVE US THE TIME UNTIL, MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT ON MONDAY IS WHEN IT SHOULD BE INSTALLED AT THE LATEST, AND AS SOON AS IT'S IN, WE'LL CONTACT THE CITY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE IN COMPLIANCE AND GET DEEMED IN COMPLIANCE.
I WISH I'D SEE A PERMIT TO THAT.
I DON'T SEE EVEN A PERMIT APPLICATION TO THAT EFFECT.
THIS IS A LIFE SAFETY ISSUE, RIGHT? CORRECT.
WE, WE HAVEN'T, UM, SOMEBODY FROM ANYWHERE ALONG COULD WALK INTO THIS YARD AND FALL INTO THE POOL.
THEY COULD, THEY COULD WALK DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND, AND, UM, ACROSS THE YARD AND FALL IN THE POOL.
I, SO THESE ARE BIG PROPERTIES.
SO THAT'S WHY THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO INCREASE THE FINE TO A HUNDRED DOLLARS PER DAY.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? IS THERE A RESPONSE TO THAT? NO, I WOULD JUST, I WOULD ASK FOR, AGAIN, AT LEAST FIVE DAYS TO PUT THE FENCE IN, INSTALL IT.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THERE'S A, THERE'S A CONTRACTOR WHO'S DOING IT, AND THAT'S WHO IS THE DELAY IS.
WHEN WAS THIS ACTION STARTED, SIR? UM, THIS, THIS IS A, A 2024 CASE.
UM, THE ORIGINAL NOTICE WAS RIGHT, UH, OR THE NOTICE OF, ORIGINAL NOTICE OF HEARING WAS SENT ON DECEMBER 3RD, 2025, RIGHT.
AFTER GIVING HIM A SUBSTANTIAL TIME TO CORRECT WORKING WITH HIM.
UH, WITHOUT TAKING, BRINGING THEM TO CODE BOARD, AND I HAD TO RESORT TO BRING 'EM TO CODE BOARD.
SO, SIR, THE POINT GIVEN IS, IS THERE'S BEEN TIME, TIME GIVEN YOU'RE GIVEN TIME PRIOR TO COMES HERE.
TIME GIVEN SINCE I HAVE A QUESTION.
UM, YOU HAVEN'T EVEN APPLIED FOR A PERMIT.
I SAID THE, THE, THE, THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS NOT APPLIED FOR A PERMIT.
HAVING SAID THAT, IT'S GONNA TAKE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF DAYS.
IT, AGAIN, THAT IS NOT MY, UNDER MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE PERMIT IS IN, IS IN PROCESS, AND THERE'S A CONTRACTOR HIRED.
I WILL GET WITH MY CLIENT AND INSTRUCT HIM IF THERE'S NOT A PERMIT TO MAKE SURE THAT IS FILED TOMORROW SO THAT WE CAN GET THIS DEALT WITH.
I AGREE WITH THE ISSUE, ALTHOUGH SOMEBODY WOULD'VE TO BE TRESPASSING, VIOLATING A LAW, AND THEN SOMEHOW FALL INTO A POOL, THAT WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE.
SO YOU HAVE TO HAVE ONE, SOMEBODY BREAKING THE LAW AND TWO, SOMEBODY WHO CAN'T SEE WHERE THEY'RE GOING.
SO IF, IF THE CITY MAY RESPOND TO THAT, YES.
UH, THE CITY'S CONCERNED ABOUT A CHILD DROWNING.
AND THE SECOND THING I'D LIKE TO MENTION IS THERE IS AN OPEN PERMIT TO, UH, RESURFACE, UH, THE POOL AND TO INSTALL PAVERS.
HE INSTALLED A, A FENCE AROUND IT AND HE REMOVED IT.
AND IT WASN'T, UM, IN COMPLIANCE WITH CITY CODE.
IT WAS LIKE A TEMPORARY WIRE FENCING.
IT WAS A, A WIRE FENCING THAT DIDN'T MEET THE CODE.
HE NEEDS TO GET A PERMIT TO INSTALL A PROPER POOL BARRIER, BE IT A FENCE OR A POOL ENCLOSURE.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? JUST, UH, DO YOU HAVE A NUMBER FOR RECOMMENDATION? YES.
AGAIN, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO INCREASE THE $50 A DAY.
FINE TO A HUNDRED DOLLARS PER DAY.
I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION IN THE CASE, CASE NUMBER CE 2024 DASH 0 9 0 7 TO, UH, REINSTATE THE FINE OF $100 A DAY STARTING TODAY.
IT, IT WOULD BE INCREASE THE SUM FINE.
UH, IT'S ALREADY RUNNING AT 50 A DAY.
IT WOULD BE MOTION 21 IF THAT'S THE BOARD'S PLEASURE.
A MOTION THAT DECIDED PROVE AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CASE NUMBER CE 2024 DASH 0 9 7.
AFTER REMAINING IN NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE BOARD'S, PREVIOUS ORDERS IN THE FINE SHALL BE INCREASED FROM $50 A DAY TO A HUNDRED DOLLARS A DAY COMMENCING TODAY, AND SHALL ACCRUE EACH DAY.
THE VIOLATION CONTINUES AND SHALL REPORT IT AS A LIEN.
SECOND MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD BY MR. THIEL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION? NONE.
HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY
[00:15:01]
YAY.THANK YOU, SIR, FOR YOUR TIME.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 24, CASE NUMBER 2023 DASH 0 8 0.
PROPERTY'S LOCATED AT, UH, THREE 10 TO THREE 20 PHILLIPS STREET.
MR. FARROW, I SEE YOU ARE, UH, REPRESENTING OR YOU'RE HERE.
ARE YOU IN A OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS AN ATTORNEY? YES.
AND WHO DO YOU REPRESENT? BRIDGEWATER GROUP AT BREVARD.
UH, WE ARE HERE ON UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? THERE HAVE BEEN NO ADDITIONAL STEPS TOWARDS COMPLIANCE.
THEY HAD APPLIED FOR A PERMIT, BUT THAT APPLICATION HAS STALLED AND THERE'S BEEN NO DILIGENT EFFORT TO GET THAT PERMIT, PERMIT MOVING AHEAD TO ALLOW THE ASPHALT OR TO ADDRESS THE ASPHALT AND REMOVE IT AND PUT SOMETHING ELSE THERE.
WHAT IS THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION? THE CITY RECOMMENDS THAT THE BOARD STRIKE THE FINE AT $50 A DAY FOR EVERY DAY IN NON-COMPLIANCE.
MR. FERER, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR GERMAN OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UM, NO QUESTIONS, JUST COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD.
SO THIS IS AN OLDER CASE, HOWEVER, IN THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE CASE, THERE WERE SOME EASY MATTERS THAT WERE QUICKLY BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE.
THE ISSUE WITH THE ASPHALT IS IN PART, IF HE COULD JUST GO IN AND REMOVE THE ASPHALT, WE COULD PROBABLY HAVE HIM DO THAT TOMORROW.
THEY HAVE THE EQUIPMENT THAT IS, THAT IS WHAT THE BUSINESS IS ULTIMATELY IS A, A CLEARING COMPANY, LANDSCAPING AND CLEARING.
AND SO THAT WOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE.
BUT AFTER THE ASPHALT IS REMOVED, A TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY IS REQUIRED TO ADDRESS DRAINAGE TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S NOT POOLING ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
STANDING WATER LEFT FROM REMOVING THE ASPHALT.
AFTER COMPLYING WITH THE EASY STEPS, UM, THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY HAD DECIDED THAT HE WANTS TO BUILD A DIFFERENT BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY AND CHANGED SOME OTHER THINGS.
SO HE SUBMITTED A PLAN TO CHANGE THE SITE PLAN ALTOGETHER THAT WAS REJECTED.
I UNDERSTAND BACK IN MARCH, THE THE PLAN WAS NOT APPROVED.
THERE ARE STEPS THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN TO RESUBMIT THE PLAN, AND THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THAT.
IN ORDER TO DO THAT, THERE IS A GEOTECHNICAL SURVEY THAT HAS TO BE COMPLETED.
THE ENGINEERS ARE TELLING THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY THAT THE GEOTECHNICAL SURVEY SHOULD BE COMPLETED THIS MONTH, AND THEN THEY CAN GO BACK AND FINISH OUT THEIR PERMITTING PROCESS TO GO THE OTHER WAY.
IF THEY WERE TO SIMPLY ADDRESS THE VIOLATION BY REMOVING THE ASPHALT AND DOING THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY, WHAT'S GONNA END UP HAPPENING IS THEY'RE GONNA SPEND A BUNCH OF MONEY ON THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY, AND THEN THEY'RE GONNA PAY THE FEES TO HAVE THE CITY REVIEW THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY WHILE THEY ALSO SPEND A BUNCH OF MONEY ON THE GEOTECHNICAL SURVEY AND THE NEW SITE PLAN, AND THEN ASK THE CITY TO REVIEW ALL OF THAT AS WELL.
SO IT SEEMS LIKE A DUPLICATION OF UNNECESSARY EFFORTS TO THAT END.
SO WHAT I WOULD ASK IS THAT WE NOT ASSESS THE FINES TODAY, BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S JUST GONNA MAKE THE WHOLE PROJECT MORE EXPENSIVE.
AND I'VE BEEN COMING TO THESE MEETINGS NOW FOR ABOUT A YEAR ON THIS CASE, AND WHAT I'VE SEEN HERE IS THAT THE BOARD'S INTEREST IS TO GET COMPLIANCE.
IT'S, IT'S NOT REALLY AN INTEREST IN ASSESSING FINES FOR THE SAKE OF REVENUE, ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO WHAT I WOULD SAY IS TO GET COMPLIANCE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, I WOULD ASK THAT WE CONTINUE THIS OVER TO THE AUGUST 26TH MEETING, AND I'M INSTRUCTING MY CLIENT TO CONTINUE WITH THE GEOTECHNICAL SURVEY AND DOING ALL OF THAT.
BUT IN THE MEANTIME, ANY SMALLER POINTS THAT CAN BE ADDRESSED WITH THE CITY TO JUST GO AHEAD AND ADDRESS THEM INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL IT COULD ALL BE DONE AS A PACKAGE.
THAT WAY WHEN WE COME BACK IN AUGUST, WE CAN SHOW THE BOARD ADEQUATE PROGRESS.
AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO THAT, I WOULD SAY IF YOU CAN LIFT THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY REQUIREMENT AND YOU JUST WANT 'EM TO RIP OUT THE ASPHALT, WE CAN PROBABLY DO THAT BY THE END OF THE WEEK.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE PROGRESS THAT HE STATED? UM, HE, I GUESS HE'S DESCRIBING SOME BEHIND THE SCENES THINGS THAT I HAVEN'T BEEN MADE AWARE OF.
IF THEY'RE BUSY WORKING ON DIFFERENT, UM, PLANS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, UH, THAT I, I HAVEN'T BEEN UPDATED ON THAT, BUT THEY, THEY MIGHT BE DOING THAT.
DO YOU NEED A PERMIT TO DO ALL THE, TO GET A TOP OF LOGICAL SURVEY AND ALL THAT DONE AND AN ENGINEERING PACKAGE YOU, UM, FOR THE, FOR THIS CASE, UM, YOU KNOW, TO UNDO SOMETHING THAT WAS DONE WITHOUT A PERMIT.
IF IT DOESN'T CREATE STORMWATER RUNOFF ISSUES, THEN, YOU KNOW, IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, WE WOULD BE OKAY IF THEY PROVIDED A TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY AND WAS ODED AND THERE WAS NO ISSUES RELATED TO STORMWATER RUNOFF.
UM, AS A SUGGESTION, CAN WE JUST DO THE THING WHERE WE START THE FINE A DAY AFTER THE NEXT MEETING AND SO IF HE COMPLIES, IT JUST IS NOT A PROBLEM.
BUT IF THERE'S NO COMPLIANCE, THEN THE FINE STARTS, WE COULD JUST DO THAT AT THE NEXT MEETING.
IF THAT'S THE OBJECTION, WE WOULD JUST EXTEND IT TO THAT MEETING.
RIGHT? WE WOULD JUST, IF, IF THAT'S THE, IF THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO DO, WE WOULD JUST EXTEND TO THE NEXT MEETING.
IF THAT NEXT MEETING, IF THERE IS STILL NO COMPLIANCE, THE
[00:20:01]
FINE COULD START THEN.WHAT IS SHE RECOMMENDING? SHE'S RECOMMENDING STARTING A FINE NOW.
NOW, WHICH, WHAT AM I, WHICH NUMBER? FOR THE 11? YEAH, THAT WAS NUMBER 11.
WELL, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION CHAIR.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO ADD, SIR? UM, NO.
I WOULD JUST ASK THAT THE BOARD CONSIDER EXTENDED TO THE NEXT DEADLINE.
YES, YOU CAN MAKE A MOTION NOW.
UM, I MOTION THAT THE CITED PROPERTY AND ALL THE RESPONSE OF CE, OH, I LOST MY, UM, NUMBER 2 0 2 3 DASH OH EIGHT OH OH ZEROS.
UM, IT REMAINS IN NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE BOARD'S PREVIOUS ORDER AND THE DATE FOR COMPLIANCE.
UM, FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE BOARD'S PREVIOUS ORDER.
BE ASSIST AT $50 A DAY BEGINNING, UH, TODAY, SEVEN, EIGHT, UH, 26 FOR EACH DAY.
THE VIOLATIONS CONTINUE AND SHALL BE RECORDED AS A LIEN.
SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD OF MS. MS. FULTON AND A SECOND BY MR. TEAL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION BEFORE WE VOTE? HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
UH, WHAT WAS THE, HOW MANY YAYS? YAY.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 54, CASE NUMBER 2024 DASH 0 0 3 2.
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 8 8 6 PADDLE BOARD COURT.
BELIEVE WE HAVE A FEW ATTORNEYS HERE AND WE HAVE SOME, UM, PROPERTY OWNERS HERE.
IF EVERYBODY IS GOING TO SPEAK IN, UM, ANNOUNCE THEIR APPEARANCE OF THE RECORD MIGHT MAKE THIS QUICKER.
THIS, BECAUSE OF THE, UH, APPEAL OF THE PREVIOUS FINDINGS, THIS CITY IS GONNA RECOMMEND AN EXTENSION TO THE OCTOBER, UH, OR EXTEND TO TEN SIX TWENTY SIX.
TEN SIX, TEN SIX, TEN SIX, TWENTY SIX.
SO BASED ON THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION, DOES ANYBODY WANNA SPEAK TO THAT? AND ALONG I ATTORNEY WITH DEAN MEAD THE HEARING, UM, IN RA, I HAVE A QUESTION.
CAN JUST FOR POINT OF CLARIFICATION, WE REPRESENT THE, UM, PROPERTY OWNER.
CAN YOU VERIFY THAT IT'S OCTOBER 6TH, NOT THE SEVENTH.
'CAUSE WHEN I LOOKED IT UP ON YOUR, WELL, THE, WE, THE EXTENSION DATE IS TO THE SIXTH.
SO BASED ON THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION TO EXTEND ANY QUESTIONS, DISCUSSIONS, MAKE A MOTION.
MAKE A MOTION TO EXTEND THE CASE.
CE 2024 DASH 0 0 3 1 2 UNTIL OCTOBER THE SIXTH.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS BEFORE WE VOTE? IF NOT THOSE, THE BOARD VOTE.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 17, CASE NUMBER 2025 DASH 0 180 1 PROPERTY LOCATED AT 28 38 SARNO ROAD.
MR. ZEES, IS THAT YOUR CASE? OKAY.
INSPECTOR DURANT, THIS IS UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS OF THIS CASE? UH, YEAH, THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS MET, UH, PROGRESS.
I WAS ACTUALLY MET WITH HIM YESTERDAY TO GET SOME
[00:25:01]
PHOTOS.UH, HE'S GOTTEN SEVERAL MORE DUMPSTERS, UM, OUT OF THERE.
THE ENTIRE EAST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY IS, UM, IS ALMOST, ALMOST, UH, TOTALLY CLEAR.
IF YOU LOOK AT THOSE BOTTOM, BOTTOM PHOTOS, THOSE BOTTOM TWO PHOTOS THAT'S GOING AROUND THE CURVE OF THE PROPERTY IN THE BACK, UH, HEADED TO THE WEST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
SO HE, HE'S MADE HIS WAY TO THE WEST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
SO THE CITY'S RECOMMENDING TO EXTEND THE COMPLIANCE DATE TO OCTOBER, UH, 6 20 26.
MR. ZE, DO YOU HAVE ANY, UH, QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR DURANT OR ANY COMMENTS ON BOARD? NO.
UH, PHILLIPS EAST REPRESENTING DON BELL INCORPORATED.
WE, UH, CONCUR WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY STAFF.
ANY QUESTIONS, MR. CHAIRMAN? YES, SIR.
CASE NUMBER CE 2025 DASH 0 180 1.
THAT'S BOARD EXTEND THE COMPLIANCE DATE UNTIL OCTOBER THE SIXTH, 2026.
I'LL SECOND MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD BY MR. THIEL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS MATTER? IF NOT, HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
WHAT WAS THE NUMBER ON HERE? 17.
CASE NUMBER 2024 DASH 0 9 6 2.
PROSPECT F OVER HERE FOR THE
AND SIR, UH, IF YOU CAN ANNOUNCE, UM, YOUR NAME AND HOW YOU'RE AFFILIATED WITH THE PROPERTY.
I REPRESENT, UH, CRANE CREEK WEST LLC.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? THERE HAS BEEN NO SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS SINCE, SINCE THE FINE STARTED.
WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDATION OR THE POSITION OF THE CITY TO CONTINUE FINDING THE PROPERTY? UM, MR. HENDERSON, UH, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR ANDRE OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? I DO HAVE COMMENTS.
UM, THE ACCESSORY STRUCTURE THAT FORMS THE BASIS OF THE ALLEGED VIOLATION IN THIS MATTER ARE DOCKS OR SLIPS THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT NEAR THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, UH, BUT WHICH ARE NOT IN ANY WAY ATTACHED TO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
UH, THE SLIPS ARE LOCATED ENTIRELY IN SOVEREIGN SUBMERGED LAND THAT IS OWNED BY THE STATE.
JUST FOR PURPOSES OF BACKGROUND, THE CITY ASKED, THERE WAS A STRUCTURE ON THE PROPERTY.
IT WAS SOUND, IT WAS STRUCTURALLY SOUND.
IT WASN'T IN VIOLATION OF ANY CODE.
HOWEVER, INDIVIDUALS WERE TRESPASSING ON THE PROPERTY UTILIZING IT IN A FASHION THAT THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN UTILIZING IT.
THE CITY ASKED MY CLIENT TO TEAR DOWN THAT STRUCTURE.
SO, SO THAT'S KIND OF WHERE WE, UH, GOT TO THIS POINT.
UM, WHAT WE ARE NOW, WHERE WE'RE NOW AT, IS THAT THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION REQUIRED THAT THESE, UH, DOTS BE RECONSTRUCTED IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN AND STAY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PERMITTED MARINA THAT IS THERE.
UH, AND THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASE REQUIREMENTS AS IT PERTAINS TO EIGHT OF THE SLIPS, THE FDEP HAS APPROVED THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASE.
AS IT PERTAINS TO THE OTHER SLIPS, WHICH I BELIEVE IS 13, UH, WE ARE AWAITING ON THE APPROVAL FROM THE F-D-P-F-D-E-P AS IT PERTAINS TO THE SCOPE OF THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASE.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SUBMITTED AND DONE, UH, IN ORDER TO GET THE APPROVAL AND THAT THE APPROVAL SHOULD BE FORTHCOMING WITHIN 90 DAYS OR SO.
THE ISSUE IS THAT THE SCOPE OF THE THE APPROVAL IS GOING TO DICTATE WHAT IS ULTIMATELY GOING TO BE BUILT ON THE PROPERTY, WHICH, DEPENDING ON THE SCOPE OF THE FD P'S APPROVAL AND THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASE, THE CLIENT OF MINE IS EITHER GOING TO BUILD A COMMERCIAL MARINA, UH, OR POTENTIALLY BUILD RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS ON THE PROPERTY.
HOWEVER, UNTIL MY CLIENT KNOWS THE SCOPE OF THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASE AND WHAT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE FDEP, IT CANNOT NECESSARILY PLAN FOR WHAT TYPE OF STRUCTURE OR BUILDING, UH, TO CONSTRUCT ON THE PROPERTY.
SO WE'RE IN A SITUATION WHERE WE'RE SIMPLY WAITING ON THE FDEP SO THAT WE CAN PLAN CONSTRUCTION ACCORDINGLY.
UNFORTUNATELY, WE'RE GETTING FINED $50 A DAY.
WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE'RE ASKING THAT THESE FINES BE ABATED OR SUSPENDED UNTIL WE GET THAT APPROVAL BACK.
SO THEN WE CAN COME SUBMIT THE PLANS TO THE CITY ARCHITECTURAL PLANS AND BUILD WHAT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FDA.
[00:30:01]
APPROVAL IS EITHER A COMMERCIAL MARINA OR POTENTIALLY RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS. THAT'S THE PLAN.WE BELIEVE THAT THOSE WILL BE VERY BENEFICIAL TO THE CITY.
UM, AND THAT'S ALL WE'RE ASKING FOR.
WE WANT SOMETHING OUTSIDE IN 90 DAYS SO THAT WE CAN SUBMIT THOSE PLANS AS OPPOSED TO PIECEMEALING CONSTRUCTION OF THIS PROPERTY.
'CAUSE PLANS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED, YOU KNOW, WE'VE LOOKED INTO DOING A VERY SMALL STRUCTURE THAT COULD TIE INTO A BIGGER PROJECT.
BUT IDEALLY IN AN IDEAL WORLD, WE COULD WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE STATE OF FLORIDA IS GOING TO ALLOW FOR US ON THESE 13 OTHER DOCKS IN ORDER TO BUILD THE ENTIRE PROJECT ALL AT ONCE, SUBMIT ALL THOSE ARCHITECTURAL DOCUMENTS TO THE CITY.
WE'VE HIRED, UH, WE'VE ALSO HIRED ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS.
WE HAVE, UH, I BELIEVE IT'S BRANDED CONSTRUCTION ON BOARD THAT HAS BEEN WORKING ON PLANS FOR THE SMALLER, BUT WE'LL BE WORKING ON THE OVERALL PROJECT, UH, WHEN WE GET THAT APPROVAL FROM THE FDEP.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I HAVE A QUESTION.
UM, ARE ANY OF THE SLIPS BEING USED NOW OR ANYBODY PARKING ANYTHING AT THE SLIPS NOW? NO, SIR.
AND AGAIN, THE SLIPS ARE ENTIRELY LOCATED WITHIN THE, THE LAND OWNED BY THE STATE OF FLORIDA.
THEY'RE NOT IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO THE ACTUAL UPLAND PROPERTY.
WELL, WHERE'S IF THEY, IF THE CLIENT YOUR CLIENTS ARE REPRESENTING DOESN'T OWN IT, WHERE'S THE BEEF? YOU, YOU'RE LEASING CORRECT? WE LEASE, WE LEASE THIS PROPERTY FROM THE, FROM THE FDP.
THEY, THEY ARE ON RECORD AS THE OWNER BECAUSE OF THAT LEASE? CORRECT.
ON ONE SIDE HE'S SAYING IT'S NOT OUR DOCKS ON THE OTHER SIDE.
HE'S SAYING WE'RE GONNA DEVELOP THE LAND TO MAKE IT OUR DOCKS.
THE OTHER THING IS THAT THE FINDINGS OF THIS HEARING HAS ALREADY BEEN SET.
THE FACTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN SET.
THERE'S ALREADY BEEN A FINDING THAT THERE'S A VIOLATION AND THEY HAD 30 DAYS TO APPEAR THAT THAT IS PASSED.
WHERE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TODAY IS WHETHER THAT FINE SHOULD RUN BASED ON, UH, PROGRESS.
SO WE'VE HAD MANY, MANY EMAILS AND COMMUNICATION THROUGHOUT, UH, THE CITY WITH THE RESPONDENT AND HIS REPRESENTATIVES ABOUT THIS SITUATION, WHICH ALL STARTS WITH A SITE PLAN.
UH, HE GOT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE AND PUT OUT THOSE DOCKS AND REBUILT THEM.
IT REQUIRES A CONDITIONAL USE FROM THE CITY ALL BEFORE ANY OF THIS HAPPENED.
THESE ARE ALL BRAND NEW DOCKS.
UM, THE DOCKS THAT ORIGINALLY WERE THERE WERE DETERIORATED AND THEY REPLACED THEM WITHOUT PERMITS.
THEY REPLACED THEM WITH A PROPERTY THAT IS NOT DEVELOPED.
THESE ARE CONSIDERED ACCESSORY STRUCTURES.
IN ORDER TO HAVE AN ACCESSORY STRUCTURE LIKE A MARINA OR A DOCK, YOU HAVE TO FIRST HAVE PRIMARY STRUCTURE ON THIS LOT THAT, THAT REQUIRES A SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN, WHETHER IT BE CONDOS OR AN OFFICE BUILDING, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO, IT'S GONNA REQUIRE PARKING, DRAINAGE, LANDSCAPING, CONSTRUCTION.
ALL OF THAT HAS NOT BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE CITY FOR REVIEW.
THEY DID SUBMIT BUILDING PERMITS, BUT THOSE BUILDING PERMITS CAN'T MOVE FORWARD UNTIL YOU GET A SITE PLAN APPROVED FOR WHAT YOU PLAN ON DOING THERE.
AND AS MUCH AS WE TRIED TO EXPLAIN THAT TO THE RESPONDENTS, THEY EITHER, IT EITHER IS A DISCONNECT OR THEY JUST HAVEN'T HIRED THE RIGHT PEOPLE TO FIGURE IT OUT.
UM, SO THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO CONTINUE RUNNING THE FINE UNTIL THEY GET THAT SITE PLAN MOVING.
WHERE DOES, UH, FEP STAND IN TERMS OF TIME? IN 90 DAYS, YOU SAID 90, BUT HOW LONG BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY COME UP WITH A RULING? ONE WAY OR ANOTHER? WE'RE LOOKING THAT WE SHOULD HAVE THE SUBMERGED LAND LEASES APPROVED WITHIN 90 DAYS.
AND THAT WILL GIVE US, OH, SORRY.
UM, SO YOU, HOW CAN YOU GET A PERMIT ON, SO YOU CAN'T GET A PERMIT ON ANYTHING TO YOU OR ACTUALLY HAVE A LEASE ON IT, WHICH IS ANOTHER FACTOR? YEAH, THEY DON'T HAVE THE LEASE, BUT THEY HAVE THE DOCKS.
BUT THEY CAN'T, IS, AM I CORRECT IN SAYING THEY CAN'T BUILD ANYTHING ON, ON, THEY DON'T ON LAND.
THEY DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO YET THAT, THAT'S MY POINT.
YES, THE DOCKS ARE THERE, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE THE LAND LEASE EITHER, SO, OKAY.
AND, AND IF I CAN CORRECT THE RECORD, WE DO HAVE A SUBMERGED LAND LEASE FOR THE EIGHT DOCKS.
THERE IS, WE'RE WAITING ON THE OTHER 13 DOCKS.
THERE'S TWO PARCELS OF PROPERTY RIGHT THERE THAT ARE OWNED BY MY CLIENT.
WE DO HAVE A SUBMERGED LAND LEASE, BUT IT'S GONNA BE, THE TWO PROPERTIES ARE GONNA BE DEVELOPED TOGETHER, UH, IN TERMS OF THE COMMERCIAL MARINA OR THE RESIDENTIAL CONDO.
SO WE DO HAVE A SUBMERGED LAND LEASE ON EIGHT OF THE DOCKS.
BUT YOU STILL CAN'T GET A PERMIT
[00:35:01]
'CAUSE YOU DON'T, ON ALL OF IT, YOU DON'T, YOU'RE NOT LEASING CURRENTLY LEASING ALL OF IT.THAT'S ALL I, THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.
THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT LICENSES PARCELS THOUGH.
WE'RE JUST WAITING ON THE OTHER ONE.
AND WHATEVER DOCKS WERE THERE, SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THERE BECAUSE THERE'S NO DEVELOPED PROPERTY.
NOW THERE WAS A DEVELOPED PROPERTY AT ONE POINT, BUT THOSE DOCKS SHOULD HAVE BEEN REMOVED AT THE TIME IT WAS DEMOLISHED.
DEMOLISHED AT THE REQUEST OF THE CITY, CORRECT.
ANY OTHER, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO.
IS THERE A MOTION, MR. CHAIRMAN? YES, SIR.
SO JUST, JUST TO BE CLEAR, IF THE BOARD ISN'T GOING TO STAY THE FINE, THEN THERE'S NO ACTION REQUIRED? NO ACTION REQUIRED.
JUST THE BOARD, THE FINE RUNS, IT'S, I THINK CONTINUE THE FINE.
WHICH, WHICH NUMBER IS THAT? THERE, THERE'S NO ACTION BY THE BOARD.
UNLESS SHE PLAN ON STAYING THE FINE.
UM, MR. CHAIRMAN, I THINK WE JUST, UH, YES, GO ON ABOUT OUR BUSINESS.
I'M NOT SURE IF THAT WAS, IF HE'S IN, I GUESS HE'S NOT WITH HIM.
ALRIGHT, NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 23.
CASE NUMBER 2022 DASH 0 0 8 6 0.
PROPERTY LOCATED AT THREE FIVE, UH, 3 5 1 0 APLIN WAY.
I HAVE A RONNIE HOLMAN INSPECTOR GERMAN.
THIS IS, UH, UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? THERE HAS BEEN NO ADDITIONAL PROGRESS.
HOWEVER, THE, UH, CITY RECOMMENDS PAUSING THE FINE AT THE CURRENT AMOUNT OF $9,125.
MR. HOLMAN, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR GERMAN OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? NO, I DO NOT.
ANY QUESTIONS? ANYONE HAVE A MOTION? 57 6.
THIS, THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 22, RIGHT? SO IT'S THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION THAT WE'RE GONNA STAY THE FINE AT 91 25.
I MAKE A MOTION THAT ALL THOSE CITED PROPERTY AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CASE NUMBER CCE 2022 DASH 0 8 6 0 REMAINS IN NONCOMPLIANCE WITH BOARD FREE ORDER.
PAUSE, PAUSE FROM ACCRUING AND REMAIN AT THE CURRENT AMOUNT OF THE $9,125 UNTIL THE HEARING SECOND.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THE MATTER? IF NOT, HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 56, CASE NUMBER 2023 DASH 0 0 3 1 3.
PROPERTY IS LOCATED 25 26 THROUGH 25 38 PINEAPPLE AVE.
SIR, CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO.
AND WHAT IS YOUR NAME? JOEL ESPINO.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? THE PROPERTY MANAGER FOR THE OWNER, UM, OFFICIAL HAROLD.
UM, WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THIS MATTER? UM, THIS IS A RESCISSION REQUEST, SO CUSTOMARY FOR THE APPLICANT WHO'S MADE THE, UH, REQUEST TO START.
UH, AND THANK YOU BOARD FOR TAKING YOUR TIME AND LISTENING TO US TODAY.
IF I MAY, I WANT TO SUBMIT SOME P BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS OF THE, THE PROPERTY.
UM, MY CLIENT'S CONTENTION IS, YOU KNOW, UNDERSTANDING THAT WE WERE AT FAULT FOR HAVING A VIOLATION OF WATER HEATERS ON THE PROPERTY WITHOUT PULLING A PERMIT.
UM, NOW THERE HAS BEEN VARIOUS AMOUNT OF IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PROPERTY, SUCH AS HURRICANE IMPACT WINDOWS.
WE PAINTED THE BUILDING, UM, PUT IN NEW ACS IN VIRTUALLY EVERY UNIT.
UH, AND ALL OF THOSE WE FO FOLLOWED PROPER PROCEDURE, PULLING PERMITS AND,
[00:40:02]
AND CLOSING 'EM IN A TIMELY MANNER.UH, SO WE WANTED THE BOARD TO CONSIDER A RESCISSION, NOT COMPLETELY WAIVING THE FINE, BUT HOPEFULLY A REDUCTION, UH, TO ABOUT 30% OF THE FINE, WHICH WOULD BE ABOUT $5,640, I BELIEVE.
UM, AND THE OWNER IS PREPARED TO MAKE THOSE PAYMENTS TO GET THE, GET THE CODE COMPLETELY WIPED AWAY AND THE LIEN RESCINDED AMONGST PAYMENTS.
HAR OR OFFICIAL, HAROLD, DO YOU HAVE ANY, UH, COMMENTS AS IT RELATES TO THE RECI? UM, THE CITY HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICANT'S, UH, APPLICATION AND SOME RECENT INFORMATION THEY PROVIDED.
UH, THE CITY, THE, THE RESCISSION REQUEST IS A, A CODE ENFORCEMENT CASE FROM EARLY 2023 AND DIDN'T COMPLY COMPLETELY UNTIL JANUARY, 2026, WHICH IS TWO AND A HALF YEARS LATER.
IT INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT LIGHT SAFETY VIOLATIONS SPECIFIC TO THE ASSOCIATED ELECTRICAL WORK, UH, FOR WATER HOOKUP, UH, HOOKUPS TO WATER HEATERS THAT WERE OUTSIDE AND NOT DESIGNED FOR OUTSIDE, UH, BREAKER BOXES, AIR CONDITIONING UNITS, AND CERTAIN OTHER ELECTRICAL INFRASTRUCTURE INFRASTRUCTURE INSIDE THE UNITS.
THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY, SILVER PINEAPPLE, LLC, HAS BEEN IN, UH, ESTABLISHED SINCE 2020 AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN FULLY AWARE OF ANY REQUIREMENTS FOR PERMITTING AND CONTRACTING.
YET SIGNIFICANT ELECTRICAL WAS COMPLETED WITHOUT EITHER, UM, THEIR LIFE SAFETY CONCERNS LED THE BOARD TO INITIATE A $100 DAY FINE ONE YEAR AFTER THE CASE INITIATION.
ONE YEAR FAILED INSPECTIONS, TIME LAPSES AND UNPAID PERMIT FEES CONTINUED EVEN AFTER THE FINE WAS PAUSED IN OCTOBER, 2024.
AND THEN THE FINE REMAINED PAUSED FOR OVER A YEAR BEFORE FULL COMPLIANCE.
ADDITIONALLY, THERE WERE CONCERNS RELATED TO CITY DOCUMENTS BEING ALTERED THAT CANNOT BE OVERLOOKED.
AS OUTLINED ON PAGE THREE, THE STAFF REPORT, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO DENY THE REQUEST AND FOR THE LIEN TO REMAIN AT THE CURRENT AMOUNT OF $19,200.
THERE ARE THREE POSSIBLE MOTIONS FOR BOARD CONSIDERATION, AND THEY ARE LISTED ON PAGE FOUR OF THE STAFF REPORT.
JUST SO WE'RE CLEAR, SO YOU'RE ASKING THE BOARD TO REDUCE THE FINE DOWN TO $13,440, IS THAT CORRECT? NO, I'M SORRY.
WE, WE WERE HOPING TO REDUCE THE FINE TO 5,600 AND I BELIEVE IT'S $5,760.
IT'S 30% OF THE CURRENT LIEN, I BELIEVE.
THANK YOU THAT, ANY QUESTIONS? SO EVERYBODY WAS BRIEFED PRIOR, YOU SAW THE I I READ THE BRIEF, YES.
ALL WHOSE IDEA WAS IT TO ALTER THE CITY DOCUMENTS? SO WE, WE DID HIRE SOMEONE THAT WE THOUGHT WAS SUBMITTING FOR A RESCISSION AND CLOSING THE VIOLATIONS.
ULTIMATELY, THEY DID NOT DO THAT.
AND THEY SUBMITTED TO US DOCUMENTATION THAT WE BELIEVED WAS TRUE, SAYING THAT WE WERE IN COMPLIANCE FINALLY, AND THAT WE COULD NOW PAY A LOWER FINE.
ONCE DISCUSSING WITH MARK AND INSPECTOR, UH, KELLER, WE REALIZED THAT THAT WAS NOT TRUE AND IMMEDIATELY JUMPED INTO ACTION TO PROPERLY CLOSE THE VIOLATION AND NOW FORMALLY AND PROPERLY APPLY FOR, UH, RESCISSION.
YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF ONE OF THOSE THINGS, IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DONE RIGHT, YOU DO IT YOURSELF KIND OF THING.
UM, DID, ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH WHAT DAY OF THE WEEK? MAY 7TH WAS MAY 27TH RATHER, THE DATE ON THE ALTER DOCUMENT? NO, I, I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE, IT'S A TUESDAY.
AGAIN, THAT'S SOMETHING I WOULD BE UNAWARE OF.
WELL, YOU'RE THE PROPERTY MANAGER, YOU'RE, YOU'RE CORRECT.
AND DUE DILIGENCE AND, AND, AND I MIGHT HAVE, I SHOULD HAVE EXERCISED MORE DUE DILIGENCE.
I I DO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THAT.
UM, AND THE WAY I CHOSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY, THAT WAS BY TAKING OVER THE PROCESS DIRECTLY.
I WAS ACTUALLY THE ONE THAT CREATED THE ACCOUNT THAT FORMALLY APPLIED FOR THE FORMAL PERMIT AND CLOSED EVERYTHING MYSELF.
I DIDN'T ENTRUST IT UNTIL A CONTRACTOR'S HANDS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
MY QUESTION IS, YOU SAID YOU APPLIED FOR THE PERMIT? SO WHEN I SAY I APPLIED AS I CREATED THE PORTAL, I HAD THE, THE PLUMBER SUBMIT TO ME ALL THE PAPERWORK, BUT I DIDN'T ENTRUST ANYONE TO SUBMIT THE PAPERWORK INTO THE PORTAL IN THE CITY.
SO HOW, HOW DO YOU, HOW CAN YOU SUBMIT FOR A PERMIT IF YOU'RE NOT THE CON NOT A CONTRACTOR? OKAY.
[00:45:01]
CORRECT ME.UH, I BELIEVE THAT A PERMIT RUNNER COULD SUBMIT AND CREATE AN ONLINE PORTAL WHERE THEY COULD SUBMIT DOCUMENTS ON BEHALF OF THE CONTRACTOR, WHICH THAT'S WHAT I DID.
BUT THE PERMIT WAS APPLIED FOR BY A LICENSED PLUMBER WITH THE CITY.
WHO'S THE, BUT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CONTRACTOR WHO IS THE CONTRACTOR? YES.
THE, THE, THE PERMIT WAS APPLIED AND SIGNED BY, I BELIEVE CLERK CLOSED PERMIT FAST.
THE LICENSE NUMBER OF THE PERMIT OF THE PLUMBER IS ON THAT FINAL PERMIT APPLICATION.
ALL I DID WAS CREATE THE ONLINE PORTAL AND MAKE SURE THAT THE PROCESS WAS SUBMITTED CORRECTLY AND I ROUND UP, I'D HAVE TO DEFER ALL, I'M CONFUSED.
I'D HAVE TO DEFER THAT ALL TO MARK.
WELL, I WONDER, ARE YOU THE REGISTERED AGENT FOR THIS COMPANY? NO, I'M JUST THE PROPERTY MANAGER.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? IS THERE A MOTION? MAY, MAY I ASK A QUESTION? WELL, I'M SORRY.
MARK, AM I CORRECT THAT AS FAR AS SUBMITTING A PERMIT APPLICATION ON BEHALF OF A CONTRACTOR THAT COULD BE A PERMIT RUNNER OR A PROPERTY MANAGER OR OWNER? OUR PERMIT, PREVIOUS PERMIT TECH SAYS YES.
SO I WOULD, I PERSONALLY DO NOT KNOW, BUT TAMMY HERE HAS PREVIOUSLY WORKED IN THE PERMIT AND YOU CAN'T.
SO, SO THAT WAS THE PROCESS THAT I ULTIMATELY FOLLOWED.
ONCE I SAW THAT THE PERMIT WAS NOT DONE AND SUBMITTED, I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DIDN'T SKIP A BEAT.
SO AS LONG AS YOU'RE EMPLOYEE OF THE OWNER.
FOR THE, THAT, THAT IS MY UNDERSTANDING FOR OR THE CON CONTRACTOR OR THE CONTRACTOR, CORRECT.
CONTRACTOR STILL TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE WORK.
IT'S JUST SOMEONE ELSE SUBMITTING THE PAPERWORK, RIGHT? CORRECT.
SO THE CONTRACTOR STILL PERFORMS THE WORK RESPONSIBLE.
IS THEIR LICENSE AND INSURANCE SUBMITTED INTO THE CITY? UM, I'M JUST SUBMITTING THE PAPERWORK ON THEIR BEHALF AS THE RES THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OWNER.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO MOTION.
PAGE FOUR OF YOUR STAFF REPORT GIVES YOU THREE SEPARATE MOTIONS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
AGAIN, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS DENIED.
OH, REALLY? CAN I HAVE A QUESTION? OKAY.
I WOULD LAST LIKE TO ASK MR. HAROLD, WHAT IS HIS REASONING FOR DENYING IT AS, AS PREVIOUSLY STATED IN THE OPENING COMMENTS? THIS CASE IS OVER TWO AND A HALF YEARS OLD.
RIGHT HERE IS, IS THIS, IS, ARE THESE PICTURES? EVERYTHING'S DONE AS, AS OF THE COMPLIANCE DATE.
THE ONLY OUTSTANDING MANNER IS THE FINE.
AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR TODAY.
SO DO WE HAVE A MOTION? SO THEY'RE ASKING FOR A TOTAL, THEY'RE ASKING FOR A PARTIAL, UH, UM, THEIR, THEIR, UH, REQUEST IS TO, IS FOR A PARTIAL FINE REDUCTION DOWN TO 5,007, $5,760, WHICH I BELIEVE IS EXACTLY 30% OF THE CURRENT FINE OR 70% OFF.
HOWEVER YOU WANT TO LOOK AT IT, CORRECT? YES, CORRECT.
I I, I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH ALTERING OFFICIAL RECORDS, THEREFORE MY RECOMMENDATION IS THAT WE, UH, FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT LIEN NUMBER CE 2023 DASH 0 0 3 1 3, THAT THE CODE BOARD RECOMMENDS THE CITY COUNCIL DENY THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST TO RESCIND OR REDUCE THE FINE BALANCE OF $19,200 AND THAT THE FINE BALANCE AMOUNT REMAIN AS A LIEN UNTIL PAID.
I HAVE A MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD BY MR. EXCUSE ME, MR. MOBA AND I SECOND BY MR. LUER.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? IF NOT, HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
ITEM NUMBER 51, CASE NUMBER 2026 DASH 0 0 2 3 8 PROPERTY LOCATED AT 31 56 NORTH HARBOR CITY BOULEVARD.
IF YOU'RE HERE ON THAT CASE, PLEASE COME FORWARD.
I HAVE BERNADETTE JOHNSON AND JOSEPH
[00:50:02]
WE'RE GONNA HAVE THAT.UM, UH, CITIZENS WHO HAVE A PROBLEM ON A COMPLAINT, WE'RE GONNA GET THIS PODIUM.
AND THE A QA MEMBERS, THEY'RE GOING BE WORKING ON RESOLVING THIS.
WE WANT TO SPEAK AT THAT PODIUM.
ALRIGHT, SIR, CAN YOU, UH, RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? UH, MY NAME IS ARTHUR PE AND I'M THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
AND MA'AM, CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO.
AND WHAT IS YOUR NAME? ETTE JOHNSON.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? I AM A TENANT LIVING THERE.
INSPECTOR, UH, KELLER, WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THIS NEW BUSINESS? UH, THIS IS THE CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION, UM, WITH SOME, UH, PARKING LOT LIGHTS THAT ARE NOT WORKING.
UM, THEY HAVE TRIED TO MITIGATE THAT BY PUTTING SOME, SOME SOLAR LIGHTS UP, UH, ON THOSE POLE LIGHTS.
AND THEY HAVE A PLAN TO, UH, UM, PERHAPS HAVE FPO UM, INSTALL THE LIGHTS WITH CONTRACT WITH FPO.
AND IF THAT DOESN'T GO THROUGH, I GUESS THEY HAVE ANOTHER PLAN B.
THE FIRST THING THEY NEEDED TO DO WAS GET A, A, A PROPER PROPERTY SURVEY OF THE PROPERTY.
I GOT AN EMAIL TODAY INDICATING THAT, UM, PRECISION LAND SURVEYING SHOULD HAVE THAT, UH, SURVEYED, UH, COMPLETED, UM, BY THE END OF THIS WEEK.
AND THAT WILL ENABLE ANY CONTRACTOR TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS.
NOW, UH, WE, I'M LOOKING AT THE, UM, THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION AND IT SAYS ELECTRICAL MAINTENANCE REQUIRED, AND IT ALSO HAS THE SITE PLAN ADHERENCE AND RESTRICTIONS REQUIRED.
HOW HAS IT VIOLATED THE SITE PLAN ADHERENCE? SO WHEN THE CONDOMINIUM, UH, WAS BUILT MANY YEARS AGO, IT HAD THESE LIGHTS ON, UM, ON THE SITE PLAN THAT WERE REQUIRED FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY.
UM, SO IT'S IN VIOLATION OF THE SITE PLAN AND IT HAS, UH, THESE ELECTRICAL LIGHTS HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. UM, YOU, YOU SAY THAT THEY HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. WHAT ARE THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS? I'M LOOKING AT PHOTOGRAPHS RIGHT NOW, BUT WHAT CAN YOU TELL US? THE LIGHTS AREN'T WORKING.
UM, THE LIGHTS THAT YOU DO SEE ON ARE THESE, UM, SOLAR POWERED LIGHTS THAT THEY INSTALLED TO MITIGATE THE ISSUE AND THE INTERIM, UM, UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY GET THE, THE, THE, UM, REQUIRED LIGHTS FIXED.
UM, THOSE SOLAR LIGHTS ARE, UH, I WAS OUT THERE LAST NIGHT PRETTY EFFECTIVE IN THE EVENING.
I SUSPECT THAT IF I WENT OUT THERE AT, UH, FIVE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING, THEY MIGHT NOT BE AS EFFECTIVE.
AND AS WE KNOW, UH, BATTERIES ARE GOING TO, UH, DEGRADE OVER TIME.
THEY NEED TO GET THE, UM, THE ELECTRICAL LIGHTS, THE WIRED ELECTRICAL WHITE LIGHTS, UM, REPAIRED OR WERE PLACED.
WHEN WAS THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION SENT OUT? UH, APRIL 23RD, 2026.
THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION WAS SENT TO THE MAILING ADDRESS PROVIDED BY, UM, SUNBIZ AND TO THE REGISTERED AGENT.
THERE WAS NO MAILING ADDRESS ON THE PROPERTY APPRAISER REPORT ON MAY 20TH, 2026 OF NOTICE OF HEARING WHERE THIS HEARING WAS SENT TO THE MAILING ADDRESS PROVIDED BY SUNBIZ AND TO THE REGISTERED AGENT.
AND ON MAY 28TH, 2026, THE, UH, THE CITY RECEIVED A GREEN CARD, UM, FOR THIS, UH, NOTICE OF HEARING, UM, UH, FROM THE REGISTERED AGENT.
UM, BUT THERE HADN'T BEEN NO GREEN CARD FROM THE HOA, UM, THEY DIDN'T RECEIVE NOTICE THAT THERE, THAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO SIGN FOR A, A, UM, HEARING.
UH, SO JUST FOR GOOD MEASURE, THE, UH, NOTICE OF HEARING WAS POSTED ON JUNE 25TH.
AND AT THAT SAME DAY I SPOKE TO ARTHUR OVER HERE AND HE WAS AWARE THE OF THE HEARING AND INDICATED HE WOULD SHOW UP.
WHAT'S THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION? THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO FIND THE RESPONDENT IN VIOLATION AND GIVE UNTIL AUGUST 25TH TO COMPLY.
UM, AND, AND THEN I, WELL, I REALLY DON'T SUSPECT THAT THEY'RE GONNA BE IN COMPLIANCE, BUT ON, ON THE 26TH, WE WILL GET AN UPDATE, UH, FROM THE RESPONDENT TO SEE WHERE THEY'RE AT AT THAT POINT.
BUT THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION AT THIS TIME TO FIND IN VIOLATION, IT'S CONJECTURE AND GIVEN UNTIL AUGUST 25TH TO COMPLY OR FIND OF THE $250 PER DAY, EACH STATED VIOLATION CONTINUES.
MR. PELERIN, DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR KELLER? I DO.
THIS PROPERTY WAS BUILT IN 1978.
THE INFRASTRUCTURE'S VERY OLD.
THE ELECTRICAL WAS BURIED UNDERGROUND FOR ME OR US TO, UH, REPAIR THE LIGHT FROM 1978.
IT WOULD, UM, REQUIRE US TO, UH, DIG UP OUR PARKING LOTS, UH, IN TWO DIFFERENT SPOTS, UM, TO PUT ALL NEW LIGHTING IN.
[00:55:01]
FLORIDA.POWER AND LIGHT HAS A PROGRAM WHERE THEY'LL COME IN AND INSTALL STREETLIGHTS WITHIN THE PROPERTY ITSELF, UH, MUCH LIKE GOVERNMENT, FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHTS, A BUREAUCRACY, AND THEY DON'T MOVE FAST.
UM, SO WE, UH, HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT SINCE AROUND, UH, OCTOBER OF 2025, UH, LATE LAST YEAR TO START THIS PROCESS.
UH, AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY.
UM, WE HAVE THE, UH, SURVEY WE'RE WAITING FOR FROM THE SURVEYOR TO COME BACK.
AT THAT POINT, WE WILL SUBMIT THAT TO FLOWER POWER AND LIGHT, AND THEY WILL GIVE US A CONSTRUCTION DATE RIGHT NOW.
UH, THE CONSTRUCTION DATE IS LOOKING LIKE OCTOBER, NOVEMBER.
MR. CHAIRMAN, RAY, I WILL SAY THIS AS WELL.
THE, UH, SOLAR LIGHTS THAT WE INSTALLED, UM, ARE NOT OUT AT FIVE IN THE MORNING.
I'M ACTUALLY IN INSOMNIA KNOCKING, AND I'M UP AT NIGHT WALKING AROUND A LOT.
THOSE ARE INDUSTRIAL SOLAR LIGHTS AND THERE'S 16,000 LUMENS.
I, I I, I'M HERE TO TELL YOU THAT OUR PROPERTY IS PROBABLY LIT UP BETTER THAN SOME OF THE STREETS HERE IN MELBOURNE.
UM, SO WE HAVE WIDOWS THAT LIVE THERE AND NOBODY HAS A PROBLEM WITH IT.
ALL THE OWNERS ON BOARD WITH US, 80% OF THE PEOPLE THAT OWN THE PROPERTY THERE LIVE THERE.
THEY'RE ALL BEEN MADE AWARE SINCE DAY ONE ON WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON TO INCLUDE IN, UM, THIS WOMAN'S, UM, OWNER, HER LANDLORD.
SO THEY'VE BEEN INVOLVED RIGHT ALONG IN WHAT'S GOING ON.
UM, SO I, I KIND OF DISMAYED THAT I'M EVEN HERE TONIGHT, QUITE FRANKLY, BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS.
QUESTION, CAN WE CLARIFY ONE THING? ARE YOU AN HOA OR A COA? WE ARE A COA, SIR.
MS. JOHNSON, DO YOU HAVE ANY, UH, COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSIDE? I DO THANK YOU FOR THE ALLOWING ME TO, YOU CAN CATCH UP WHEN SHE FINISHES.
THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO GO AHEAD.
I'M THE ONE THAT CALLED THE CODE DEPARTMENT ABOUT THESE LIGHTS BEING OFF.
SO IF I'M ALLOWED TO SPEAK FROM MY OWN VIEWPOINT OF WHAT'S GOING ON, I HOPE, IS THAT OKAY? YES.
SO I, I CALLED IT IN PROBABLY BEFORE MAY.
WHAT MR. KILNER SAID ABOUT APRIL, I THINK.
AND IN SHORT ORDER, BECAUSE I CODE, I CALLED THE CODE IN, WHICH IS MY RIGHT, OKAY.
FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
I'M ALLOWED TO DO THIS UNDER STATUTES THAT I CAN SAY, BUT OKAY, THEN, YOU KNOW, THAT'S OKAY.
I'VE BEEN LIVING THERE NINE AND A HALF YEARS.
CAN YOU USE THE MICROPHONE? SURE.
I'VE BEEN THERE NINE AND A HALF YEARS WITH THE SAME LANDLORD.
HE OWNS THE PROPERTY AND HE WOULD BE THE FIRST TO TELL YOU WHAT A, A GREAT TENANT I AM, BOTH IN PAYING THE RENT AND BEING THERE IN SHORT ORDER IN A WINDOW OF TIME THIS SMALL, AS SOON AS THE COBRAS CALLED IN AND KELNER SHOWED UP ON THE PROPERTY, THE HOA CALLED MY LANDLORD AND INCITED THIS RETALIATORY ACTION TOWARDS ME TO GET ME EVICTED.
I'VE BEEN THERE NINE, NINE AND A HALF YEARS.
I HAVE PROOF FROM MY LANDLORD IN TEXT MESSAGES THAT CAN I, CAN I STOP YOU? YES.
WE HAVE TO STAY ON TASK THAT TRYING TO YES.
THE PROBLEM IS, IS THAT THE ISSUE IS THE LIGHTING AND OKAY.
THEN GET TO THE LIGHT ISSUES WITH THEM IS OUTSIDE OUR SCOPE.
THERE'S TWO BUILDINGS ON THE PROPERTY FROM MY BALCONY.
NO, I'M SORRY, BUT I DISAGREE.
I I I BEG TO DISAGREE ON THIS.
AND I WILL NOT PARK IN AN UNSAFE AREA ON THE PROPERTY.
THERE'S PEOPLE THERE THAT PARK WHEREVER THEY WANT TO PARK.
AND I HAVE THAT RIGHT AS WELL, BUT THEY ARE NOT LIT.
I'M SAYING FROM WHERE I AM TO WALK UP AND DOWN TO MY UNIT.
I DON'T, I DON'T COME IN AT FIVE O'CLOCK AT NIGHT AND CLOSE MY DOORS.
I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO COME IN THERE 12 AT MIDNIGHT OR WHATEVER, AND FEEL SAFETY.
AND THEY, I'M TRYING TO STAY ON POINT WITH THIS, BUT IT ALL, IT IS ALL PART OF THE SAME SCHEME THOUGH.
AM I NOT ALLOWED TO CALL CODE ENFORCEMENT? YES, I AM.
ARE THEY ALLOWED TO EVICT ME? NO, THEY CAN'T.
IT MIGHT BE A CIVIL CASE, BUT THEY BLEND TOGETHER.
ARE THE SOLAR LIGHTS NOT WORKING IN THE AREA THAT YOU'RE SPEAKING OF? NO, THEY'RE NOT.
I MEAN, IT, THEY'RE SO, IT'S LIKE A POSTAGE STAND, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN'T, THERE IS NO LIGHT THERE.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY THINK THAT IT'S LIT.
I'D LIKE TO ASK A QUESTION, SIR.
SO THAT THE ASSOCIATION'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COMMON ELEMENTS IN THE MAINTENANCE THERE? THAT'S CORRECT.
SO YOU SAID YOU CHANGED OUT THE LIGHTS.
THEY STARTED GOING OUT ON THE WHAT? I MEAN, WHAT I MEANT BY THAT IS GIVEN THE FORM FIT AND FUNCTION OF
[01:00:01]
THE LIGHTS THAT WERE LEGACY LIGHTS VERSUS YOUR SOLAR LIGHTS, ARE THEY EXACT MATCH IN ALL THOSE ISSUES FORM FIT AND FUNCTION? THEY'RE NOT AN EXACT MATCH.WELL, SOME YOU'RE, YOU'RE, I PUT NEW LIGHTS ON THERE.
I PUT SOLAR LIGHTS ON THOSE EXISTING POLES.
O OKAY, WELL IF, IF I MAY, THEY, THEY INSTALLED, UM, SOLAR LIGHTS TO MITIGATE THE ISSUE.
UM, IN THE, IN THE MEANTIME, UH, THE CITY APPRECIATES THEM PUTTING UP SOME SOLAR LIGHTS.
UM, BUT IT'S, IT'S, UH, A BIT SAFER BEHIND THE BUILDING, UH, THAN IT WAS IN MY, UH, INITIAL INSPECTION.
AS YOU GO THROUGH THESE, UH, YOU'LL SEE IT, THESE SOLAR LIGHTS ARE GIVING SOME LIGHT, WHEREAS BEFORE IT WAS COMPLETELY DARK.
UM, THEY UNDERSTAND THAT THESE LIGHTS DON'T SUBSTITUTE FOR THE, UM, REAL LIGHTS.
BUT MY, MY POINT IS THAT THEY ALTERED, THERE'S A DECLARATION IN CONDOMINIUMS ABOUT WHAT, WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT.
AND NORMALLY IT'S A ONE ON ONE THING.
IF YOU HAVE THIS LIGHT, I HAVE TO MAINTAIN IT UNLESS I GET SOME, A CHANGE APPROVED.
IT'S CALLED A MATERIAL ALTERATION.
AND DON'T AND THEY SHOULD BE GETTING FPL OR ANOTHER CONTRACTOR.
NO, THAT'S, THAT'S DOWN THE ROAD.
BUT IT'S CALLED A MATERIAL ALTERATION.
IT SHOULD, THE MATERIAL ALTERATION SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN YOUR, IN YOUR DOCKS, IN YOUR, IN YOUR, IN YOUR HOME, IN YOUR O I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE DECLARATION DOCUMENTS, RIGHT? YEAH.
ANYTIME THERE IS A MATERIAL THERE, THERE NOTHING IN THOSE DECLARATION DOCUMENTS ADDRESS THAT.
SO THERE, IT HAS TO BE A, A MORE THAN LIKELY A 90%, UH, APPROVAL RATE FROM ALL ALL MEMBERS OF THAT ASSOCIATION, IF I CAN.
THE ISSUE BEFORE THE BOARD IS NOT WHETHER THEY GOT APPROVAL FROM THEIR ASSOCIATION.
IT'S WHETHER OR NOT THEY'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH, UH, REPAIRING THESE LIGHTS, WHETHER THERE'S A VIOLATION CURRENTLY, UH, OF CITY CODE.
UH, THEIR VIOLATION WITH THEIR COVENANTS IS A WHOLE SEPARATE ISSUE OUTSIDE THIS.
MAY I ANSWER MY, ASK MY QUESTION? YES, SIR.
MY QUESTION IS, IS YOU'RE GONNA HAVE FLORIDA POWER LIKE DERRICK, HOW ARE THEY GONNA GET, HOW ARE THEY GONNA GET THE POWER FROM THIS POLE TO THIS POLE? RIGHT.
THEY ARE GOING TO DIG UP THE PARKING LOT.
SO THEY'RE GONNA, AND THERE'S A PLAN IN PLACE TO REPAY THAT.
AFTER THAT THEY'RE, THEY'RE GONNA BE DIGGING THE PARKING LOT UP.
CORRECT? WE GETTING INTO THE WEEDS.
AND PLAN B IS TO DO THE SAME THING.
IF FLOWER POWER LIGHT COMES BACK.
SO AGAIN, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS A FINE IN VIOLATION GIVEN UNTIL AUGUST 25TH.
UH, JUST ONE THING, CAN WE VERIFY WHETHER OR NOT THESE LIGHTS ARE WORKING ALL NIGHT LONG SO THAT THAT'S OUR COMPLAINT? YEAH.
BEFORE, BEFORE THE NEXT CODE BOARD POINT OF, OF DOING A FOUR O'CLOCK, UH, IN THE MORNING INSPECTION AND CHARGE CITY ACCORDINGLY.
I WOULD, I WOULD WELCOME THAT.
ANYTHING ELSE? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSIONS? CAN I JUST MAKE A STATEMENT INTO THIS? UH, SURE, YOU CAN DO IT.
YOU ARE, YOU ARE DEBATING ABOUT, AND I HEAR YOU RIGHT.
THEY'RE, THEY'RE ASKING VERY VALID QUESTIONS, YOUR HONOR.
I, THIS IS THE BACK I STATE TRUTHFULLY UNDER OATH.
THOSE LIGHTS ARE NOT SUFFICIENT.
THESE ARE SOLAR LIGHTS PUT OVER THE OLD LIGHTS THAT THEY HAD THERE.
AND THEY'RE, AND THEY'RE, THEY'RE RETALIATING AGAINST ME BECAUSE I SAY THEY'RE NOT WHAT WE HAVE TO GO WITH.
THEY ARE THE FINDINGS OF FACT.
RIGHT? SO WE WILL HAVE SOMEBODY VERIFY WHAT YOU SAY IS WHAT THEY EXPERIENCE WHEN THEY GO OUT THERE AND SAY, YEAH, THE LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING.
WE HAVE TO HAVE THAT IN ORDER TO BE MOTION.
I A MOTION? HUH? CAN I MAKE A MOTION? YES YOU CAN, SIR.
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT AFTER RECEIVING NOTICE CITED PROPERTY AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CE 2 26 0 2 3 8 BE FOUND WITH THE INITIAL VIOLATIONS OF THE CITY CODE AS CITED WITH CONTINUED OBSERVATIONS AFTER THE APPLICANT.
THE NOTICE COMPLIANCE PERIOD ON THE DATE OF AUGUST 25TH, I BELIEVE MORE THAN THIS.
UM, WITH, YOU KNOW, CURRENTLY NO FINE, BUT, BUT YOU KNOW, WITH UP TO $250 A DAY.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? HEARING NO DISCUSSION.
HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
YOU HAVE TO START TURNING IN SOMETHING TO THIS GENTLEMAN.

AND THE NEXT ONE UNDERNEATH THAT SAME THING, AUGUST OF 2025.
COMPARING THOSE TO TODAY'S PHOTOS, THERE'S NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE.
AND IF YOU GO TO THE AERIAL, THAT RED BOX IN SECTION IS THE PHOTOS THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT THOSE, THAT'S THE AREA THAT WE WERE HOPING WOULD GET CLEANED UP SO THAT WE CAN RECOMMEND A STAY FOR STARTING CLEANING UP ON THE SECOND PART.
THE CITY WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND TO STAY ONCE THAT AREA IS CLEANED UP AND WE MOVE INTO THE SECOND ONE.
BUT AT THIS POINT OUR POSITION IS THERE'S NOT MUCH PROGRESS TO JUSTIFY THAT.
AND THE CITY'S POSITION IS THE FINE SHOULD CONTINUE TO RUN.
MR. JACKSON, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR HAROLD OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? I REALLY DIDN'T HEAR WHAT SAY IT, BUT WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT, MOVING THAT MATERIAL OUT.
WE GOT THAT'S 50 YEARS, SOME 50 SOME YEARS OF ACCUMULATION OF MATERIAL PARTS AND STUFF AND IT'S, IT'S, IT'S GOOD STUFF.
AND WHAT I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO DO IS GIVE A, UH, GIVE A REDUCE THAT SITUATION, THAT FINE OR EITHER STOP THAT FINE ON US TILL WE GET, I GOT MY SON HERE, HE CAME, HE'S GONNA TAKE OVER TO, UH, COMPLETE THIS JOB.
AND BY THE TIME YOU FEED AGAIN, WE SHOULD HAVE THAT NORTH AREA ALL CLEARED OUT, UH, OF ANY DEBRIS.
DO YOU WANT YOUR SON TO SPEAK OR DID YOU SAY AGAIN? DO YOU WANT YOUR SON TO SPEAK TO THE BOARD OR ARE YOU COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT YOU JUST STATED TO THE BOARD? WELL, HE, HE CAN COME TELL YOU THAT HE'S GONNA TAKE OVER, UH, WELL NOT TAKE OVER TO HELP ME TO GET THAT DONE.
'CAUSE I CAN, I HAD A, A HEART SURGERY AND SO I'M NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING MUCH AT ALL.
SO HE'S TAKING OVER MOST OF THE STUFF TO BE DONE.
AND SIR, CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR FROM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? YES, I DO.
AND WHAT'S YOUR NAME? CHARLES W. JACKSON JR.
[01:15:01]
YOU.UH, WE'VE MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS ON THAT NORTH LOT, UH, SINCE THE BEGINNING.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THOSE PICTURES THERE REFLECT, BUT WE HAVE MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS.
HE'S BEEN, UH, HAD SOME OPERATIONS, SOME SICKNESS, AND I WILL BE THERE TO TAKE OVER, HELP HIM, UH, GET IT ALL CLEANED UP, SIR.
HOW, HOW INVOLVED ARE YOU GONNA BE EVERY DAY AND WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE TIMEFRAME YOU'RE GOING TO NEED TO GET AT LEAST THE NORTH SIDE TAKEN CARE OF? YOU TALKING ABOUT THE NORTH SIDE? WAIT, THE AREA YOU WAS IN YESTERDAY? YES.
OF WHAT, HOW LONG MUCH HOW, HOW MUCH TIME YOU SAY HE'S ASKING.
HOW, HOW LONG'S GONNA TAKE? UM, I WOULD SAY WE GOTTA BE GET THAT IN AT 3 30, 2 OR THREE WEEKS.
BECAUSE WE GOING EVERYTHING GOTTA GO TO THE DUMP.
SO THAT WHOLE LOCK NORTH SIDE NORTH.
YOU HAVE A QUESTION? UH, I I WANT TO ASK THE BOARD, UH, STOP TO FIND, UH, TO, ON THIS SITUATION.
SO I I'M GOING TO TRUST THAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE COMPLETELY INVOLVED.
THE CITY WOULD RECOMMEND STAYING THE FINE AS OF TODAY UNTIL AUGUST 26.
FIRST OFF, ANYTHING ELSE Y'ALL WANT TO ADD OR ANYTHING? NO.
GO AHEAD, MR. TILL I MAKE A MOTION TO ALL THE CITY PROPERTY AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CASE NUMBER CE 2023 DASH 0 1 0 2 5 REMAIN IN NON-COMPLIANCE TO THE BOARD'S PREVIOUS ORDERS.
THE FINE SHALL BE STATED FROM ACCRUING AND REMAIN AT THE CURRENT PRICE OF $15,800 UNTIL A HEARING ON OCTOBER THE SEVENTH, 2026.
I HAVE A MOTION FOR THE BOARD.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSIONS OR DISCUSSION? HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 25, CASE NUMBER 2023 DASH 0 0 8 9 6 PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 1807 AND 1809 RIVERVIEW DRIVE.
HI, MR. CHAIRMAN, WHILE THEY'RE BUSY, CAN I ASK YOU, HOW DID Y'ALL KNOW THAT, UM, WHAT THE FINE ENDED UP TO BE? BECAUSE I DON'T SEE IT ON HERE.
THE FINE THE LAST CASE, THE FINE.
YOU STAYED, HOW DID YOU KNOW IT WAS 15,800? IT'S, IT WAS ON HERE.
IT WAS ALSO ON, UH, IT WAS ON THE SCREEN ON THE SLIDE.
CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? YES.
DO YOU SWEAR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? YES.
AND WHAT IS YOUR NAME? TONY RUANO.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? I'M THE OWNER'S REP, UH, INSPECTOR GERMAN.
WE ARE HERE ON UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? YES, WE HAVE, UH, SENT OUT A, UH, NEW NOTICE OF HEARING, UM, BECAUSE THE, UM, PERMITTING THE PERMIT APPLICATION FOR THIS PROPERTY WAS, DID WE SWEAR THE, DID WE SWEAR HIM IN? WE DID.
UM, SO THIS WAS INITIALLY 1807 RIVERVIEW, BUT THE PERMIT HAS BEEN SWITCHED TO THE ADDRESS OF 1809 RIVERVIEW BECAUSE IT'S, UH, PART OF, UH, ALL OF THIS IS THAT YOU SEE THE PHOTOS IS BEHIND 1807 AND 1809 RIVERVIEW.
AND THE PERMIT ADDRESS HAS BEEN SWITCHED TO 1809.
SO WE SENT OUT A NEW NOTICE OF HEARING ON, UH, JUNE THE 24TH OF 2026, AND POSTED THAT NEW NOTICE OF HEARING ON 6 26 26 TO INCLUDE BOTH ADDRESSES TO INCLUDE 1809.
ALSO IN THIS, UH, CODE BOARD CASE.
UM, THEY HAVE A PERMIT APPLICATION IN, AND THE MOST RECENT DOCUMENTS THEY UPLOADED WHEN LAST I CHECKED ARE STILL UNDER REVIEW.
AND THE CONTRACTOR TONY EMAILED ME TODAY TO GIVE ME AN UPDATE THAT THEY'RE READY TO SUBMIT THE NEXT DOCUMENTS THEY NEED TO SUBMIT WHEN THAT REVIEW IS COMPLETE.
SO THE, UH, CITY, UH, RECOMMENDS THAT THE BOARD WOULD FIND THE, UH,
[01:20:02]
1807 AND 1809 IN VIOLATION AND, UH, SETTING A COMPLIANCE DATE OF 8 25 26 FOR A FINE, UP TO $250 A DAY FOR EVERY DAY STILL IN VIOLATION.AND WHAT WAS THE NEW NOTICE OF HEARING, UH, AND NEW NOTICE OF VIOLATION DATE? OR DO YOU NOTICE OF HEARING DATE, I SHOULD SAY? 'CAUSE IT WAS THE SAME BY YES, IT WAS THE SAME.
SAME, UH, PROPERTY OWNER, THIS TWO, UM, PROPERTIES RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO EACH OTHER.
AND THE NOTICE OF HEARING THE NEW NOTICE OF VIOLATION, NOTICE OF HEARING WAS SENT 6 24 26 AND IT WAS POSTED ON 6 26 26.
AND THE GREEN CARD, UM, WAS RETURNED, SIGNED.
WE RECEIVED THAT BACK ON 6 29 26.
MR. RUGO, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR GERMAN OR ANY COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD? YES.
UM, LAST TIME I WAS HERE, WE SUBMITTED, UM, A NEW SET OF PLANS.
WE HAD, UH, UH, SATISFIED MOST OF THE COMMENTS.
WE REORGANIZED, WE WANTED TO SUBMIT THE LAST OF THE COMMENTS SO EVERYTHING LOOKS SATISFIED.
WE TRIED TO PUT IT IN THE PORTAL TODAY AND IT, IT JUST WOULDN'T GO IN BECAUSE OF THE REVIEW PROCESS.
SOMETHING ELSE IS STILL BEING REVIEWED.
I SENT ALL THE DOCUMENTS TO, TO MICHELLE SO SHE COULD SEE.
UM, SO I, I BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON SITE AND WITH THE PERMITTING PROCESS IS, IS GOING TO BE COMPLETE EXCEPT FOR ONE THING.
AND SO THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE, IT LOOKED LIKE WE HAD A NEW VARIANCE THAT WE HAD TO APPLY FOR THAT WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION.
WE, UM, WE, WE HAVE EVERYTHING READY FOR THE VARIANCE TO BE SUBMITTED.
UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE CITY SAID WAS THEY DON'T REALLY SEE THAT THERE'S A HARDSHIP, UM, IN, ON THAT BANK.
THERE'S ACTUALLY A CONCRETE WALL THAT'S, I BELIEVE MIGHT BE HISTORICAL WITH THE, WITH THE BERM OR THE BANK.
SO WE, I PROVIDED INFORMATION FOR THAT, FOR OUR VARIANCE AND FOR OUR HARDSHIP.
NOW, IF THE VARIANCE DOESN'T GET APPROVED, I, I ALREADY HAVE THE ENGINEER, UM, HE'S COMING OUT THURSDAY JUST TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE, THE, UH, THE OLD CONCRETE WALL THAT'S UNDERNEATH THE DECK.
AND, UM, AND SO IF THE VARIANCE DOESN'T GET APPROVED, WE EITHER HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION WITH THE ENGINEER, IF THE WALL'S STRONG ENOUGH FOR US TO PUT THE PILES ON THERE TO MOVE IT BACK TO THE RIGHT SPOT OR TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THAT CONCRETE.
AND WE, WE HAVE NO IDEA HOW BIG IT IS.
IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S, IT'S AT LEAST THREE BLOCK HIGH AND IT'S A FOOTER, BUT IT'S ALL IN THE MUD AND DIRT.
AND SO WHEN THIS HOMEOWNER BOUGHT THIS PROPERTY, HE WAS PUT IN THE PAPER PROBABLY LIKE SIX OR SEVEN YEARS AGO FOR TOUCHING THE BANK.
SO THIS IS TECHNICALLY ON THE BANK.
SO WE JUST WANT TO BE CAREFUL, YOU KNOW, AND NOT, UH, JUST DEMOLISH THE WALL AND PUT THE PILES IN AND CALL IT A DAY.
WE STILL NEED TO GET ENGINEERED PLANS IF THE VARIANCE DOESN'T WORK.
AND WE'RE ACTUALLY ASKING THE ENGINEER TO HELP US WITH THE VARIANCE TO, TO JUSTIFY SOME OF THE STUFF.
SO WE BELIEVE WE'RE REALLY CLOSE.
UM, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS.
THERE'S STILL A LITTLE BIT OF BACK AND FORTH TO GO THROUGH, BUT I THINK WE'VE, WE, WE FOUND A, A GOOD ENGINEER AND HE'S THE ONE WHO'S HELPING US FINISH THIS.
WELL, IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINEERING PROCESS, YOU KNOW, IS UNDER REVIEW IN THE CITY, RIGHT? IT'S IN ENGINEERING, YEAH.
THAT INCLUDES, UH, BUILDING, STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING, ALL THAT.
IT'S UNDER REVIEW AND MOST OF THE REVIEWS ARE COMPLETE EXCEPT FOR ONE.
SO HE CAN'T, LIKE HE SAID, HE CAN'T UPLOAD ANY MORE DOCUMENTS AND TRY TO MOVE IT FORWARD BECAUSE HE'S STILL WAITING ON US.
AND SO THE BUILDING PERMIT REQUIRED IS KIND OF A MISNOMER THAT THERE IS A PERMIT, RIGHT? IT'S THE PACKAGE IS IN REVIEW.
SO YEAH, ALL THIS WAS DONE WITHOUT A PERMIT, BUT HE'S APPLIED.
THERE'S AN APPLICATION THAT'S STILL UNDER REVIEW.
AND SO THIS WALL, THE FUNCTION OF THE WALL, IT'S NOT A RETAINING WALL, IT'S NOT STRUCTURAL, IT'S JUST HAPPENS TO BE THERE.
IT'S BEEN THERE SINCE DAY ONE.
WELL, THEY, NOBODY PUT WALLS ON BANKS FOR WITHOUT A REASON.
IS IT A RETENTION WALL? STRUCTURAL, IF YOU MOVED IT, WOULD THE WHOLE BANK COLLAPSE? IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE, I THINK THE, THE HISTORICAL HOUSE DOWN THE STREET.
SO, YOU KNOW, SIX YEARS AGO WHEN THE OWNER BOUGHT THE PROPERTY, HE MADE A NICE LITTLE DIRT ROAD DOWN THE, THE BANK AND HE GOT PUT THE PAPER FOR IT.
SO WE DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
SO WE'RE JUST TAKING THE PROPER STEPS TO OKAY.
WELL, TO NOT JUST STILL HAVE FIGURED IT OUT.
SO MICHELLE, SO HAVE YOU SEEN YOU, SO YOU'VE SEEN PROGRESS, SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS.
AND IT'S BEEN COMING AS YOU NEED IT COMING? YES.
[01:25:01]
ME UPDATED AND SO, AND TELLS ME THINGS BEFORE I EVEN HAVE TO ASK MY NEXT QUESTION IS, IS THE 8 25 GIVEN HIM ENOUGH TIME TO COMPLETE EVERYTHING OR, OR IS THAT, OR WE NEED TO KEEP IT AT THAT TO SHOW CONTINUED PROGRESS? UM, I, I, I'D SAY JUST KEEP IT FOR 8 25.WE'LL JUST KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT.
I I THINK IT'LL BE CLOSE AT THAT POINT.
ONE THING I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THOUGH IS THIS CONTRACTOR WHO STARTED THE JOB, THERE WAS ONE POST OUT THERE AND THE CITY GAVE HIM A PERMIT AND HE BUILT A 350 FOOT LONG DOCK.
YOU KNOW THAT I'M, I'M THE CLEANUP CREW, SO THANK YOU SIR.
IT'S MORE LIKE AN INITIAL FINDING, RIGHT? YES.
SO BASICALLY THE, WE'RE AMENDING OUR INITIAL FINDING FOR ONE LOT TO INCLUDE THE SECOND LOT.
SO JUST AN AMENDED INITIAL FINDING.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I'LL MAKE THE MOTION THAT IN CASE NUMBER CE 2023 DASH 0 8 9 6 THAT WE AMEND THE INITIAL MOTION TO INCLUDE 1807 AND 1809 IN THE, UH, IN THE MOTION.
AND WE GIVE THE RESPONDENTS UNTIL AUGUST THE 25TH OF 26TH COMPLY FOR A FINE OF UP TO $250 A DAY PER DAY.
BE ASSESSED UNTIL MOTION, UNTIL ITEMS CAN CORRECTED.
THAT MOTION? HAVE A MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD BY MR. THIEL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION? IF NOT, HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
THREE, FIVE, TAKE FIVE, TAKE FIVE.
HOW ABOUT 58 GUYS? WE'RE ON NUMBER 58.
CASE NUMBER 2023 DASH 0 0 0 3.
PROPERTY LOCATED AT ELTON DRIVE.
I I HAVE A ROBIN BUCKLEY ON THAT CASE.
WE'LL SKIP OVER THAT ONE AND GO TO 52 I NUMBER 52.
CASE NUMBER 2023 DASH 0 0 3 7 6.
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1750 STEEL STREET 52 AND 53.
UM, INSPECT OR OFFICIAL HAROLD, THIS IS, UH, UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? UH, UNFORTUNATELY WE'RE STILL AT THE SAME SPOT WE WERE WHEN WE STARTED THIS CASE BACK IN 2023.
THERE HAS BEEN NO DILIGENT PROGRESS TO, TO MOVE THIS FORWARD WITH THEIR SITE PLAN.
UM, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO RESTART THE FINE AT $50 PER DAY FOR EACH CASE.
UH, THE CITY'S POSITION, IF YOU CAN GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE.
MANY, MANY COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE RESPONDENT, THEIR DEVELOPERS, THEIR, THEIR PLANNERS THROUGH EMAILS AND ENTER GOV TO TRY TO GET THIS WORKED OUT.
PART OF IT IS THERE'S BEEN SOME AREA TO FOLLOW UP ON THE RESPONDENT'S SIDE TIME AND TIME AGAIN UNTIL CODE BOARD HEARING TIME AND THEN THEY'RE JUGGLING TO GET SOMETHING DONE AT THE LAST MINUTE.
AND UNFORTUNATELY THE CITY IS IN A
[01:30:01]
POSITION NOW THAT WE HAVE TO RECOMMEND RESTARTING THAT FINE FOR BOTH CASES $50 PER CASE.MR. BECKETT, CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO.
YOU CAN PUT YOUR, NOW HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? I'M THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY.
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR OFFICIAL HAROLD, OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UH, NO QUESTIONS.
UH, WE HAVE BEEN MAKING SOME PROGRESS SINCE THE LAST TIME I WAS BEFORE THE BOARD IN PERSON.
UH, I WAS ABLE TO CREATE AN LLC TO, UH, THERE'S SOME SMALL LOTS THAT ARE INVOLVED.
I'VE BEEN ABLE TO, UH, CREATE AN LSC SO I CAN HAVE ONE SOLE OWNER FOR THOSE LOTS.
AND ALSO WORKING WITH THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S OFFICE, I'VE BEEN ABLE TO COMBINE THOSE INTO A SINGLE PROPERTY ID AND A SINGLE TAX ACCOUNT NUMBER, WHICH I KNOW IS PART OF, UH, MOVING FORWARD WITH THE SITE PLAN.
SO WE HAVE BEEN MAKING SOME PROGRESS THERE.
WE'VE SUBMITTED OUR SECOND SET OF ENGINEERING PLANS FOR THE, UH, APPROVAL OF OUR SITE PLAN.
AND, UH, THE ISSUE, THE RECENT ISSUE HAS COME, WE RECEIVED, UH, I GUESS FEEDBACK FROM THE CITY AND MY CONTRACTOR DID NOT ACT ON THAT.
SO WE COULD ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ON THAT SECONDARY REVIEW.
UH, I WAS NOTIFIED TODAY THAT MY CONTRACTOR WON'T BE, UH, WORKING ON MY PROJECT ANYMORE.
SO I NEED TO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO TAKE THAT OVER A NEW CONTRACTOR.
SO WHAT I'M ASKING IS FOR THE BOARD TO EXTEND THE STAY OF FINE, AT LEAST UNTIL THE NEXT BOARD MEETING TO ALLOW ME ENOUGH TIME TO FIND ANOTHER CONTRACTOR SO I CAN CONTINUE FORWARD WITH COMPLIANCE.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OTHER THAN IT'S TAKEN THREE YEARS TO GET TO THIS POINT.
UH, WHAT'S BEEN THE PROBLEM? EVERY UH, THINGS TAKE TIME.
IT HAS BEEN, FIRST WE, WE CORRECTED A FEW OF THE SIMPLE ISSUES THAT WE HAD.
UH, THEN WE FOUND THE CONTRACTOR.
WE, UH, MOVED FORWARD WITH THE FIRST PLAN AND WE ANSWERED AND RESPONDED TO THE FIRST QUESTIONS, UH, WAS FOUND.
I NEEDED TO COMBINE EVERYTHING 'CAUSE THEY WERE IN DIFFERENT OWNERS.
IT'S JUST, IT'S JUST TAKEN TIME.
HAVE YOU'VE BEEN THE OWNER ALL ALONG? YES, SIR.
MR. HARRELL, ANYTHING TO FOLLOW UP? UH, THE CITY HAS REITERATED THIS SAME ISSUE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE CASE BEFORE WE EVER TOOK IT TO HEARING, BEFORE WE EVER TOOK IT TO THE ORIGINAL FINES.
IT'S THE SAME ISSUE THAT JUST DOESN'T GET RESOLVED TO MOVE THIS FORWARD.
I, I'M OUT OF ANSWERS TO TRY TO DO ANYTHING MORE EXCEPT START THE FINE.
UM, THE ONUS IS ON THE OWNER TO DO THE FOLLOW UP.
USUALLY I'M FOLLOWING UP WITH HIM AS WE GET CLOSER TO HIM AND I LOOK ON INTER GOV JUST LIKE THEY CAN DO TO FIND OUT THAT INFORMATION.
THE LAST TIME THEY ADDRESSED THIS SAME ISSUE WAS IN MARCH OF THIS PAST YEAR.
AND THAT'S WHY THEY GOT THEIR MOST RECENT STAY.
BUT HERE WE ARE STILL NOT RESOLVED.
UH, I GOT ON INTER GOV TO SEE WHERE IT WAS.
THEY COULD DO THE SAME THING, BUT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN DOING THOSE FOLLOW UPS.
UH, THEY DON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL I CALL, UNFORTUNATELY WE'RE THREE YEARS IN AND WE ARE NOT ANYWHERE CLOSER TO BREAKING GROUND.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? MAY I JUST YES, OF COURSE.
UM, BEFORE THE LAST, UH, STAY, UH, WE DID SUBMIT THAT SECOND SET OF ENGINEERING PLANS.
UH, SO PROGRESS IS BEING MADE HOWEVER SLOWLY, BUT IT IS BEING MADE.
SO AGAIN, THE SAME COMMENT FROM ENGINEERING IS THE SAME COMMENTS IN DAY ONE.
AND THAT LAST COMMENT WAS FROM MARCH.
AND THEIR CONTRACTOR, THEIR, UH, THEIR, UH, DESIGN ENGINEER OR HIMSELF SHOULD BE CHECKING THAT ENTER GOV ALL THE TIME.
AND THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF BACK IN MARCH.
AND IF THERE WAS AN ISSUE, THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF IT THEN.
BUT THE, BUT THE, THE PATTERN IS THEY DON'T DO IT UNTIL I CALL
AND THEN THEY DON'T, THEY DON'T GO ALL THE WAY TO THE END AND THEN THEY DON'T FOLLOW UP AGAIN UNTIL I CALL.
IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS AND IT'S THE SAME ISSUE.
I DID HIRE SOMEONE TO NAVIGATE ME THROUGH THIS FIELD OF GETTING THE SITE PLAN, THE ENGINEERING PLANS, AND THEY DIDN'T DO IT.
BUT I, I KNOW AS THE PROPERTY OWNER, IT IS MY ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY.
THAT'S WHY I'M ONLY ASKING FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER MONTH TO HIRE SOMEONE AND MAKE SURE THAT HAPPENS.
THE, THE NORMAL ENGINEERING PROCESS IS, AS HE STATED, IT
[01:35:01]
GOES TO ENGINEERING.THEY MAKE REVIEWS AND COMMENTS, GOES BACK TO THE PERSON TO DEAL WITH THOSE, GOES BACK TO ENGINEERING.
THREE YEARS IS MORE THAN ADEQUATE TIME IN MY WORLD.
'CAUSE TO GET SOMETHING TO RESPOND TO A COMMENT DOESN'T TAKE THREE YEARS TO GET THERE.
WE'RE ON THE SECOND ROUND OF COMMENTS AND SUBMITTALS.
UH, CHAIR WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION IF ANYONE HAS ONE CITY RECOMMENDATION.
THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS A RE AND STATE THE FINE AT $50 A DAY STARTING TODAY.
AND THAT IS FOR BOTH, FOR EACH CASE.
BOTH 14 $50 PER CASE FOR 52 AND 53.
I MOTION THAT THE CI OF PROPERTY AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CE 2023 DASH 0 3 76 AND CCE 2023 DASH 0 3 77 REMAIN IN NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE BOARD'S.
PREVIOUS ORDER SHALL HAVE THE FINE RECOMMENCING THE AMOUNT OF $50 PER DAY BEGINNING TODAY FOR EACH DAY THAT THE VIOLATION CONTINUES ON BOTH THAT ON EACH PROPERTY, ON BOTH, ON BOTH.
SO IT'S A TOTAL OF $150 PER DAY PER PROPERTY, OR A TOTAL OF A HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR BOTH.
SECOND MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD.
MR. TEAL, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSIONS? HEARING MA'AM? HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 46, CASE NUMBER 2025 DASH 0 0 6 0 4.
THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT, IT'S THE LONGWOOD HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION.
SIR, CAN YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? I DO.
AND WHAT IS YOUR NAME? ROY MALOTT.
I REPRESENT LONGWOOD HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION.
AND MATT, IF YOU CAN, UH, RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.
DO YOU SWEAR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'RE ABOUT TO GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? YES, SIR.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRO? WHAT'S YOUR NAME AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? MY NAME IS JUNE LEWIS AND I'M A HOMEOWNER.
UM, INSPECTOR UH, KELLER, THIS IS UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? UH, SO THE, UM, ENGINEER FOR THE HOA HAS SUBMITTED PLANS TO THE CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT.
UM, AND THEY HAVE HAD SOME BACK AND FORTH, UM, THAT THAT PROCESS SEEMS TO HAVE SLOWED DOWN.
UM, PEOPLE WE'RE WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, UM, OF WHAT, UH, ANY REMAINING ISSUES THEY MIGHT HAVE WITH THE PLAN.
UH, AT THIS TIME, THE CITY'S STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO EXTEND COMPLIANCE UNTIL AUGUST 25TH.
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR KELLER OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? I HAVE SOME COMMENTS.
UH, DUE TO DELAYS ENTIRELY OUT OF CONTROL OF, OF LONGWOOD, UH, WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD RECONSIDER THE FINES IMPOSED ON APRIL 11TH, WHICH REQUIRED COMPLETION BY JULY 7TH.
UH, IT'S UNREALISTIC TO EXPECT COMPLIANCE BY THAT DATE, SINCE THE CITY HAS COMPLETELY UNSUCCESSFULLY, HAS BEEN COMPLETELY UNSUCCESSFUL IN PROVIDING THE REQUIRED APPROVALS THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE PROCESS.
ADDITIONALLY, SINCE FINES ARE TYPICALLY INTENDED TO PENALIZE FOR NON-COMPLIANCE, NO, FINE.
WE HAVE TAKEN ALL REASONABLE AND TIMELY ACTIONS TO COMPLY.
I I DON'T WANNA CUT YOU OFF, BUT I'M GONNA, ACTUALLY, I DO WANNA CUT YOU OFF.
I, I SHOULDN'T SAY I DON'T WANNA CUT YOU OFF, BUT THERE ARE NO FINES.
UH, THERE ARE NO FINES THAT ARE IMPOSED AT THIS POINT.
THERE'S BEEN A FINDING IN VIOLATION, BUT THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY FINES STARTED.
WE GOT A LETTER SAYING THAT FINES START ON JULY 7TH.
DO YOU HAVE THAT LETTER? IT'S OKAY TO, TO EXPLAIN WHAT THAT LETTER SAID WAS, OR WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE SAID WAS, YOU WERE GIVEN UNTIL JULY 7TH TO COMPLY, WHICH WAS YESTERDAY.
AND SO WE'RE HERE BACK AT THE, UH, BOARD MEETING ON JULY 8TH, RECOMMENDING AN EXTENSION BECAUSE IF FOR SOME REASON YOU DIDN'T FOLLOW THROUGH OR THERE WAS A PROBLEM, POTENTIALLY, UH, A DAILY FINE COULD HAVE STARTED TODAY.
THAT'S, UH, NOT GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE AS YOU'RE AWARE,
[01:40:01]
WE'RE WAITING ON CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT FOR A THUMBS UP, A THUMBS DOWN.UM, YOU KNOW, ENGINEERING PROCESSES ARE, IT'S LIKE AN ENGINEERING PROCESS.
UH, SO CITY STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO EXTEND COMPLIANCE UNTIL AUGUST 25TH.
AND, AND THE SAME SCENARIO MIGHT HAPPEN ON AUGUST 26TH.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN AT THAT POINT.
THE LETTER THAT I GOT SAID IF WE DIDN'T COMPLY BY THE SEVENTH, THE FINE STARTED ON THE EIGHTH.
WE HAVE NOT STARTED A FINE, WHAT WE DID THE LAST MEETING WAS GAVE YOU UNTIL YESTERDAY TO COMPLY OR A FINE, A FINE OF UP TO $250 A DAY.
THERE IS UNTIL THE BOARD LEVEES A FINE.
THAT WAS A INCENTIVE TO GET MOVING.
IT'S THOSE PEOPLE THAT DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT WE DO A FINE ON.
BUT BECAUSE YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING, WE'RE NOT, WE HAVE A LEVEE A FINE.
AND WHAT THE CITY IS REQUESTING THAT THIS BOARD DO IS EXTEND YOUR COMPLIANCE DATE TO THE NEXT MEETING, THE DAY BEFORE THE NEXT MEETING, WHICH IS AUGUST THE 26TH.
SO WE'RE GOING TO, IF THE BOARD VOTES ON IT, WE'RE GONNA EXTEND THE COMPLIANCE DATE TO AUGUST THE 25TH.
BUT YOU STILL DON'T HAVE A FINE AS OF YET.
COMPLIANCE MEANS COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT, IS THAT CORRECT? WE'RE WE'RE TRYING TO GET YOU TO COMPLETE AND DO, DO PROGRESS.
I WE HAVE NO WAY TO MAKE ANY PROGRESS.
WE'VE HAD A HUNDRED OVER 150 DAYS WORKING TOGETHER.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE WANTING YOU TO DO.
UH, WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY COMMENTS OTHER THAN FROM CITY ENGINEERING OTHER THAN, WE'LL WE'LL REFER THIS TO THE CITY ENGINEER.
THAT'S THE ONLY COMMENT WE'VE GOTTEN SINCE OUT OF, UH, CITY ENGINEERING SINCE, UH, YOU HAVE MR. HARRELL'S PHONE NUMBER AND YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE HIS PHONE NUMBER.
THEY'LL ALL EXPLAIN IT A LITTLE BIT MORE IN DETAIL TO YOU.
THEY'LL WALK YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING AND THEY'LL WALK YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING.
THEY, MR. KELLER CAN BE YOUR BEST FRIEND IN THIS PARTICULAR SITUATION.
WE'VE BEEN DOING A GOOD JOB OF EMAILING.
UM, WE ARE ALL WAITING ON THE CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT BECAUSE WE'RE WAITING ON CITY ENGINEERING.
WE HAVE, THAT'S A GAME CHANGER.
YOU KNOW, OUR ISSUE IS WE HAVE A TEMPORARY BARRIER UP THERE, ALBEIT, UH, THE HURRICANE SEASON IS PREDICTED TO BE VERY SMALL.
BUT WE ARE IN HURRICANE SEASON.
AND OUR, UH, OUTFALL BOX IS UNPROTECTED.
WE HAVE A TEMPORARY BARRIER THAT I HAD TO BEND THE ARMS OF PUBLIC WORKS TO PUT UP.
WE'RE GONNA MAKE A MOTION TO HELP, FIRST OF ALL, POSSIBLY MAKE A MOTION.
LET, LET'S, WE HAVE TO, WE HAVE TO LET THE OTHER PERSON OVER HERE RESPOND.
THAT BARRIER, THE YELLOW ONE THAT'S BEEN UP THERE EVER SINCE 24, THAT'S CALLED A BOOM.
THAT WAS PUT UP MR. DENNIS, SEPTEMBER.
MR. DENNIS, THE BOOK BUR PUT IT UP BACK TWO YEARS AGO.
LET HER, YOU'VE GOT, SHE GAVE YOU YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK, SIR.
YOU'VE GOTTA GIVE HER HER OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK AS WELL.
DENNIS BURKE PUT THAT UP IN 2024 WHEN ANOTHER HOMEOWNER COMPLAINED ABOUT THE FLOODING ISSUES AND THAT, UM, SKIMMER AND THAT CONTRAPTION WERE REMOVED THAT YEAR.
THEN THEY PUT ANOTHER SKIMMER BACK ON IN 25.
AND THAT'S WHEN I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT.
NOW THEY'RE WANTING TO PUT ANOTHER SKIMMER ON AND THAT SKIMMER IS GOING TO, GOING TO HAVE AN UNDERFLOW OF THIS MUCH, THIS MUCH FOR THE WHOLE CANAL.
AND THEN WHENEVER MUCK BUILDS UP IN THIS, YOU MAY HAVE THREE INCHES THAT'S GONNA GET OUT.
WHY NOT HAVE A SKIMMER PUT A THING AROUND UNDERFLOW THAT'S GONNA BE ABOUT 12 TO 18 INCHES.
SO TO ALLOW FLOW TO GET UNDERNEATH THERE, I PROVIDED PICTURES.
IT'S GONNA ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.
SO THE, THE CITY ENGINEER, THE DEPART, THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IS GOING TO DETERMINE WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BE HERE.
WHETHER IT'S TWO INCHES, ONE INCH, FIVE FEET.
WE HERE DO NOT HAVE THE EXPERTISE.
OR IS IT A MATTER BEFORE THE BOARD, THE, THE MATTER BEFORE THE BOARD HERE IS WHETHER OR NOT TO EXTEND THE COMPLIANCE.
WE RECOMMEND TO EXTEND THE COMPLIANCE
[01:45:01]
BECAUSE THE PLAN IS IN PLAY IN THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT WAITING FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL.WHATEVER THEY APPROVE IS, IS PERMITTED, WILL BE CODE COMPLIANT.
SO, AND THE, AND THE PICTURES THAT I HAD PROVIDED TO TAMMY A WHILE AGO, OR PICTURES PRIOR TO THE 24 REMOVAL OF A SKIMMER.
AND THAT IS A, A SHORT RAINFALL THAT WE HAD EARLY THAT MORNING AND THAT'S WHAT OUR STREET LOOKED LIKE.
SO I, I GUESS I NEED TO GET WITH MR. INAS, I HAD SENT HIM A VIDEO THAT I TOOK THIS YEAR WITHOUT THE SKIMMER ON.
WE'RE NOT HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE WATER.
I, I'LL, I'LL BE GETTING WITH MR. ENNI THIS WEEK TO FIND OUT WHAT'S THE HOLD UP.
SO YOU'RE, YOU'RE CONCERNS ARE NOTED.
THEY'RE IN THE PROCESS OF WORKING TO GET IT CORRECTED.
YOUR ISSUE, SIR, THE CITY IS WORKING WITH ENGINEERING TO RESOLVE YOUR PROBLEM SO YOU CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PROJECT.
HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WORKS OUT FOR BOTH OF YOU.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? IF NOT, YES SIR.
MR. MR. CHAIRMAN, I HAVE A MOTION.

UH, WE STILL NEED TO GET OVER THAT FINISH LINE.
[01:50:01]
SOME OUTSIDE STORAGE.WE STILL HAVE A MEMBRANE STRUCTURE, A TENT STRUCTURE, AND WE ALSO STILL HAVE THAT CAMPER.
THOUGH IT'S BEEN MOVED OFF THE PROPERTY LINE, IT'S BEEN MOVED.
UM, AND SHE MAY NOT STILL BE ST UH, STAYING IN IT, BUT IT NEEDS TO HAVE A PROPER REGISTRATION.
YOU CAN'T JUST STORE, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY A JUNK VEHICLE OR CAMPER THAT YOU'RE NEVER GONNA GO CAMPING IN BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE STAYING IN IT.
IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A SHED.
SO THOSE ARE THE, THE VIOLATIONS ON THIS PROPERTY.
WHEN WAS THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION MAILED ON AUGUST 8TH, 2025? AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION WAS SOMETHING TO THIS RESIDENT AND HAND, UH, DELIVERED, UH, UH, TO THE PROPERTY OWNER ON MAY 28, 20, UH, MAY 28.
THE NOTICE OF HEARING, UH, FOR THIS HEARING WAS, UM, SENT TO THIS RESIDENCE AND ALSO AND POSTED AT THE FRONT DOOR.
AND ON JUNE 3RD, THE CITY RECEIVED A GREEN CART INDICATING THE NOTICE OF HEARING HAD BEEN DELIVERED.
THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO REFINE IN VIOLATION AND GIVEN TO AUGUST 25TH TO COMPLY OR FINAL UP TO TWO 50 PER DAY FOR EACH STATE OF VIOLATION CONTINUES.
DO EITHER OF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR KELLER OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UH, IT'S JUST THAT WE'RE, WE'VE BEEN OVERWHELMED WITH THE, LIKE I SAID, A LOT OF STUFF THAT IS IN THE, IN THE YARD.
THEY MAY SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS AND WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS, GETTING RID OF IT.
NEED A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME JUST TO DO THAT.
AND THE MOTOR HOME IS, UH, IS BEING, UM, ADDRESSED RIGHT NOW.
HE'S HAVING, HE'S HAD QUITE A FEW YARD SALES.
UH, HE'S TAKEN A LOT OF THINGS TO THE DUMP.
UM, YOU CAN SEE THIS LAST WEEKEND, HE'S BEEN HAVING SOME MORE YARD SALES.
SO YOU SEE THE FRONT YARD, UH, COVERED WITH A LOT OF ITEMS AND HE STILL HAS A, UM, A TENT STRUCTURE IN THE BACK, UM, WITH MORE ITEMS UNDER IT.
I'M NOT SURE WHERE ALL THESE ITEMS CAME FROM, BUT HE HAS EXCESSIVE, UM, UH, FIRE OUTSIDE STORAGE.
UM, WE HAD A FIRE TOO AND SO WE'VE KIND OF BEEN SET BACK A LITTLE BIT, BUT, UM, WE HAVE BEEN, SOMETIMES WE HAD TO MOVE THINGS AROUND TO GET TO OTHER THINGS AND SO WE'VE BEEN TRYING, WE HAVEN'T MADE, WE'VE MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO COMPLY THE BEST WE CAN AND WE INTEND TO STILL DO SO.
AND THE RV, UM, THAT BELONGS TO ME THAT IT IS A GOOD RUNNING VEHICLE.
IT JUST NEEDS SOME PLZ AND THE GUY THAT SOLD IT TO ME, HE LIED TO ME AND DIDN'T GIMME THE TITLE.
SO I HAVE BEEN IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO COME UP WITH $400 TO JUST TO FILE THAT.
I TALKED TO THE, UM, CLERK OF COURTS AND THEY LED ME TO THE LAW LIBRARY AND THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO PRINT A PAPER FROM ANOTHER COUNTY AND TAKE $400 IN JUST TO GET THAT STARTED.
AND SO, YOU KNOW, STRUGGLE'S REAL
SO I'M, I'M DEFINITELY TRYING, I PLAN TO DO THAT.
SO JUST MAKE SURE YOUR PROGRESS GETS REPORTED TO HIM.
UM, WHAT IS THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IN THIS INSTANCE? UH, A FIND IN VIOLATION AND GIVEN TO AUGUST 25TH.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? WHAT WAS THE FINE? NO, FINE.
SO HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.

AND WHAT'S YOUR NAME? GLENN MULLEN.
AND HOW ARE YOU ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY? I'M THE OWNER, UH, INSPECTOR DURT.
WE'RE HERE ON UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? UH, THERE'S BEEN NO PROGRESS IN THE CASE.
UM, YOU GO TO THE, I THINK IT'S THE LAST SLIDE, UH, HE'S ACTUALLY BOUGHT, BOUGHT MORE STUFF TO THE PROPERTY.
I THINK HE'S, HE'S CLEANING SOME OF HIS OTHER PROPERTIES THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY AND BRINGING THAT STUFF, UH, HERE.
AS YOU CAN SEE, ALL THOSE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN, TAKEN, UH, EITHER YESTERDAY
[01:55:01]
OR, UH, EITHER MONDAY OR TODAY.UH, HE, HE PUT UP A FENCE, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE, ON THE LEFT SIDE, UH, TOP AND BOTTOM, THAT THAT FENCE WASN'T THERE.
HE PUT THE FENCE UP TO A BLOCK WHERE YOU CAN'T SEE THE, THE CARPORT AREA.
UH, YOU CAN SEE THE U-HAUL AND THE U-HAUL IN THE YARD.
UM, NOW ALONG WITH THE, THE, UH, DERELICT BOATS IN THE BACKYARD, THERE'S ALSO, UH, VEHICLES WITH NO TAG.
UM, NOT SURE IF THEY'RE OPERABLE OR NOT.
UH, SO THE, THE CITY'S RECOMMENDING TO START A FINE OF, UH, A HUNDRED DOLLARS PER DAY.
MR. MOLEN, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR DURAN OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UH, YES.
UM, I HAD, UH, UM, RECENTLY BEEN, UH, UH, I COMPLETED TWO, UH, OTHER CASES, WHICH I'M HERE WITH MICHELLE WITH.
AND I, I'M UNDER COMPLIANCE WITH TWO OTHER PROPERTIES.
UM, I HAD THREE OR FOUR PROPERTIES RUNNING, UH, AT THE SAME TIME TO DO ALL THIS WORK BY, YOU KNOW, THIS DATE.
AND, YOU KNOW, IT, IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO, TO DO ALL THIS WORK AT ONE TIME.
I'M ONLY ONE PERSON AND I TRY TO GET WHATEVER HELP I CAN DO.
AND, UM, YOU KNOW, I, I DID A LOT OF WORK AND I WAS DOING, UM, OTHER WORK AS WELL, UH, AND, AND COMPLETED, YOU KNOW, LOTS OF THINGS ON THIS SPECIFIC PROPERTY.
UM, IT, IT STATED THAT THE, UH, UH, THE WINDOWS AND DOORS WERE BOARDED UP.
UH, I DID, UM, UM, PUT THE U-HAUL THERE TEMPORARILY, WHICH, YOU KNOW, I CAN REMOVE ALL THOSE VEHICLES ARE, UH, RUNNING OPERABLE VEHICLES RIGHT THERE IN THOSE PICTURES.
AND, UM, YOU KNOW, UH, THE, UM, UH, THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE PICTURE I SEE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE LOOKING THROUGH THE FENCE, WELL, FROM THAT VIEW, THAT'S ON MY OTHER PROPERTY, WHICH THERE'S A NO TRESPASSING ON THE PROPERTY POSTED.
SO THAT PROPERTY PICTURE WAS ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, ALL DUE RESPECT WAS TAKEN ILLEGALLY, UM, BY TRESPASSING ONTO MY OTHER PROPERTY TO TAKE THAT PHOTO.
UM, BUT EVERYTHING WAS BEHIND THE FENCE.
UH, AND IT SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN AN, AN ISSUE FOR ANY TYPE OF, UM, SITE OR, YOU KNOW, ANYTHING, YOU KNOW, THAT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THAT.
UH, BUT IT HAD BEEN MAINTAINED.
THE PROPERTY, UH, THE PROPERTY'S BEEN MOWED, UH, BEEN CLEANED UP.
UM, AND, AND ALL MY SURROUNDING PROPERTIES THERE, YOU KNOW, HAVE BEEN MOWED AND CLEANED UP.
AND I, YOU KNOW, I HAD PICTURES SHOWING ALL THIS PROGRESS THAT WAS DONE.
UH, HAVE PROPERTY RIGHT ON S ONE WHERE, YOU KNOW, I I, YOU KNOW, REPLACED A LOT OF, UH, YOU KNOW, UH, WOOD THAT WAS, UH, DONE, UH, UH, THAT WAS, UH, YOU KNOW, CORRODED WHATEVER THAT THEY TOLD ME TO CLEAN UP ON MY OTHER PROPERTY, MY, MY PROPERTY NEXT TO THAT I EVEN PAINTED MY WHOLE BUILDING, WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE TO, THEY JUST TOLD ME TO PAINT THE GRAFFITI.
AND I THOUGHT, WELL, I'LL JUST DO EXTRA WORK TO SHOW THAT I'M TRYING TO, YOU KNOW, BETTER THE COMMUNITY.
AND I DECIDED TO PAINT MY WHOLE PROPERTY, MY WHOLE, MY WHOLE BUILDING, WHICH I, WHICH I PAINTED THE WHOLE THING.
AND I JUST COULDN'T GET TO THE BACK IN TIME BECAUSE I HAD TO ADDRESS MY, MY OTHER PROPERTY, WHICH THEY STARTED FINES ON MY, MY, UM, UH, MY, MY PROPERTY NEXT TO THAT ON S ONE, WHICH, YOU KNOW, ALSO CAUSED FINES.
UH, UH, YOU KNOW, AND, AND I'M JUST ASKING IF YOU COULD JUST GIVE ME, UH, YOU KNOW, UH, LIKE UNTIL THE NEXT HEARING, I'LL HAVE EVERYTHING BUTTONED UP AND SECURED WHERE THERE WON'T BE ANY ISSUES WITH, WITH EVERYTHING.
I JUST, I, I COULDN'T DO EVERYTHING WITH ALL THE TIME, YOU KNOW, THAT I WAS ALLOWED AND, YOU KNOW, MICHELLE WOULD TESTIFY.
I, I BELIEVE THAT I, I DID ALL THIS OTHER STUFF TO COMPLY WITH MY OTHER PROPERTIES.
SO, UM, EVERYTHING THAT, THAT'S WITH THIS, YOU KNOW, I JUST ASKED FOR A LITTLE BIT MORE, MORE TIME JUST TO, JUST AN EXTENSION.
DID I UNDERSTAND HIM TO SAY HE HAD SOME OTHER PROPERTIES THAT WERE IN VIOLATION, BUT HE'S GOT THEM CLEANED UP BY TAKING STUFF OVER HERE? IS THAT WHAT I HEARD SOMEBODY DUMMY? I, UM, INSPECTOR DURAND IS THAT, I THINK YOU MAY HAVE MENTIONED THAT THERE WERE ITEMS THAT WERE RELOCATED TO THIS CURRENT PROPERTY.
I BELIEVE A TOTAL ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT IS FIVE.
THE, THE NEXT FIVE CASES THAT WILL BE BEFORE YOU ARE PROPERTIES THAT BELONG TO MR. MULLEN
HE MAY HAVE, UH, OLDER CASES FROM YEARS BACK, HE MAY HAVE FINALLY COMPLIED ON.
WELL, WE SHOULD BE WORKING ON THIS ONE RIGHT NOW, RIGHT? YES.
UM, AND I, I, I HAVE A QUESTION FOR MR. MOLAND.
UH, MR. MOLAND, SINCE YOU TESTIFIED.
MY QUESTION IS, UM, WE DO HAVE ADDITIONAL CASES, BUT THOSE OPEN CASES, THEY HAD ADDITIONAL JUNK AS
[02:00:01]
ANY OR ITEMS. DID YOU MOVE ANY OF THE ITEMS FROM THOSE LOCATIONS TO THIS PROPERTY? YES, I DID.AND THE ONES THAT I MOVED ARE RUNNING VEHICLES AND, AND I CAN PROVE THEY WRONG.
YOU KNOW, I JUST NEED TO MEET WITH THEM TO SHOW 'EM, YOU KNOW, THAT THEY RUN, THEY'RE MY VEHICLES AND THERE'S NO PROBLEMS WITH IT.
UH, IT'S JUST THAT, THAT THE U-HAUL LOOKS KIND OF BAD 'CAUSE IT'S, YOU KNOW, GOT THAT GRAFFITI ON THERE, WHICH, YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO, YOU KNOW, UH, REMOVE THAT.
UM, BUT THAT WAS JUST TEMPORARY TO CLEAR UP A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PROPERTY THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING THAT HAD A DEADLINE YET.
YOU KNOW, IT WAS JUST LIKE, I, YOU KNOW, MICHELLE HAD ASKED ME TO DO SOMETHING WITH IT AND YOU KNOW, I PUT IT THERE TEMPORARILY AND I, AND I, AND I TOLD HER THAT, YOU KNOW, IT WAS ONLY GONNA BE TEMPORARY, MR. CHAIR.
I HAVE, I DIDN'T GET MY QUESTION ANSWERED.
SO, AS A FOLLOW UP REAL QUICK.
SO, SO THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION IS YES, YOU MOVED ITEMS FROM OTHER PROPERTIES TO THIS PROPERTY.
THAT'S THE CORRECT STATEMENT THEN, CORRECT? UH, WELL, YES I DID.
THAT ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION AS WELL.
ARE THE OTHER PROPERTIES IN COMPLIANCE NOW? YES, MA'AM.
WE, WE WILL GO THROUGH THOSE INDIVIDUALLY.
WE'LL GET THOSE AS THEY COME BY.
NO, WE SHOULD GET TO THEM FIRST.
NO, WE'RE GOING THROUGH THEM IN ORDER OF, OF THE AGENDA.
SO THIS ONE'S FIRST, AND THEN WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER ONE AFTER THAT, ANOTHER ONE AFTER THAT.
WELL, THEY'RE ALL SEPARATE CASES.
I UNDERSTAND, BUT I DISAGREE WITH THAT.
'CAUSE HE, IF HE'S COMPLIED ON TWO OR THREE, THEN WE'RE PENALIZING HIM ON THIS ONE.
BUT REMEMBER, HE'S COMPLYING BY MOVING ITEMS FROM ONE PROPERTY TO ANOTHER.
WELL, THAT'S COMPLYING THAT, THAT THAT'S NOT JUST NECESSARILY THE, THE CASE.
I, I'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK AND I PAINTED THE WHOLE BUILDING.
I, I, UH, YOU KNOW, CLEANED UP THE WHOLE AREA.
LOT OF TRASH, THE, THE YARDS I'VE BEEN ON TOP OF.
ARE YOU SPEAKING OF THIS ONE? UH, MY NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES AND THAT ONE AS WELL? YES.
YOU'RE SPEAKING OF THAT ONE? UH, UH, WELL, I HAVE OTHER ONES ON US, ONE ADJACENT TO THOSE PROPERTIES.
THE QUESTION IS, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS ONE? YES OR NO? IS IT THIS PROPERTY THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW? IS IT 1684 AVOCADO AVE? UH, WELL, YES, WE'RE DEALING WITH 1684 AVOCADO AVE.
AND ARE THE, THE WORK THAT YOU'RE DESCRIBING, IS THAT FOR 1684 AVOCADO AVE OR IS IT FOR A DIFFERENT PROPERTY? UH, WELL SOME OF IT WAS FOR AVOCADO AVE.
THE OTHER PRO, THE OTHER IS FOR THE OTHER PROPERTIES THAT I COMPLIED ON, UH, AS FAR AS 16, UH, UH, 84 AVOCADO, I, I I, I TOOK THE, THE, THE HURRICANE WARDS OFF ALL THE WINDOWS AND DOORS.
I CLEANED UP ALL THE, THE, THE STUFF IN THE YARD THAT THEY ASKED ME TO.
I THINK THE BOARD WILL GET A CLEARER PICTURE IF WE TAKE EACH ONE OF THESE CASES INDIVIDUALLY.
THAT IS COMPLIED AND THE FINE IS STOPPED.
BUT NOW WE'RE WORKING ON THIS CASE BECAUSE THOSE ITEMS, NOT ONLY WERE THEY CONTINUING VIOLATIONS ON THIS PROPERTY NOW, THERE'S MORE FROM THE OTHER PROPERTY JUST TO COMPLY THAT ONE.
SO IF, IF YOU LET US GO THROUGH THESE INDIVIDUALLY, YOU'LL GET A BIGGER, BETTER PICTURE OF WHAT'S GOING ON.
'CAUSE I CAN'T DO IT ALL, YOU KNOW, IN ONE, YOU KNOW, ONE MONTH PERIOD.
I I JUST ASK FOR A EXTENSION ON THIS AND IT'LL BE ALL CLEANED UP.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I, I HAVE A QUESTION FOR INSPECTOR DURANT.
WHEN WAS THIS, WHEN DID YOU, WE RECEIVE THE COMPLAINT FOR THIS, UH, THIS PROPERTY.
THE COMPLAINT FOR THIS CASE, IT SAYS 8 28.
THAT'S NOT BE ON THE AGENDA TOO.
AND, AND, AND IF I MAY, UM, I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH SEVERAL HARDSHIPS.
I I, I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH, UH, FINAL JUDGEMENTS, SUMMARY JUDGMENTS, FORECLOSURE ON SEVERAL OTHER PROPERTIES.
AND I HAVE ONE TOMORROW I HAVE A FINAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT, UM, ON A PROPERTY.
AND I'M, I'M TRYING TO DO WHAT I CAN DO WITH ALL THE LEGAL THINGS I'M INVOLVED IN AND, AND JUST TRYING TO STAY AFLOAT WITH, WITH THIS AND, AND, AND DEVOTE 'EM ALL MY TIME.
WE'RE TRYING TO CLEAN THESE UP.
SO ALSO TO HELP THE BOARD WITH SOME HISTORY HERE.
MR. MULLEN'S PROPERTIES HAVE BEEN THE SUBJECT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT HISTORY FOR MAYBE 15 TO 20 YEARS.
ALL THESE PROPERTIES HAVE BEEN BEFORE THE BOARD, BEFORE ALL THESE PROPERTIES CONTINUED TO DETERIORATE.
ALL THESE PROPERTIES CONTINUE TO NOT BE COMPLIED AT LEAST FULLY.
AND, UH, IT EVEN ON OUR LIST FOR, UH, ENHANCED ENFORCEMENT, WE'RE TRYING TO GET SOME KIND OF, UH, INSPIRATION TO MR. MULLEN TO DO MORE THAN JUST MOVE THIS STUFF FROM ONE PROPERTY TO ANOTHER.
LIKE THE OLD PEANUT UNDER THE CUP.
AND, AND SO INSPECTOR DURAN, DO YOU HAVE THE, THE DATE NOW? YEAH, IT'S, IT WAS AUGUST 28TH, 2025.
[02:05:02]
AND THAT'S WHEN WE RECEIVED THE COMPLAINT.WHEN DID THE CITY REACH OUT TO MR. BULLEN ABOUT THIS PROPERTY? I BELIEVE IT WAS ABOUT A, A WEEK AFTER.
YEAH, NO, IT'S NOT THE ONE THAT I HAVE IN MY NOTES.
WAS IT BEFORE 2026 WHEN THE CITY REACHED OUT TO THE OH, YES.
WELL BEFORE THEN, PROBABLY THREE OR FOUR DAYS AFTER.
BECAUSE HE RECEIVED A NOTICE OF, OF VIOLATION BECAUSE OF, JUST BECAUSE OF THE HISTORY OF THE PROPERTY.
SO A VIOLATION WAS IMMEDIATELY SENT OUT.
MR. MULLIN, I, I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE PROBLEM.
I UNDERSTAND I'M GONNA DEAL WITH THESE CASES ONE BY ONE INDIVIDUALLY, BUT YOU'RE A ONE MAN SHOW AND YOU'RE THE ONLY PERSON THAT YOU'VE EMPLOYED TO REMEDY THESE CASES.
SO MY COMMENT IS YOU'RE GOING BACKWARDS INSTEAD OF FORWARDS BECAUSE YOU'RE A ONE MAN SHOW.
UH, SIR, I, I, I DID GET HELP, UH, FROM, UM, MY, UM, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, UH, WHAT WAS THAT? REALLY? MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, BUT HE'S BEEN HELPING ME.
AND, UM, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I I, I HAVE, UH, NO INCOME RIGHT NOW.
AND, AND, AND, AND MY FATHER, YOU KNOW, HE PASSED AWAY, UH, AND EVER SINCE THEN, THAT'S WHEN, IMMEDIATELY WHEN ALL THIS STARTED HAPPENING.
AND, AND HE USED TO HELP ME WITH THINGS AND, AND, YOU KNOW, EVER SINCE THEN, IT'S BEEN ALL ON ME.
AND, UH, BUT EVERYTHING'S BEEN GETTING DONE.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE OTHER PROPERTIES, YOU SEE THE PICTURES, YOU KNOW, IT'S AMAZING WHAT I'VE DONE.
UH, THE CHAIR WOULD, UH, LOVE IT.
A MOTION THAT DECIDED PROVE ALL RESPONDENTS IN CASE NUMBER CE 2025 DASH 0 0 6 0 1, HAVING FAILED TO COMPLY WITH THE BOARD'S, PREVIOUS ORDERS BE ASSESSED TO FINE OF $100 PER DAY, BEGINNING TODAY.
RESTATED VIOLATION CONTINUES, SHALL BE RECORDED AS A LIEN.
SECOND, SECOND MOTION BEFORE THE BOARD BY MR. THIEL.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, CONCERNS? NO.
HOW DOES THE BOARD VOTE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY YAY.
IF YOU HEARD THE OTHER ONES, YOU MAYBE WOULD VOTE DIFFERENTLY.
CASE NUMBER, UH, 2022 DASH 0 0 360 3 PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1683 NORTH HARBOR CITY BOULEVARD INSPECTOR GERMAN.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THIS CASE? YES, THIS, UH, CASE AT 1683 NORTH HARBOR CITY IN 2022 COMPLIED ON MAY 22ND.
SO NO ACTION NEEDED FROM THE BOARD, CORRECT? UH, NO, BUT IT WAS, UH, COM UH, THIS CASE WAS COMPLIED WITH A $18,250.
UM, NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 28.
CAN I MENTION SOMETHING ON THAT LAST ONE? SURE.
UM, I DID FILE AN APPEAL ON THAT CASE.
UM, I ASKED, UH, YOU KNOW, WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.
I, I SENT OVER AN EMAIL, UH, TO MICHELLE ON THE, UH, RECORDING.
UH, IT WAS FILED UNDER, UM, CLERK COURT.
AND I HAVE THE INFORMATION FOR THAT IF, UM, IF YOU LIKE.
BUT MICHELLE HAS IT ON HER EMAIL, UH, AND, UH, IS REQUESTING, UM, UH, TO HAVE THAT APPEALED.
UM, AND, AND THERE WAS ALSO A QUESTION OF THE, THE, THE DATE.
UH, SHE SAID IT WAS, UH, ON, UH, 5 22.
UM, BUT THE, UM, THE, THE ACTUAL WORK WAS COMPLETED ON FIVE, UH, FIVE.
AND, UH, THERE WAS AN ARGUMENT OF, UM, SOMEONE ELSE'S VEHICLE THAT WAS PARKED THERE LIKE A WEEK LATER AFTER IT WAS ALL DONE WITH CLEANED UP.
AND THEN THAT WAS MOVED IMMEDIATELY.
SO, YOU KNOW, THEY, THEY WERE, UH, THERE WAS AN ADDITIONAL, UM, HALF A MONTH HERE.
HE WAS REFERRING TO THE NEXT CASE, CORRECT? UM, HE'S ACTUALLY REFERRING TO BOTH CASES.
HE'S CLAIMING THAT, UH, IT COMPLIED ON FIVE FIVE, BUT I HAVE A CASE, I HAVE A, THE SAME PHOTOS ARE IN THIS CASE.
IF YOU GO DOWN ONE MORE, THE PHOTO ON THE LEFT IS SOMETHING HE EMAILED ME THAT HE SAYS WAS TAKEN FIVE FIVE THAT SAYS, HEY, MY PROPERTY'S IN COMPLIANCE.
BUT THE PHOTOS ON THE RIGHT THAT ARE ALSO IN THE OTHER CASE FOR THE SAME PROPERTY SHOW THAT THE PROPERTY WAS NOT IN COMPLIANCE ON MAY 11TH AND MAY 15TH.
AND WE DID NOT SEE IT IN COMPLIANCE UNTIL MAY 22ND.
THOSE WAS ARE VEHICLES MY NEIGHBOR PARKED THERE, YOU KNOW, AND I WASN'T AWARE OF, AND HE HAD THEM REMOVED RIGHT WHEN I TOLD HIM TO.
AND SO WE'RE ON ITEM NUMBER 28 NOW, MICHELLE? YES.
AND THIS, THIS CASE, UH, COMPLIED MAY 22ND WITH A,
[02:10:01]
UH, $7,500.ANY COMMENTS, UH, FOR INSPECTOR GERMAN OR ANY, UH, ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR GERMAN OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? MR. MULLEN? UH, YOU SAID THAT THERE WAS A ADDITIONAL FINE ON THE PROPERTY, THE SAME PROPERTY.
SO THE FIRST ONE WAS A 20 2K 2022 CASE.
THIS IS THE, UH, 2026 CASE WITH A DIFFERENT FINE AMOUNT.
IT HAS A FI LIEN AND FINE $250 PER DAY THING, WHICH I GUESS IS 7,500 RIGHT NOW.
I GUESS BECAUSE IT WAS CAPPED OFF BEFORE AND THEN IT'S CHARGED AGAIN BEING YEAH, THAT'S WHAT IT HAPPENED.
I'M SORRY, WHAT'S THE TOTAL OBTAINED IN THIS CASE? IT'S 7,500.
IS IT STILL RUNNING? NO, IT'S COMPLIED.
SO THERE'S NO ACTION BY THE BOARD.
WHAT'S HIS NAME? NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 70, CASE NUMBER 2024 DASH 0 9 2 5.
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 25 15 RIVERVIEW DRIVE.
EXCUSE ME FOR NOT BEING, UM, UH, NOTIFY.
I DIDN'T KNOW THOSE CASE WAS UP.
I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS SOMETHING GOING ON WITH THIS.
UM, I'M SUPPOSED TO HAVE A HEARING FOR THIS CASE.
I SPOKE TO MICHELLE AND I, AND I, I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING FROM RICHARD.
SO WE NEED TO HAVE, UH, THE INSPECTOR TESTIFY FOR THIS CASE.
THIS IS A RUNNING FINES CASE HAS ALREADY BEEN FOUND IN VIOLATION OF THE FINES ARE RUNNING FOR IT.
I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS UP TO THAT.
WE DO AN A, AN A BIANNUAL REVIEW OF THOSE CASES FOR TO, TO ASSESS REASSESS, UH, INSPECTOR ANDRE.
UM, THIS IS A RUNNING FINES CASE.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THIS CASE IN PROGRESS? THERE'S NO ACTION ON THIS CASE BY EITHER PARTY.
THIS IS AN ILLEGALLY SPLIT LOT THAT, UM, THEY OCCUPY, AND HIM AND HIS NEIGHBORS HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING, UM, RECTIFIED.
SO TO HELP THE BOARD UNDERSTAND THIS, THIS PROPERTY USED TO BE MR. MULLENS, AND THIS PROPERTY CONTINUES TO BE MR. MULLENS.
ALL THESE LOTS USED TO BE ONE LOT.
NOW YOU'RE ALLOWED TO SPLIT LOTS ONCE I REMEMBER THE CASE.
BUT THESE LOTS WERE SPLIT THREE TIMES.
AND SO THAT CASE HAS CONTINUED TO GO UNRESOLVED.
AND SO THIS PARTICULAR NUMBER 70 ON YOUR AGENDA RETURNED TO THIS LOT RIGHT HERE.
SO THAT HOUSE SITS ON TWO LOTS.
MR. MULLEN, DO YOU HAVE ANY, UM, QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR ANDRE, OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UH, WELL, UM, THE DEVELOPMENT WAS DONE IN, UH, 2007, UH, BY THE PRIOR OWNERS.
I DIDN'T, YOU KNOW, HAD, I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT.
THE, UH, PLANS, WHICH I, UM, SUBMITTED THE, UH, THE CASE NUMBERS ACCORDINGLY OFF OF THE PLANS THAT WERE APPROVED BY THE CITY AND WENT THROUGH.
SO EVERYTHING WAS ON THE CITY.
THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE APPROVED IT IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM.
UH, ALL THIS DONE WAS, UH, UH, PRIOR TO ME EVEN OWNING IT, IT WAS NEVER PETITION.
SO TO HELP THE BOARD TO UNDERSTAND HIS, HIS COMMENTS IS, AT ONE TIME THESE LOTS WERE ALL TOGETHER.
THESE RIGHT HERE SHOULD REMAIN ONE LOT AS A DUPLEX.
ONE LOT TWO OWNERS, JUST LIKE A CONDO AS ONE COMMON AREA.
SEVERAL UNITS IN THIS CASE, THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ONE COMMON AREA WITH TWO UNITS.
THEY SPLIT IT AND THEY SPLIT IT AGAIN.
SO HIS, HIS CONTENTION IS THAT IT WAS THIS WAY WHEN HE BUILT OR BOUGHT IT HAS NOT CORRECT.
NO, OF COURSE IT WAS D DUPLEX BACK THEN.
UM, FOR THE 25 15 AND 25 13 RIVERVIEW, I'D NEVER EVEN OWNED 25 13.
WERE ARGUING THAT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ONE COMPLETE LOT WITH COMMON AREAS AND TWO UNITS, AND THAT, THAT WAS WAY BEFORE, YOU KNOW, ME EVEN OWNING ANY OF IT.
SO HOW, HOW COULD I EVEN, I, I, BUT THE QUESTION, I NEVER EVEN OWN THE OTHER SIDE.
IT'S A STATEMENT THAT THE CONCERN IS NOT WHETHER YOU'VE CHANGED IT FROM A DUPLEX TO A DUPLEX, THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE.
IT'S THE SPLITTING OF THE LOT.
NOW, THE ONLY SPLITTING THAT WAS DONE WAS THE REAR LOT TO, ON THE LEFT SIDE, UH, SQUARE OF THE PROPERTY WHERE, UH, 25 10 RIVERVIEW DRIVE.
UH, THAT ONE I, I, I BOUGHT AFTER I BOUGHT 25.
[02:15:01]
UM, UH, UH, ACTUALLY I ACQUIRED IT AFTER I, UM, BOUGHT 25 15 WITH MY FATHER.AND THEN, UM, I HAD, UH, SPLIT OFF THE REAR PART, WHICH THEY DIDN'T LIKE.
SO I TOLD 'EM, I SAID, WELL, LOOK, YOU KNOW, I'LL GIVE IT BACK TO THE, THE GUY THAT OWNS 25 10.
AND, UH, SO I JUST GAVE IT TO 'EM TO JUST, TO GET RID OF THIS CASE.
AND THEN IT'S, THAT STILL WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH.
SO I, I LOST OUT ON OWNING THE, THE BACK REAR LOCK, WHICH THAT WAS SPLIT.
AND WE ASKED FOR ADVICE WITH CITY AND COUNTY, AND WE WENT WITH THAT AND THIS, AND THEN IT STILL CAME AFTER ME SAYING THAT, YOU KNOW, THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SITE DEVELOPMENT PLANS, WHICH THERE WAS NO, UM, NO OTHER PLANS.
SO THE FRONT PART, UH, ON, ON THE RIVER SIDE, THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, DONE WAY LONG BEFORE ANYTHING AT ALL THE CASES HE HAS.
THIS SHOULD BE THE EASIEST TO CORRECT.
AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED OF WHAT TO DO.
AND IT'S A SIMPLE APPLICATION FEE.
RIGHT? I REMEMBER THIS CASE AND APPLICATIONS.
BUT THEY HAVE NOT COME TO THE TABLE TO DO IT.
SO, AND THEY'VE BEEN TO COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT TO TALK ABOUT IT, AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT'S EDUCATED THEM, BUT IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN DONE.
AND HOW MUCH IS IT, IS IT SIMPLEST CASE? YES.
I WAS TOLD IT WAS $5,000 AND I NEEDED, UH, UM, OTHER, OTHER DOCUMENTS I HAD TO PAY FOR, WHICH I DON'T HAVE THAT MONEY.
THAT'S WHY I MADE THE COMMENT THAT THIS IS SNOWBALLING, GIVEN ALL YOUR PROPERTIES, THE AMOUNTS ARE INCREASING BEYOND WHAT YOU CAN COME UP WITH.
ACCORDING TO THE CITY, I OWE OVER $150,000 ALL LIENS ON MY PROPERTIES.
AND I CAN'T EVEN SELL 'EM BECAUSE I HAVE AN UMBRELLA LIEN.
AND I, I TRIED TO SELL ONE AND, AND THEY SAID, WELL, I HAVE TO PAY THE FINE OUT OF THE SALE.
AND WHAT HAPPENED WAS THAT THE PROPERTY, AFTER I HAD TO PAY OFF WHAT I OWED ON IT, I'D HAVE TO PAY, PAY MORE MONEY TO SELL IT, AND I'D LOSE MY PROPERTY AND IT WOULD COST ME MORE MONEY.
AND I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO DO THAT.
AND I, I, I, I TOLD HIM, THIS IS MY PROBLEM RIGHT NOW.
AND I WAS ASKING FOR HELP AT THE TIME.
I UNDERSTAND ALL THAT, BUT YOU OUGHT TO PICK THE LOWEST FRUIT, WHICH IS THIS CASE, AND DEAL WITH THIS ONE AND GET IT OFF THE BOOKS SO WE DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT.
HOW MUCH IS IT? BECAUSE I WAS TOLD IT WAS $5,000 PLUS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.
YOU GOTTA GET WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND DO YOUR, UH, APPLICATION FOR SUBDIVISION, WHAT IS IT? VARIANCE OR SOMETHING.
IT WAS A VARIANCE THAT WAS GONNA SUBDIVISION TO VARIANCE.
SO YOU, DO WE HAVE ANY ACTION ON THIS CASE? NO, IT FINE.
CAN, CAN WE SUSPEND THAT UNTIL THIS IS STRAIGHTENED OUT? NO, SIR.
WE THERE, SIR? NO, YOU NEED TO CALL HIM RIGHT AWAY.
IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS TO FIGURE IT OUT.
I, I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS STILL GOING ON.
THIS IS THE LAST OF MR. MULLINS.
ITEM NUMBER 79, CASE NUMBER 2026 DASH 0 0 0 8 8 PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1693 NORTH HARBOR CITY BOULEVARD.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THE PROGRESS IN THIS CASE? MARK, GO.
CAN YOU GO UP, GO BACK A PHOTO? MM-HMM
UH, WELL, AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOS, UM, THESE WERE TAKEN, UM, MONDAY AND TODAY, UH, THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY IS STILL IN BAD SHAPE.
UH, YOU COULD SEE THE, IN THE ORIGINAL CASE, UH, THE, THE VEHICLES WEREN'T THERE.
SO THEY CAME FROM ONE OF HIS OTHER PROPERTIES, UH, WINDSHIELDS.
A LOT OF THE WINDSHIELDS BUSTED OUT.
YOU COULD SEE, UH, WHERE, WHERE THE FENCE IS LEANING OVER, UH, UP IN THE RIGHT HAND, RIGHT HAND CORNER, UP TOP WHERE THE, KIND OF, WHERE THE POOL AREA IS.
UH, YOU SEE, UH, TONS OF OPEN OUTSIDE STORAGE.
UM, HE, HE DID TAKE THE, THE BOARDS OFF THE WINDOWS IN THE FRONT.
I HAD A PHOTO, UH, THAT WAS IN THERE.
BUT, AND HE, UH, I GUESS HE, HE PUT UP SOME SIDING, WHICH WOULD'VE REQUIRED A PERMIT.
BUT, UM, DUE TO THE FACT THAT, YOU KNOW, HE'S BRINGING, STILL BRINGING STUFF IN THE BACK, AND IT'S RIGHT, RIGHT ALONG THE ALLEYWAY, UH, THE CITY'S JUST RECOMMENDING THAT THE FIRE CONTINUES TO RUN.
MR. MOLAND, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR INSPECTOR DURANT OR ANY COMMENTS FOR THE BOARD? UH, YES.
THE OTHER PROPERTY THAT I, I'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK WITH, UH, THE WHOLE SIDE ON US.
ONE, I'VE GOTTEN SO MANY COMPLIMENTS THAT IT LOOKED REALLY NICE.
IT WAS, UH, UH, IT'S ALREADY VERY PRE-PAINTED AND, AND IT LOOKS, YOU KNOW, AMAZING.
THAT'S ANOTHER, THAT'S ANOTHER PROPERTY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? NO, THIS, THIS PROPERTY.
[02:20:01]
IT'S THE FRONT OF HIS.THAT'S WHY I SAY HE, HE CHANGED, HAD THE SIDING CHANGED, WHICH REQUIRES, WHICH REQUIRE, WOULD'VE REQUIRED A PERMIT AS YOU DID NOT GET THE PERMIT FOR.
UM, I DID HAVE A PHOTO UP THERE, BUT WE HAD SOME GLITCHES EARLIER TODAY.
I HAVE A PHOTO ON MY PHONE, I COULD SHOW YOU ALL.
BUT THE POINT IS, SIR, YOU DID WORK AGAIN WITHOUT A PERMIT.
YOUR IMPROVEMENT WAS NOT PERMITTED.
I, I WAS, YOU MADE AN IMPROVEMENT, BUT YOU DID SO WITHOUT A PERMIT.
WELL, I DID GO TO CITY FOR A PERMIT FOR A FENCE, THE FENCE PERMIT.
I WAS TOLD THAT I I, THAT I HAD PLANS, UH, ALL, ALL, UM, YOU KNOW, LAID OUT PERFECTLY.
AND, AND, AND I, AND I WENT THERE TO GET A PERMIT ON, UM, UH, MAY, UH, 15TH.
THEY WOULDN'T ALLOW ME TO DO THAT.
REASON BEING, THEY SAID I HAD TO HAVE A, UM, A SURVEY AND A COMMERCIAL SURVEY IS LIKE $5,000.
I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY.
AND I SAID, WELL, I'M, I'M JUST REPLACING MY FENCE, YOU KNOW, AND I'M JUST MOVING THIS ONE SECTION, UH, SLIGHTLY.
AND IT'S ONLY A FEW PANELS WHERE, YOU KNOW, I, I HAVE TO SECURE IT, YOU KNOW, AND THE PANELS KEPT FALLING DOWN AND I ALREADY HAD THE LUMBER TO DO IT, AND I JUST BEEN ON HOLD TO GET, TO GET THE PERMIT.
AND THAT WOULD'VE COVERED UP ANYTHING THAT WAS ON BAD SITE.
MY, THE VEHICLES, THEY GOT, UM, VANDALIZED, SO THAT'S WHY THE WINDOWS WERE KNOCKED OUT OF 'EM.
BUT I HAVE MOVED A LOT OF TRASH THAT A LOT OF HOMELESS PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LEAVING THERE, AND PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DUMPING STUFF.

YOU KNOW, SO, SO NOTWITHSTANDING THE SIDING, SMALL IMPROVEMENT WITH OR WITHOUT PERMIT, WE'RE LOOKING AT PICTURES FROM YESTERDAY AND TODAY.
THIS PROPERTY'S STILL A SIGNIFICANT MESS.
AND THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS DEFINED RUNS.
COULD WE PLEASE SHOW THE FRONT BOARD ACTION UNLESS THE BOARD WISHES TO STAY? NO, NO.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENING THOUGH, SIR? YOUR FINE ARE ACCUMULATING.
I I AM TRYING TO TALK TO HIM AND, AND I KEEP GETTING FINES HERE AND FINE THERE.
I'M WORKING ON WELL, THAT'S GONNA CONTINUE.
YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT, THAT THAT WILL CONTINUE.
THAT'S WHAT A RUNNING FINE IS.
WELL, UM, THIS FINE STARTED LAST MEETING AND I'M GETTING READY TO COME TO THE MEETING AND I GOT A CALL ON ONE OF MY PROPERTIES, UH, WHERE, UH, IT WAS JUST THE PROPERTY ON THE OTHER SIDE, THIS ONE.
AND ON, ON THAT DAY OF THE, THE HEARING, UH, THE, THE, I HAD TO CALL THE POLICE.
I HAD A, UM, BURGLARY IN PROGRESS AND A, UM, TRESPASS, WHICH IS, IT IS DOCUMENTED UNDER MILL ROOM PD FOR THAT DAY.
AND I CALLED, LEFT A MESSAGE WITH THE, UM, THE, THE, THE TWO, UH, OFFICERS THAT I HAD THE MEETINGS WITH.

SO, UH, I THINK WE'VE DECIDED THAT, UH, IT, THE FINE CONTINUES, SIR.
SO I WANNA REQUEST, UH, TO STATE THE FINES AND, UM, BECAUSE THE FACT THAT, YOU KNOW, I, I'VE BEEN ACTIVELY WORKING ON THIS, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST TAKING ME LONGER.
AND IF YOU JUST GIMME ANOTHER, UH, 30 DAYS TO HAVE IT DONE, YOU KNOW, AND, AND, UM, YOU KNOW, MAYBE, UM, EASE UP ON, ON, YOU KNOW, THE, UM, THE, THE THING FOR THE SURVEY.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL THE BOARD ABOUT THIS UNFINISHED BUSINESS? UH, THERE HAS BEEN SOME PROGRESS, UH, UH, SINCE THE LAST CODE BOARD.
UM, THERE'S THREE SLIDES, UH, UM, UH, SIX PHOTOS.
UH, LAST, UM, HEARING, THERE WAS, UH, FOUR SLIDES WITH EIGHT PHOTOS.
UM, SOME THERE HAS BEEN PROGRESS, SOME OF THOSE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED.
UM, WE STILL NEED TO MAKE SOME MORE PROGRESS.
UH, UH, ONE SET OF LIGHTS, UH, IS ALL THE WAY IN THE BACK CORNER OF THE PROPERTY, UH, AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER, AND IT'S VERY DARK.
A COUPLE OF THE OTHER LIGHTS THAT ARE OUT ARE CLOSE TO DUMPSTERS AND MAILBOXES, SO THEY NEED TO GET, UM, SOME MORE WORK DONE.
UM, THEY HAD A CONTRACTOR, UM, NOT CONTRACTOR.
I, I DON'T, I, MAYBE HE WAS DOING, TOOK A BREAK AND DID SOME OTHER WORK, OR I DON'T KNOW IF, IF THEY'RE GONNA CONTINUE WITH THAT CONTRACTOR, IF THEY'RE GONNA GET ANOTHER ONE.
BUT THIS CITY'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO EXTEND COMPLIANCE UNTIL AUGUST 25TH.

HE, HE SAID WHAT WE'RE DOING, WE'RE TRYING TO STILL FIX THEM AND THE PROGRESS, IT'S WHAT THE, UH, VENDORS IS HAVE ALREADY BEEN DONE, BUT THEY STILL NEED TO FINISH UP WITH THE OTHER LIGHTS.
SO THAT'S A SECURITY ISSUE, CORRECT? YES.
SO, SO DELAYING FIXING THEM, IF YOU HAVE TO PRIORITIZE LIGHTS, I THINK WELFARE, HEALTH AND SAFETY COMES BEFORE NICE TO HAVE LIGHTS.
SO MAYBE THAT'S THE WAY OF HELPING YOU SORT OUT WHAT TO GET FIXED.
BECAUSE RIGHT NOW IT'S UNACCEPTABLE TO HAVE THESE LIGHT BULB.
YES, THE LIGHT BULBS WERE SWITCHED AND SOME OF THEM ARE WORKING NOW AFTER THE LIGHT BULB WAS SWITCHED.
BUT THE ONES THAT, THAT DIDN'T WORK OUT, THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE LIGHT FIXTURE.
AND THEY, WE HAVE TO SEE INTO GETTING PERMITS FOR THAT AS WELL IF WE HAVE TO.
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION.
I MOTION THAT ALTHOUGH THE CI PROPERTY AND ALL RESPONDENTS IN CE 2026, TRIPLE 0 7 7 REMAINS IN NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE BOARD'S PREVIOUS ORDERS THAT THE DATE FOR COMPLIANCE BE EXTENDED UNTIL AUGUST 25TH, 2026.

UH, WHAT IS THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION TO START A FINE OF A HUNDRED DOLLARS A DAY STARTING TODAY? MR. CHAIRMAN, I HAVE A QUESTION.
WHY SO MUCH? IS THIS RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL? THIS IS RESIDENTIAL AND THIS CASE ACTUALLY HAS A CAPPED FINE FROM PAST CASES.

SO THIS, IF YOU NOTICE IN THE BACKGROUND, THE HOUSE ROOF IS NOW FALLING IN.

THE CITY RECOMMENDS STARTING A FINE OF $50 A DAY.
WHY NOT A HUNDRED? IT'S A SAFETY VIOLATION.
IF THE BOARD WOULD LIKE TO GO FOR 100, WELL, THIS IS THE THIRD HEARING OR FOURTH HEARING, AND THE DOOR STILL DOESN'T WORK AND IT'S A FUNERAL PARLOR.
SO YOU OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THERE.
THE REASON FOR THE CITY'S $50 A DAY FINE IS BECAUSE DURING OCCUPANCY FROM PREVIOUS TESTIMONY FROM THE FIRE PREVENTION SECTION, THAT THEY HAVE WHAT YOU WOULD CALL A FIRE GUARD AND THEY WOULD KEEP THESE DOORS OPEN FOR THEM FOR ANY KIND OF OCCUPANCY.
THEY ONLY LOCK 'EM WHEN, UH, THEY'RE CLOSED FOR THE DAY, SO TO SPEAK.
