00:00:46,410 --> 00:00:48,250
After testimony has concluded,

4
00:00:48,810 --> 00:00:51,790
special magistrate Heron will consider the evidence

5
00:00:51,790 --> 00:00:53,190
and issue of ruling.

6
00:00:53,850 --> 00:00:56,330
If you are found in violation of the code,

7
00:00:56,790 --> 00:01:00,950
an administrative fee of $175 will be imposed.

8
00:01:01,430 --> 00:01:04,910
The fee cannot be waived or reduced by the special magistrate.

9
00:01:05,290 --> 00:01:08,310
Special magistrate Heron, you have been provided

10
00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:11,850
with a copy of the minutes from the July 16th,

11
00:01:11,850 --> 00:01:13,610
2026 hearing.

12
00:01:14,490 --> 00:01:18,190
Yes, I have. I reviewed them and they have been signed.

13
00:01:19,050 --> 00:01:21,910
Let the record reflect that the minutes have been approved.

14
00:01:22,650 --> 00:01:26,010
Kindly silence all electronic devices at this time.

15
00:01:26,910 --> 00:01:31,550
Everyone who intends to testify today, please stand and raise your right hand.

16
00:01:35,390 --> 00:01:41,770
Do you swear or affirm that the testimony you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth,

17
00:01:41,770 --> 00:01:43,270
and nothing but the truth.

18
00:01:44,970 --> 00:01:46,490
Thank you, you may be seated.

19
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:57,550
The first case on the agenda is item number one, under certifications, SM26095,

20
00:01:58,590 --> 00:02:03,350
3090 West Oakland Park Boulevard, Officer Angel Smith.

21
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:24,880
Okay, Officer Angel Smith, presenting facility of Oakland Park.

22
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:34,380
This is for case number SM26-095-3090, West Oakland Park Boulevard, owner is

23
00:02:34,380 --> 00:02:39,400
coppofam-TRBix, Robert and Gillian, CBS.

24
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,660
Violation is for section 8.7B, trash, slash graffiti.

25
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:54,280
This is 33,000, not a crew in, original hearing date was 618, 2026.

26
00:02:54,280 --> 00:03:07,440
final amount was $250 per day starting retroactive to the date the violation was first noticed, which was February 13th, 2026 plus $175 admin fee.

27
00:03:10,870 --> 00:03:12,510
Sir Owen, here speak to this matter.

28
00:03:15,380 --> 00:03:16,500
Yes, good afternoon.

29
00:03:17,460 --> 00:03:21,380
Monique Jerome on behalf of Copal, Hanson and Biggs.

30
00:03:22,540 --> 00:03:25,580
Just want to ask do you need a copy of the owner's letter of authorization?

31
00:03:27,540 --> 00:03:32,560
You can provide it to the inspector and we'll enter that into the record.

32
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,800
And do you need a copy of the invoices or?

33
00:03:39,380 --> 00:03:48,400
No, I mean it's in compliance at this time and so what are we doing here?

34
00:03:48,980 --> 00:03:51,060
We're going to request a reduction in the lien.

35
00:03:51,060 --> 00:04:08,240
We believe good cause exists to support our reduction consistent with Florida Statute 162.09 and the City Code Section 28.7B with the three factors to consider concerning our request.

36
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,260
I'll tell you what I generally do, and for those in the audience who potentially are in the same situation.

37
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:32,320
As a general rule, I'll reduce cases that have been coming to compliance down to 10% which in your case that would be down to $3,300 plus $175 admin fee for a total $3,475 payable within 38, is that acceptable?

38
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,460
So, yeah, could we get 60 days to pay?

39
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:36,620
Okay.

40
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,640
Okay, thank you.

41
00:04:38,140 --> 00:04:38,340
All right.

42
00:04:38,860 --> 00:04:46,680
In case, SM-26-095, address record, 3-0-9-0, West Oakland Park Boulevard, owner of record, the Comple Family Trust.

43
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:53,660
Based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, which I will accept into the record.

44
00:04:53,960 --> 00:05:00,340
The staff report can find that the matters properly before the special magistrate find that the property is in compliance with

45
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:29,620
The city code, it was cited for in the notes of violation. That compliance, however, was passed to the date set fourth and set order. As a result, a fine of $33,000 has accrued plus the $175 admin fee, a grant reduction of that amount to $3,300 plus the $175 admin fee, payable within 60 days, if it's not paid within the six days, it will revert back to the full amount. And at that point, city staff can record an order to that effect.

46
00:05:29,620 --> 00:05:31,140
and it will become a lien against the property.

47
00:05:32,300 --> 00:05:33,180
Any questions?

48
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:34,300
Thank you.

49
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:34,920
Best of luck.

50
00:05:43,010 --> 00:05:54,750
Next is item number 13, under new cases, SM261561881 Northwest 31st Court, Officer Gilbert Vanero.

51
00:05:56,660 --> 00:06:02,080
Code Inspector Vanero on behalf of the city, a presenting case summer SM26156.

52
00:06:02,260 --> 00:06:05,740
The property address is 1881 Northwest 31st Court.

53
00:06:05,740 --> 00:06:08,260
owner of the record according to BCPA.

54
00:06:08,740 --> 00:06:16,200
It's Cyboros SFR holding LLP, mailing addresses 600 gallery of parkways,

55
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:17,940
sweet 300 Atlanta, Georgia.

56
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,400
This is not a homestead property.

57
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,880
Surface was obtained by certified mail posting of the property in City Hall.

58
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:28,240
This case was open on May 12th of 2026 by my observation.

59
00:06:28,740 --> 00:06:31,360
The following steps were conducted to obtain compliance.

60
00:06:33,140 --> 00:06:38,360
Notice of violation was issued and posted on 512th of 2026.

61
00:06:38,940 --> 00:06:41,720
The property was cited for the following city code ordinances.

62
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,480
Section 24.65 unlicensed vehicles.

63
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:50,440
It's prohibited to park and store an unlicensed vehicle at this residential property.

64
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:55,560
There was contact with the property owner and anyone to reference to this property.

65
00:06:56,020 --> 00:06:59,980
The city is requesting 30 days to comply or $150 per day.

66
00:06:59,980 --> 00:07:06,640
I'm submitting as evidence for the case file, notice a violation, photos depicting the properties,

67
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:13,880
condition of legal posting, BCPA printout, notice to appear affidavitive service and supporting evidence.

68
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,200
There is representation here for this case.

69
00:07:18,260 --> 00:07:19,860
State your name for the record, please.

70
00:07:20,340 --> 00:07:22,340
Good afternoon, Kevin Diaz on behalf of the property owner.

71
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,560
Okay, you've heard the staff recommendation.

72
00:07:26,460 --> 00:07:27,640
Do you have any questions?

73
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:36,000
Do you want to dispute their allegations that set forth the notice of violation in the case file?

74
00:07:36,700 --> 00:07:39,020
Yes, so we spoke beforehand.

75
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,860
I can show the magistrate photos.

76
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:51,440
I originally came here with the idea that we were in compliance and after a discussion with the code enforcement officer,

77
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:57,460
the position is that as of this morning, the car reappeared.

78
00:07:57,860 --> 00:08:01,900
Now, all the feedback that we've gotten is that the tenant has complied this issue.

79
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:10,180
Now, if that's not the case, which tenants sometimes lie, then we need to start action to remove them.

80
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:21,240
Yeah, I understand, and certainly, the officer can testify, I do know that as a matter of routine procedure,

81
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:28,040
in this city as well as virtually every other city that has a code enforcement system.

82
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,920
The inspector will go by the properties that are scheduled for hearing either the day

83
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,300
before or the day of to determine whether or not there's compliance or not.

84
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,640
So was that inspection conducted?

85
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:40,980
Yes.

86
00:08:41,660 --> 00:08:42,780
And the vehicle was still there.

87
00:08:43,500 --> 00:08:48,960
But again, it may not be there tomorrow because I go by these properties on a daily basis.

88
00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:49,740
On a regular basis.

89
00:08:49,740 --> 00:09:17,360
So, you know, you may have a tenant who put it politely as shell game, you know, they do appear to be, you know, operable, but, you know, from the photographs there in the city's file, there are at least three vehicles there on the dates and the photographs where the vehicles were there that don't have any plates.

90
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:20,800
and so that becomes the violation.

91
00:09:21,900 --> 00:09:25,880
You know, I don't have any problems with, you know,

92
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,920
granting and ordering as recommended by staff 30 days.

93
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:36,440
And it's just a matter of, you know, working with the inspector

94
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,220
to verify compliance.

95
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,480
You know, I obviously have to take him at his word.

96
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,620
I'm not saying that they, you know, the photographs are the photographs,

97
00:09:45,620 --> 00:09:49,940
perhaps, which I will accept in the record, but if he's saying that as of today's date,

98
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:56,760
then it may be as you indicated an issue with the tenant, and that's outside my authority.

99
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,920
I'm just interested, if I make format.

100
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:28,240
And I have no reason to question the code enforcement officer. I personally never inspected the property, so I can't definitively say one way or the other. My thought, after speaking with the code enforcement officer, if there is a way to roll this next month, to see either a, if the tenant did comply, and if I can produce more evidence, one or the other, or if he didn't, and he's lying, then we need to initiate the eviction action, which is going to be substantially more than 30 days.

101
00:10:28,860 --> 00:10:32,740
The seven-day notice the cure alone is going to take us some time and then we still need to file.

102
00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:41,480
Yeah, and we're really just slicing the pie a different way, you know, instead of right to left, left to right.

103
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,960
We still end up with the same amount of slices in the same place.

104
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:56,280
question, because what's going to end up happening is, I give you the 30 days, which

105
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:05,080
is what the recommendation staff is, and we come back here, and this is between you

106
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:11,400
and your client, they're paying you to come back second time, as opposed to the 30 days.

107
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,460
The 30-day time period to come back is the same.

108
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:21,920
So either it's in compliance within the next 30 days or it's not, and the fine would begin to run.

109
00:11:22,780 --> 00:11:32,700
Or we postpone it, and again, the client is potentially out of the money to have you come back again.

110
00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:40,660
and I, as often as I'm over here, sometimes I'm over there and we do what the client tells

111
00:11:40,660 --> 00:11:41,160
us to do.

112
00:11:41,780 --> 00:11:45,100
So, does staff have any objection to that?

113
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:53,320
I mean, you are going to have to interact with the code officer on a regular basis because

114
00:11:53,320 --> 00:12:00,180
again, it may be, unfortunately, not the first time I've seen this here in other locations.

115
00:12:00,180 --> 00:12:03,180
It's just a shell game where the

116
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:10,920
the tenant is moving the vehicles when they know you're coming out or someone on behalf of landlords coming out.

117
00:12:11,460 --> 00:12:12,820
And they just and they reappear.

118
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:18,340
I don't know if he's selling the vehicles working on them or what but.

119
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,760
When I spoke for the first time with the tenant.

120
00:12:22,460 --> 00:12:24,200
Those two vehicles are where on license.

121
00:12:24,660 --> 00:12:27,060
Those vehicles were for the son and an FU.

122
00:12:27,060 --> 00:12:32,560
And he asked me to give him an extension because he was trying to get the paperwork and so forth and get them registered.

123
00:12:32,820 --> 00:12:40,240
I did. That was a courtesy notice. Then afterwards, when I saw that it didn't happen, I went ahead and issued the notice violation.

124
00:12:40,680 --> 00:12:46,780
But to be fair, there's only one vehicle left there is the Acura. That's left. The other cars are gone.

125
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:55,020
They were unlicensed. But again, if you had to stand up at the intersection to continuing the matter for 30 days.

126
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:00,660
As I said, we're, to some degree, back to the same place in 30 days.

127
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:12,660
Either it's been resolved or you're coming back before me because you have a problem with the tenant, not necessarily with the city, so to speak.

128
00:13:13,420 --> 00:13:19,120
Based on the evidence and the communication between the officer and the tenant, the city would not object to another extension.

129
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:29,360
All right, then in case SM 26156, address record 1881 Northwest 31st Court, owner of record,

130
00:13:29,820 --> 00:13:38,620
Serebrus SFR holdings to LP, we'll continue the matter for 30 days, obviously if you

131
00:13:38,620 --> 00:13:44,740
have it obtained a card from the inspector, make sure you do before you leave and follow

132
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:55,320
up because he will have to go out and re-inspect prior to the hearing next month and hopefully we'll get

133
00:13:55,320 --> 00:14:00,800
disposed of and resolve before then. We won't have to come back or I will. You won't have to come back.

134
00:14:01,340 --> 00:14:05,700
Thank you. A question, do we know that hearing date now or that's a notice in this?

135
00:14:06,900 --> 00:14:15,280
Next date is September 17th, same time, same location, same bat channel.

136
00:14:16,980 --> 00:14:18,220
Thank you, everyone.

137
00:14:19,060 --> 00:14:19,380
That's a lot.

138
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:42,360
Next is item number 8, under new cases, SM26150, 1001 West Oakland Park Boulevard, Officer Angel Smith.

139
00:14:48,670 --> 00:14:52,970
Is there someone here on behalf of Lowe's?

140
00:14:54,250 --> 00:14:57,350
This is Lowe's home center, right?

141
00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:59,870
Sorry, when I heard the case number, it wasn't tracking.

142
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:29,820
That's fine, hold on. Before we move on, this was on the agenda last month, I believe, or the month before. And we pulled it, you all, staff pulled it, but at the time I had mentioned that this particular matter creates a problem for me, because my firm does work for lows and other jurisdictions. So I have a conflict

143
00:15:29,820 --> 00:15:36,720
But normally what would happen and the situation this matters, then we'll get referred

144
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:42,260
to the city's code enforcement board, which doesn't have the problem I have, and you

145
00:15:42,260 --> 00:15:44,020
would then have to appear before them.

146
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,180
Obviously, we're in an open forum.

147
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:52,840
You have the opportunity to say whatever you want to staff in the way of trying to resolve

148
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,520
the matter before you leave here today or find out what needs to be done.

149
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:12,700
But for the reasons I stated on the record, I, you know, ethically I am prohibited from hearing this matter and it would have to be rescheduled and reset for the Code Enforcement Board because of the conflict of interest I have through my law firm.

150
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:19,860
Understood. Anna Barton on behalf of Lowe's. I was not aware and I don't believe there's any

151
00:16:19,860 --> 00:16:23,960
paperwork showing that this has been called for hearing in the prior month, so I'm not sure

152
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:24,740
what that's about.

153
00:16:26,420 --> 00:16:34,740
Well, you can take a look at the file. There is the notice of violation hearing as well as

154
00:16:34,740 --> 00:16:41,780
the underlying notice of violation. What would normally happen during the course of the hearing

155
00:16:41,780 --> 00:16:53,500
is staff would part of their presentation, their testimony would indicate or testify that they followed the statutory and code procedures for noticing the hearing and that's in the file.

156
00:16:54,840 --> 00:17:11,100
You know, again, historically 99% of the time 99.9 when they testify that they followed the procedures for noticing it's that it did go to the corporate center, not necessarily locally.

157
00:17:11,100 --> 00:17:21,840
because that's what shows up on the Broward County Property Pressure's website as the address and that's what you have to follow pursuant to Chapter 162.

158
00:17:22,500 --> 00:17:25,700
So, you know, there was a notice, there was notice issued.

159
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:32,180
Right. And perhaps the Code Enforcement Officer can help me here. Was this issue, was a hearing issue last?

160
00:17:32,540 --> 00:17:38,320
Because we've been in contact and there's, this is the first hearing notice that I'm aware of in this case altogether.

161
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,540
I was not aware that there was a hearing notice or that this is a second time that it's been set.

162
00:17:42,740 --> 00:17:55,140
There was a prior hearing scheduled either last month, no, or a month before, and it wasn't held staff withdrew the matter and reset it.

163
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,880
Okay, this indeed is the first hearing.

164
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:05,160
This is the first hearing, okay, but we never received notices of a prior hearing and I did have an opportunity to look at the record that

165
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:10,960
that the code enforcement officer put together and I don't see that there was any notice for

166
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,620
a July hearing. So I just want to make sure we're on the same page here.

167
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:22,220
This notice went out. Give me a moment. I'll tell you. Let me give this.

168
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,240
And maybe this is all for not if it's going to be reset, but I just want to make sure that

169
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,700
I'm not missing information.

170
00:18:30,140 --> 00:18:35,100
I have that the violation notice and the

171
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:42,500
the date case established was June 18th and then the next document we have is a notice

172
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:47,160
of hearing that sets today as the hearing date.

173
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,060
So the notice of violation

174
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:54,560
was

175
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:17,600
issued on 6, 18, 20, 26 appears and the notice of hearing

176
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:18,620
I

177
00:19:28,890 --> 00:19:36,790
don't see the date but it does state on it that the hearing is today on compliance

178
00:19:36,790 --> 00:19:52,010
I just needed to be obtained, sorry, that a copy of this notice of violation hearing was mailed delivered to the above violator at the address state of below on or before 8, 10, 20, 26, right.

179
00:19:52,270 --> 00:19:55,370
So that's why I'm confused about the July hearing that was never noticed.

180
00:19:55,370 --> 00:19:59,710
So the July hearings and I don't have it in front of me may have been

181
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:29,980
Council before notice has even went out. So if that was the case, you would never receive a notice. Okay. That tracks with the record shows, because it shows and actually I do have questions about that because in what was. Well, before I get into the record and questions given the conflict, so how do we proceed here? Do we proceed and we just have the code board? What will happen is that a new notice of hearing will be generated and it will be sent. I will tell you that unless you may.

182
00:20:31,420 --> 00:20:47,980
arrangements here, and believe me, I, because, as I said to the previous attorney, a lot of times I'm over there, and part of the problem that I experience with some of my corporate clients is that notices go to Virginia.

183
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:54,260
And, you know, next thing I know and I'm getting requests from one of my colleagues, hey, can you go to hearing tomorrow?

184
00:20:54,260 --> 00:20:58,180
because that's the first, we know of it here locally.

185
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:04,620
So, you can make arrangements with the inspector to receive a copy.

186
00:21:05,060 --> 00:21:08,680
But in order to comply with the state statute and the city code,

187
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:19,600
notice will have to be sent to the corporate address that's set forth on the Broward County Property Preasers website, which is in North Carolina.

188
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:39,100
So, you know, and I don't know how it trickles down internally as I said before and that same issue, but it will be scheduled and I don't know when the next code board meeting meets they may be able to staff maybe should be able to tell you that I

189
00:21:43,420 --> 00:21:46,420
believe the next code board need to be knocked over but I don't have the exact date.

190
00:21:46,420 --> 00:21:52,040
My recommendation would be to get with Ms. Smith and maybe explain what has to be done exactly.

191
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,720
And more than likely, you'll be able to comply before that hearing we've been happened.

192
00:21:56,100 --> 00:21:57,280
There'll be no ruling today.

193
00:21:57,820 --> 00:22:00,700
Okay, so there's no fine, there's no ruling, there's no, nothing that will happen today.

194
00:22:00,980 --> 00:22:05,700
So I will save everyone's time and not get into the specifics of the case or what's going on.

195
00:22:05,860 --> 00:22:09,420
And then I'll be in touch with Officer Smith.

196
00:22:10,180 --> 00:22:11,780
All right, well thank you.

197
00:22:15,750 --> 00:22:20,450
Hold on, ma'am, don't leave, hold on a minute.

198
00:22:22,110 --> 00:22:24,170
Did I say lows or home depot?

199
00:22:25,130 --> 00:22:25,610
Lows.

200
00:22:25,990 --> 00:22:26,410
Lows.

201
00:22:26,970 --> 00:22:27,750
Last time.

202
00:22:28,910 --> 00:22:33,570
Because home depot is also on the schedule and I'm trying, now when I see it, it's literally

203
00:22:33,570 --> 00:22:36,050
happens to be the one just before your case.

204
00:22:36,630 --> 00:22:39,910
I'm trying to think, where do I have the conflict?

205
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,020
Was last time?

206
00:22:44,620 --> 00:22:48,320
And maybe that's why you have a recollection of it being punted one time.

207
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,160
Can you take a, just don't leave. Let me, let me inquire.

208
00:22:59,180 --> 00:23:02,460
If you give me a moment, I

209
00:23:04,670 --> 00:23:08,910
will ask my assistant to check very quickly.

210
00:23:08,910 --> 00:23:09,790
give

211
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:23,560
me a moment.

212
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:53,040
Hey, I need to do something very quickly. Check to see through our system whether

213
00:23:53,040 --> 00:24:01,540
or not we represent home depot or lows or both. I know we have a conflict with at least one of them.

214
00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:09,010
Okay, and then either email me or text me. Okay, thanks.

215
00:24:11,900 --> 00:24:15,320
All right, let's we'll call back

216
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:28,800
In fact, case SM26156, no, I'm sorry, SM26150 in a moment, and call the next one, please.

217
00:24:30,380 --> 00:24:31,320
Not Home Depot.

218
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,860
Oh, the next one is Home Depot as well, is there, who's the representative?

219
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:43,680
Same issue, ma'am, so I'm checking to see whether or not I have a conflict with one of the two.

220
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:59,960
So I'm trying to find out which one it is so I can let one or both of you leave and as the same thing, it'll be scheduled before the City's Code Enforcement Board, which staff can provide you that information.

221
00:25:04,780 --> 00:25:12,540
So, I understand conflicts. Yes. Yeah, let's go with the next one.

222
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:25,300
Next is item number eight, under certifications, SM-26-021-3560, Northwest 5th Avenue, officer Gilbert Vanero.

223
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:26,320
In

224
00:25:37,390 --> 00:25:45,590
respect of an arrow on behalf of the city, presenting case SM 26021, property address of 3560, northwest 5th Avenue,

225
00:25:46,930 --> 00:25:50,930
owner of record is Samir and Fatima Abdulay.

226
00:25:52,710 --> 00:26:03,030
The actual amount of $17,850 is not accruing. They have complied as of August 17th of 2026, and

227
00:26:03,030 --> 00:26:04,170
Mr. Samir is here.

228
00:26:04,170 --> 00:26:05,150
Sorry,

229
00:26:08,930 --> 00:26:09,470
your name for the record.

230
00:26:09,910 --> 00:26:10,290
Good afternoon.

231
00:26:10,890 --> 00:26:12,130
My name is Samir Abzeyer.

232
00:26:12,350 --> 00:26:14,010
I'm the owner of 35, 16.

233
00:26:14,170 --> 00:26:14,910
Norwoods, Vitaven.

234
00:26:15,390 --> 00:26:15,890
Okay.

235
00:26:16,190 --> 00:26:17,310
You are in compliance.

236
00:26:18,050 --> 00:26:18,550
Yes.

237
00:26:19,050 --> 00:26:19,730
What do you want?

238
00:26:20,230 --> 00:26:21,050
What do you want?

239
00:26:21,090 --> 00:26:21,770
Same thing?

240
00:26:22,390 --> 00:26:22,670
Yes.

241
00:26:23,010 --> 00:26:23,250
Okay.

242
00:26:23,450 --> 00:26:24,030
All right.

243
00:26:24,550 --> 00:26:28,110
As I said before, and again, for the benefit of anyone in the audience,

244
00:26:28,110 --> 00:26:32,950
if you come before me on any of these accrued fines,

245
00:26:34,210 --> 00:26:37,150
standard reduction is 10%, which in your case would mean

246
00:26:37,150 --> 00:26:49,110
I mean, instead of $17,850, $175 admin fee, you would owe $1,785 plus $175, which is a total

247
00:26:49,110 --> 00:26:52,110
$1,960 payable within 30 days, is that acceptable?

248
00:26:52,710 --> 00:26:52,990
Understood.

249
00:26:53,430 --> 00:26:53,650
All right.

250
00:26:54,210 --> 00:27:00,530
So in case I'm 26, 021, address record, 3560 Northwest Fifth Avenue, owner of record,

251
00:27:00,530 --> 00:27:04,890
some year, I would add, and not to mess some year.

252
00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:06,670
I'm not sure if I got them right.

253
00:27:08,270 --> 00:27:13,250
I am going to accept into the record the staff report and find that the matter is properly before the special matter

254
00:27:13,250 --> 00:27:18,430
and based upon the MIS test money presented here this afternoon, I'm going to find that the special matter

255
00:27:18,430 --> 00:27:24,410
matter is prior order finding the property to be in violation of Section 5.3A permits required so the code of a

256
00:27:24,410 --> 00:27:31,670
has been complied with, but was complied with after the date set forth in the special magistrate order.

257
00:27:31,990 --> 00:27:37,370
As a result, the final $17,850 is accrued plus $175 Edmund Fee.

258
00:27:37,690 --> 00:27:44,010
I'm going to reduce that amount down to $1,785 plus $175 Edmund Fee for

259
00:27:44,010 --> 00:27:46,950
total $1,960 payable within 30 days.

260
00:27:46,950 --> 00:27:51,690
If it's not paid within this 30 days, it'll revert back to the full amount plus the Edmund Fee.

261
00:27:51,690 --> 00:27:55,250
and staff will record an order of that effect, and it'll become a lien against property.

262
00:27:55,830 --> 00:27:56,310
Any questions?

263
00:27:56,930 --> 00:27:58,210
Best of luck, thank you.

264
00:28:04,050 --> 00:28:16,110
Next is item number 11, under certifications, SM26026490 northwest 37th Street, Officer Gilbert Venero.

265
00:28:28,300 --> 00:28:36,760
Inspec the Venero on behalf of the city, presenting case SM26026 property address of 490 northwest 37th Street.

266
00:28:38,940 --> 00:28:42,020
This property was cited for work without permit.

267
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,480
It has been in compliance as of 717 of 26.

268
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:51,000
There's a non-accruiting amount of 13,200 and the property owner is here.

269
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,120
Your name for the record, sir?

270
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,300
Tim, I face a billion owner.

271
00:28:58,780 --> 00:28:59,020
Okay.

272
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:00,320
And you're the property owner?

273
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:00,860
Yes.

274
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:01,320
Okay.

275
00:29:01,460 --> 00:29:02,100
You're in compliance.

276
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:03,800
Finally, sir.

277
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:04,160
Yes.

278
00:29:04,580 --> 00:29:08,900
And I would love to ask you to pay attention to that.

279
00:29:08,900 --> 00:29:11,860
that I was victim of contractor fraud,

280
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:15,240
and I was doing everything that I could

281
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,040
to make it and compliance,

282
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,140
and I was never intended to do any illegal things.

283
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:22,780
And if it's possible, sir,

284
00:29:23,460 --> 00:29:26,840
if you can waive this entirely, that would be great.

285
00:29:28,740 --> 00:29:32,800
I understand and I command you for asking,

286
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:34,220
I mean, it's nothing wrong for asking,

287
00:29:34,340 --> 00:29:36,720
but I have to treat everyone the same way.

288
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:59,860
Otherwise, I get accused of unequal treatment, and therefore, I will give you the same relief that I have offered to the other property owners who have come before you, which is to reduce your accrued fine down to 10%, which in your case would be $1,320 plus the $175 admin fee for a total of $1,495.

289
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:06,660
$1, which is payable within 30 days. Okay. It sounds good. All right, it's like I don't have a lot of options.

290
00:30:08,300 --> 00:30:18,840
Case SM-26-026, address a record, 490, Northwest 37th Street, owner of record, Tumaphay is a billion. I hope I got that right.

291
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:26,900
Going to find that the base upon the notice testimony presented here this afternoon, I will accept into the record staff report.

292
00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:56,720
We find the matters properly before the special magistrate, make a determination that the previous order of the special magistrate has been complied, but came into compliance past the deadline set forth and said order as a result of a fine of $13,200 has accrued as no longer accruing plus $175 admin fee will reduce that down to $1,320 plus $175 admin fee for total $1495 payable within 30 days.

293
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:11,940
If it's not paid within that time frame, then it'll revert back to the original out and then staff will record an order to that effect in the public records that will become a lien of the property against your property, which I'm sure you don't want, so just make sure you go ahead and get that paid within the 30 days. Thank you for coming.

294
00:31:12,540 --> 00:31:12,840
All right.

295
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:25,420
Next, the item number 9, SM-26-022-2819 North Oakland Forest Drive CH Officer Gilbert Venero.

296
00:31:35,550 --> 00:31:44,550
Inspector Venero presenting case, SM-26-022, property address of 28-18 North Oakland Forest Drive Club House.

297
00:31:45,990 --> 00:31:52,090
This is a violation for Section 5.3, permits required.

298
00:31:52,630 --> 00:31:58,730
The property has an amount of $8,500, not accruing.

299
00:31:59,330 --> 00:32:05,630
I believe that it was abated and you gave it on the last hearing of 30-day continuance.

300
00:32:06,230 --> 00:32:10,210
But as of yet, I believe that the permits have not been cured.

301
00:32:10,210 --> 00:32:10,330
All right,

302
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:16,160
ma'am, your name for the record.

303
00:32:16,460 --> 00:32:18,220
Good afternoon, Felicia Strode, Lakeview Club,

304
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:19,340
condominium association.

305
00:32:25,890 --> 00:32:29,840
I remember you coming before me.

306
00:32:30,180 --> 00:32:36,420
We, as staff said, we held the fine nabance pending submission

307
00:32:36,420 --> 00:32:38,880
of the proper paperwork for the permit.

308
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:40,900
What's the hold up?

309
00:32:40,940 --> 00:32:44,380
We had some communication issues, I believe,

310
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,880
and exactly what needed to be completed at the property.

311
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,500
We've been able to, since then, we've been talking with Antonio a lot.

312
00:32:53,780 --> 00:32:59,320
We have a new vendor that is handling everything he's working with, not only the chief plumbing inspector,

313
00:32:59,860 --> 00:33:01,080
but also the Department of Health.

314
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,400
He is working also with an engineer.

315
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,000
They are getting the permits together.

316
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:12,220
We were just recently notified of additional items that need to be included,

317
00:33:12,380 --> 00:33:15,140
including the backflow devices, we need to separate.

318
00:33:15,140 --> 00:33:30,440
So it seems to be continuous additions to what needs to be done and they've not been able to focus on just the permits because there are a lot of other issues that are encompassing this and we want to get them all resolved at once.

319
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:44,760
My contractor has asked if we could get an extension to get the permits submitted to get everything in order so we are 110% in compliance with both Department of Health and the City of Oakland Park and the permits that are required.

320
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,640
and everything is up to par.

321
00:33:47,860 --> 00:33:53,880
He asked me if I could request 90 days because we do still have to do permit submission.

322
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:06,060
Obviously, the request for 90 days, I'll make an inquiry of staff to see what their position is on this.

323
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,420
But I'll make one observation before staff responds.

324
00:34:10,420 --> 00:34:37,140
I understand and appreciate the concept of trying to wrap up everything at one time, but I will give you some unsolicited advice, but the city is independent of the Department of Health, and while you may have issues with them, and I certainly encourage you to resolve those.

325
00:34:37,140 --> 00:34:45,580
You know, at the end of the day, you know, I only have jurisdiction over the city's case.

326
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:52,640
And let's assume for the moment that based upon your request, I give you additional time.

327
00:34:53,940 --> 00:34:59,560
But yet you're still, and your contractor's still running into problems with the Department of Health, not the city.

328
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:13,360
And at that point in time, as they say, you have to cut, or fish cut bait, how you're going to proceed, because the city's going to start, the fines will start accruing.

329
00:35:14,100 --> 00:35:15,040
So-

330
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:20,020
I have three pools and two hot tubs, so it's a lot to control right now.

331
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:20,280
Okay.

332
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,640
So I do ask for consideration.

333
00:35:25,700 --> 00:35:29,680
Staff is I would refer this to my supervisor he has

334
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:34,900
Thank you, sir. Is the pool currently open?

335
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:36,400
Yes, it is.

336
00:35:36,540 --> 00:35:40,620
It's currently open even though one is to our health department is

337
00:35:40,620 --> 00:35:43,300
Allowing this pool to be open. Yes, yes, absolutely.

338
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,340
They have they have no problem with this pool.

339
00:35:45,540 --> 00:35:47,920
We've got like I said, there's three pools, two hot toads

340
00:35:48,620 --> 00:35:51,380
And we're trying to tackle all of them all of the above

341
00:35:51,380 --> 00:35:54,420
and it's been a long process.

342
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,600
It's been very challenging because of everything involved.

343
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,080
We just secured the new vendor this month, actually,

344
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,700
the Russell's Pool Company, just this month,

345
00:36:03,780 --> 00:36:04,900
and he's been working with Anthony.

346
00:36:05,660 --> 00:36:08,380
And we, it was brought to our attention that all three pools

347
00:36:08,380 --> 00:36:10,100
need to have a separate backflow device

348
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:11,120
so we had to look into that.

349
00:36:11,860 --> 00:36:14,540
And it's just been a lot of back and forth

350
00:36:14,540 --> 00:36:15,960
of this needs to be done now.

351
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:17,820
Okay, so now we have to stop what we're doing

352
00:36:17,820 --> 00:36:23,240
and jump into that immediately to satisfy the request.

353
00:36:24,380 --> 00:36:32,300
The city would be agreeable to 60 more days at this point, with fine starting to accrue again after the 60th day to build on components.

354
00:36:32,580 --> 00:36:46,700
So that's what we'll do, we'll give 60 days and again, I would purely because it's all I have control over that I'm involved in is you may want to focus on

355
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:59,780
the city's end, I can't speak for the Department of Health what they may or may not assess in the way of potential fines for whatever they deemed to be their violations.

356
00:37:00,860 --> 00:37:14,000
So, you know, 60 days if you got to get the permit in for the city work and then we can consider the additional things.

357
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:28,740
But if it's not brought into compliance within that 60-day time frame, the fine will start accruing again retroactive to the initial date, so there's going to be that much more of a fine accrued.

358
00:37:29,700 --> 00:37:32,740
We will be done with the health department today, literally today.

359
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,140
So tomorrow they will focus on the permit requirements and everything else.

360
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,200
I'll tell them to put backflow on the back burner.

361
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,900
Okay. Okay. All right. In case SM-26-022,

362
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,840
address 28-19 North Oakland Forest Drive owner

363
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:59,040
record, Oakland Forest Property Owners Association. I have reviewed and the updated staff report.

364
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:05,860
It's in the record. Fund matters properly before the special magistrate. In grant, the request,

365
00:38:05,860 --> 00:38:12,660
the of both the applicant and the city or the prop owner of 60-day continuance.

366
00:38:14,060 --> 00:38:21,360
If the required permits are not obtained within that 60-day time period, then the fines

367
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:29,860
will begin to accrue retroactive back to the original date and at some point staff can

368
00:38:29,860 --> 00:38:31,960
bring it back for certification at that point.

369
00:38:33,020 --> 00:38:43,280
So, you know, wish you the best and obviously stay in contact with the inspector to make sure that you get in compliance.

370
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,260
All right, best of luck.

371
00:38:45,540 --> 00:38:46,020
Okay, thank you.

372
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:46,460
Have a great day.

373
00:38:46,460 --> 00:38:46,940
Thank you.

374
00:38:47,100 --> 00:38:47,180
You too.

375
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:53,460
I'm sorry.

376
00:38:55,260 --> 00:38:55,920
Oh, here.

377
00:38:56,140 --> 00:38:56,460
Let me see.

378
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:13,760
Hey.

379
00:39:14,940 --> 00:39:15,800
You have an answer?

380
00:39:17,580 --> 00:39:24,380
Yeah, I'm in the middle of the here, but I'm in the middle of the hearing were both this issues come up so I need an answer now, but

381
00:39:41,340 --> 00:39:42,340
they both pop up,

382
00:39:53,410 --> 00:39:55,290
okay,

383
00:39:57,370 --> 00:39:59,350
all right, yeah, all right.

384
00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:31,820
Both names, before the record, we're talking about agenda items 7 and 8 on the agenda. I've been informed that either current or past colleagues of mine have represented both entities. They appear to have been, at least some of them closed, but we don't know for sure.

385
00:40:31,820 --> 00:40:40,700
So just in a matter, in a month's a caution, I'm just going to punt and have both matters referred to the city's

386
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:47,780
code enforcement board to remove that concern of that issue. And so, you know, you all can also

387
00:40:47,780 --> 00:40:53,600
move forward with some level certainty and staff can move forward with certain levels of a level of

388
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:59,380
certainty. And I just, you know, obviously tell you all everything. The same thing I've said to

389
00:40:59,380 --> 00:41:05,540
And everyone who's come before see if you can work things out with staff before you have to go before the code enforcement board and

390
00:41:05,540 --> 00:41:09,820
save yourself and your clients some time and trouble, best of luck, both of you.

391
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:10,620
So-

392
00:41:10,620 --> 00:41:15,940
The city withdrawals, SM26149, and SM26150 from this agenda.

393
00:41:16,380 --> 00:41:17,580
All right, best of luck.

394
00:41:17,940 --> 00:41:18,500
Thank you for showing.

395
00:41:31,890 --> 00:41:32,690
Two in one time.

396
00:41:32,870 --> 00:41:33,170
One hearing.

397
00:41:33,950 --> 00:41:35,270
It's the first time that that's happened.

398
00:41:39,110 --> 00:41:39,550
No.

399
00:41:41,720 --> 00:42:00,060
I'm surprised that, because as you all know, we run these through our internal conflict check before I even come here and I'm not sure whether they didn't get flagged beforehand.

400
00:42:00,060 --> 00:42:13,620
Next, the item number 10, under certifications, SM-26-025, 193-0 Northwest, 33rd Court Officer Gilbert Bernero.

401
00:42:22,070 --> 00:42:28,850
Inspector Bernero presenting case SM-26-025, property address of 1930, Northwest, 33rd Court.

402
00:42:29,750 --> 00:42:32,810
Whole North Record is Christopher Lake, okay?

403
00:42:32,810 --> 00:42:39,310
Okay, the actual violation has been complied as of July 17th of 2026.

404
00:42:39,670 --> 00:42:42,110
There's a non-accruing amount of $7,000.

405
00:42:42,690 --> 00:42:45,290
And a representative is here on behalf of the owner.

406
00:42:50,020 --> 00:42:51,080
Sir, your name for the record.

407
00:42:51,500 --> 00:42:53,560
Fred Hussler, on behalf of the owner.

408
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,960
Okay, you've heard what I've offered to the other property owners.

409
00:42:58,100 --> 00:43:00,460
I'll make the same offer to you.

410
00:43:00,460 --> 00:43:03,080
Or maybe a little bit more, I think, than that.

411
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,940
We have, I spoke to officer Richter.

412
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:13,400
Officer Richter has an email on file that the permit was supposed to be issued on the 9th.

413
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:19,940
But the chief building inspector had went out of town before this happened and it was supposed to be occurred.

414
00:43:21,100 --> 00:43:24,520
Well, I understand I appreciate that.

415
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:44,660
All I have to base, I can base my determination on and what's in the record is when was the permit issued and that's, you know, the circumstances of when or how it might have been delayed, you know, that's part of the process of getting a permit from any governmental jurisdiction.

416
00:43:44,660 --> 00:43:55,780
So, you know, you have, staff has stated that it was issued from the further date.

417
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,160
Is there any further reduction?

418
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,620
The date was actually corrected to reflect 717.

419
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:07,680
So, that is the correct date taken in consideration that the chief, you know,

420
00:44:11,020 --> 00:44:15,900
I would assume that someone else could have issued the permit on behalf of the city.

421
00:44:16,340 --> 00:44:23,020
Is there only one person within the city who issues building permits or approves building permits on behalf of the city?

422
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:30,640
Again, the code officer, Aaron Richter, I spoke with Patricia, the chief structural inspector.

423
00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:32,460
She went on vacation for two weeks.

424
00:44:32,460 --> 00:44:40,620
She advised me that this permit should have been issued the day she, before she left.

425
00:44:40,860 --> 00:44:43,480
She did not get to it, but it was issued.

426
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:48,680
It was passed in her book as issued and passed a plan review.

427
00:44:49,260 --> 00:44:51,960
That is why the, in what was that date?

428
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:59,460
July 17th. Okay. I confirmed with her. I thought he said July 9th. I'm sorry. No. Okay. Yeah.

429
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:11,260
And, okay, no problem. And what was the, what was the file? It would be reduced down to $700 plus the $175 admin fee for a total of $8, $75 payable within 30 days.

430
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:22,120
Yes sir, thank you sir. All right. This case, SM-26-025, address record 1930, northwest 33rd court, owner of record,

431
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:26,440
Christopher Lake, based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon.

432
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,720
I will accept into the record the staff report and find matters properly before the special

433
00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:35,940
magistrate, and in said case, make a determination that the previous order of the special

434
00:45:35,940 --> 00:45:41,020
magistrate finding the property being violation of Section 5.3A permits required city code of

435
00:45:41,020 --> 00:45:46,640
Oakland Park has been complied with but was complied with past the date set forth and said order.

436
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:55,020
As a result, a fine of $7,000 is accrued, plus the $175, I'm sorry, $175 admin fee.

437
00:45:55,260 --> 00:46:01,100
I will reduce that down to $700, plus the $175 admin fee for

438
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:04,080
total of $875 payable within 30 days.

439
00:46:04,460 --> 00:46:08,680
If it's not paid within that time frame, then the fine will revert back to the full amount.

440
00:46:09,260 --> 00:46:12,840
And staff can report in order to that effect in the public records of Broward County.

441
00:46:13,340 --> 00:46:15,300
And the same shall constitute a lien against the property.

442
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:30,080
Next is item number two under new cases, SM 26144, 1510 Northwest 44th Street, Officer Tetskardina.

443
00:46:37,420 --> 00:46:46,140
Officer Tetskardina, City of Ocompara, case number SM 26144, property addresses, 1501 Northwest 41st Street.

444
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,360
The owner of record is Mr. Juan de Benitez.

445
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:53,960
Service was obtained by a certified mail posting the property and city hall.

446
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,980
This case was open based on my observation.

447
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:07,100
The property was cited for Section 2464B1 commercial vehicle and Section 2480i3 grass parking residential.

448
00:47:07,700 --> 00:47:12,980
On May 12th, 2026, I noticed a violation was issued to Mr.

449
00:47:13,140 --> 00:47:17,180
Lombanitas for noncompliance of the above mentioned violations of the municipal code.

450
00:47:17,700 --> 00:47:23,400
My observations, while patrolling my sign zones, I observed multiple vehicles parked on the grass

451
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,580
at the property on several different occasions over the course of several weeks.

452
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:32,360
I initially issued a courtesy notice advising the residents of the violation and

453
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,220
requesting that they discontinue parking on the grass.

454
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:41,420
Despite the courtesy notice and the notice of violation that I issued, the violations continued to occur.

455
00:47:42,020 --> 00:47:44,840
The city is requesting the following.

456
00:47:45,060 --> 00:47:49,800
Do the recurring nature of this violation and the prior warning and violation issued.

457
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,320
the city's requesting a one-time fee of $250,

458
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,380
regardless of compliance in an order to remain in compliance.

459
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,860
I am submitting as evidence, the case file includes,

460
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,720
the notice of violation, photographs, BCPA printout,

461
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,220
notice to appear,

462
00:48:11,150 --> 00:48:13,310
let me step back here for one second.

463
00:48:15,650 --> 00:48:19,290
The fines, I did amend the fines.

464
00:48:19,730 --> 00:48:22,390
So due to the recurring nature, I'm not gonna go through it that.

465
00:48:22,390 --> 00:48:32,830
We're going to give them 15 days to correct the violation, and if they don't correct, it would be $150 per day.

466
00:48:33,630 --> 00:48:36,850
So I'm going to strike the recurring nature of the violation.

467
00:48:37,810 --> 00:48:43,310
The violation again, so I submitted the affidavit service, the code case history report, and

468
00:48:43,310 --> 00:48:50,390
the code case history details report, photographs of the code case postings, USP tracking number, and this is the city's case.

469
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:01,020
May I have your name for the record?

470
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,640
Veronica Sorano, and I'm the owner's daughter.

471
00:49:04,140 --> 00:49:04,340
Okay.

472
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,640
You've heard, yeah.

473
00:49:09,180 --> 00:49:10,380
I get it. I hear it.

474
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,920
Yeah. So, you know, I've looked at the photographs

475
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:14,960
and you're more than welcome to.

476
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:16,520
It's okay, trust me. I know.

477
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:23,960
You know, I think what I'm hearing from staff

478
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,140
and I'm just sharing with you from what I'm,

479
00:49:26,140 --> 00:49:33,860
is that this appears to be a recurring issue and needs to be taken care of and looked at the progress.

480
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:38,780
I mean, we're not talking, you know, a lot of times I'll have a case like this where

481
00:49:38,780 --> 00:49:40,860
there's one car that's parked on the grass.

482
00:49:41,820 --> 00:49:42,460
I know.

483
00:49:44,140 --> 00:49:45,780
They're parked all over the yard.

484
00:49:46,100 --> 00:49:50,800
Yeah, I know. This is something I spoke to my dad about, too, because he has a business and he

485
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:59,920
has his work tricks on his personal card, but I tell him it's too many cars. But, you know, I, I, yeah, so, you know, they, they,

486
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:29,620
The commercial vehicle, the box truck, can't be there at all, other than just, you know, you know, whoever it is coming for lunch, it can't be parked there on a permanent basis or overnight. So, commercial vehicles are according the city zoning code need to be maintained and parked overnight and kept in commercial zoning districts, not residential neighborhoods. And so, and then,

487
00:50:29,620 --> 00:50:35,600
And separate from that, obviously, is the multitude of cars in the park all over the grass.

488
00:50:40,460 --> 00:50:48,440
I'm going to find, unless you tell me something compelling, which I've not heard so far, I'm going to find the property and

489
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:52,560
violation and give you the 15 days, and hopefully, it gets resolved.

490
00:50:53,860 --> 00:51:00,680
In theory, the cars can be moved, as soon as you leave, pick up the phone and call, hey, they need to be removed.

491
00:51:04,820 --> 00:51:12,260
And I'm not saying because I guess in theory I don't know necessarily the zoning district.

492
00:51:12,260 --> 00:51:20,400
You could potentially expand the driveway to add some of the things that I was going to say.

493
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:21,020
I'm sorry?

494
00:51:21,260 --> 00:51:22,260
That's what I was going to say.

495
00:51:22,300 --> 00:51:25,860
That was one of the things I wanted to ask today just for my dad because I've been told

496
00:51:26,660 --> 00:51:31,940
If we want to expand if there's a problem, like is there certain?

497
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:33,600
You know what I mean?

498
00:51:33,700 --> 00:51:38,200
You would have to talk to the zoning department.

499
00:51:38,380 --> 00:51:48,100
The zoning department, which is you can while you're here, you can make an appointment to speak to someone about what that process is.

500
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:54,980
You might be able to get space for two additional cars on the driveway, my guess.

501
00:51:55,340 --> 00:52:01,820
But if there's more than that, there's going to be a more permanent solution as to where those vehicles are maintained.

502
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:03,960
It has to be, they can't be on the grass.

503
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:09,920
I would suggest you bring a copy of a survey, if you can get a copy of a survey.

504
00:52:10,300 --> 00:52:14,760
When you talk to somebody in zoning, because that way they'll be able to help you a lot better.

505
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:15,160
All

506
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:27,940
right, then in case SM-26-144, address record 1510, by the way, Alistair Cretty and you said 1501, not 1510.

507
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,340
I believe it's 1510.

508
00:52:35,450 --> 00:52:40,170
Okay, 1510, Northwest 41st Street, owner record 1 beneath this.

509
00:52:40,990 --> 00:52:47,330
I'm going to accept into the record staff report and find that the matter is properly before the special magistrate.

510
00:52:47,330 --> 00:52:54,870
And basically on the honest testimony presented here this afternoon, I'm going to find that the property and property are in violation of section 26

511
00:52:55,370 --> 00:53:03,270
I'm sorry 24.64 b1 commercial vehicles and section 24.80 i3 grass parking residents is owning district

512
00:53:03,270 --> 00:53:09,610
The city code of Oakland Park and give the property under 15 days to come into compliance by removing the vehicles

513
00:53:10,250 --> 00:53:16,330
If not a fine of a hundred fifty dollars a day for each day and non-compliance thereafter and also

514
00:53:16,330 --> 00:53:19,050
So assess the $175 admin fee.

515
00:53:19,910 --> 00:53:23,390
So 15 days, the vehicles have to be moved in 15 days.

516
00:53:23,590 --> 00:53:31,050
You can then meet with staff and talk to staff about a long-term solution, but in the mean time, that's okay.

517
00:53:32,490 --> 00:53:32,630
All right.

518
00:53:34,350 --> 00:53:40,070
I did finally get a response from my assistant.

519
00:53:40,070 --> 00:53:41,230
But the

520
00:53:55,080 --> 00:54:00,360
Home Depot, Home Depot, Home Depot USA, Inc.

521
00:54:01,060 --> 00:54:04,460
Loads home centers with different names as well.

522
00:54:08,210 --> 00:54:11,260
We have done more side builds, more comfortable.

523
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,840
So, yep.

524
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:19,860
Next is item number three, under certifications, SM-26031.

525
00:54:19,860 --> 00:54:25,320
1, 4, 7, 5, 0, Northeast, 6th Avenue, Officer, Wilson-Kentero.

526
00:54:29,710 --> 00:54:38,690
Specter-Kentero, on behalf of the city, I'm presenting case S-N26-Z-O-3-1 for the property located at 47.50, notice, 6th Avenue.

527
00:54:39,530 --> 00:54:45,470
Code case, 2025-0917-978.

528
00:54:46,290 --> 00:54:50,070
The property was cited for 5.38, permits required.

529
00:54:51,130 --> 00:54:54,610
they only permits are still pending and

530
00:54:54,610 --> 00:54:59,950
in reviews is the interior renovations and is 15,000

531
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:11,340
On 500 dollars accruing, the original hearing was 2019-2026 to be complied by 619-2026. The fine amount is $250 per day.

532
00:55:18,980 --> 00:55:36,040
Your name for the record, sir? Good afternoon. Are you Sharma? Okay. And you are one of the property owners? Oh, yes, sir. Okay. So you originally had a hearing back in June.

533
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:44,660
And based upon the amount of the fine, $250, my educated guest, were you here?

534
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,080
My older brother was.

535
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:55,360
Okay, all right, you need a permit, so what's going on?

536
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:56,800
Because you're still not in compliance.

537
00:55:57,580 --> 00:55:57,740
Correct.

538
00:55:58,540 --> 00:56:03,860
So we have permits submitted, we're working with an engineer from March 6th.

539
00:56:03,860 --> 00:56:10,000
I have like an agreement signed with the engineer. We have windows and driveway permits

540
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:15,580
already closed. The only permits that are left are interior renovations like Mr. Wilson

541
00:56:15,580 --> 00:56:23,360
said and the engineer is actively working on revisions and I have like a proof like paper

542
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:29,900
that he gave me as well and a letter signed by the engineer and he says that any moment

543
00:56:29,900 --> 00:56:31,220
and now we should have the permits closed,

544
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,440
but we are out of good faith still working.

545
00:56:34,300 --> 00:56:35,460
As soon as we got the violation,

546
00:56:35,580 --> 00:56:36,800
we've been working with the engineer.

547
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:43,180
And yeah, I don't have the letter signed by the engineer,

548
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:44,700
I don't know if you want to take a look at it.

549
00:56:45,500 --> 00:56:50,140
You can, here's the issue that we have.

550
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,020
Procedurally, the matter before me

551
00:56:54,020 --> 00:56:59,160
is to make a determination whether you're in compliance or not.

552
00:56:59,900 --> 00:57:08,200
because we already had a hearing where the violation was deemed to exist and you were given

553
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:18,460
a period of time to come in compliance. I'm suspecting that your older brother didn't tell you

554
00:57:19,100 --> 00:57:28,740
what I'm about to say to you and again for the benefit of everyone here is if you are here on

555
00:57:28,740 --> 00:57:31,280
of violation, which is the first step in the process.

556
00:57:32,540 --> 00:57:38,180
If I always tell everyone, if you're running into trouble getting a permit or getting

557
00:57:38,180 --> 00:57:43,280
whatever approvals it is that you may need to come into compliance, you need to make

558
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:48,140
sure that you're talking to the code enforcement officer and you're asking for an extension

559
00:57:48,140 --> 00:57:48,800
of time.

560
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:54,860
Because if not, we get to the stage we're at here today, on your case, where three months

561
00:57:54,860 --> 00:57:58,840
months have gone by and nothing has been, you know, the process has not been completed.

562
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:07,060
And in a vacuum now, I'm being asked by staff to, and under the state's law and the city code,

563
00:58:07,420 --> 00:58:14,440
to make a determination that you're still not in compliance and authorize staff to record an order to that effect and

564
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:20,560
that a $15

565
00:58:22,580 --> 00:58:27,580
,000, $15,500 fine has already accrued.

566
00:58:27,580 --> 00:58:31,440
and continues to accrue on a daily basis in the amount of $250.

567
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:40,520
And I can tell you the reason why that I assessed the $250 fine when your brother was here is you know,

568
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:45,600
you did work without a permit period and so no one knows if that work is safe.

569
00:58:46,220 --> 00:58:52,340
No one knows if it's up to code and people in lives are at risk and yes you're working with an engineer.

570
00:58:52,340 --> 00:58:59,740
I don't know if he's, if that letter indicates that he's already reviewed.

571
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:07,420
And you know, because I know sometimes the, particularly with the building certification,

572
00:59:08,060 --> 00:59:14,340
the engineer has to submit a record, a letter saying it's safe while they've finished the improvements.

573
00:59:14,980 --> 00:59:16,220
I don't know if that's what they've provided.

574
00:59:16,220 --> 00:59:23,500
Mr. Sharma, let us, you get 10 days to go and confirm this is not dangerous or something

575
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:29,780
by a licensed type, preventing any danger to the people and he let us go inside.

576
00:59:30,580 --> 00:59:34,580
The other thing you want to take in consideration because he lives in New York, he's not in charge

577
00:59:34,580 --> 00:59:42,600
of the property, Mr. Sharma has a major, major surgery in New York, he's preventing to do

578
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:43,100
a lot of stuff.

579
00:59:43,100 --> 00:59:45,240
I mean, there's been a communication with me.

580
00:59:45,580 --> 00:59:59,640
I don't have an objection to, you know, according to the current representative that they feel that the permit will be issued within, you know, next.

581
01:00:00,300 --> 01:00:30,060
Five to ten days, giving time on both sides, which then would bring them into compliance. I don't have an objection to continuing the matter for 30 days, but I'm telling you that if your engineer is saying, hey, it's going to be done, you need to make sure that it's done because then you can come back and potentially ask for reduction of the accrued fine. Because again, as I said before, you're at 15,000,

582
01:00:30,060 --> 01:00:34,440
in 500 and crewing on $250 a day.

583
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,060
So 30 days is going to be that much more.

584
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,420
So the sooner you can get the permit issued,

585
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:43,560
it'll stop the bleeding, so to speak,

586
01:00:43,820 --> 01:00:45,920
and then you can come back and ask for

587
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:47,580
a reduction of the accrued fine.

588
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:48,460
Okay.

589
01:00:49,180 --> 01:00:53,200
And I had a question because we are actively work,

590
01:00:53,620 --> 01:00:54,920
like we've been working with the engineer

591
01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,480
for almost nine months now, I believe,

592
01:00:57,480 --> 01:01:10,600
Is it possible to stop the cruel of the fine and just to stop the cruel of the fine and we'll show like I like to think that we've been showing good faith just we've been working with the

593
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:10,760
industry.

594
01:01:11,220 --> 01:01:26,580
And I understand what you're saying my concern or the issue that I have is that as I said before I give the admonition or the statement that look if you're

595
01:01:26,580 --> 01:01:30,700
running into trouble, make sure you talk to the officer and get back before me.

596
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:39,640
And so, you know, you didn't, and why you have been working with staff, I will tell you

597
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:43,920
that if you had come back before me, and they had said the same thing and you said the

598
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:48,620
same thing, I would have given you an extension of time up front and no fines would have crude

599
01:01:48,620 --> 01:01:49,240
to begin with.

600
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:50,700
But, you know, here we are.

601
01:01:50,700 --> 01:01:56,820
We're doing this as they say, and anyone take this wrong, ask backwards, okay?

602
01:01:58,140 --> 01:02:03,800
The extension of time should have been requested up front, rather at this point in time.

603
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:11,800
So does staff have any issues with holding the fine in the bants during the 30-day period?

604
01:02:13,180 --> 01:02:18,140
I mean, I can tell you that if you don't, it's going to revert back to the full amount.

605
01:02:18,140 --> 01:02:21,200
Now, within 30 days, you said?

606
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:32,900
Yeah, so if you don't get it resolved and the permit issued, when we come back here in 30 days, it'll revert back.

607
01:02:32,980 --> 01:02:43,600
So the $250 per day will be put back into the pot, so to speak, if I hold in the bands during that time period.

608
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:53,360
I understand, I mean, so like Mr. Wilson said, my brother's the one who was in charge of like the construction and he had a really bad back acts in his wedding week.

609
01:02:54,300 --> 01:03:02,740
And he's in New York right now. I'm from New York, we're all from New York and we bought the house for our parents and they haven't been able to move in just because the permits are having been closed.

610
01:03:02,740 --> 01:03:15,480
So right now he's still recovering from back surgery and like he told me about the letter a couple of weeks ago and he was in contact with Mr. Wilson up until you know the accident.

611
01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:24,840
So I honestly don't have the full picture of like what should be done and what shouldn't be done. I'm just all I know is that out of good faith we have been working with the engineers.

612
01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:35,380
If I knew that we needed to request the extension, I know my brother did, we would have definitely just kept in contact with Mr. Wilson and asked for that extension.

613
01:03:36,780 --> 01:03:44,220
So I was hoping that we can maybe get that fine, stop the crewing.

614
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:51,080
I understand that we can't wave it, but also like an extension as well on the permits.

615
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:56,340
The differential between now and 30 days is going to be $750.

616
01:03:57,140 --> 01:04:05,160
I give you the mitigation request, assuming we come to compliance.

617
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:07,860
So-

618
01:04:09,690 --> 01:04:19,050
City would go with the 30 day continuous, however we would like to find to continue when they come back before you for the certification, it could be looked at at that time.

619
01:04:19,050 --> 01:04:22,370
Yeah, I mean, let's keep the fine accruing.

620
01:04:22,470 --> 01:04:26,330
Now, just as if you heard one of the cases before,

621
01:04:26,830 --> 01:04:29,690
if you get the permanent issued, let's say in two days,

622
01:04:30,070 --> 01:04:33,190
or three days, whatever, it stops then.

623
01:04:34,170 --> 01:04:37,890
And so, again, that's the incentive to get the engineer

624
01:04:38,590 --> 01:04:42,030
and to complete the process and get the permit issued.

625
01:04:42,450 --> 01:04:46,910
So you're not at risk for that entire time.

626
01:04:46,910 --> 01:04:59,790
So we'll grant the request and the agreement of staff for 30 days, but we'll continue to find a cruel and we'll, you know,

627
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:30,650
Consider that when you come back for the mitigation, okay? Do you have any questions? I did have one more question, or when the permits are issued like the application numbers, does that count as an like an issuance or are you talking about like full approvals? Well, in your case, because it's an after the fact it's okay, there's a master permit and this,

628
01:05:30,650 --> 01:05:43,890
There's the master permit covers everything, but you have a particular trade or a component of it, probably, if it's an injure, my guess is structural interior.

629
01:05:48,950 --> 01:05:55,550
So, you know, it would be, for promises of calculating the accrual define, it's the date

630
01:05:55,550 --> 01:05:56,850
the permit is issued.

631
01:05:57,310 --> 01:05:57,930
Okay.

632
01:06:00,330 --> 01:06:08,520
So, in case I'm 26-031, I will accept into the record the updated staff report, which

633
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:16,920
includes the property owner's letter from their engineer and find that the matters properly

634
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:18,220
before the special magistrate.

635
01:06:18,780 --> 01:06:28,320
And in case I'm 26-031, address the record, 47-15-Northy-6th Avenue, owner of record, the

636
01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,720
Sharma family, we'll give a 30-day

637
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:36,960
continuance to the case for an update,

638
01:06:37,700 --> 01:06:40,000
September 17th, 2026.

639
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:43,240
All right, best of luck.

640
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,640
Next item is number 14.

641
01:06:48,300 --> 01:06:51,680
Under certifications, SM26091,

642
01:06:52,180 --> 01:06:55,080
190 on Northwest, 33rd Court,

643
01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:57,140
Officer Gilbert Venero.

644
01:07:12,590 --> 01:07:20,710
Inspector of the Nero, presenting case SM, 26091, property address, 1990, northwest 33rd court.

645
01:07:22,170 --> 01:07:30,210
Violation was section 23.1A abandoned vehicles, and section 24.65 unlicensed vehicle.

646
01:07:30,990 --> 01:07:38,190
An accruing amount of 15,200, okay, and it has not come into compliance.

647
01:07:39,130 --> 01:07:41,470
There was more than one vehicle at one point.

648
01:07:41,470 --> 01:07:45,750
One of the vehicles is along one of the property.

649
01:07:46,530 --> 01:07:52,310
But as you see in the picture, there's a boat there that has a tree growing out of it.

650
01:07:52,710 --> 01:07:58,650
With no tag and the tires all down to the ground, and it's still the same way it hasn't changed.

651
01:07:59,690 --> 01:08:01,630
So it's the boat that's-

652
01:08:01,630 --> 01:08:01,970
Yes sir.

653
01:08:02,130 --> 01:08:03,410
Okay, everything else is.

654
01:08:04,370 --> 01:08:04,530
All right.

655
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:18,780
I remember, I do see the picture and kind of, I have to laugh, and don't take it personally.

656
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:26,520
But not often that you see a tree growing in the middle of a boat part in a driveway.

657
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:27,620
So what's going on?

658
01:08:27,940 --> 01:08:34,860
I mean, you're up to $15,200 in fines, because of that boat.

659
01:08:34,860 --> 01:08:41,560
So, registration, I have completed the registration already, that has been done as two weeks ago.

660
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:44,220
For the vessel?

661
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:45,120
Yes.

662
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:45,560
Okay.

663
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:48,280
But it's not the decals on it.

664
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:48,820
It is.

665
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:49,680
Okay.

666
01:08:49,900 --> 01:08:50,180
Hold on.

667
01:08:50,780 --> 01:08:51,780
Hold on.

668
01:08:52,780 --> 01:08:53,540
Let's.

669
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:53,760
You.

670
01:08:56,280 --> 01:09:06,280
So, my understanding is that the trailer has to

671
01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:16,380
to have an up-to-date registration, and the vessel needs to be updated registration, and you have both, okay, provide them to the inspector.

672
01:09:27,370 --> 01:09:29,670
I mean, yes, we'll enter it.

673
01:09:30,170 --> 01:09:34,110
Can you make copies of the other side of the boat, so he doesn't see the actual.

674
01:09:34,570 --> 01:09:39,730
Can you, hold on, one at one at a time, can you make copies of those?

675
01:09:39,970 --> 01:09:45,390
Because otherwise we, you know, they can't be made part of the record, and that's part of the compliance

676
01:09:45,390 --> 01:09:51,610
determination. As long as you either today are in some point he says he's

677
01:09:51,610 --> 01:09:54,830
I take a photograph of them I guess. Can you take a photograph on the can you

678
01:09:54,830 --> 01:09:56,550
show me a photograph on the other side of the board?

679
01:10:00,530 --> 01:10:06,130
All right. So I date

680
01:10:08,530 --> 01:10:32,690
that he acquired the decals as long as the as long as the decals are affixed. And we can calculate when the date on the registrations updated as the date of compliance. Right. And then work our way backward on what the amount of the crude finest. Right. And also,

681
01:10:32,690 --> 01:10:37,530
So the trailers, the tires are flat on the ground if you look at the pictures.

682
01:10:38,110 --> 01:10:45,730
And I understand what's

683
01:10:47,940 --> 01:10:50,720
been cited was unlicensed vehicles.

684
01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:59,940
So just before you leave here, what staff is saying, you got to get that thing.

685
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:06,960
you have to get the trailer in a state where it's obviously it's now licensed

686
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:10,460
but you also need to get it to where it's operable otherwise we're gonna be

687
01:11:10,460 --> 01:11:15,560
back here there actually as it looks I know what it looks like but it is

688
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:20,520
operable okay you can tow the vehicle you can tow the vessel so right now yes I

689
01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:24,520
can tow the vessel I have actually three tires one tire that is flat out of the

690
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:34,240
whole people, which I will as far as a tree that has been taken care of the boat. But it is, I'm

691
01:11:35,710 --> 01:11:36,350
sorry, it's just tough.

692
01:11:38,370 --> 01:11:42,830
So one of the things the reason I have that boat is, I was in a boat accident

693
01:11:42,830 --> 01:11:48,670
about 10 years ago, and I haven't been able to drive a boat for the last two years. It's a boat

694
01:11:48,670 --> 01:11:53,810
where two of my best friend passed away that we used to work on with it. So I really don't want to get

695
01:11:53,810 --> 01:11:59,810
rid of it because the last thing I remember of them actually PSO was there to rescue me on

696
01:11:59,810 --> 01:12:06,640
that day in Daniel Beach so I'm trying to put in compliance but for the past two years I've been

697
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:12,140
unemployed so it's been very tough since I haven't been living here I've been traveling to fine

698
01:12:12,140 --> 01:12:19,720
work traveling to Ocala back and forth I was staying living there six days a week I didn't see the notice

699
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:24,920
when it was first posted I saw the second notice for the meeting unfortunately I couldn't make the

700
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:31,440
meeting because I just got finally got a job and it was my first training. And if I would

701
01:12:31,440 --> 01:12:36,340
have missed that, that's a job I haven't had for two years. And that's the reason it looks

702
01:12:36,340 --> 01:12:39,420
that way. 13, 4. All right.

703
01:12:44,150 --> 01:12:49,650
So, again, just optics. I understand.

704
01:12:50,510 --> 01:13:17,490
A piece of unsolicited advice, if you haven't already, and I think you may have said that you did, but yank that tree out, get that tree out there, because I suspect, I don't know for sure, that someone probably in your neighborhood goes by your home on a regular basis and says, no, our neighborhood, I don't want to save.

705
01:13:19,390 --> 01:13:34,570
But clear as a person in our neighborhood that doesn't like minorities, they have contacted every single time, every single person in my neighborhood does a minority, there's a person down the block, they never call on that their boat is there on registered flat tire on the grass.

706
01:13:34,570 --> 01:13:34,770
Yes.

707
01:13:35,350 --> 01:13:43,330
Look, you're doing from the perspective of what you've been cited for, you're done everything that you need to do, you're in compliance.

708
01:13:43,590 --> 01:13:53,350
All I can suggest to you is try and clean up, wash the pressure clean if you have the ability to outside that boat, remove the tree.

709
01:13:53,350 --> 01:14:03,330
So it looks, you know, just because it's sometimes perception becomes reality for people.

710
01:14:03,910 --> 01:14:09,990
But based upon what you've provided, you are in compliance, you're still, we came into compliance

711
01:14:09,990 --> 01:14:20,170
past the deadline, but instead of a $15,200 fine, based upon the date you're down to $13,400.

712
01:14:21,130 --> 01:14:25,030
What I've done is for everyone else will do the same thing for you.

713
01:14:25,110 --> 01:14:36,310
I'll reduce that down to 10%, which would be $1,340 plus the $175 admin fee, which is my math sucks.

714
01:14:36,590 --> 01:14:40,350
Excuse my language, that's why I'm an attorney, not an engineer.

715
01:14:44,130 --> 01:14:47,650
$1,515, how long would you need to pay that?

716
01:14:47,650 --> 01:14:53,690
So like I said I just started working I've been unemployed for the past two years I don't know

717
01:14:53,690 --> 01:14:59,410
What's the longest you can give me but I'm really six years back on my feet can it possibly 90 days

718
01:15:03,470 --> 01:15:33,390
90 days, okay? And, again, again, so I don't see you again, the optics of cleaning up the boat will improve your chances of not being back before me, probably pretty significantly. I'll accept these into the record, update the staff report, find that the matter is properly before the Spus Mastery, and in case I'm 26-091.

719
01:15:33,390 --> 01:15:39,270
the address of record 190 North West 33rd Court and the owner of record Thomas Rodriguez.

720
01:15:39,570 --> 01:16:03,270
I'm going to find that the special master's prior order, finding the property to be in violation of Section 23.1A, abandoned vehicles and Section 24.65 unlicensed vehicles, city code of open part have been brought in compliance, but we're brought into compliance past the deadline set forth and said order as a result of fine of $13,400 plus the $175.

721
01:16:03,270 --> 01:16:13,490
I will reduce that down to $1,340 plus the $175 admin fee for

722
01:16:13,490 --> 01:16:19,450
total of $1,515, do and payable in 90 days.

723
01:16:20,310 --> 01:16:21,750
Thank you, and best of luck.

724
01:16:22,070 --> 01:16:22,330
Thank you.

725
01:16:25,540 --> 01:16:33,090
Next is item number one, under new cases, SM26143, 4029 Northeast,

726
01:16:33,090 --> 01:16:37,110
The least six Avonion officer, La Tarsha Ricks.

727
01:16:37,710 --> 01:16:43,490
Sorry, before we move, Mr. Thomas, just keep in mind that if you don't come into compliance,

728
01:16:43,750 --> 01:16:46,570
don't pay within 90 days, it'll go back to the full amount.

729
01:16:46,770 --> 01:16:48,110
You mean just for the tire for it?

730
01:16:48,650 --> 01:16:49,230
I'm sorry?

731
01:16:49,510 --> 01:16:53,390
No, no, you're in compliance if you don't pay the fine, okay?

732
01:16:54,150 --> 01:16:56,530
All right, yes, next.

733
01:16:56,530 --> 01:16:57,570
Code

734
01:17:09,510 --> 01:17:10,770

735
01:17:11,470 --> 01:17:12,310
Thank you.

posting it to Property and City Hall.

741
01:17:28,870 --> 01:17:30,970
This case was opened based on a complaint.

742
01:17:31,770 --> 01:17:37,150
The property was cited for Section 2480, B3C of street parking.

743
01:17:37,830 --> 01:17:44,290
to the rear parking area was in a state of disrepair with visible cracks and holes that required attention.

744
01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:50,530
All cracks and holes in the rear parking need to be repaired to restore surface to a safe condition.

745
01:17:52,510 --> 01:17:58,790
Section 8.7A overgrowth, there was overgrowth for the property that needed to be cut and maintained.

746
01:17:59,450 --> 01:18:01,570
I have not made any contact with the owner.

747
01:18:01,570 --> 01:18:06,310
On 4th, 14, 20, 26, a complaint was filed with the City of Open Part.

748
01:18:06,750 --> 01:18:11,570
I investigated the complaint and the case was opened on 4th, 28, 20, 26.

749
01:18:12,230 --> 01:18:16,510
As of 8th, 20, 20, 26, the overgrowth has been complied.

750
01:18:16,710 --> 01:18:20,070
However, the off-screen parking has not been in compliance.

751
01:18:20,710 --> 01:18:25,090
The City is asking for 30 days to comply for $150 per day.

752
01:18:25,530 --> 01:18:29,510
I'm submitting evidence in the case file, including notice of violation,

753
01:18:30,610 --> 01:18:35,370
photographs, BCPA, printout, notice to appear after Davis of service,

754
01:18:35,970 --> 01:18:42,670
co-case detail report, photos of posting, USPS tracking report, and this is the city case.

755
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:48,280
What was the recommended file, 150, okay.

756
01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:50,120
Your name for the record, sir.

757
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:51,280
There's the firm Martinez.

758
01:18:51,940 --> 01:18:57,020
And your relationship to the property and the property owner, which is Montana Realty Management LLC.

759
01:18:57,420 --> 01:18:58,580
I am the manager at the body shop.

760
01:18:58,580 --> 01:18:59,240
Okay.

761
01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:05,580
Have you seen the photographs you know, do you have an understanding of what we're

762
01:19:05,580 --> 01:19:06,160
talking about?

763
01:19:06,540 --> 01:19:08,260
Yeah, they're coming on Wednesday to get that 10-curve.

764
01:19:08,580 --> 01:19:18,000
Okay, so you think that, have they told you they can get the generically referred to it

765
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:20,060
black topping done within 30 days?

766
01:19:20,940 --> 01:19:21,380
Okay.

767
01:19:24,900 --> 01:19:30,220
I will, if it gets taken care of, all that will be doing payables, the hundred cents

768
01:19:30,220 --> 01:19:33,740
75 dollar admin fee, I will say to you what I've said before.

769
01:19:34,220 --> 01:19:40,300
Make sure you're talking to and communicating with the officer, she indicated before that there's been a lack of

770
01:19:40,300 --> 01:19:44,860
confirmation, I would suggest that you, if there's any issues whatsoever,

771
01:19:45,380 --> 01:19:49,820
that you reach out to her, get scheduled to come back for me to ask for additional time.

772
01:19:50,100 --> 01:19:59,360
So we're not, in the next stage, imposing a fine against your property or the shop property.

773
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:29,340
Do you have any questions? All right. In case SM-26143, the address of record is 4029 Northeast 6th Avenue, the owner of record is Montana Realty Management LLC. I am going to accept into the record, the staff report, and find that the matters properly before the special magistrate. Based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, including the representative of the property owner. I'm going to find that the property owner are in violation

774
01:20:29,340 --> 01:20:41,220
of Section 2480B3C Off-Street Parking, the violation of Section 8.7A Overgrowth has been compliant according to staff.

775
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:53,960
Give the property under 30 days to come to compliance with the failed to do so within that time frame, a fine of $150 a day for each day and noncompliance thereafter and also assess the $175 admin fee.

776
01:20:55,370 --> 01:21:06,150
Next is item number four, under certifications, SM-26-057, 490 power line road, officer Tets

777
01:21:06,150 --> 01:21:06,650
Cadena.

778
01:21:09,990 --> 01:21:15,030
And for those of you in the audience to see you understand, we take the cases in the

779
01:21:15,030 --> 01:21:16,270
order in which you signed up.

780
01:21:16,490 --> 01:21:22,370
So there's unfortunately a poor soul out there who's going to have to sit through most

781
01:21:22,370 --> 01:21:28,090
if not all of this hearing until we get to your matter, but let me tell you I can tell

782
01:21:28,090 --> 01:21:33,310
you with 100% certainty that even after you are gone, whoever you may be, we will still

783
01:21:33,310 --> 01:21:39,230
be here hearing cases because every time there are a number of property owners who don't

784
01:21:39,230 --> 01:21:42,650
even show up, and so we will be hearing those cases last.

785
01:21:43,170 --> 01:21:44,210
Thank you for your patience.

786
01:21:45,190 --> 01:21:48,070
Office of Ted Scardina, City of Oakham Park.

787
01:21:48,770 --> 01:21:52,850
The address of the property is 4,900 Powerline Road.

788
01:21:53,610 --> 01:21:56,890
The owner is 4,900 Powerline LLC.

789
01:21:57,630 --> 01:22:06,750
Violations were 2480B2D Obstreet Parking, section 5.3 permits required.

790
01:22:07,650 --> 01:22:13,070
There's $19,500 not accruing, the original hearing was 416 of 26.

791
01:22:13,850 --> 01:22:21,010
to be complied on 531, 2026. The fine amount was $250 per day plus $175

792
01:22:21,010 --> 01:22:24,490
administration fee. And they've come into compliance.

793
01:22:32,440 --> 01:22:36,740
Name for the record, sir. Peter Papis, General Manager, 4900 power line up.

794
01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:41,900
Okay. You're in compliance. I'm making an educated guess.

795
01:22:41,900 --> 01:22:45,300
You are here to request a reduction of the fine.

796
01:22:45,500 --> 01:22:48,040
Yes. Okay. As I said before,

797
01:22:48,040 --> 01:23:08,460
I will reduce down the amount from $19,500 plus $175 admin fee to $1,950 plus $175 admin fee for a total of $2,125 days, $125, payable within 30 days.

798
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:09,220
Is that acceptable?

799
01:23:09,220 --> 01:23:18,380
I'd like to request 60 days, please, it's a hotel, hotel, business is down, really bad, and it's on top of it, it's our off season.

800
01:23:19,660 --> 01:23:21,080
All right, 60 days.

801
01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:24,220
Do you have any questions?

802
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:25,340
No questions.

803
01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:25,880
Okay.

804
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:36,500
Accordingly, in case SM-26-057, address record 4900 Powerline Road, owner of record 4900 Powerline LLC.

805
01:23:36,500 --> 01:23:43,300
I am going to accept into the record staff report and determine that the matter is properly

806
01:23:43,300 --> 01:23:46,400
before the special matter straight and based upon the evidence testimony presented here

807
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:47,100
this afternoon.

808
01:23:47,440 --> 01:23:51,880
I'm going to find that the property and property owner are in compliance with the special

809
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:57,220
matter straight's previous order of finding the property to be in violation of Section 2480B2

810
01:23:57,220 --> 01:24:03,960
D off street parking in Section 5.3 A permits required, City of Oakland Park, code, however

811
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:08,020
or that compliance was passed the date set forth and said order.

812
01:24:08,440 --> 01:24:22,440
As a result, a fine of $19,500 as a crude, I will reduce that amount down to $1,950 plus $175 admin fee for a total $2,125 payable within 60 days if it's not paid within that time frame.

813
01:24:22,440 --> 01:24:29,840
It's a revert back to the full amount and staff will then record an order of that effect in the public records-broward county, and I'll constitute a lien against the property.

814
01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:31,680
Okay, thank you.

815
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:42,440
Next, aside on number six, under certifications, SM26097, 3472 Northeastern Fifth Avenue

816
01:24:42,440 --> 01:24:43,840
Officer Carlok.

817
01:25:02,510 --> 01:25:13,970
Officer Carl Locke, City of Oldton Park. This case is up for certification, SM-26-097, address record 34-72 north of the East Fifth Avenue. Owners,

818
01:25:14,090 --> 01:25:22,690
rank group, incorporated. The violation of the Section 24-79-1D3, outdoor storage. The amount for

819
01:25:22,690 --> 01:25:30,490
day for the violation was 300. The compliance date was supposed to be 5-4-26. The resolution date was 6-22-06.

820
01:25:31,610 --> 01:25:34,210
We're currently at 14,700 not accruing.

821
01:25:34,650 --> 01:25:40,090
The original hearing date was June 18th, 2026, and it went retroactive to the date the

822
01:25:40,090 --> 01:25:45,910
violation was first noted on March 4th, 2026, less than 155 admin fee.

823
01:25:46,530 --> 01:25:50,730
I have been in touch with the owner's son, the representative he's here to speak with you.

824
01:25:51,110 --> 01:25:55,410
He sent an email with some pictures from last night that he wanted to make sure that you

825
01:25:55,410 --> 01:25:59,270
you saw to show what he's doing in his attempts to clean up the property.

826
01:26:00,350 --> 01:26:04,930
I also went out this morning and took pictures, so they're in there for you to see as well.

827
01:26:06,110 --> 01:26:10,290
The city is seeking the certification of the full fund of $14,700,

828
01:26:10,610 --> 01:26:15,010
basically based on the history of this property and the repetitive nature of this violation.

829
01:26:15,830 --> 01:26:19,690
So I included a 2024 violation for your records.

830
01:26:19,690 --> 01:26:29,370
This was heard in 2025, it then was read into the record and became a violation on record.

831
01:26:29,370 --> 01:26:31,590
And then in 2026, we had to repeat offense.

832
01:26:32,350 --> 01:26:38,870
And I do know that a code enforcement officer is working on another violation because if you look at the pictures,

833
01:26:39,330 --> 01:26:42,210
although it was definitely cleaned up, the dumpster is still there.

834
01:26:42,450 --> 01:26:48,610
There are still wooden crates that are there and there will probably be a new case opened on the property.

835
01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,060
Are we in compliance or not?

836
01:26:55,800 --> 01:27:05,520
It says $14,700 not accruing, but it sounds to me that from your testimony it may not be in compliance?

837
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:13,360
Well, it has fallen out of compliance again, but my case was complied since then it's gone into noncompliance and officer Rick's

838
01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:15,320
will be probably opening a new case on it.

839
01:27:15,700 --> 01:27:24,160
Well, one thing at a time, all I have before me is case SM-26-097, you are in compliance.

840
01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:24,940
Yes.

841
01:27:25,460 --> 01:27:25,720
Okay.

842
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:27,300
All right.

843
01:27:27,780 --> 01:27:34,060
But it may come back before me in a future date, or likely to come back before me.

844
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:34,520
All right.

845
01:27:34,700 --> 01:27:34,820
Yes.

846
01:27:35,900 --> 01:27:37,200
Your name for the records, sir?

847
01:27:37,740 --> 01:27:38,560
Charles Greenberg.

848
01:27:39,220 --> 01:27:40,480
And your relationship to the property?

849
01:27:40,480 --> 01:27:43,700
I'm the property manager, that's my father's the owner.

850
01:27:44,180 --> 01:27:53,900
Okay, you are in compliance, however fine of $14,700 has accrued plus the $175 admin fee.

851
01:27:54,680 --> 01:28:00,620
And according to staff, we may be back but here before me, I hope not.

852
01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:01,800
What do you want to do?

853
01:28:02,620 --> 01:28:04,900
I would please request for a fine reduction.

854
01:28:05,380 --> 01:28:07,880
Okay, I will grant you that request.

855
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:18,060
to reduce the fine down from $14,700 to $1,470 plus the $175 admin fee,

856
01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:27,080
doing payable within 30 days, that is a total of $1,645.

857
01:28:28,720 --> 01:28:31,480
Is that acceptable?

858
01:28:32,300 --> 01:28:36,380
May I please request a 60 day to pay that?

859
01:28:36,380 --> 01:28:37,500
All right.

860
01:28:42,190 --> 01:28:51,200
I've been giving people some leeway here. I frankly can ask staff, I generally

861
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:56,220
don't. It's just 30 days or not. Why 60 days? I'm just kind of, you know, I'm going

862
01:28:56,220 --> 01:29:01,120
to, again, if you come back before, if any of you all come in before me and you're asking

863
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:08,540
for more than 30 days, as we come up in the any one who still remains here, please start

864
01:29:08,540 --> 01:29:10,540
explaining why additional time is needed.

865
01:29:11,340 --> 01:29:16,080
We have had quite a lot of expenses with the owner of that business.

866
01:29:16,780 --> 01:29:22,720
We have had to pay for a chunk removal a couple of weeks ago in the amount of $800.

867
01:29:26,100 --> 01:29:29,380
Are you saying because of that, you're not able to pay within 30 days?

868
01:29:30,340 --> 01:29:31,420
Again, it's-

869
01:29:31,420 --> 01:29:35,670
We are able, but we would do this request 60 days to-

870
01:29:37,950 --> 01:29:48,970
I'll give you 45 days, okay, we're here in case I'm 26097, 3472, Northeast 5th Avenue,

871
01:29:49,210 --> 01:29:55,690
owner of record, rank, group, ink, I'm going to accept into the record staff report and

872
01:29:55,690 --> 01:29:57,930
and find that the matter is properly before the special

873
01:29:57,930 --> 01:29:59,950
mastery and best upon the image.

874
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:29,780
This testimony is presented here this afternoon. I'm going to find the property and property owner are in compliance with the violation, Section 24.791D3 outdoor storage, but that compliance came after the date set forth in the order for compliance as a result of a fine of $14,700 as a crude plus $175 admin fee. I will reduce that amount to $1,470 plus $175 admin fee for a total $1,645 payable within 45 days.

875
01:30:29,780 --> 01:30:32,610
any questions?

876
01:30:33,170 --> 01:30:34,070
No questions.

877
01:30:34,330 --> 01:30:34,610
Thank you.

878
01:30:34,890 --> 01:30:35,470
All right.

879
01:30:35,830 --> 01:30:36,310
Best of luck.

880
01:30:36,550 --> 01:30:36,930
Thank you.

881
01:30:39,260 --> 01:30:40,620
Nexus item number 14.

882
01:30:40,620 --> 01:30:41,560
Under new cases.

883
01:30:41,940 --> 01:30:44,000
SM 26157.

884
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:46,280
1857 Northwest.

885
01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:47,860
29th Street.

886
01:30:48,480 --> 01:30:49,960
Officer Gilbert Vanero.

887
01:31:02,930 --> 01:31:03,650
Code enforcement.

888
01:31:04,190 --> 01:31:04,690
Vanero.

889
01:31:04,970 --> 01:31:09,090
I'll be presenting case number SM 26157.

890
01:31:09,550 --> 01:31:12,790
Property addresses 1857 Northwest 29th Street.

891
01:31:12,790 --> 01:31:17,650
Onor of record according to Brown County of Property Appraisers is Dane Mowatt.

892
01:31:18,390 --> 01:31:24,210
Mainly addresses 6020 Shakewood Circle apartment 202C Tamarack.

893
01:31:24,530 --> 01:31:25,970
This is not a homestead property.

894
01:31:26,450 --> 01:31:29,950
Service was obtained by certified mail posting on the property in City Hall.

895
01:31:30,430 --> 01:31:34,650
This case was opened on May 29th of 2026 by my observation.

896
01:31:34,870 --> 01:31:37,630
The following steps were conducted to obtain compliance.

897
01:31:37,630 --> 01:31:47,370
The notice of violation was issued on 529, the 2026, the property was cited for the following city code ordinance violations.

898
01:31:47,810 --> 01:31:52,970
24.4 B1 use permitted light industry.

899
01:31:53,470 --> 01:31:58,690
Multiple vehicles are being stored at this vacant lot, which is not permitted in use and

900
01:31:58,690 --> 01:32:00,850
does not comply with the city code requirements.

901
01:32:00,850 --> 01:32:07,850
This constitutes an unpermitted use of the property, section 23.1A abandoned vehicles.

902
01:32:08,090 --> 01:32:16,510
Multiple vehicles are being stored in the front of the gate of the property, which is prohibited regardless of whether the vehicles are licensed or operable.

903
01:32:16,930 --> 01:32:20,750
This condition is in violation of the city code requirements.

904
01:32:21,630 --> 01:32:25,970
There was no contact with the property owner or anyone in reference to this property.

905
01:32:25,970 --> 01:32:30,730
The city's requesting 20 days or $150 per day per violation.

906
01:32:31,410 --> 01:32:36,310
Submitting as evidence, notice the violation, photos depicting the property's condition and legal posting.

907
01:32:36,770 --> 01:32:42,710
The BCPA, per now, the notice to appear FIDA service as supporting evidence.

908
01:32:43,390 --> 01:32:46,310
I believe there's someone here to speak for that property.

909
01:32:46,310 --> 01:32:46,390
Okay.

910
01:32:47,630 --> 01:32:48,790
Sorry, your name for the record.

911
01:32:49,230 --> 01:32:49,830
Ufford, Francis.

912
01:32:50,330 --> 01:32:51,770
And your relationship to the property?

913
01:32:52,150 --> 01:32:55,090
I'm the leesie that I, leesie.

914
01:32:55,090 --> 01:32:58,010
You could pull that up, speaking to the mic.

915
01:32:58,550 --> 01:33:00,230
They would lease them parked in over there.

916
01:33:00,910 --> 01:33:01,150
Okay.

917
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:07,660
You're essentially the tenant?

918
01:33:08,140 --> 01:33:08,360
Yes.

919
01:33:08,780 --> 01:33:08,900
Okay.

920
01:33:09,420 --> 01:33:12,680
Do you have any communications with the property owner regarding this issue?

921
01:33:13,480 --> 01:33:13,700
Yes.

922
01:33:13,800 --> 01:33:14,440
You know, okay.

923
01:33:14,440 --> 01:33:23,960
Okay, so because normally the property owner is ultimately the entity responsible for what happens on their property.

924
01:33:24,340 --> 01:33:31,380
So, you know, I don't know what your level of communications are with the property owner.

925
01:33:31,620 --> 01:33:37,480
I don't know why the property owner chose not to come here, maybe he might be able to.

926
01:33:41,440 --> 01:34:06,060
Well, whether it's you or him, you know, the alleged violation as demonstrated by the photos is that, you know, you're using the lot as a vehicle storage lot, and that's not allowed, period, okay, it just, it's the city code does not allow it there, so the cars are going to have to be removed.

927
01:34:06,060 --> 01:34:17,780
It cannot be used for that purpose unless you go through a very lengthy process of having the city, which they may or may not grant you a request to rezone the property.

928
01:34:19,260 --> 01:34:20,800
It's not allowed.

929
01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:33,400
That's as simple as I can say it, for your benefit and for the benefit of your landlord, that use is not permitted in the city, in that location.

930
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:43,900
Yeah, but for the containers that he have on their been there by like 25 years that's been then you know what he needs to

931
01:34:43,900 --> 01:34:47,800
He needs to take the initiative

932
01:34:48,860 --> 01:34:56,020
I'm assuming you're not you've not been the tenant there for 25 years 23 years. I'm sorry for 23 years

933
01:34:56,020 --> 01:34:59,620
You have been that yes, okay, so either

934
01:35:01,440 --> 01:35:30,080
The property may or may not qualify for what's called a legal nonconforming use, or it doesn't. I can't make that decision, it's not a decision for me to make. And you would have to meet with city staff to find out whether or not you meet the criteria under the city code to continue to have this here. And just so you understand, you will have to demonstrate through verifiable evidence that this

935
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:32,620
has been there for those 23 years.

936
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,820
Going back to whenever the zoning code may have changed.

937
01:35:37,340 --> 01:35:40,820
Because if the zoning code that applies this property

938
01:35:40,820 --> 01:35:44,780
is older than 23 years or 25 years, it doesn't matter.

939
01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:45,800
It's not allowed there.

940
01:35:46,380 --> 01:35:50,420
And I don't know that, but you'll have to find that out.

941
01:35:54,780 --> 01:35:58,380
Based upon what he's told me, I'm going to give him

942
01:35:58,380 --> 01:36:04,640
the benefit of the doubt to meet with staff and continue the case for 30 days for determination

943
01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:12,540
whether or not they qualify for a non-conforming use provision on the code, but if not you're

944
01:36:12,540 --> 01:36:17,600
going to be back here on September 17th if you don't remove the vehicles.

945
01:36:17,880 --> 01:36:24,240
You have to one, find out from the city if you meet the criteria and you're eligible to keep

946
01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:31,020
them there. If you're not, you've got to get them removed. Because that's again, I don't make

947
01:36:31,020 --> 01:36:37,040
that decision. I just hear the evidence and make a determination. I get just like you do, I

948
01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:45,900
receive the code as it's presented to me by the City Council who have adopted those rules and I

949
01:36:45,900 --> 01:36:50,960
just make a determination whether or not you as a property owner or a tenant are in compliance with

950
01:36:50,960 --> 01:36:53,360
those rules and regulations are not. That's my job.

951
01:36:55,780 --> 01:36:58,340
If I can add to that, as well, here on here.

952
01:36:59,300 --> 01:37:02,620
That includes the, that doesn't include the vehicles in the right of way.

953
01:37:03,100 --> 01:37:06,620
There's a barbecue truck, and there's cars in the right of way,

954
01:37:06,820 --> 01:37:10,180
which you and I have spoken before, those have to be moved immediately.

955
01:37:10,880 --> 01:37:12,360
Those do not conform to that.

956
01:37:12,740 --> 01:37:15,840
Those are cars that are parked illegally that we could tow right now.

957
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:20,000
Those in the right of way, which you know where the right of way is, have to be moved immediately.

958
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:31,980
Okay, so in the event that we have to move those the storage containers that are over there. We're getting more than 30 days. We have to explain that to

959
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:45,140
you.

960
01:37:48,420 --> 01:37:53,980
Does this municode keep the catch lines for when the

961
01:37:53,980 --> 01:37:57,080
abregs are adopted? All right, so let's give me a moment.

962
01:38:27,970 --> 01:38:32,210
We know what, what the zoning designation is for this property?

963
01:38:33,810 --> 01:38:34,770
It's light industrial.

964
01:38:36,790 --> 01:38:39,810
Okay, but this is an empty lot and that's what it's registered on.

965
01:38:39,810 --> 01:38:45,830
No, no, just one thing at a time, let's get to light

966
01:38:47,910 --> 01:38:51,290
industrial, commercial light industrial districts.

967
01:39:24,780 --> 01:39:38,080
Okay, so the initial zoning designation for this property was adopted by the city of Oakland Park on 10, 17, 1990.

968
01:39:38,080 --> 01:39:44,380
So since 1990, the zoning on this property prohibits this use.

969
01:39:44,560 --> 01:39:59,560
I need to ask the staff verify that the initial regulation adopted in 1990 includes that prohibition.

970
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:11,220
It's ordinance 090-21, adopted on 1017-90. It was zoning regulations were updated in 2006

971
01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:24,840
through ordinance 02006-008, which was adopted on 035, which was adopted on 5306-1119-08.

972
01:40:26,340 --> 01:40:33,200
So, you know, if the initial regulations adopted in 1990 say that this is a prohibited use,

973
01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:40,920
you know, if you weren't there before 1990 and staff showed me a photograph from

974
01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:47,380
dated and aerial photographs from 1994, showing that this lot was totally empty at that time.

975
01:40:47,380 --> 01:40:57,080
I'm sorry, 1998, so that's going back 25 years, so as you testify.

976
01:40:57,700 --> 01:41:09,800
So you would have to be able to show, again, if this is prohibited use in the zoning district and it was adopted in 1990,

977
01:41:13,500 --> 01:41:23,500
And as the sheriff's representative stated, whatever is in encroaching or going into

978
01:41:23,500 --> 01:41:29,400
the right of way, they have the right to remove on their own because it's obstructing

979
01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:33,620
the road for pedestrians and vehicle traffic.

980
01:41:33,820 --> 01:41:36,040
So that has to be removed as well.

981
01:41:36,180 --> 01:41:37,040
That's not before me.

982
01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:38,980
They can do that unilaterally.

983
01:41:38,980 --> 01:41:45,040
They're just telling you as a courtesy, hey, move them, or they're going to start towing them themselves.

984
01:41:45,480 --> 01:41:49,060
And that's their right, it doesn't have to come before me for determination.

985
01:41:49,740 --> 01:42:02,160
They just need to verify that it's over the property line and encroaching it onto city property before they can take the action to remove whatever's encroaching into the road right away.

986
01:42:02,160 --> 01:42:31,660
So, again, I'll continue the matter for 30 days to allow you to investigate and make that determination and allow staff to look into it, but I can tell you in advance that if we come back in 30 days and the information is that it appears to be, that this is all the way back to 1990 that these regulations exist, I will, I won't have any other

987
01:42:32,840 --> 01:42:37,400
alternative based upon the evidence, but to find the property and to be in violation of the code.

988
01:42:37,580 --> 01:42:43,680
But in the event that it has to be moved up, it's going to take less than more than 30 days.

989
01:42:43,700 --> 01:42:51,800
Well, we can talk about that, or you can come to some agreement with the city, once you determine, or

990
01:42:51,800 --> 01:42:57,420
it's determined whether or not this can even be there to begin with, as far as, you know, yes,

991
01:42:57,420 --> 01:43:03,940
I, the law requires me to give you a reasonable period of time to come into compliance.

992
01:43:04,620 --> 01:43:14,680
And we can talk about that when we come back if, or alternatively said you can work that out with staff directly and potentially not have to come back before me.

993
01:43:14,800 --> 01:43:19,880
But to make it very simple, either you're in violation of the regulations or you're not.

994
01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:31,680
And you have to find out from staff as to when these regulations as they specifically apply does appear to go back to 1990.

995
01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:41,760
If that in 1990 the city said this isn't allowed, then looking here at the master business list, give me a moment,

996
01:43:45,220 --> 01:43:47,340
what would this

997
01:43:50,190 --> 01:43:53,710
be considered in the code storage?

998
01:44:00,860 --> 01:44:07,180
Part of the issue also serves vehicle storage as an accessory use and there's no primary use for building on that lot.

999
01:44:13,140 --> 01:44:16,880
This city would also like to enter into record the aerial shot of BCPA from 1990.

1000
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:27,900
Yeah, when we come back, if need be, yes, you would show that it introduced into the record the prior, the historical photographs.

1001
01:44:28,220 --> 01:44:31,040
Let me see just generally storage boats.

1002
01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:34,820
Let's see yeah let's see

1003
01:46:03,340 --> 01:46:03,800
Fair with me.

1004
01:46:05,840 --> 01:46:06,480
Yeah.

1005
01:46:08,540 --> 01:46:13,060
Outdoor storage in the I-1, the box is empty in

1006
01:46:15,590 --> 01:46:16,050
the I-1.

1007
01:47:02,410 --> 01:47:10,610
It appears that there's a designation of H-25 in the I, and I don't know what that,

1008
01:47:14,780 --> 01:47:16,240
yeah, going down. So

1009
01:47:20,780 --> 01:47:27,140
yeah, I'm going up here now.

1010
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:42,960
Okay. Yeah. Okay.

1011
01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:48,320
So

1012
01:48:07,070 --> 01:48:08,870
this is just a vacant lot.

1013
01:48:17,860 --> 01:48:27,400
So as best I can determine, and looking through the code, this use, this location is only

1014
01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:27,960
permitted

1015
01:48:30,620 --> 01:48:32,760
as

1016
01:48:36,630 --> 01:48:43,430
what is called an accessory use, and that means there has to be another primary

1017
01:48:43,430 --> 01:48:44,310
use there.

1018
01:48:47,740 --> 01:48:54,620
Let's say for example a car repair shop and outdoor storage is allowed there.

1019
01:48:55,380 --> 01:49:05,740
So you would have to have that use and there is a specific limitation on that which is

1020
01:49:11,020 --> 01:49:11,580
25?

1021
01:49:16,560 --> 01:49:26,080
Yeah, the excess reuse to a primary use. So you, as it currently exists, it looks

1022
01:49:26,080 --> 01:49:31,220
to me, this isn't allowed. But I'm going to give you 30 days to work through that issue

1023
01:49:31,220 --> 01:49:39,140
with city staff. I suggest that before you leave here today, three o'clock staff should

1024
01:49:39,140 --> 01:49:45,560
be here that you go to the Planning and Zoning Department and schedule a meeting with them as

1025
01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:53,120
soon as possible to have this discussion and find out whether or not this can be allowed in this

1026
01:49:53,120 --> 01:49:59,900
particular location. If it can't, then again, I would strongly suggest that you work with

1027
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:29,980
The staff to agree to a time frame, to remove all the vehicles. Otherwise, you're going to be back before me. And we're going to have this discussion all over again with me ultimately making a decision and not only making that decision, but as part of the process for the course of effect, imposing a fine if you don't come into compliance. So, as I said, I would strongly recommend that you immediately meet with staff as soon as possible.

1028
01:50:30,780 --> 01:50:36,500
Make the appointment here before you leave, obviously take care of the issue that the

1029
01:50:37,040 --> 01:50:42,200
deputies, the sheriff's office, identified of the cars encroaching into the right of way.

1030
01:50:42,340 --> 01:50:49,240
They need to be removed, and if staff ends up advising you that you can't do this here,

1031
01:50:49,720 --> 01:50:55,280
work with them to come up with a deadline that is agreeable to both parties for the removal.

1032
01:50:55,940 --> 01:50:57,560
And you won't come back before me.

1033
01:50:57,560 --> 01:51:11,500
Okay, so in case SM26157, address the record 1857 Northwest 29th Street, owner of record Dane Moa, the matter will be continued for 30 days.

1034
01:51:24,950 --> 01:51:37,930
Nexus item number 12, funder certifications, SM26065, 2731 Northwest, 26 Avenue, officer Wilson, I'm sorry, Gilder Van Erow.

1035
01:51:57,190 --> 01:52:10,170
Inspecative the narrow, presenting case SM-26-065, property address of 27-31, Northwest-26 Avenue, property owner is Andrew and Joanna Jones.

1036
01:52:10,770 --> 01:52:14,110
This is an amount that's been accruing for $9,900.

1037
01:52:14,750 --> 01:52:22,390
The original hearing date was April 16th of 2026 with a compliance date of June 15th of 2026.

1038
01:52:23,150 --> 01:52:26,330
the final amount was 150 per day, plus the admin fee.

1039
01:52:27,070 --> 01:52:32,990
As of this date, they still haven't gotten the permits in order.

1040
01:52:33,290 --> 01:52:37,850
But the property owners are here to represent and speak on the behalf of the issue.

1041
01:52:59,520 --> 01:53:00,780
Your name for the record, please.

1042
01:53:01,140 --> 01:53:01,820
Andrew Jones.

1043
01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:05,120
Mr. Jones, obviously I assume you are the property owner.

1044
01:53:05,420 --> 01:53:06,380
Tell me what's going on.

1045
01:53:06,980 --> 01:53:10,700
We've been working on this for a while at this present time.

1046
01:53:10,700 --> 01:53:13,900
And we do have some of the permits, the windows and doors.

1047
01:53:14,300 --> 01:53:20,140
We was advised that the same contractor that would be doing the windows and doors is going to be taking on the whole project.

1048
01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:24,100
He's just waiting for the, they're working on the master permit.

1049
01:53:24,920 --> 01:53:30,820
So there are some, some additional information to be talked about between the engineers.

1050
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:34,220
And so GC, so that's where we are now.

1051
01:53:34,260 --> 01:53:39,180
So like every time we talk to them, they always say they're working on it and it's going to be done today.

1052
01:53:39,180 --> 01:53:42,200
I love a, you know, just keep the crew in time.

1053
01:53:42,520 --> 01:53:45,280
So at this point, we talked to them again.

1054
01:53:45,280 --> 01:53:46,820
Mr. Jones should be in the record.

1055
01:53:47,120 --> 01:53:49,020
You know, basically what we said,

1056
01:53:49,100 --> 01:53:50,940
we need a general contract to show on record

1057
01:53:51,500 --> 01:53:53,220
after I talk to the code and what's not.

1058
01:53:53,700 --> 01:53:56,540
So they have the documents to say that they are,

1059
01:53:56,660 --> 01:53:57,780
but it's not on record.

1060
01:54:23,660 --> 01:54:28,220
Officer, permitting where they're saying that they've submitted,

1061
01:54:28,360 --> 01:54:29,500
they've gotten some of the permits,

1062
01:54:29,500 --> 01:54:33,200
But they have obviously some of the trades that can you enlighten?

1063
01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:29,900
When they came, the issue was that the contractor never pulled the permit and obviously was given in the run-around. That's the reason why he looked for a brand new contractor to continue with this. And this is what's you saying. As far as the windows and the other things, that wasn't the issue about the permits at least for us. It was the actual, if you look at the pictures, the addition in the back of the house that they extended the house. So that's where they're working out of this.

1064
01:55:29,900 --> 01:55:30,120
point.

1065
01:55:35,190 --> 01:55:52,510
So where are we at with that? I mean, the point is well taken that while you're going through the permitting some other issues appear to have been identified that needed correction as well. And that I commend you for taking care of that.

1066
01:55:52,510 --> 01:56:01,420
But the issue or concern that I have is, I've said to some other people who've come

1067
01:56:01,420 --> 01:56:08,780
before you, is, you know, we're in the stage of the process where staff is asking me to

1068
01:56:08,780 --> 01:56:13,060
make a determination whether you're in compliance or not because the length of time that's gone

1069
01:56:13,060 --> 01:56:20,820
by and, you know, kind of the window for getting back before me and asking, hey, we need more

1070
01:56:20,820 --> 01:56:31,500
time is, you know, should have happened prior to this time and so really I have realistically

1071
01:56:31,500 --> 01:56:36,540
two options available to me and to you which is do what I've done with some of the other

1072
01:56:36,540 --> 01:56:42,900
property owners which is give you an additional time and basically say, you know, we'll be

1073
01:56:42,900 --> 01:56:48,360
back here in 30 days if you haven't resolved this and in the meantime this fine continues

1074
01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:58,620
to a crew. And so that is your incentive, obviously, to try and take care of the problem as

1075
01:56:58,620 --> 01:57:07,980
soon as possible. I have a lot of people who unfortunately come before me who kind of the same

1076
01:57:07,980 --> 01:57:14,020
situation where our contractor said they were going to take care of it, or they told me I didn't

1077
01:57:14,020 --> 01:57:22,820
department, you know, unfortunately, you know, you're caught up in that, and here you are.

1078
01:57:23,200 --> 01:57:34,620
So your current contractor, have they indicated how long it will take to get this completed?

1079
01:57:35,340 --> 01:57:43,420
Yes, but we came into a contract with green innovations, and since June 23rd, they got

1080
01:57:43,420 --> 01:57:48,560
the first piece done. We talked to them on a regular basis and they keep saying the same thing.

1081
01:57:48,680 --> 01:57:54,560
My wife may have some comments. No, I mean based on Johan Jones's work, spoke with them

1082
01:57:55,100 --> 01:57:59,280
probably 30 minutes before coming in and they are indicating that they're working on the corrections

1083
01:57:59,280 --> 01:58:08,640
and getting ready to hold on quotes, submit the subs. And so what do you find there? Yeah. I mean he

1084
01:58:08,640 --> 01:58:17,140
He gave us the information we signed again for the engineer to take over the project.

1085
01:58:17,360 --> 01:58:18,900
They're doing the whole entire project.

1086
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:23,720
And so he's saying, rather than the engineering, that they're just resolving, answering

1087
01:58:23,720 --> 01:58:28,000
some more questions, and everything should be on the master permit, it should be good.

1088
01:58:28,300 --> 01:58:28,880
That's what we got.

1089
01:58:32,100 --> 01:58:34,260
Were you all here for the original hearing?

1090
01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:35,340
Okay.

1091
01:58:35,340 --> 01:58:45,680
So, if I didn't say this then, I apologize if I'm repeating myself, you're getting

1092
01:58:45,680 --> 01:58:47,780
a permit after the fact, obviously.

1093
01:58:49,630 --> 01:58:57,720
And what you really need and you're working toward is getting an engineer who will certify

1094
01:58:57,720 --> 01:59:06,940
issue in some medicine saying, hey, this complies with the code and you are from what I can tell,

1095
01:59:07,080 --> 01:59:09,640
you're doing all the things that you need to do.

1096
01:59:14,640 --> 01:59:21,760
Unfortunately, and I say this being in your

1097
01:59:21,760 --> 01:59:28,460
shoes on behalf of other people that I've represented on the other sides. You know, I can't tell you

1098
01:59:28,460 --> 01:59:35,840
Unfortunately, the issues that you're experiencing with your engineer are not uncommon.

1099
01:59:37,900 --> 01:59:41,120
On behalf of clients, like, what are you going to submit the plans?

1100
01:59:41,740 --> 01:59:42,800
What are you going to have this completed?

1101
01:59:44,000 --> 01:59:48,840
And in the meantime, the clock is ticking on the accrual of the fines.

1102
01:59:50,280 --> 01:59:54,680
Like I said, there's two things that I can do at this point.

1103
01:59:54,680 --> 01:59:59,960
I can give you additional time. The fines will accrue or I can

1104
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:29,980
And certify the amount and allow you an attempt to try and resolve it. If I certify it, then you don't have to come back before me. Not only will you continue to resolve the permitting issue with staff, but you also would resolve the accrued fine directly with staff. And you wouldn't have to come back before me. Or we continue it. And you come back before me.

1105
02:00:29,980 --> 02:00:40,600
for me in 30 days for an update, but the end of the process of this sort of, what's called the certification process,

1106
02:00:40,940 --> 02:00:47,440
you don't get resolved within that 30 days, they will record an order and technically become a lean against your property.

1107
02:00:48,420 --> 02:00:54,120
While that sounds severe, you can still, and ultimately when you get it resolved,

1108
02:00:54,840 --> 02:01:00,740
the law says then they will remove that lean from your property,

1109
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:04,160
subject to working out the resolution of the final amount.

1110
02:01:04,820 --> 02:01:06,460
And again, you don't have to come back before me.

1111
02:01:06,600 --> 02:01:08,760
So, you have a preference?

1112
02:01:10,520 --> 02:01:11,240
Sort of.

1113
02:01:11,380 --> 02:01:13,420
Okay. That's fine.

1114
02:01:16,520 --> 02:01:25,620
So in case I'm 26-065, address of record, 27-31, Northwest 26th Avenue, the owner of record

1115
02:01:26,180 --> 02:01:28,980
are Joanna and Andrew Jones.

1116
02:01:30,560 --> 02:01:35,120
Based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, which I will accept into the record

1117
02:01:35,120 --> 02:01:39,940
the updated staff report and find that the matters properly before the special magistrate.

1118
02:01:39,940 --> 02:01:47,180
I am going to make a finding that the property and property owner are still in violation with the original order

1119
02:01:47,740 --> 02:01:53,300
issued by the special magistrate finding the property to be in violation of section 5.3 a permits required

1120
02:01:53,300 --> 02:01:56,240
City code of Oakland Park that they find of

1121
02:01:56,240 --> 02:02:06,580
$9,900 as a crude and continues a crew in the daily amount of $150 per day and there's also doing payable the $175 ad mean fee

1122
02:02:06,580 --> 02:02:08,520
I will certify that amount

1123
02:02:09,940 --> 02:02:18,540
And request staff not record the order for 30 days to see if the property owners can resolve the matter within that time frame.

1124
02:02:18,680 --> 02:02:27,000
And then also resolve the accumulated fine directly with staff, best of luck, okay?

1125
02:02:27,700 --> 02:02:36,120
And again, just continue to stay in contact with both code enforcement staff and the building department, okay?

1126
02:02:36,760 --> 02:02:37,380
Best of luck.

1127
02:02:39,330 --> 02:02:50,750
Next is item number two under certifications, SB 25227, 160 North East, 55th Street, Officer Wilson-Kintero.

1128
02:02:54,940 --> 02:02:55,960
Throw me with this question.

1129
02:02:55,960 --> 02:03:04,120
To continue on behalf of the city, case number SB 25227 for the property located at 160 East, 55th Street.

1130
02:03:04,120 --> 02:03:15,960
Code case, 2025, 06, 13361, the property was cited for Section 5.3A, Permiss Require,

1131
02:03:18,700 --> 02:03:21,420
38,750 dollars

1132
02:03:21,420 --> 02:03:30,180
accrued, the original heating was 2018-2025 to be complied by 318-2025, the fine amount

1133
02:03:30,180 --> 02:03:41,340
is 250. The property was cited for permits for inter, for the calpere enclosure, the fence, windows, doors, and rear-parts.

1134
02:03:42,240 --> 02:03:47,000
The only pervy on records is for the calpere enclosure and it's still in reviews.

1135
02:03:50,880 --> 02:03:52,080
Name for the record, sir.

1136
02:03:52,800 --> 02:03:53,780
Edgar, Edgar Ramas.

1137
02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:56,120
Okay, Miss Ramas is the property owner.

1138
02:03:56,620 --> 02:03:56,900
Yes.

1139
02:03:59,120 --> 02:04:15,100
We've got a fine of, number two, $38,750 and continues to crew in the daily amount of $250 a day.

1140
02:04:16,060 --> 02:04:17,260
What's going on?

1141
02:04:17,260 --> 02:04:29,020
So after the first million I have with you three months ago, I hire a contract and we start

1142
02:04:29,020 --> 02:04:29,820
with the planting.

1143
02:04:30,360 --> 02:04:40,180
We were doing, I guess, the right way, but I start paying at the end, I pay like $6,000

1144
02:04:40,710 --> 02:04:47,120
for the plant and for him to start, but he always, everything I was calling, I was

1145
02:04:47,120 --> 02:04:53,040
telling me that we need to wait or he was under control and at the end.

1146
02:05:00,850 --> 02:05:01,790
Is it happening?

1147
02:05:07,930 --> 02:05:33,550
Much like the prior, the ones that just came before you, where are you at with this contract? Are you still using him or is he? Well, right now, you can always ask me for everything I asked, they were here and he will want like more money. And I see the letter that you guys send me or like, what? I never think, you know, like, all that. I'll say anything in the record that's been submitted at all.

1148
02:05:33,550 --> 02:05:37,990
But, nothing at all, just put it out, put it in closer, and it's still in review since.

1149
02:05:38,570 --> 02:05:39,650
I have the plans with me.

1150
02:05:40,510 --> 02:05:43,490
Well, the problem is, and I appreciate that.

1151
02:05:43,650 --> 02:05:44,990
You can provide the officer.

1152
02:05:45,850 --> 02:05:52,130
But, you know, the plans, the science-yield plans need to be submitted to the city

1153
02:05:52,130 --> 02:05:58,890
by a licensed contractor or an engineer, or architect, as the case may be,

1154
02:05:58,890 --> 02:06:01,870
Um, you know, for it to be part into the system.

1155
02:06:02,070 --> 02:06:08,290
So, you know, I, I have, you can, you can, you can first give it to the inspector

1156
02:06:08,290 --> 02:06:09,710
and then I'll put it in the file.

1157
02:06:09,710 --> 02:06:16,110
But there's nothing I can do about it or with it because that's not within my, my authority.

1158
02:06:16,750 --> 02:06:22,150
Um, again, much like what I said to the people who just were before you, you have really

1159
02:06:22,150 --> 02:06:31,790
at this point two options. I will certify the amount and ask staff to hold off and

1160
02:06:31,790 --> 02:06:39,290
recording the order for 30 days to allow you that time frame to try and get the contractor

1161
02:06:39,290 --> 02:06:46,890
of the engineer to actually file the paperwork with the city and get the permit so you

1162
02:06:46,890 --> 02:06:56,990
you comply the violation, or I can continue it, and the fines continue to accrue in either

1163
02:06:56,990 --> 02:07:06,170
event. But ultimately, someone has to submit the appropriate plans to the building department

1164
02:07:06,170 --> 02:07:13,230
so they can be reviewed, approved, and a permit issued. That's the compliance for you is

1165
02:07:13,230 --> 02:07:23,870
obtaining a building permit and I certainly understand and as I said I've heard the similar

1166
02:07:25,430 --> 02:07:34,010
explanations from other property owners and all I can tell you is you have to keep plugging

1167
02:07:34,010 --> 02:07:40,170
away but at this point two options available which would you prefer?

1168
02:07:40,170 --> 02:07:48,930
I don't know what's going to happen in the future if I still paying him or continue with the process.

1169
02:07:49,410 --> 02:07:51,090
I would like to see if you can't help me with that.

1170
02:07:51,530 --> 02:07:57,570
You do have the option, unfortunately, there's going to be a loss of what you've paid already

1171
02:07:57,570 --> 02:08:01,230
is to find another contractor who's more responsive.

1172
02:08:02,230 --> 02:08:07,950
I don't know what to tell you, because, again, as I said to the people, I've been in

1173
02:08:07,950 --> 02:08:15,170
situation, on behalf of my clients where I have to, you know, call up the architecture,

1174
02:08:15,170 --> 02:08:19,330
the engineer or the contractor almost on a daily basis saying, hey, what's going on?

1175
02:08:20,390 --> 02:08:26,390
You know, unfortunately, that's what you're going to have to continue to do, or find another

1176
02:08:26,390 --> 02:08:27,030
contractor.

1177
02:08:28,370 --> 02:08:34,430
At this point, I'm going to pay the fee, I'm saying if you can help me to level up.

1178
02:08:34,430 --> 02:08:43,090
Well, then what I'll do is I'll certify the amount, as I said, just with the previous owner to give you 30 days before that order is recorded.

1179
02:08:43,710 --> 02:08:49,390
Okay, you get the problem resolved, and then you can work with staff to get that fine reduced.

1180
02:08:50,130 --> 02:08:56,990
The only thing is, I don't want to promise something like, I don't know how long it's going to take.

1181
02:08:57,150 --> 02:08:59,730
I don't want this to continue at the end.

1182
02:08:59,730 --> 02:09:04,490
Well, that's the problem is it's going to continue one way or the other, okay?

1183
02:09:04,750 --> 02:09:16,910
The way that the code works, the city code, and state law that allows the city to do this is the stick,

1184
02:09:20,830 --> 02:09:31,850
carrot, and the stick analogy, the stick that the city has under the law is to impose these fines to motivate you, and I know you're motivated, okay?

1185
02:09:31,850 --> 02:09:39,870
and I just to get it done, taken care of, as I said to his other people, you know, if

1186
02:09:39,870 --> 02:09:46,790
you had asked for additional time, earlier in the process, we may not have been at this

1187
02:09:46,790 --> 02:09:56,070
stage as of yet, but, you know, we're here. And so, you know, again, I have really two options

1188
02:09:56,070 --> 02:09:59,970
to make available to you and both of them in

1189
02:10:00,000 --> 02:10:04,600
That's not involved, unfortunately, the accrual of the fine.

1190
02:10:06,840 --> 02:10:29,980
That's not meant to be negative, but once you get that resolved, and get the permit issued, then you can ask the staff for, you know, how do I get this fine reduced, right? Or in 30 days you come back before me. But, you know, the solution to your problem at the end of the day.

1191
02:10:29,980 --> 02:10:37,140
Today is getting that permit application submitted to the city, getting it approved, and the city issuing the permit.

1192
02:10:37,520 --> 02:10:43,580
Until that happens, the fines are going to continue to accrue whether I certify them, or I continue the case.

1193
02:10:44,420 --> 02:10:49,640
A magistrate, the city would recommend a 60 day continuance and come back before certification for this.

1194
02:10:50,880 --> 02:10:56,460
Okay, so 60 days, and then we'll look at what's going on.

1195
02:10:56,460 --> 02:11:06,480
Again, now, I would encourage you very strongly for your benefit to be behind your contractor

1196
02:11:07,060 --> 02:11:13,900
every day, because once the permit application is submitted and ultimately the permit issued,

1197
02:11:14,440 --> 02:11:16,280
that will stop the running of the fine.

1198
02:11:16,780 --> 02:11:23,200
So in that 60-day window, that the continuance that I'm going to give you, the closer to

1199
02:11:23,200 --> 02:11:29,160
day one, which is tomorrow, as opposed to 60 days at the end of the 60 days.

1200
02:11:29,480 --> 02:11:33,820
The sooner you get your contractor to submit the plans and get the permit,

1201
02:11:34,540 --> 02:11:36,920
the sooner the fines will stop accruing.

1202
02:11:36,960 --> 02:11:41,160
And then we will deal with that in 60 days when we come back, okay?

1203
02:11:41,160 --> 02:11:41,220
All right.

1204
02:11:42,480 --> 02:11:42,840
All right.

1205
02:11:43,700 --> 02:11:53,560
In case, SP-25227 address a record, 1-6-0, North East, 55th Street, owner of record,

1206
02:11:53,820 --> 02:12:00,340
Edgar Reynolds will continue the matter for 60 days to allow the property owner to hopefully

1207
02:12:00,340 --> 02:12:07,220
get everything resolved and will then consider fine reduction at that point in 60 days.

1208
02:12:07,820 --> 02:12:08,640
Best of luck.

1209
02:12:09,740 --> 02:12:20,400
Next item, number 15, under certifications, Assam 26158, 1851, Northwest, 29th Street, Officer

1210
02:12:20,400 --> 02:12:21,400
Gildord Benero.

1211
02:13:06,810 --> 02:13:08,630
15 under new cases.

1212
02:13:11,520 --> 02:13:14,160
All right, 15 new cases, all right.

1213
02:13:15,500 --> 02:13:17,880
Jumped again, but we'll get you down anyway.

1214
02:13:18,280 --> 02:13:24,760
Okay, Inspector Benero, presenting case, Assam 26092, Prodigy Address of 16, hold on.

1215
02:13:33,980 --> 02:13:35,140
That's for new cases.

1216
02:13:36,360 --> 02:13:38,660
All right, let's just do that one.

1217
02:13:39,140 --> 02:13:40,960
I don't know if he's going to repress upon.

1218
02:13:50,900 --> 02:13:54,260
Is 26158, 1851, Northwest 29th Street.

1219
02:13:54,860 --> 02:13:55,300
All right.

1220
02:13:58,240 --> 02:14:00,720
Okay, that's not the right case, that was for certification.

1221
02:14:00,980 --> 02:14:02,660
This is for new cases, I have it.

1222
02:14:03,600 --> 02:14:04,240
All right.

1223
02:14:04,680 --> 02:14:08,280
Okay, so you've got to get that one back.

1224
02:14:08,280 --> 02:14:09,140
I

1225
02:14:17,620 --> 02:14:21,040
feel like I'm at home, I'm just doing what my wife tells me to do.

1226
02:14:23,320 --> 02:14:24,140
So the clerk.

1227
02:14:24,480 --> 02:14:25,260
Which one do we hear for?

1228
02:14:25,600 --> 02:14:25,860
Okay,

1229
02:14:28,880 --> 02:14:33,080
26158, item 15 on the agenda, new cases.

1230
02:14:33,360 --> 02:14:34,440
158, okay.

1231
02:14:35,440 --> 02:14:42,160
Code enforcement in respect of the vinegar on behalf of the city, I'm presenting case SM 26158, property

1232
02:14:42,160 --> 02:14:47,340
address of 1851, Northwest 29th Street, owner of record according to Brawer County

1233
02:14:47,340 --> 02:14:54,320
property appraiser is Damien and Kelly Carroll, mailing address of 2701 North West 154th Lane,

1234
02:14:54,580 --> 02:14:58,960
Davie Florida. This is not a home set property service was obtained by Certified Mail.

1235
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:29,980
Posting of the property and city hall, this case was opened on 529 of 2026. By my observation, the following steps were conducted to obtain compliance. The notice of violation was issued and posted on 529 of 2026. The property was cited for the following city code ordinance of violations. Section 24B1E. Use permitted light industrial, multiple vehicles are being stored at a vacant lot which is not permitted use and does not comply with the city code.

1236
02:15:29,980 --> 02:15:30,660
code requirements.

1237
02:15:30,820 --> 02:15:37,360
This constitutes an unpermitted use of the property section 231A abandoned vehicles.

1238
02:15:37,560 --> 02:15:42,260
Multiple vehicles are being stored in the front of the gate of the property itself, which

1239
02:15:42,260 --> 02:15:45,700
is prohibited regardless of whether the vehicles are licensed or operable.

1240
02:15:46,280 --> 02:15:47,780
This condition is in violation.

1241
02:15:48,080 --> 02:15:51,920
This condition is in violation of the city code requirements.

1242
02:15:52,580 --> 02:15:56,440
This property, there was contact with the property owner.

1243
02:15:56,440 --> 02:15:59,580
In fact, in two separate occasions, I spoke to Mr. Carroll.

1244
02:16:01,300 --> 02:16:05,680
This is the neighboring lot of the previous case, and it's identical.

1245
02:16:06,200 --> 02:16:07,020
There's no difference.

1246
02:16:07,780 --> 02:16:13,920
The difference is that Mr. Carroll is putting an apartment to go ahead and zone this floor.

1247
02:16:14,100 --> 02:16:19,300
I believe a commercial structure to store heavy equipment, right?

1248
02:16:19,740 --> 02:16:24,060
But it doesn't solve the issue of the vehicles being there because they're not permitted.

1249
02:16:24,060 --> 02:16:31,160
So, therefore, the city's requesting 20 days that comply are $150 per day per violation.

1250
02:16:31,620 --> 02:16:37,800
I'm submitting as evidence the case filing, including the notice of violations photos depicting of the property,

1251
02:16:37,980 --> 02:16:44,420
condition of legal posting, BCPA burnout, notice to appear, affidavit of service, as supporting events.

1252
02:16:44,980 --> 02:16:46,140
And Mr. Carol is here.

1253
02:16:48,870 --> 02:16:50,010
Mr. Carol, I presume.

1254
02:16:50,390 --> 02:16:50,950
Yes, sir.

1255
02:16:51,410 --> 02:16:51,650
Okay.

1256
02:16:52,810 --> 02:16:55,770
I'd like to speak on my own behalf for a minute, though.

1257
02:16:55,770 --> 02:16:58,730
It is absolutely your right.

1258
02:16:58,750 --> 02:17:03,470
My property is nothing like the property next door that you just dealt with.

1259
02:17:03,790 --> 02:17:09,510
I've been working with the Sheriff's Office and signed up with towing companies and

1260
02:17:09,510 --> 02:17:16,470
gone out there on numerous occasions and had these people towed off of my right away.

1261
02:17:16,730 --> 02:17:23,390
I've spoken with the deputy that's present and told them that these people next door have

1262
02:17:23,390 --> 02:17:24,830
nothing to do with me.

1263
02:17:24,830 --> 02:17:30,090
So, that truth be told, we're two totally different entities.

1264
02:17:30,990 --> 02:17:35,430
No, for sure, we're dealing with them separately.

1265
02:17:35,670 --> 02:17:42,510
I do have, would make just one observation to staff as well as the property under eye.

1266
02:17:43,450 --> 02:17:54,360
The other case, that's the one on the agenda just prior to this, it appears, this is often

1267
02:17:54,360 --> 02:18:04,460
memory because it's not too old that some of the photographs of the other case are also in this case five.

1268
02:18:05,140 --> 02:18:12,340
It seems like it's similar because the properties are identical and they both have more vehicles in it.

1269
02:18:13,260 --> 02:18:17,100
His property is basically on the right hand side, which is 1851.

1270
02:18:18,540 --> 02:18:20,380
Well, it's on the right hand side.

1271
02:18:22,040 --> 02:18:25,720
These two photographs, these two, would you like to say come on?

1272
02:18:26,420 --> 02:18:33,040
One's look to the, you know, are identical to the ones that were in the other case file.

1273
02:18:33,500 --> 02:18:35,140
These two in particular,

1274
02:18:37,440 --> 02:18:38,840
I don't know if they are or they're not.

1275
02:18:39,120 --> 02:18:40,900
Just simply we can't, you know,

1276
02:18:43,790 --> 02:18:49,850
well, let's, let's, let's do this.

1277
02:18:49,850 --> 02:19:06,770
This, um, staff needs to look at both of these files and update them for the record to see if there are duplicate pictures in which is, yeah, which is which that's not a, okay, you already, give me a moment.

1278
02:19:08,130 --> 02:19:10,450
If I can speak, where are you doing that?

1279
02:19:12,190 --> 02:19:18,550
So probably the simplest thing is I've been to the building department multiple times.

1280
02:19:18,990 --> 02:19:25,830
Two and a half years ago when this problem first arrived, we asked for a building permit.

1281
02:19:26,070 --> 02:19:31,270
We've been two and a half years with the City of Oakland Park trying to get a building permit.

1282
02:19:31,270 --> 02:19:39,610
I was here two weeks ago, and every time I come here, they say, I'm days away, you're days away.

1283
02:19:40,090 --> 02:19:45,670
We're resubmitting, we're this, we're that, I wouldn't even be here right now because

1284
02:19:45,670 --> 02:19:51,390
everything would be inside of my building if the City of Oakland Park could issue a building

1285
02:19:51,390 --> 02:19:53,010
permit in a timely manner.

1286
02:19:55,390 --> 02:19:59,870
So this is this

1287
02:20:00,000 --> 02:20:00,880
I'll give you a moment.

1288
02:20:06,170 --> 02:20:07,710
The Dave

1289
02:20:10,110 --> 02:20:11,730
Mowatt case, the prior one,

1290
02:20:14,350 --> 02:20:19,750
this is a photograph that was introduced into evidence in that case.

1291
02:20:19,890 --> 02:20:20,110
Okay.

1292
02:20:23,410 --> 02:20:27,150
Same photograph introduced in this case. So which of the two doesn't go to?

1293
02:20:27,970 --> 02:20:30,530
I'm looking right now. I'm fine. Real quick.

1294
02:20:31,250 --> 02:20:41,510
All right, so let's go back. Essentially the same conversation we had with the tenant that before.

1295
02:20:41,510 --> 02:20:48,430
or do you have a business there or does a tenant?

1296
02:20:48,610 --> 02:20:57,790
I don't know if you lease this or the reason why is because you can have this type of activity

1297
02:20:57,790 --> 02:21:02,410
at this location as an accessory use to a primary use.

1298
02:21:02,870 --> 02:21:09,830
If you don't have an auto shop, again, as the example I gave, where you're storing the vehicles

1299
02:21:09,830 --> 02:21:14,890
you're working on in the storage yard, you can't have this use here.

1300
02:21:15,270 --> 02:21:20,230
And you're saying that you're working with city staff, that's fine.

1301
02:21:20,910 --> 02:21:26,010
What I'm inclined to do at this point is do the exact same thing I did with the prior case,

1302
02:21:26,570 --> 02:21:29,410
which is continue the matter for 30 days.

1303
02:21:29,830 --> 02:21:38,570
So you and the staff can work through that issue and come back and tell me because as I told the tenant

1304
02:21:38,570 --> 02:21:41,590
the other property, same thing is a here.

1305
02:21:41,930 --> 02:21:45,070
If they tell you that, hey, we can't issue a permit.

1306
02:21:45,150 --> 02:21:46,770
You're saying you've been going through it for two years?

1307
02:21:47,150 --> 02:21:49,590
I don't know why they have it, however long.

1308
02:21:50,110 --> 02:21:52,210
Don't know why they haven't issued you a permit.

1309
02:21:52,510 --> 02:21:54,730
There must be some reason, okay?

1310
02:21:57,950 --> 02:22:03,470
So, let's find out what the reason why, if you can, or can't do this.

1311
02:22:03,470 --> 02:22:10,290
I believe I've been in close contact with my architect who's been in close contact

1312
02:22:10,290 --> 02:22:15,030
with the building department, and I mean, literally, everybody's on the same

1313
02:22:15,030 --> 02:22:18,110
page that were days away.

1314
02:22:19,110 --> 02:22:23,990
And I, you know, this is a situation where, in theory, you might be able to do what

1315
02:22:23,990 --> 02:22:25,370
you are allowed to do.

1316
02:22:25,470 --> 02:22:25,950
I don't want to.

1317
02:22:26,250 --> 02:22:32,810
Well, but it's, it's to put it in very simple terms, chicken for the egg.

1318
02:22:32,810 --> 02:22:38,830
You need to have the primary use before you can have the accessory use a storage.

1319
02:22:39,230 --> 02:22:42,490
If you don't have the primary use, you don't get to the second one.

1320
02:22:42,730 --> 02:22:47,470
So I don't know the circumstances other than what's been presented here.

1321
02:22:48,890 --> 02:22:52,850
They're telling me or that there is no primary use here at this location.

1322
02:22:53,370 --> 02:23:01,950
So we're back to the same scenario as the other owner, either you were there prior to 1990 doing this.

1323
02:23:01,950 --> 02:23:09,290
which I doubt, or you have gone through the process of establishing a legally operated

1324
02:23:09,290 --> 02:23:11,470
business there where this is an accessory use.

1325
02:23:11,910 --> 02:23:13,150
I have no desire.

1326
02:23:14,810 --> 02:23:16,850
So I want to build a building.

1327
02:23:17,150 --> 02:23:17,510
It's simple.

1328
02:23:17,510 --> 02:23:17,930
I understand.

1329
02:23:18,190 --> 02:23:19,950
But then the vehicle's got to get removed.

1330
02:23:20,170 --> 02:23:20,330
Yes.

1331
02:23:20,730 --> 02:23:21,770
No, no, I agree.

1332
02:23:22,230 --> 02:23:22,490
Okay.

1333
02:23:22,550 --> 02:23:23,430
I absolutely agree.

1334
02:23:23,850 --> 02:23:31,930
But I'm not inclined to removing the vehicles until I start doing the business.

1335
02:23:31,930 --> 02:23:41,690
building and here's the reason I say that because seven months ago I was days away from getting my building permit.

1336
02:23:42,090 --> 02:23:45,390
I can only go by what I'm being told by the city of Oakland Park, sir.

1337
02:23:45,910 --> 02:23:51,710
That's right. I understand but the city of Oakland Park is here telling you today that you can't have the vehicles there.

1338
02:23:51,930 --> 02:23:58,910
You got to put the building first there first. You know, it is checking before the egg. You have to make the decision which you want to do.

1339
02:23:58,910 --> 02:24:14,590
If the city comes back and tells you, which is what I understand that no, then in 30 days, I'll enter an order saying you have whatever reasonable period of time to remove the vehicles, if not a daily final start to a crew.

1340
02:24:15,270 --> 02:24:17,050
And then it's up to you what you want to do.

1341
02:24:17,050 --> 02:24:21,310
No, no, I feel like the building department is going to come through in the next 30 days.

1342
02:24:22,490 --> 02:24:30,030
So the day I get issued the building permit, regardless, the vehicles will be gone in the 30 days.

1343
02:24:30,190 --> 02:24:32,490
So if that's what needs to happen, so good.

1344
02:24:32,510 --> 02:24:38,490
That would be my strong suggestion, but that's up to you and you have the 30 day continuous to try and

1345
02:24:38,490 --> 02:24:40,770
figure out what you can and can't do.

1346
02:24:41,390 --> 02:24:42,390
And just staff.

1347
02:24:43,830 --> 02:24:48,750
You are on our just one through the files and make sure the right photos are on the

1348
02:24:48,750 --> 02:24:48,830
right.

1349
02:24:49,390 --> 02:24:55,630
Well, that particular photo was duplicate and it belonged to Case 26157, the prior one.

1350
02:24:55,690 --> 02:24:57,270
One of the others looked like a duplicate.

1351
02:24:57,450 --> 02:24:59,950
All I'm saying is that I will review it.

1352
02:25:00,000 --> 02:25:04,000
We review that and make sure that the right photographs are in the right file.

1353
02:25:04,260 --> 02:25:04,560
Yes, sir.

1354
02:25:06,060 --> 02:25:07,240
30-day continuance.

1355
02:25:07,300 --> 02:25:08,320
I will be fixed in there.

1356
02:25:08,340 --> 02:25:08,520
All right.

1357
02:25:09,640 --> 02:25:09,720
Thank you.

1358
02:25:09,720 --> 02:25:10,480
We're in my address ago.

1359
02:25:12,880 --> 02:25:19,980
Case SM-26158, 1851, Northwest 29th Street, owner of record, Damon and Kelly Carroll.

1360
02:25:20,680 --> 02:25:21,920
30-day continuance.

1361
02:25:21,920 --> 02:25:23,040
Next

1362
02:25:26,690 --> 02:25:38,330
is item number 13, under certifications, Assam 26067, 461 Northwest, 35th Street, Officer Gilbert Venaro.

1363
02:25:39,070 --> 02:25:41,230
This is Dave

1364
02:25:43,310 --> 02:25:46,110
Moat, and this is Mr. Carroll.

1365
02:25:50,190 --> 02:25:50,370
Yes.

1366
02:25:51,730 --> 02:25:59,070
Inspector Venaro presenting case SM-26092, property address of 160 Northwest 36th Street.

1367
02:25:59,070 --> 02:26:02,190
owner of record is James Carpene.

1368
02:26:03,390 --> 02:26:08,310
This is a violation of 24.65 on licensed vehicles.

1369
02:26:09,030 --> 02:26:18,430
At a crewing amount of 7,600, the original hearing date was 521 of 26 with a compliance state of 6,5 of 2026.

1370
02:26:19,170 --> 02:26:22,430
A fine amount of $100 per day and 175 atman fees.

1371
02:26:22,730 --> 02:26:26,050
And as of this day, it maintains the same.

1372
02:26:26,250 --> 02:26:26,850
Nothing has changed.

1373
02:26:26,850 --> 02:26:37,420
All right. This is case SM-26-092 on record James Carpening. Is there anyone here?

1374
02:26:42,610 --> 02:26:42,610
Did

1375
02:26:43,620 --> 02:26:48,510
they sign in and leave? All right. Then we'll just dispose of it.

1376
02:26:51,610 --> 02:26:54,510
Again, case SM-26-092,

1377
02:26:54,930 --> 02:27:00,410
address the record as zero northwest 36 street on record James Carpening. Is there anyone

1378
02:27:00,410 --> 02:27:02,610
One in the audience, other than staff to speak to this matter.

1379
02:27:03,070 --> 02:27:13,450
Seeing no one, I'm going to accept the staff report and find that this matter is properly before the special magistrate on a certification request, and

1380
02:27:13,450 --> 02:27:24,810
going to make a determination that the special magistrate previously found this property and property under violation of Section 24.65 on licensed vehicles, city code of Oakland Park.

1381
02:27:25,450 --> 02:27:29,550
that the property is still in non-compliance as of today's date, as a result.

1382
02:27:29,810 --> 02:27:34,970
A final $7,600 is accrued and continues to accrue in the daily amount of $100 per day.

1383
02:27:35,290 --> 02:27:38,770
Plus $175 admin fee, I'm going to certify that amount.

1384
02:27:39,350 --> 02:27:43,590
And authorize staff to record an order to that effect in the public records of Broward County.

1385
02:27:43,890 --> 02:27:46,070
And the same shall constitute a lien against the property.

1386
02:27:46,070 --> 02:27:47,130
Next

1387
02:27:56,600 --> 02:28:06,200
is item number 13, SM 26067, 461 Northwest 35th Street, Officer Gilbert Venero.

1388
02:28:17,120 --> 02:28:24,620
Inspect the Venero presenting case SM 26067, Property Address of 461 Northwest 35th Street.

1389
02:28:25,360 --> 02:28:31,140
Owner of Verkner's Matthew Dodd, Biolation is Section 5.3, Permanence Required.

1390
02:28:32,060 --> 02:28:34,180
An accruing amount of $9,900.

1391
02:28:34,180 --> 02:28:40,560
The original hearing date was 416 of 2026 with a compliance date of 615 of 2026.

1392
02:28:40,880 --> 02:28:48,860
A fine amount of 150 per day plus 135 admin fee, the permits some have been issued, but

1393
02:28:48,860 --> 02:28:51,240
there's still some in review and we're still waiting.

1394
02:28:51,920 --> 02:28:53,240
And there's a representative here.

1395
02:28:54,660 --> 02:28:56,560
Sir, you aren't the last one.

1396
02:28:56,720 --> 02:28:58,440
I saw you, it's up good to.

1397
02:29:00,760 --> 02:29:08,640
I was here two months ago and thank you for giving us the 30 days, I think, to file

1398
02:29:08,640 --> 02:29:15,540
the permits and by the time I left here 48 hours later, I went to the front and I said

1399
02:29:15,540 --> 02:29:20,080
I have to pay the admin fee that measures for the today and I paid that.

1400
02:29:21,380 --> 02:29:25,060
What's happening here right now is very, very simple, your honor.

1401
02:29:25,060 --> 02:29:28,740
But Matt Dodd is a very, very good friend of mine.

1402
02:29:30,240 --> 02:29:33,600
I don't do this for a living, but I represent him as a friend.

1403
02:29:34,540 --> 02:29:37,520
He just purchased this house he had an a half ago.

1404
02:29:38,480 --> 02:29:44,060
He called my company to do some pressure cleaning for his residents, which we did.

1405
02:29:45,100 --> 02:29:50,920
And at that time he said, well, I need to get that fence replaced, I need to get this done,

1406
02:29:51,300 --> 02:29:52,200
I need to get that done.

1407
02:29:52,600 --> 02:29:53,240
I'm like, okay.

1408
02:29:54,320 --> 02:29:59,960
We were told that we need to have a permit to change the fence, because the fence was all right and would.

1409
02:30:01,420 --> 02:30:29,480
So, I was the one person that came to the city and I applied for the permit on his behalf, and I communicated with everybody here and everybody very professional. We obtained the permit and we paid the permit to install a new fence. Then he discovered later on that we needed a permit to do some driveway repair by the garage. We applied for a permit.

1410
02:30:29,480 --> 02:30:31,200
And we paid for the permit.

1411
02:30:31,940 --> 02:30:38,200
When I met all of you guys, I was told that I had to pay an administration fee, and

1412
02:30:38,200 --> 02:30:40,640
I have to keep going with what's going on.

1413
02:30:40,900 --> 02:30:45,120
And we are working, we are doing what the city wants us to do.

1414
02:30:47,600 --> 02:30:49,520
Two issues, your honour.

1415
02:30:50,240 --> 02:30:58,180
One, we were told that we had to move the AC unit from the front of the house to the back

1416
02:30:58,180 --> 02:31:04,560
of the house. Matt died when he bought this house. He bought this house as is. The way how it is.

1417
02:31:04,680 --> 02:31:10,700
He had it inspected. He paid for it. Now, he's in a process of doing a refinance on the house.

1418
02:31:11,500 --> 02:31:16,940
We discovered your honor that the city of Auckland Park already approved

1419
02:31:17,540 --> 02:31:24,880
to have that easy unit at that location what it is today. I came personally. I met a lovely lady.

1420
02:31:24,880 --> 02:31:29,820
she was very nice and then she said okay so you don't need to move it you just need this

1421
02:31:30,660 --> 02:31:36,840
I picked up the phone I called the GC and I told him okay we don't need to move the AC unit

1422
02:31:36,840 --> 02:31:47,600
we just need to get this calculation of the AC unit he said yeah I know someone I haven't

1423
02:31:47,600 --> 02:31:52,840
heard back from him I was like dude listen I got to take care of this right away I personally your

1424
02:31:52,840 --> 02:31:59,980
owner called two people. They own AC companies. I don't know. I need to do some calculations

1425
02:31:59,980 --> 02:32:06,960
about the AC unit in the front. Nobody. If you know, if the city can direct me towards

1426
02:32:06,960 --> 02:32:13,280
someone that I can call today and ask them to go to that house and do the AC calculation

1427
02:32:13,280 --> 02:32:25,480
for the unit. I'll be more than happy to do so, sir. On June the 15th, the $150 fee

1428
02:32:25,480 --> 02:32:34,940
start occurring. On June the 26th, the record shows that for the windows and doors, everything

1429
02:32:34,940 --> 02:32:40,960
was submitted to the city, and it was in review. So we are complying. I'm here on behalf

1430
02:32:40,960 --> 02:32:48,980
of Meddad, I'm trying to help him. I'm not a GZ, you know, and I just need assistant.

1431
02:32:49,960 --> 02:32:55,480
And I need something from the city that will allow me to show to someone or some type of

1432
02:32:55,480 --> 02:33:02,040
directions to who can assist me so I can provide the information that the City of Ocromport.

1433
02:33:03,660 --> 02:33:09,460
So let's stop there and see if we can get some clarification and some assistance.

1434
02:33:09,620 --> 02:33:09,780
Please.

1435
02:33:11,080 --> 02:33:19,820
And the fees, they start occurring on June the 15th, but the record showed that on June the 26th,

1436
02:33:19,920 --> 02:33:26,160
it shows that it was completed and it's in review.

1437
02:33:26,160 --> 02:33:34,420
why? Because I had to hire an architect to create something for the city, which was submitted

1438
02:33:34,420 --> 02:33:40,580
by the GC. And if you were sent to them for review. And now, quite honestly, your honor,

1439
02:33:40,900 --> 02:33:44,440
I'm getting to the point where I'm just going to get to the bottom line of this. I'm just going

1440
02:33:44,440 --> 02:33:50,420
to get another GC. And I'm going to stay on the top of them every single day until one district

1441
02:33:50,420 --> 02:33:51,920
the statistics is done on an overwid.

1442
02:33:52,580 --> 02:34:02,860
All right, so a couple things, let's kind of roll back and go back to how we got here.

1443
02:34:03,200 --> 02:34:03,560
Yes, sir.

1444
02:34:04,320 --> 02:34:06,440
So, we

1445
02:34:11,270 --> 02:34:22,280
had a hearing of the original hearing date back in April, May, April.

1446
02:34:23,260 --> 02:34:41,860
And, you know, staff entered into evidence, various photographs and other items, one of them or one of them in particular, but there's several others is this photograph of someone actually doing the work.

1447
02:34:41,860 --> 02:34:51,440
so it's pretty it's evident from the photograph that the front door was

1448
02:34:51,440 --> 02:34:58,840
being replaced and work was ongoing there is actually right next to the

1449
02:34:58,840 --> 02:34:59,720
in the photograph.

1450
02:35:00,000 --> 02:35:28,940
And the picture of the notice of violation is right there. I don't know why they continue to do the work without the benefit of a permit. But, really, at the end of the day, that is the issue. So you've started the process, let me, you've started the process. Compliance under the law, I said this before, some of the other people, is not when you submit the application.

1451
02:35:28,940 --> 02:35:39,540
But when you actually get the permit, because while it may be in review, the building department, the building official may determine that there's missing information.

1452
02:35:40,220 --> 02:35:45,400
And as a result, they can't determine whether or not the plans comply with the Florida Building Code or not.

1453
02:35:46,160 --> 02:35:55,360
So even though you submitted the application last month, or back in June,

1454
02:35:57,560 --> 02:36:07,800
The length of time leads me to believe that there's been an issue that has been identified by the building department that needs correction.

1455
02:36:09,140 --> 02:36:21,440
The only person who can correct that information is either a licensed architecture engineer or a licensed general contractor.

1456
02:36:21,440 --> 02:36:21,760
Yes.

1457
02:36:21,760 --> 02:36:30,240
And to the extent that you have any of those individuals or companies working for you,

1458
02:36:30,560 --> 02:36:35,160
they need to make sure that what they've submitted to the city compiles very far.

1459
02:36:35,220 --> 02:36:36,520
I'm going to be on the top of it.

1460
02:36:36,660 --> 02:36:40,920
And for the record, you can ask the inspector, I've been working with him.

1461
02:36:41,040 --> 02:36:42,880
He knows that I'm going my best.

1462
02:36:43,580 --> 02:36:47,580
And when he goes to a GC and that he goes to an architect, it's out of my hand.

1463
02:36:47,580 --> 02:37:01,100
And, you know, I'm not, I'm, you know, I'm not, you know, making any, I'm just making a statement that, you know, whoever did this, Mr.

1464
02:37:01,440 --> 02:37:08,300
and ultimately Mr. Mr. Dodd, should have known that he needed a permit to do this.

1465
02:37:08,500 --> 02:37:09,360
Yeah, okay.

1466
02:37:09,620 --> 02:37:11,260
And so that's why we're here.

1467
02:37:11,300 --> 02:37:11,580
Exactly.

1468
02:37:11,580 --> 02:37:17,480
So, again, procedurally, I'm being asked to make a determination you're not in compliance.

1469
02:37:18,460 --> 02:37:22,240
And so we have two options as I've explained to everyone else in similar situation.

1470
02:37:22,760 --> 02:37:27,840
I can either give you 30 days to try and finish the process and the fines will continue to

1471
02:37:27,840 --> 02:37:32,180
accrue and then once you get compliance, we can consider a reduction.

1472
02:37:32,380 --> 02:37:40,240
Or I can certify the amount and allow you to continue the process, but you won't come back

1473
02:37:40,240 --> 02:37:48,280
before me, you'll just deal directly with city staff, both on getting the permits issued and then ultimately reducing, but right now you're not in compliance.

1474
02:37:49,140 --> 02:37:59,840
Mr. Dodd is not in compliance because he doesn't have a permit for the doors, the windows, and what was the other thing that was?

1475
02:38:00,140 --> 02:38:03,560
Your honor, I just wanted to verify we were checking in the system.

1476
02:38:04,260 --> 02:38:06,220
The windows and doors are still outstanding.

1477
02:38:06,220 --> 02:38:10,660
There's some questions about it, so he needs to address that in order to finalize that.

1478
02:38:10,840 --> 02:38:13,300
So, are those the things that are still outstanding?

1479
02:38:13,520 --> 02:38:17,380
Well, there's also something under mechanical, but we're trying to figure out exactly what.

1480
02:38:17,540 --> 02:38:19,380
And the AC, yeah, the AC.

1481
02:38:19,920 --> 02:38:28,380
Correct, so you know, I cannot suggest to you who to use, it would be inappropriate for me to do so.

1482
02:38:28,820 --> 02:38:30,880
I think staff is in the same position.

1483
02:38:30,880 --> 02:38:38,260
I don't know why my guess, my educated guess, I don't mean the, my educated guess is

1484
02:38:38,260 --> 02:38:43,580
whoever needs is going to do the calculations for you, is going to want to get, wants

1485
02:38:43,580 --> 02:38:45,420
to get paid to do so.

1486
02:38:46,500 --> 02:38:52,680
And so you just have to, you know, there isn't yellow pages anymore.

1487
02:38:54,600 --> 02:39:11,860
is Google and start at AAA plus air conditioning and go down to Zebra air conditioning and within A to Z find an air conditioning, general contractor who would be willing to do those type of service.

1488
02:39:12,800 --> 02:39:20,760
Okay, just for the record, we would mind paying the fees from June the 15 until June the 26,

1489
02:39:20,760 --> 02:39:23,360
because that's what everything was submitted.

1490
02:39:24,120 --> 02:39:30,340
No, you're missing a key component here.

1491
02:39:30,920 --> 02:39:36,300
Is submitting the paperwork does not get you into compliance?

1492
02:39:36,560 --> 02:39:43,020
What you are in violation of is Section 5.3A of the Florida building code that says,

1493
02:39:43,260 --> 02:39:48,920
before any of this ever occurred, you needed to get a building permit first.

1494
02:39:48,920 --> 02:39:58,100
So, compliance is obtaining, physically, the permit, applying for it does not get you compliance.

1495
02:40:00,000 --> 02:40:29,480
That's why I'm being very clear and repeating myself. Okay. Submitting the application is not compliance. Getting the permit is compliance. And in your case, once you get the permit, it shouldn't be that difficult because the work's already been done. Okay. It will have to be inspected. I do see the city's building official are there in the back and I'm making an educated guess.

1496
02:40:29,480 --> 02:40:33,820
That's probably agrees with me, because we've worked together on some of these cases in the past.

1497
02:40:34,900 --> 02:40:37,500
Mr. Haring, can I interject something?

1498
02:40:37,580 --> 02:40:37,960
Absolutely.

1499
02:40:38,620 --> 02:40:46,560
I'm looking at the permit, and the reviews, the first review was in December of 25.

1500
02:40:47,920 --> 02:40:49,600
It's the last time any reviews were done.

1501
02:40:50,800 --> 02:40:55,040
Okay, so nothing's been submitted since, was there a general contractor back then?

1502
02:40:55,640 --> 02:40:57,400
He had an AC contractor.

1503
02:41:02,080 --> 02:41:07,700
This gentleman sitting here telling me that something was submitted in June.

1504
02:41:10,780 --> 02:41:16,740
Again, I'm not disagreeing with you and I'm not disagreeing with you.

1505
02:41:17,280 --> 02:41:20,020
You all disagree with each other. Work it out.

1506
02:41:24,860 --> 02:41:31,680
No, the AC, that's the reason why when we discovered that the think was permitted by the city of

1507
02:41:31,680 --> 02:41:32,700
Overture Park.

1508
02:41:33,120 --> 02:41:34,300
I thought you were talking about the AC.

1509
02:41:34,320 --> 02:41:35,860
That's when the lady had the city.

1510
02:41:36,160 --> 02:41:37,740
She said, you don't need to move it.

1511
02:41:37,900 --> 02:41:39,820
This is the only thing that I need that calculation.

1512
02:41:40,680 --> 02:41:47,680
Yeah, but you still need a building permit application and the building permit issued for the doors and windows.

1513
02:41:47,680 --> 02:41:53,720
Yes, that's, you know, that's in progress, that's in review, that's in progress between the GCN and the city, yes.

1514
02:41:54,060 --> 02:41:58,620
So again, back to where we kind of started, we have two options.

1515
02:41:59,120 --> 02:42:06,180
I can certify the amount, which is accrued as of today's date, $9,900, and

1516
02:42:06,180 --> 02:42:09,160
continues to accrue in the amount of $150 a day.

1517
02:42:10,120 --> 02:42:14,100
You can continue to do what you need to do to come into compliance.

1518
02:42:14,100 --> 02:42:21,600
and you then will address the crude fine directly with staff or we continue it for 30 days

1519
02:42:22,280 --> 02:42:29,040
if you get the permit within 30 days and we come back here then I can consider a fine reduction but

1520
02:42:29,040 --> 02:42:35,740
and I want to make this absolutely clear yeah I've got to get the permit so if you're so I'm gonna

1521
02:42:35,740 --> 02:42:41,760
ask you you're on or what would you recommend to do if you were in his shoes I can't make your

1522
02:42:41,760 --> 02:42:42,220
recommendation.

1523
02:42:44,700 --> 02:42:50,060
I'm essentially the judge here. It would be an inappropriate for me to recommend.

1524
02:42:50,300 --> 02:42:54,980
I give you your options. Has the city put a lien on his property because it's

1525
02:42:54,980 --> 02:43:00,640
trying to do a refinance on his property? Not yet yet. Okay, so the amount is $9,000.

1526
02:43:01,680 --> 02:43:08,040
$9,900, but it continues to accrue until compliance. If he went and paid it tomorrow,

1527
02:43:08,040 --> 02:43:12,560
tomorrow, it's day after tomorrow, it'll start at 150.

1528
02:43:13,200 --> 02:43:15,780
And next day, 300, next day, 150.

1529
02:43:16,160 --> 02:43:21,020
If you reduce it down to a certain amount, sure, then would you give us 60 days for me

1530
02:43:21,020 --> 02:43:22,260
to finalize everything?

1531
02:43:23,980 --> 02:43:27,040
I will get everything done in 60 days.

1532
02:43:27,180 --> 02:43:28,000
I need at least 60.

1533
02:43:28,120 --> 02:43:30,960
I'm not asking for 90, but I want to be on the safe side.

1534
02:43:31,200 --> 02:43:35,320
Within 45 to 60 days, I want to have this behind us.

1535
02:43:35,320 --> 02:43:42,600
I'll give you 45 days, okay, so in and and you that's that's that's fair.

1536
02:43:42,780 --> 02:43:50,900
I'm not agree with you so that's fair in case I'm 26067 address record 461 Northwest 35th Street owner record

1537
02:43:50,900 --> 02:43:58,780
Matthew Dodd will continue this matter for 45 days actually from a practical standpoint you'll be back

1538
02:43:58,780 --> 02:44:04,740
here on October 15th, okay, so you have you have till October 14th

1539
02:44:05,440 --> 02:44:06,960
The fines will continue a group.

1540
02:44:08,060 --> 02:44:08,080
Okay.

1541
02:44:08,480 --> 02:44:09,380
Thank you.

1542
02:44:09,700 --> 02:44:10,320
Thank you.

1543
02:44:10,400 --> 02:44:17,280
So the only thing that I need to, and the prices I'm going to pay, the reduced price.

1544
02:44:19,040 --> 02:44:23,100
Well, on October, if you're in compliance, we'll talk about that then.

1545
02:44:23,580 --> 02:44:25,160
So I don't have to pay nothing now.

1546
02:44:25,280 --> 02:44:25,920
Not right now.

1547
02:44:26,140 --> 02:44:26,840
God bless you.

1548
02:44:27,380 --> 02:44:27,780
Thank you.

1549
02:44:28,200 --> 02:44:28,960
Thank you.

1550
02:44:29,040 --> 02:44:30,080
I'm just trying to put this in.

1551
02:44:30,080 --> 02:44:32,500
No, I just want to make sure that you understand that.

1552
02:44:32,500 --> 02:44:36,320
You know, every day that goes by, the fine continues to get larger.

1553
02:44:36,360 --> 02:44:38,920
I understand that, so I understand that.

1554
02:44:39,000 --> 02:44:44,280
But there is no lien that was placed on his home because he's trying to get a real finance, okay, cool.

1555
02:44:46,120 --> 02:44:52,300
All right, so the matter will continue to October 15th.

1556
02:44:52,300 --> 02:44:53,720
Okay, thank you.

1557
02:44:56,140 --> 02:44:59,580
Next item is number one, under old business.

1558
02:44:59,580 --> 02:44:59,960
you

1559
02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:07,220
Yes, I'm 26, 0, 8, 3, 4, 0, 1, northeast, 32nd street, officer, Aaron Rector.

1560
02:45:31,450 --> 02:45:32,010
Okay,

1561
02:45:35,710 --> 02:45:47,450
so I remember, refresh my memory, what did we, I continued it to allow this young lady to see if we could get compliance.

1562
02:45:47,450 --> 02:45:57,630
because from what I recall, a lot of the activities that were taken place in your property were being done by maybe family members.

1563
02:45:59,330 --> 02:46:03,590
And so where are we at and there's no-

1564
02:46:03,590 --> 02:46:07,470
No, it was the cars in the yard, in the trees.

1565
02:46:09,150 --> 02:46:10,250
That's what it was.

1566
02:46:10,250 --> 02:46:12,030
Aaron Richter, City of Oakland Park.

1567
02:46:12,830 --> 02:46:18,470
This is actually old business because she's been in conversations with me.

1568
02:46:19,210 --> 02:46:26,550
She had financial difficulty with the roof, only the roof remains, so she can explain that.

1569
02:46:27,110 --> 02:46:30,350
Okay, so do you need more time?

1570
02:46:30,970 --> 02:46:32,130
Is that the one we're here for?

1571
02:46:32,130 --> 02:46:41,410
Yeah, um, okay, previously I told you I was um, because his statement is program. We did yeah, yeah, so I

1572
02:46:41,410 --> 02:46:49,630
I've since I had to pay one of your text. So I've since paid that and I've completed the application and turn it in and

1573
02:46:49,630 --> 02:46:53,290
them. So I'm just waiting on their response. So

1574
02:46:53,290 --> 02:47:00,950
That and that's all but the other things I've met with the other thing. He said that the trees were

1575
02:47:01,730 --> 02:47:30,050
Okay. Okay. I can get rid of those trees in the back. Um, and that everything was everything was in compliance. Yeah. So I don't know how long the process is going to take the lady told me 90 days, 90 days and she'll let me know what, um, the outcome, whether it's yes or no, I mean, at that point, I guess I have the.

1576
02:47:30,050 --> 02:47:44,030
Yeah, it's very common for the grant processes to have, like, an application and approval cycle.

1577
02:47:45,410 --> 02:47:58,970
You know, since it appears that all the violations except for the replacement of the roof.

1578
02:47:58,970 --> 02:48:04,130
and I think really that violation is related to the tarp more so than the overall.

1579
02:48:05,070 --> 02:48:12,490
So one, to the extent that you can, if you haven't already, try and keep that tarp flush

1580
02:48:12,490 --> 02:48:17,990
with the roof of the, you know, some of the pictures so that it's lifted up and, you know,

1581
02:48:19,670 --> 02:48:28,050
I know this sounds very stupid, but try and keep it looking as nice as possible, okay, for the

1582
02:48:28,050 --> 02:48:38,330
benefit of you and the neighbors. And given the circumstances in knowing how sometimes

1583
02:48:38,330 --> 02:48:43,530
the grant cycle works, I'll give you additional time to come into compliance.

1584
02:48:45,550 --> 02:48:47,570
And we'll hold

1585
02:48:47,570 --> 02:48:55,450
up on the accrual of the fine, given again the issues of having to work through probably

1586
02:48:55,450 --> 02:48:58,930
the county, the CDBG grant process.

1587
02:49:01,490 --> 02:49:08,470
So I will give you 90 days to come into compliance and just come back in 90 days to give us

1588
02:49:08,470 --> 02:49:09,170
a status report.

1589
02:49:09,390 --> 02:49:16,370
Hopefully, maybe, I don't know if Officer Richter, if you're willing to do so, is maybe put

1590
02:49:18,550 --> 02:49:24,450
in a good word with the county, the CDBG people about the need to move this forward as quickly

1591
02:49:24,450 --> 02:49:25,070
as possible.

1592
02:49:25,070 --> 02:49:26,250
if it qualifies?

1593
02:49:26,350 --> 02:49:26,390
I can do that.

1594
02:49:26,390 --> 02:49:26,430
Yes.

1595
02:49:26,850 --> 02:49:29,030
I believe I have the contact information.

1596
02:49:29,490 --> 02:49:29,590
Great.

1597
02:49:30,550 --> 02:49:31,430
And best of luck.

1598
02:49:32,170 --> 02:49:32,230
Thank you.

1599
02:49:32,230 --> 02:49:42,370
So in case I'm 26-083-401-0302nd Street, the owner of record, Andrew Young, based upon the

1600
02:49:42,370 --> 02:49:47,910
evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, I'm going to make a finding that all the violations

1601
02:49:47,910 --> 02:49:57,910
have been complied with except for the Section 24.79.1E5B exterior surface maintenance.

1602
02:50:00,000 --> 02:50:05,460
So the property under 90 days to, um, extensive time to come in compliance.

1603
02:50:08,780 --> 02:50:13,200
And hold the, uh, advance, the cruel fines and

1604
02:50:13,200 --> 02:50:17,600
advance, uh, during that time period. Best of luck, keep us posted or keep off

1605
02:50:17,600 --> 02:50:20,400
the record posted, okay? Thank you.

1606
02:50:24,100 --> 02:50:25,400
I didn't see old business there.

1607
02:50:28,530 --> 02:50:38,990
Next is item number 11 under new cases, Assum 26153, 3001 Northwest, 26th Street, Officer Gilbert Venero.

1608
02:50:39,890 --> 02:50:44,870
Code Inspector Venero, on behalf of the city, presenting case, Assum 26153.

1609
02:50:45,350 --> 02:50:53,890
The property address of 3,001 Northwest, 26th Street, owner of record according to BCPA is, let's see.

1610
02:50:53,890 --> 02:50:57,210
Denise and Trickson, Brown, Francis.

1611
02:50:57,930 --> 02:51:02,210
The property mailing address is 3,001 northwest 26th Street.

1612
02:51:02,810 --> 02:51:07,470
This is a homestead property service was obtained by certified mail posting of the property in City Hall.

1613
02:51:07,830 --> 02:51:12,230
This case was open on March 26th of 2026 by my observation.

1614
02:51:12,650 --> 02:51:15,770
The following steps were conducted to obtain compliance.

1615
02:51:16,270 --> 02:51:19,730
Notice of violation was issued and posted on April 26th of 2026.

1616
02:51:19,730 --> 02:51:27,570
The property was cited for the following city ordinance violations, section 24.105A5D.

1617
02:51:27,850 --> 02:51:36,010
There's missing grass and sod in the furnace sway area of the property, section 248013, grass parking residential.

1618
02:51:36,550 --> 02:51:42,510
There's prohibitive parking on the grass at this property, subject but not limited to multiple vehicles.

1619
02:51:43,050 --> 02:51:47,470
There was no contact with the property owner or anyone related to this case.

1620
02:51:47,470 --> 02:51:52,450
the city's requesting 15 days to comply or $150 per day per violation.

1621
02:51:52,930 --> 02:52:00,190
I am submitting as evidence for this case, the notice of violation, photos depicting the property's condition and legal postings.

1622
02:52:00,550 --> 02:52:05,830
BCPA printout, notice to appear, affidavit of service, and supporting evidence.

1623
02:52:06,430 --> 02:52:13,370
I do want to add that in the pictures, we're not looking at just a couple of vehicles.

1624
02:52:13,370 --> 02:52:19,410
normally on a daily basis I see anywhere between nine vehicles parked on the

1625
02:52:19,410 --> 02:52:26,870
grass. They seem to have activity there throughout the day because I see a

1626
02:52:26,870 --> 02:52:31,070
lot of movement coming in and out to the back. In the soil area you can actually

1627
02:52:31,070 --> 02:52:39,930
see that the soils completely decimated but it was actually replaced by

1628
02:52:39,930 --> 02:52:42,250
I gravel sometime last week.

1629
02:52:43,150 --> 02:52:50,130
As of this week, I saw that they did place sod on top of the gravel, but the gravel is still present.

1630
02:52:52,450 --> 02:52:53,750
Your name for the record, please.

1631
02:52:54,170 --> 02:52:54,870
Forks and Francis.

1632
02:52:55,310 --> 02:52:56,930
Let's close to you so we get you on the record.

1633
02:52:57,270 --> 02:52:57,990
Forks and Francis.

1634
02:52:58,450 --> 02:53:00,810
And you relationship to the property?

1635
02:53:01,270 --> 02:53:02,010
We are both older.

1636
02:53:02,350 --> 02:53:02,610
Okay.

1637
02:53:02,670 --> 02:53:03,110
Forks and Francis.

1638
02:53:04,270 --> 02:53:05,670
You've heard from staff.

1639
02:53:06,150 --> 02:53:08,490
Have you seen the photographs or do you care to see the photographs?

1640
02:53:09,290 --> 02:53:09,370
All right.

1641
02:53:09,370 --> 02:53:18,390
What what happened with the area that he's talking about the sand the gravel it's very very hard to keep the grass there

1642
02:53:18,390 --> 02:53:21,210
We've tried multiple times as soon as the rainfall

1643
02:53:21,850 --> 02:53:28,550
The area is completely ruined. It's like a mudslide. So in order for us to keep the grass

1644
02:53:28,550 --> 02:53:32,750
We had to put the gravel in order to keep the grass where it is

1645
02:53:35,050 --> 02:53:37,530
You know, I

1646
02:53:37,530 --> 02:54:06,050
I don't think I as the special magistrate don't take this the wrong way I'm going to say I don't care how you come into compliance nor I do I think necessarily a city just that you come into compliance if putting down gravel or something else to assist with drainage and whatever I just will tell you that from personal experience because I just laid down sod in part of my yard where I had this kind of similar issue.

1647
02:54:06,050 --> 02:54:11,890
not necessarily with parking, but tree roots.

1648
02:54:12,090 --> 02:54:14,330
I have a big oak tree in my front yard,

1649
02:54:14,950 --> 02:54:19,250
and the roots were starting to come up,

1650
02:54:19,810 --> 02:54:21,790
and we're not allowing the grass,

1651
02:54:21,950 --> 02:54:24,750
so I had to come in and put down additional dirt

1652
02:54:24,750 --> 02:54:27,790
to make it deeper and then put the sod on top.

1653
02:54:28,470 --> 02:54:31,330
So I understand what you're talking about,

1654
02:54:32,230 --> 02:54:34,270
and how you do that is up to you.

1655
02:54:34,970 --> 02:54:40,490
I do, you know, I'm not a landscaper and I don't know whether or not the grass is going

1656
02:54:40,490 --> 02:54:44,330
to stay there with, depending upon what type of gravel you put down and if it's a mix.

1657
02:54:44,730 --> 02:54:56,970
But, what I can see from the photographs of the swale area and the reason why, you know,

1658
02:54:56,990 --> 02:54:59,970
there's problems with the grass staying there is because the car's

1659
02:55:00,000 --> 02:55:29,040
The driving over it. I mean, you know, that's, you know, that's where there are driving over that swale area to get to park the cars in the, in the front yard. And, you know, if you, those vehicles, if you, if very simply, if they continue to transit that area, doesn't matter how many times you, you do something or you try and take care of it, you're not going to solve the problem because it's the vehicles.

1660
02:55:29,040 --> 02:55:34,140
vehicles, transiting back and forth, they're going to kill whatever you try and put down

1661
02:55:34,140 --> 02:55:39,000
there. And that's the other, that's the second part of the violation, which is the cars

1662
02:55:39,000 --> 02:55:44,780
in that front yard. I mean, you know, the photographs show, you know, seven, eight vehicles.

1663
02:55:46,380 --> 02:55:53,400
You've been here through most of the hearing. You may have heard the young lady who came

1664
02:55:53,400 --> 02:55:58,380
here on her on behalf of her dad. Maybe you can expand under the code. You'll have to go

1665
02:55:58,380 --> 02:56:02,820
through the permitting process, you can expand your driveway to accommodate more cars,

1666
02:56:03,300 --> 02:56:04,620
but they can't be parked on the grass.

1667
02:56:04,960 --> 02:56:08,620
I don't make that rule up, the city commission does, and

1668
02:56:08,620 --> 02:56:14,600
it's the job of staff to enforce that and bring the cases before me.

1669
02:56:14,920 --> 02:56:20,560
And I look at the photographs and there's cars parked across your front yard and

1670
02:56:20,560 --> 02:56:27,880
that, and again, I live in a neighborhood where my kids,

1671
02:56:27,880 --> 02:56:33,080
I've said this before my kids are grown already and so I don't have, but there's a lot of

1672
02:56:33,640 --> 02:56:39,860
neighbors of mine who have expanding families and those kids are getting to the age where

1673
02:56:39,860 --> 02:56:50,720
they're all driving vehicles. And so we're closely and soon to kind of reach a tipping point in

1674
02:56:50,720 --> 02:56:54,140
my neighborhood kind of same type of issue, where do you park your vehicles?

1675
02:56:54,140 --> 02:57:01,800
vehicles. Luckily for most of my neighbors, they either have a driveway that's large enough

1676
02:57:01,800 --> 02:57:08,780
or some of them are in cul-de-sac and they can park in parts of the cul-de-sac. But what

1677
02:57:08,780 --> 02:57:15,540
do we do here? So the city is saying, hey, you got to remove the vehicles within 15 days

1678
02:57:16,220 --> 02:57:21,640
and stop parking them. Now, if you remove the vehicles and stop them from parking in your

1679
02:57:21,640 --> 02:57:28,460
front yard. My guess is I can't guarantee that you're going to give that grass a better chance

1680
02:57:29,200 --> 02:57:36,020
to grow and stay there and comply the other violation. But if you continue to allow the

1681
02:57:36,020 --> 02:57:41,420
vehicles to come in and over that area, it doesn't matter what you do, it's going to kill

1682
02:57:41,420 --> 02:57:49,520
the grass, keep you in violation of both sections of the code. So, you know, one of the jobs

1683
02:57:49,520 --> 02:57:55,600
that I have here is to hear you and say if I do make a determination, there's a violation.

1684
02:57:56,320 --> 02:57:58,960
How long is it going to take you to comply the violation?

1685
02:57:59,440 --> 02:58:01,360
They're recommending 15 days.

1686
02:58:01,880 --> 02:58:02,860
I want to hear from you.

1687
02:58:03,000 --> 02:58:05,380
Can you get the cars removed within 15 days?

1688
02:58:06,060 --> 02:58:09,700
And by that, I mean, not only do you have to remove them, but they can't come back.

1689
02:58:10,020 --> 02:58:16,020
Until you either expand your driveway to where they're parking on a hard surface.

1690
02:58:16,020 --> 02:58:22,320
You can't part, the code doesn't allow parking on graphs in the front yard, you know.

1691
02:58:22,380 --> 02:58:25,200
Is it possible to get at least 30 days with the cars?

1692
02:58:26,400 --> 02:58:32,840
Yeah, but, you know, again, it's got to be taken care of, not you're going to start

1693
02:58:32,840 --> 02:58:39,800
incurring a fine, which frankly, I don't want any of you all to incur any fines.

1694
02:58:40,740 --> 02:58:52,440
But that's the negative aspect of the process is the, again, I said, I mentioned the course of effect is that if you don't do it, you're going to start running a fine.

1695
02:58:53,600 --> 02:58:55,280
I'll give you 30 days.

1696
02:58:57,800 --> 02:58:58,420
You're honest?

1697
02:58:58,800 --> 02:58:59,840
We'll see what goes from there.

1698
02:59:00,060 --> 02:59:00,680
I want to interject.

1699
02:59:01,440 --> 02:59:10,880
The soil area, the gravel has to be removed, because the gravels are permitted on the soil, and secondly, that gravel will roll and destroy the asphalt.

1700
02:59:11,100 --> 02:59:13,640
Yeah, hold on, I'm like, yeah, so.

1701
02:59:14,420 --> 02:59:21,970
The gravel that we put there comes up to the microphone, so.

1702
02:59:22,130 --> 02:59:28,870
Because the way how the road sets, the water serves down in our sweat.

1703
02:59:29,630 --> 02:59:33,650
So every time the rain falls, it becomes a putt.

1704
02:59:33,650 --> 02:59:37,830
So even since the day we bought the house,

1705
02:59:38,110 --> 02:59:39,010
that's how it is.

1706
02:59:39,830 --> 02:59:42,270
So since we've been parking on it, it gets worse.

1707
02:59:42,490 --> 02:59:44,030
So that's why we bought the gravel.

1708
02:59:44,510 --> 02:59:46,190
Because the first time we got the ticket,

1709
02:59:46,670 --> 02:59:50,290
we laid the grass, but the water came back and do it.

1710
02:59:50,450 --> 02:59:52,650
And somebody gave us the advice,

1711
02:59:52,830 --> 02:59:54,450
say, best thing, put the gravel.

1712
02:59:54,830 --> 02:59:57,990
Make it a little harder, and then we put the grass.

1713
02:59:57,990 --> 02:59:59,090
So I

1714
03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:29,380
I kind of understand that the yard is, you know, inverted, here's the road, and it goes this way. Partly because the cars, okay, I'm not going to show you what it looks like. And then partly because of the yard being sloped as well, that water is going to cumulate and that sway layer, which frankly is what it's intended to do, by the way. But it may be that it's so deep that something needs to be done to elevate it.

1715
03:00:39,140 --> 03:00:48,840
Again, I said before, and I don't take this, and staff don't take this wrong.

1716
03:00:49,040 --> 03:00:51,120
I don't care how you come into compliance.

1717
03:00:52,040 --> 03:00:59,880
You've got to come into compliance, and you need to work with staff to find a solution.

1718
03:01:00,580 --> 03:01:17,040
because I hear what you're saying is that you, you know, I looked at the photographs, the either you need to bring in soil or a mix of soil and aggregate to help fill that.

1719
03:01:17,420 --> 03:01:28,960
So, well, no, so what you would do, I'm thinking, is put in a layer of rock of first.

1720
03:01:28,960 --> 03:01:35,180
first to fill up most of it, and then you have to put some amount of top soil, if not

1721
03:01:35,180 --> 03:01:42,080
the grass isn't going to take root and the rock will help with the drainage, but basically

1722
03:01:42,080 --> 03:01:43,200
what's called a French drain.

1723
03:01:43,880 --> 03:01:51,420
And you put the soil and the sod on top of the lower layer of rock, but it can't be just

1724
03:01:51,420 --> 03:01:56,920
Rock and then this is sought on top of it because it's not going to you want to

1725
03:01:56,920 --> 03:02:02,200
support so I'm dirt under again, you know, you know, you can you can talk to the

1726
03:02:02,200 --> 03:02:11,800
city staff. There is people who are understand that process more than I do. I'm

1727
03:02:11,800 --> 03:02:16,520
just talking, you know, so that would be probably our burst. Yeah,

1728
03:02:21,800 --> 03:02:46,300
I'm going to give you more time, okay, so to try and work out a solution, I think 15 days given the, what we're all discussing here is, isn't going to be enough time to allow you to meet with staff and figure out what level of repair needs to be done to that swell area.

1729
03:02:46,300 --> 03:02:51,340
to make sure that your grass stays there so we're not, you know, kind of cut in a loop.

1730
03:02:51,580 --> 03:02:56,080
In that case, can it be at least 60 days because we still have to take the group out of that?

1731
03:02:56,080 --> 03:03:02,300
Yeah, I'm thinking about what would be a reasonable period of time given the variables.

1732
03:03:02,940 --> 03:03:12,100
The one thing that you may want to do, what you just mentioned about what you've spent already is,

1733
03:03:12,100 --> 03:03:17,080
Certainly, I would say keep watering the grass so it doesn't die.

1734
03:03:17,600 --> 03:03:26,240
If it's not taking root and it's a palleted sod that you put down, you can take it off

1735
03:03:26,240 --> 03:03:33,420
and put it to the side and if as long as you keep it moist and it'll survive for a certain

1736
03:03:33,420 --> 03:03:41,100
period of time because I don't want you to have to spend another amount of money, whatever

1737
03:03:41,100 --> 03:03:48,260
that may be because you know you're trying to find a solution. So you know get

1738
03:03:48,260 --> 03:03:55,540
together with staff and see what information you can get from them about what

1739
03:03:55,540 --> 03:04:01,100
would be the best way to stabilize that area and and make it and put it to the

1740
03:04:01,100 --> 03:04:05,340
point where that grass will survive and then again of course is removing the

1741
03:04:05,340 --> 03:04:07,960
vehicles and not bringing them back.

1742
03:04:08,720 --> 03:04:21,440
I'll give you 60 days, because I think it's going to take some time to figure out what you need to do to stabilize that area and come to a solution.

1743
03:04:22,040 --> 03:04:25,160
But remove the vehicles now, okay?

1744
03:04:25,360 --> 03:04:30,920
So the 15 days to remove the vehicles, we're going to leave in place and

1745
03:04:30,920 --> 03:04:36,900
you then have 60 days to take care of the landscaping requirement issue, okay?

1746
03:04:37,780 --> 03:04:45,460
All right. Any questions? All right. In case SM-26153, the address is 3001

1747
03:04:45,460 --> 03:04:51,080
Northwest 26th Street. The owners of record are Trixon, Francis and Denise Brown,

1748
03:04:51,080 --> 03:04:56,440
Francis. I'm going to accept into the record the staff report. And based upon the

1749
03:04:56,440 --> 03:04:59,880
The evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, I'm going to find that the matter

1750
03:05:00,000 --> 03:05:29,760
First, properly before the special magistrate and find that there is a violation of Section 24105, Section 1A5D, landscape requirements, and Section 24.8013, grass parking, residential zoning district, city code of Oak and Park. I'm going to give the property owner 15 days to come into compliance with the grass parking provision, Section of the code, and 60 days with regard to the landscape requirements. So they failed to come into compliance with that timeframe.

1751
03:05:29,760 --> 03:05:37,860
a fine of $150 a day to a crew for each day thereafter and the $175 admin fee.

1752
03:05:37,980 --> 03:05:44,240
So to summarize, you take care of the problem within the timeframes, the 15 and 60 days.

1753
03:05:44,720 --> 03:05:48,100
The only thing that you will owe is the $175 admin fee.

1754
03:05:48,220 --> 03:05:50,320
I don't have the authority to modify or waive it.

1755
03:05:51,060 --> 03:05:53,940
If you don't, then that fine will begin to accrue.

1756
03:05:54,220 --> 03:05:56,620
I'll tell you the same thing I've said to everyone else.

1757
03:05:56,620 --> 03:06:00,540
Make sure that you're speaking to the officer, staying in contact with them.

1758
03:06:00,540 --> 03:06:06,940
And if you're working toward compliance, and just things aren't working out particular with regard to the landscape issue,

1759
03:06:07,280 --> 03:06:12,240
make sure you let him know, get you back on the calendar, and you can come back and tell me,

1760
03:06:12,320 --> 03:06:16,980
hey, we're still working through this problem with staff, we need additional time.

1761
03:06:16,980 --> 03:06:19,660
And I'll consider that and give you additional time, all right?

1762
03:06:20,080 --> 03:06:20,680
Any questions?

1763
03:06:22,140 --> 03:06:24,280
The officers are about to hand you his card.

1764
03:06:24,520 --> 03:06:26,600
Please contact him with your contact number.

1765
03:06:26,780 --> 03:06:28,800
That way I have our arborist come talk to you.

1766
03:06:35,080 --> 03:06:44,260
Next, a item number five under certifications, SM 26 077 4711 North East.

1767
03:06:45,640 --> 03:06:47,880
18th Avenue, officer Carlok.

1768
03:06:49,300 --> 03:06:54,400
You guys, code enforcement officer Carlok for the City of Oakland Park.

1769
03:06:54,400 --> 03:07:03,100
SM-26-077 cases up for certification, property address 47-11 North East 18th Avenue, the owner

1770
03:07:03,100 --> 03:07:09,800
is heritage partners LLC. The violation of the section 24-69 B-3 pool fencing and gates

1771
03:07:09,800 --> 03:07:15,720
required. We're currently at 16,500, not accruing. The original hearing date was May 21,

1772
03:07:16,340 --> 03:07:23,280
2026. It was to be complied by June 5, 2026. The final amount was 250 per day plus the 175

1773
03:07:23,280 --> 03:07:30,960
five admin fee, the property did come into compliance on August 10th, 2026, and there's a representative here from the property.

1774
03:07:33,350 --> 03:07:33,930
How you doing, Your Honor?

1775
03:07:35,390 --> 03:07:36,710
Your name for the record.

1776
03:07:36,910 --> 03:07:37,750
Let me go, Pamplona.

1777
03:07:38,130 --> 03:07:39,630
Okay, and your relationship to the property?

1778
03:07:40,610 --> 03:07:46,690
I'm basically a representative in the process of, I just signed a quick link deed today, to take ownership of the property.

1779
03:07:47,910 --> 03:07:53,150
I was aware of two violations that we were given on the same date.

1780
03:07:55,170 --> 03:07:55,690
of

1781
03:08:05,160 --> 03:08:06,760
August, I'm sorry,

1782
03:08:09,320 --> 03:08:10,940
on 2, 6, 20, 26.

1783
03:08:11,140 --> 03:08:16,280
So February 6, 20, 26, we received a violation by Mrs.

1784
03:08:16,340 --> 03:08:19,820
Aaron and Mr. Lockhart, one for the pool fencing gates, and

1785
03:08:19,820 --> 03:08:23,100
the other one for a front door, non-permanent front door.

1786
03:08:23,460 --> 03:08:28,720
I actually, we had a hearing on July 7th, for

1787
03:08:28,720 --> 03:08:30,760
the permit issue for the front door.

1788
03:08:31,580 --> 03:08:35,780
As soon as we got both violations, I hired a handyman to take care of the pool

1789
03:08:36,300 --> 03:08:41,060
They basically got painted, he did a repair job on them, I don't think it was the best.

1790
03:08:42,780 --> 03:08:49,400
Apparently we came to court on July 7th, my partner, Mr. Austin did, which he's actually very ill right now.

1791
03:08:49,880 --> 03:08:52,080
And you know, I've been kind of taking everything on my own.

1792
03:08:53,860 --> 03:08:59,700
Nothing was mentioned about the pull gates when we came to this hearing on the 7th of July.

1793
03:09:00,760 --> 03:09:08,620
And Mr. Lockhe told me that we had received the court hearing for the pool fences, but we never received the court hearing.

1794
03:09:09,700 --> 03:09:16,300
I was under impression the whole time that we were compliance when I painted them and got them basically repaired.

1795
03:09:18,080 --> 03:09:23,680
And the other day, I went to the house and I seen this on the door, a fine for $19,000.

1796
03:09:24,400 --> 03:09:29,660
for not being the compliance report gate, I immediately called a company to come out.

1797
03:09:30,520 --> 03:09:37,360
And they, Mr. Lockhe saw the gates, they completely redid the front and made them compliant.

1798
03:09:38,680 --> 03:09:44,360
But the whole time, from the moment they put the notices, we've been in contact with Mrs.

1799
03:09:44,480 --> 03:09:51,660
Aaron and Mr. Lockhe, while my partner was Mr. Austin, I just made contact with him last week when I got the gates repaired.

1800
03:09:54,500 --> 03:09:59,860
But yeah, all you're here, all I can say is that.

1801
03:10:00,000 --> 03:10:07,940
All you're here for today is the fencing and gate issue. If there was another violation,

1802
03:10:09,380 --> 03:10:12,260
it's either been resolved and it's not before me.

1803
03:10:12,780 --> 03:10:14,120
Well, it's in the process right now.

1804
03:10:14,120 --> 03:10:14,840
That's not before you.

1805
03:10:14,860 --> 03:10:15,780
That's on the building case.

1806
03:10:16,020 --> 03:10:17,900
That'll be brought to you in the building side if it continues.

1807
03:10:18,840 --> 03:10:19,280
Oh, Joy.

1808
03:10:20,160 --> 03:10:24,180
So we'll deal with that one at that point in time.

1809
03:10:25,180 --> 03:10:34,360
But, you know, I'm looking through the file and you're more than welcome to, it's your right to see this information as well.

1810
03:10:34,980 --> 03:10:46,320
There was a notice of violation hearing on the gate sent out on somewhere

1811
03:10:53,070 --> 03:10:55,210
back in April

1812
03:10:58,510 --> 03:10:59,990
or May of this year.

1813
03:11:01,210 --> 03:11:02,510
Where was that sent to?

1814
03:11:02,950 --> 03:11:10,270
It was sent to Heritage Partners LLC at 4941 Northwest 48th Avenue in Tamarack.

1815
03:11:11,650 --> 03:11:14,510
It wasn't placed on the door like these notices?

1816
03:11:14,670 --> 03:11:16,770
Well, hold on, I'm going to get to that as well.

1817
03:11:17,490 --> 03:11:18,050
Yes, it was.

1818
03:11:20,580 --> 03:11:24,460
I'm not sure if that flew away or something, but we never got notice of that hearing.

1819
03:11:24,740 --> 03:11:27,600
If not, I would have called the company the same day to fix it.

1820
03:11:27,780 --> 03:11:28,860
That's my issue.

1821
03:11:28,860 --> 03:11:31,240
So it's not that we haven't been trying to be compliant.

1822
03:11:31,420 --> 03:11:34,680
We just never received the notice of the hearing for those bull gates.

1823
03:11:34,880 --> 03:11:37,820
I thought they were in compliance when I tried to face them the first time around.

1824
03:11:38,860 --> 03:11:46,800
There's a two-step process, a notice of violation is issued, and then a notice of violation hearing, which was the hearing that took place.

1825
03:11:46,820 --> 03:11:48,120
I got the notice of violation, sorry.

1826
03:11:48,260 --> 03:11:57,060
No, no, this is a third one, the one that you're, so there's been two notices sent to Heritage Partners LLC.

1827
03:11:57,060 --> 03:12:04,060
at the address I provided to you, there's a certified return receipt.

1828
03:12:04,960 --> 03:12:11,740
And in a bunch of caution, this particular city also posts the property,

1829
03:12:12,100 --> 03:12:17,480
and there's photographs in the file from the original hearing on this case,

1830
03:12:18,020 --> 03:12:24,860
that show, and there's affidavits in the record where the notice of violation and

1831
03:12:24,860 --> 03:12:31,440
And the notice of hearing were both posted one here on the side, I'm not sure which one this one that looks like that's the notice of violation.

1832
03:12:32,120 --> 03:12:41,800
And the notice of hearing was actually posted on the front door in 5, 7, 20, 26.

1833
03:12:43,140 --> 03:12:50,200
The notice of violation was posted on 2, 6, 20, 26 according to the date stamp.

1834
03:12:50,200 --> 03:13:16,100
So, and it was mailed, so the city doubled down, as they say, and sent the notice by mail, which is a requirement, and they also have the authority or the ability to also post, which by the way they don't have to because mailing under the statute is actually sufficient, but they went a step further and also posted the property.

1835
03:13:16,100 --> 03:13:23,240
So, you know, and so when I get these cases, if you've heard, you know, you have sat

1836
03:13:23,240 --> 03:13:27,620
through them, you'll hear me say, you know, this case is properly before the special

1837
03:13:27,620 --> 03:13:32,080
magistrate, which is legalese for saying, I've looked through the file and all the

1838
03:13:32,080 --> 03:13:35,860
notices that are required have been sent, and therefore the case is properly

1839
03:13:35,860 --> 03:13:40,020
before me, because if they don't comply with these requirements, I will continue

1840
03:13:40,020 --> 03:13:48,280
the matter and say you have to prove a service before you know I can hear the case, do process.

1841
03:13:49,660 --> 03:14:01,460
But in this case, as I said, there are photographs in the file that indicate not only was

1842
03:14:01,460 --> 03:14:07,720
a posting but there's also the affidavits of service where under oath the officer has

1843
03:14:07,720 --> 03:14:21,060
has issued an statement saying that they posted the property on 52026, that was the code

1844
03:14:30,060 --> 03:14:42,520
enforcement case and then the notice of hearing and then the notice of violation was posted on February 6, 2026 according to the affidavit in the photographs.

1845
03:14:42,520 --> 03:14:47,560
So and last but not least

1846
03:14:50,210 --> 03:14:52,050
it

1847
03:14:55,000 --> 03:14:59,300
was hold on the U.S. Postal service

1848
03:15:04,260 --> 03:15:20,100
Attempted to deliver, but no one signed for the notice at the address. Apparently, hold on. See, this is 984. So, one of the notices someone signed for.

1849
03:15:20,900 --> 03:15:26,360
And the other one, someone decided not to sign and accept service.

1850
03:15:26,700 --> 03:15:34,120
So, for the, no was signed for, for the hearing date, your item

1851
03:15:40,740 --> 03:15:45,880
was delivered to an individual at the address at 2.10 pm on February 23rd, 2026.

1852
03:15:45,880 --> 03:15:56,580
So, someone signed for the notice of violation because the, the notice of hearing was sent out afterwards.

1853
03:15:56,580 --> 03:16:08,560
So, the February date, there was a delivery attempt on May 4th of the notice of hearing and whoever was at the address refused to sign to accept it.

1854
03:16:09,100 --> 03:16:19,820
But it was then posted on the property, so I understand you didn't, but what I'm trying to say with all due respect, as a special

1855
03:16:19,820 --> 03:16:49,500
I made a finding of formal determination that the city complied with the notice requirements back then I can't explain why you didn't see it or how it didn't I don't know how often you go to the property or if there was someone living there that may have taken it I don't know that's that and don't take this wrong way that's it's it's it's on you you know because the city has done all the things or did all the things that needed to do

1856
03:16:49,500 --> 03:16:53,480
in order to present the case properly before me.

1857
03:16:54,180 --> 03:17:10,540
With all that said, okay, you're in compliance and under the circumstances I would grant you or give you the same relief, I've given everyone else, that's come before me in similar situation.

1858
03:17:10,900 --> 03:17:17,120
I'll reduce it down instead of you having to potentially pay a fine of $16,500.

1859
03:17:17,120 --> 03:17:27,020
dollars. I'll reduce that down to 10%, which is $1,650 plus the $175 admin fee for a total of $1,825.

1860
03:17:28,240 --> 03:17:32,340
If it's payable within 30 days, unless you need additional time. And as I said before,

1861
03:17:32,540 --> 03:17:39,060
you need to tell me why you need additional time. And I'm giving you the same relief and

1862
03:17:39,060 --> 03:17:45,900
courtesy. I've provided to everyone else in the same situation. But as I said before, I've

1863
03:17:45,900 --> 03:17:50,600
We've already made a determination back in what may.

1864
03:17:51,180 --> 03:17:56,080
When this case was presented to me initially, that the city complied with the notice requirements.

1865
03:17:56,740 --> 03:18:04,520
I can't explain why you say you didn't get it because the notice of violation was accepted in the mail.

1866
03:18:05,280 --> 03:18:09,880
And there's photographs and affidavits saying that they posted both notices.

1867
03:18:09,880 --> 03:18:17,380
And the only thing that was rejected was the notice of hearing because whoever was at the address refused to accept it.

1868
03:18:18,060 --> 03:18:21,800
Right, I understand that the hair, does it, partners, that's the address of the company.

1869
03:18:22,000 --> 03:18:28,360
And like I said, Mr. Austin, which Mr. Lockheed made contact with multiple times, he's been very sick and ill, so nobody's been there.

1870
03:18:28,760 --> 03:18:31,920
That's why I guess somebody rejected the notice.

1871
03:18:32,440 --> 03:18:36,160
I go to the property once in a while because I maintain it, but it has been vacant.

1872
03:18:36,980 --> 03:18:44,240
I never saw a notice on the door, I would have took care of it right then and there, just like I did when I received the $19,000 notice.

1873
03:18:44,480 --> 03:18:48,920
I called companies the same day, I was hoping maybe you'd have some heart for me and just maybe.

1874
03:18:49,100 --> 03:18:50,380
I am having heart.

1875
03:18:50,520 --> 03:18:55,620
I'm giving you the 10 for the adoption that I give everyone else, as I said to someone else who asks,

1876
03:18:55,760 --> 03:18:57,380
well, hey, can you do something better for me?

1877
03:18:57,860 --> 03:18:59,040
No, I got to treat everyone equally.

1878
03:18:59,280 --> 03:19:05,000
Otherwise, we get into trouble for not treating everyone fairly and equally.

1879
03:19:05,000 --> 03:19:10,020
It was just an honest mistake, it wasn't because I was trying to not be compliant.

1880
03:19:11,400 --> 03:19:18,960
And I appreciate, and the city does appreciate, all I can say to you is you're aware of the issues.

1881
03:19:19,720 --> 03:19:29,620
Make sure that you're communicating and hopefully we can get the other matter resolved before it has to come back before me, the building permit issue.

1882
03:19:29,620 --> 03:19:37,400
So I just got the permit today, so I'm going to have to get that over with.

1883
03:19:37,480 --> 03:19:41,140
Then it won't have to, it won't, it will get pulled off the agenda and you won't have

1884
03:19:41,140 --> 03:19:41,580
to come back.

1885
03:19:42,900 --> 03:19:50,280
We're here in case SM26077, the address of record is 4711 North East 18th Avenue, the owner

1886
03:19:50,280 --> 03:19:52,240
of record is Heritage Partners LLC.

1887
03:19:53,400 --> 03:19:56,760
I'm going to accept into the record, the staff report.

1888
03:19:56,760 --> 03:19:59,920
I'm going to make a finding that the matter is properly before this.

1889
03:20:00,000 --> 03:20:29,900
Special Magistrate. It's here on a certification request. And based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon, I'm going to find that the Special Magistrate's previous order, finding the property to be in violation of Section 24, 69 B3, pull fencing and gates required code section of the city of Oakland Park has been brought in compliance, but was brought in compliance. Pass the date set forth and said order as a result of a fine of $16,500 as a crude plus the

1890
03:20:29,900 --> 03:20:45,660
an admin fee of $175 going to reduce that amount to $1,650 plus the $175 admin fee for a grand total $1,825 payable within 30 days.

1891
03:20:46,420 --> 03:20:49,060
Is it possible to get 60 days to pay that on your own?

1892
03:20:49,120 --> 03:20:50,980
Give me 45, okay.

1893
03:20:51,180 --> 03:20:51,480
Thank you.

1894
03:20:51,860 --> 03:20:53,580
All right, 45 days.

1895
03:20:55,940 --> 03:20:58,260
Best of luck and hopefully I don't have to see you again.

1896
03:20:58,260 --> 03:20:59,840
All right, thank you guys.

1897
03:21:00,060 --> 03:21:00,700
Thank you.

1898
03:21:03,850 --> 03:21:14,270
Next aside, number seven, under certifications, SP251701830 Northwest 32nd Street Officer Gilbert Venero.

1899
03:21:15,310 --> 03:21:23,110
Inspector Venero on behalf of the city, presenting case SP25170 Property Address of 1830 Northwest 32nd Street.

1900
03:21:23,670 --> 03:21:29,950
Honor of recorders, Suriana Alvers Gutierrez, violation of Section 5.3,

1901
03:21:31,390 --> 03:21:59,930
There's an accruing amount of 23,500 with the original hearing date of October 16th of 2025 to be complied by the December 15th of 2025, the fine amounts were $250 per day plus the admin fee certification hearing was held on March 19th of 2026, a 90 day extension and fine abated were offered with a fine reduction to reflect 2,300 units.

1902
03:21:59,930 --> 03:22:06,150
And 50 if compliance was achieved within the time frame and it hasn't as of yet.

1903
03:22:08,630 --> 03:22:09,790
Your name for the record.

1904
03:22:10,470 --> 03:22:12,370
John Wiggins, representing the owner.

1905
03:22:12,930 --> 03:22:15,870
All right, what's

1906
03:22:20,030 --> 03:22:20,310
going on?

1907
03:22:20,990 --> 03:22:25,330
Actually, we actually did get the permit, but she has a separate permit.

1908
03:22:25,450 --> 03:22:28,050
It's on the property one for kitchen and bathroom.

1909
03:22:28,750 --> 03:22:32,750
And then this was a separate issue that was coming up with the garage enclosure.

1910
03:22:33,550 --> 03:22:35,090
at that time we got everything

1911
03:22:35,090 --> 03:22:35,910
together with the architect

1912
03:22:35,910 --> 03:22:37,610
Smith city got the permit but

1913
03:22:37,610 --> 03:22:38,870
somehow it got kind of

1914
03:22:38,870 --> 03:22:40,370
alluded between the kitchen and

1915
03:22:40,370 --> 03:22:42,510
the bath and the garage got

1916
03:22:42,510 --> 03:22:44,070
co mingles so we had to cancel

1917
03:22:44,070 --> 03:22:46,370
that permit and now we're in the

1918
03:22:46,370 --> 03:22:47,630
process of getting that second

1919
03:22:47,630 --> 03:22:49,810
permit actually I mean I the

1920
03:22:49,810 --> 03:22:52,690
second review um we were told

1921
03:22:52,690 --> 03:22:54,090
that probably by the end of

1922
03:22:54,090 --> 03:22:55,530
next week they should have the

1923
03:22:55,530 --> 03:22:56,790
review done and then I should

1924
03:22:56,790 --> 03:22:59,350
We'll get this done just asking for an extension of 30 days.

1925
03:22:59,850 --> 03:23:00,970
I think we can get this wrapped up.

1926
03:23:04,220 --> 03:23:05,200
Staff have any?

1927
03:23:08,870 --> 03:23:08,950
So.

1928
03:23:09,610 --> 03:23:10,170
No objective.

1929
03:23:11,070 --> 03:23:11,430
Okay.

1930
03:23:11,950 --> 03:23:21,750
Because I have to tell you on behalf of the Miss Alvarez or Miss

1931
03:23:21,750 --> 03:23:22,530
Couchera summons.

1932
03:23:24,240 --> 03:23:29,320
She's got more breaks than I generally give.

1933
03:23:30,040 --> 03:23:48,360
At this point in time, you know, unless this gentleman here at the end had just said what he did, I was ready to essentially enter the order that I had said I would, which was to go back to the full amount because we're 90 days.

1934
03:23:48,360 --> 03:23:55,040
and so we did get the permit and we did call the inspection in and that's off the process.

1935
03:23:55,280 --> 03:24:07,260
Yeah, but my point is that when we were here three months ago, I am absolutely sure that we talked

1936
03:24:07,260 --> 03:24:14,460
about all the violations and the need to get everything taken care of.

1937
03:24:14,460 --> 03:24:43,700
There were two separate permits issues, look, this gentleman said it will continue it for 30 days, I'm going to do that, but I'm saying right now that it so everyone's very clear that if it's not taken care of and the permits not issued and were resolved, my order here today is that it goes back to the full amount of $23,500.

1938
03:24:43,700 --> 03:24:56,380
$1,500 because we're now 120 days plus 120 days on top of the time period I previously

1939
03:24:56,380 --> 03:24:59,900
entered when I first found the violation which is

1940
03:25:00,910 --> 03:25:25,310
Frankly, except for the very rare instances of the lady who the invalid property owner, where she's, you know, need some financial assistance and everything and she's going through the, I very rarely give the type of relief to a property owner that I've given in this case. That's all I'm saying.

1941
03:25:25,310 --> 03:25:54,270
to that. Watch everybody today. I saw that. So I just want to make it clear that we've got a 30-day window to get that permanent issued or it goes back to the original amount. And I appreciate, you know, and then point is that that point in time, you can, you know, work with staff to then get the fine reduction. I'll certify the amount. It'll happen automatically and no further action will be required.

1942
03:25:54,270 --> 03:25:59,050
I don't believe it's going to be a problem, it's like right now I got something right now from Jeanette Everett

1943
03:25:59,050 --> 03:26:03,870
and she says she should have the review done by next Friday, and then it's just a matter of calling the inspections in and we're out there.

1944
03:26:04,350 --> 03:26:17,170
So in case SP 25 170, address a record 1830 Northwest 32nd Street, owner of record Zulan Alvarez and Gutierrez will grant a 30 day continuous if not completed,

1945
03:26:17,170 --> 03:26:26,750
Then you can actually you can prepare an order for my signature for the full amount and record it you can then work directly with staff

1946
03:26:26,750 --> 03:26:44,970
Yeah, but I was gonna say what if I have an issue with the city not giving me getting the permit. Well then again I look and I'm not I'm not trying to be difficult here and I appreciate it. The point I'm trying to make is that and

1947
03:26:44,970 --> 03:26:49,470
And I'm really not trying to sound harsh, but

1948
03:26:51,680 --> 03:26:56,000
people who come before me with these types

1949
03:26:56,000 --> 03:27:04,320
of violations, it's because one or two things generally here is I didn't know I needed

1950
03:27:04,320 --> 03:27:14,980
a permit or someone told me I didn't need a permit and what I generally will say to people

1951
03:27:14,980 --> 03:27:24,180
is that God bless the Florida legislature, not the city of Oak on Park, even though there are now some new exemptions of the Florida Building Code.

1952
03:27:24,580 --> 03:27:32,320
Florida Building Code basically says that you touch the building and you need a building permit.

1953
03:27:32,800 --> 03:27:37,700
And that should be the assumption of everyone who's thinking about doing something to their house.

1954
03:27:37,700 --> 03:27:44,800
I understand but can I can I sure so this issue is a covered garage she had

1955
03:27:44,800 --> 03:27:49,380
purchased the house this work was done prior to her so this started from

1956
03:27:49,380 --> 03:27:54,240
December and by time that we got around that finds it in crude and that's

1957
03:27:54,240 --> 03:27:59,440
fine that's that is what it is she did not do the work on the garage so I had

1958
03:27:59,440 --> 03:28:03,860
to bring into special engineer had to do a concealed permit to be able to be

1959
03:28:03,860 --> 03:28:07,200
able to say hey we did not similar to yeah so we actually

1960
03:28:07,200 --> 03:28:11,980
actually got the permit, got it all done, called in the first inspection and then the kitchen

1961
03:28:11,980 --> 03:28:14,580
and bathroom are interlocked with that permit.

1962
03:28:15,160 --> 03:28:18,060
So they made us cancel that permit and start the process again.

1963
03:28:18,700 --> 03:28:21,000
So that's why we're in the delay that we're in.

1964
03:28:21,440 --> 03:28:24,260
She did not do the work and it closed like a rush.

1965
03:28:24,720 --> 03:28:30,620
If you have problems with the city's last time show when she either closing from the

1966
03:28:31,160 --> 03:28:34,940
What I'm trying to do is, in a

1967
03:28:36,960 --> 03:28:43,280
roundabout way, it's just move the matter forward so you don't have to come back for me.

1968
03:28:43,400 --> 03:28:51,860
If you have problems with the city on getting within the 30 days, my order will go into effect but that doesn't mean.

1969
03:28:52,220 --> 03:28:56,220
I want to make it absolutely clear that you can't and shouldn't continue to work with the city.

1970
03:28:56,220 --> 03:29:04,940
The only difference is that once you do get the permit, you won't come back before me for a fine reduction.

1971
03:29:05,080 --> 03:29:06,500
You'll work directly with city staff.

1972
03:29:07,260 --> 03:29:15,100
Then I'm going to ask, since this has become a severity, and I think it's totally unfair because of the situation that I just discussed.

1973
03:29:15,480 --> 03:29:16,860
Can we move the 45 days?

1974
03:29:17,180 --> 03:29:19,300
I don't need to make sure I got this permit, no problem.

1975
03:29:19,780 --> 03:29:24,660
I think I'll have it resolved in less, but I have no control over what the building department's going to do.

1976
03:29:27,080 --> 03:29:55,960
Because I believe it's unfair for you to say right now you're going to pay that $23,000 when this you're not listening, I'm not saying that that's the amount of fine that will be there, you can once you come into compliance with the reduction at that point, you're going to you're going to enforce the $23,000 if I have no control over the city and everything's been fair here today, but this one I believe is not fair your you will have the opportunity to deal

1977
03:29:55,960 --> 03:29:59,200
directly with city staff. Once a fine is certified.

1978
03:30:00,660 --> 03:30:28,560
I don't, I, it doesn't come back before me. Okay, that's all I, that's, that's the, that's the purpose of the certification process is you won't have to deal with me anymore. You then would deal directly with city staff. You get the permit. Let's say, if I don't get the permit, then you come back to save now. She's the beginning of force. You have to pay that $23,000. No, you weren't able to get that done in the 30. Well, if, if you don't, let's play this out under your scenario. That was out. Okay.

1979
03:30:28,560 --> 03:30:33,080
If you don't get the permit, then you're going to have to demolish the improvements.

1980
03:30:33,540 --> 03:30:36,520
I can't tell the city to issue a permit to you.

1981
03:30:37,080 --> 03:30:52,400
The issuance of a permit is based upon the determination of the Florida of the city's building official that the work that's being done, and the permits being requested for, complies with the Florida Building Code or not.

1982
03:30:52,400 --> 03:30:59,700
That once you meet the requirements of the Florida building code under Florida law, the city has to issue a permit.

1983
03:31:00,400 --> 03:31:13,660
So the disconnect and the this scenario that we're talking about is if the city doesn't issue me a permit is because the city's building official is making the determination, the what's been submitted still does not meet the permit.

1984
03:31:13,720 --> 03:31:17,400
I'm saying, I'm saying, what if I don't make that 30 days? This is where I'm concerned about.

1985
03:31:17,400 --> 03:31:21,420
Again, if they I know we're going to get the permit because that's I'll give you the 45 days

1986
03:31:21,420 --> 03:31:27,900
My point is that after the 45 days my order becomes final and you will now deal directly with city staff

1987
03:31:27,900 --> 03:31:29,440
And you won't have to come back before me

1988
03:31:29,440 --> 03:31:34,260
But there has to be an ending to the process. I'm getting the closure. I'm getting the closure on this

1989
03:31:34,260 --> 03:31:40,720
I had a closure and they got rejected because like I told you that we had the bathroom and the

1990
03:31:41,400 --> 03:31:46,740
In the kitchen and then somehow those comments got put on to that permit and I have no idea how that happened

1991
03:31:46,740 --> 03:31:48,980
But it's just it and we had to deal with it.

1992
03:31:50,740 --> 03:31:54,420
I'm not trying to kick the can down the road.

1993
03:31:54,680 --> 03:31:56,080
I don't have any control over that.

1994
03:31:56,300 --> 03:32:00,860
I know, I know, but I just want to make sure that I get this process done so she doesn't improve that.

1995
03:32:01,200 --> 03:32:04,640
I want to be able to come back and get it certified so she gets a 10% and we're done.

1996
03:32:06,200 --> 03:32:11,080
You can, I would recommend you work with staff even in the process.

1997
03:32:11,080 --> 03:32:16,660
I think 45 days is a bit more, so I'm going to talk to the tomorrow with the bill in the Department.

1998
03:32:16,900 --> 03:32:16,960
Thank you.

1999
03:32:17,020 --> 03:32:17,200
Okay.

2000
03:32:17,660 --> 03:32:22,520
In case SB 25-170, address record 18-30 north west 32nd Street.

2001
03:32:23,060 --> 03:32:27,920
As I said, the owner record is Julian Alvarez-Gucci-Ebris will give a 45-day

2002
03:32:27,920 --> 03:32:28,560
continuance.

2003
03:32:29,320 --> 03:32:34,720
If it's not brought into compliance within that time frame, as I indicated, my order will be self-excuting.

2004
03:32:34,720 --> 03:32:43,540
And if it's brought within 45 days, come back and again, you don't even need to come back.

2005
03:32:43,660 --> 03:32:49,600
You can ask staff for a reduction of the crude fines directly to them.

2006
03:32:49,720 --> 03:32:53,440
She's willing to pay that if we had the reduction, or I was actually going to ask you, can we pay today?

2007
03:32:53,620 --> 03:32:55,780
But that's fine, obviously I've got to get this completed.

2008
03:32:56,280 --> 03:33:01,260
Well, that's what my previous order did actually read, as I'd given the discount.

2009
03:33:01,640 --> 03:33:03,820
But we're not in compliance with that order.

2010
03:33:03,820 --> 03:33:07,100
I know, but there was a circumstance to suit.

2011
03:33:07,260 --> 03:33:09,980
I know you don't want to hear about the circumstances but there was.

2012
03:33:10,340 --> 03:33:10,860
That's all.

2013
03:33:11,680 --> 03:33:11,860
All right.

2014
03:33:13,440 --> 03:33:15,960
You've got your 45 days best of luck, all right?

2015
03:33:15,960 --> 03:33:16,440
Thank you.

2016
03:33:16,440 --> 03:33:16,780
Thank you very much.

2017
03:33:17,800 --> 03:33:19,880
Appreciate you all sitting around waiting.

2018
03:33:20,340 --> 03:33:22,740
You know, we're still here.

2019
03:33:24,780 --> 03:33:25,740
I'm hurt.

2020
03:33:26,080 --> 03:33:26,220
Yeah.

2021
03:33:32,140 --> 03:33:33,680
Oh yeah, take off.

2022
03:33:39,190 --> 03:33:40,030
Five minute break.

2023
03:33:41,430 --> 03:33:42,050
All right.

2024
03:33:42,050 --> 03:33:44,590
All right, let's take a five minute break.

2025
03:33:44,810 --> 03:33:55,370
The time is close to 4.45, we'll reconvene at 4.50, thank you.

2026
03:34:04,030 --> 03:34:05,930
We'll call the meeting back to order, 4.48.

2027
03:34:06,890 --> 03:34:07,930
Next matter, next case.

2028
03:34:09,070 --> 03:34:17,310
For the record, under no cases, item number 1, SM26143 has been heard.

2029
03:34:17,310 --> 03:34:22,210
Item number two, SM 26144, has been heard.

2030
03:34:22,590 --> 03:34:30,830
Item number three, SM 26145, 4160, Northwest 12th Avenue, Officer Tetskardina.

2031
03:34:31,710 --> 03:34:35,750
Tetskardina, City of Open Park, case SM 26145.

2032
03:34:36,270 --> 03:34:39,170
Property addresses 416, Northwest 12th Avenue.

2033
03:34:39,750 --> 03:34:43,850
Oner of record is Haya Kafari, Kafari, Kafari, Kafari.

2034
03:34:43,850 --> 03:34:48,950
The service was obtained by certified mail posting the property and city hall.

2035
03:34:49,130 --> 03:34:50,950
This case is based on my observation.

2036
03:34:51,510 --> 03:35:00,630
The property was cited for 24.8 I-3 grass parking residential, section 24.65 unlicensed

2037
03:35:02,200 --> 03:35:29,980
13.8, a trash receptacles, and section 8.7, overgrowth. On June 3, 2026, a notice of violation was issued to Haia Kafati for noncompliance with the above mentioned violations of municipal code. Observation summary is while patrolling my assign, I observed multiple vehicles parked on the grass at the property on several occasions over the course of

2038
03:35:29,980 --> 03:35:30,760
several weeks.

2039
03:35:31,260 --> 03:35:35,540
Furthermore, trash receptacles were left on the soil after public works picked up their trash,

2040
03:35:35,900 --> 03:35:39,320
and there are unlicensed vehicles on the property, and the yard is overgrown.

2041
03:35:40,360 --> 03:35:43,280
Again, I initially issued a court courtesy notice,

2042
03:35:43,620 --> 03:35:47,920
advising the residents of the violations and requesting that they take the necessary corrective action.

2043
03:35:48,340 --> 03:35:50,660
Whoever'd to date the violations have not been addressed.

2044
03:35:51,100 --> 03:35:52,580
The city's requesting the following.

2045
03:35:52,820 --> 03:35:57,720
The city's requesting 14 days to comply with violations related to grass parking,

2046
03:35:57,720 --> 03:36:04,120

2047
03:36:04,600 --> 03:36:10,060
If the homeowner fails to comply with the required time frame,

2048
03:36:10,600 --> 03:36:14,780
a fine of $150 per violation shall be imposed.

2049
03:36:15,420 --> 03:36:19,680
I'm submitting his evidence, the case file includes the notice of violation, photographs,

03:36:31,720 --> 03:36:32,600
this is the city's case.

2053
03:37:13,290 --> 03:37:20,850
All right, we're here on case SM26145, address record 4160, northwest 12th Avenue,

2054
03:37:21,090 --> 03:37:27,130

2055
03:37:27,130 --> 03:37:28,070
other than staff?

2056
03:37:28,770 --> 03:37:35,230
Seeing no one, I am going to accept into the record staff report and find that this matter

2057
03:37:35,230 --> 03:37:39,750
is properly before the special magistrate, all notices, have been given.

2058
03:37:43,350 --> 03:37:47,610
Based upon the evidence test money presented here this afternoon, I am going to find that

2059
03:37:47,610 --> 03:37:55,470
the property owner and property are in violation of section 13.8A, trash receptacles, section

2062
03:38:10,950 --> 03:38:18,270

2063
03:38:19,090 --> 03:38:23,070
we're going to give the property under 21 days to come into compliance. If the property

2064
03:38:23,070 --> 03:38:29,170

03:39:10,760 --> 03:39:15,180
This case was opened based on my personal observation on June 26, 2026.

2073
03:39:15,460 --> 03:39:19,420
The property was cited for Section 13.8A trash receptacle.

2074
03:39:19,880 --> 03:39:24,580
To wit trash and recycle receptacles, we're left out curbside for pickup on non-pick-up days.

2075
03:39:25,880 --> 03:39:30,180
This property was presented at the June 2026 special magistrate hearing for

2076
03:39:30,180 --> 03:39:34,160

2080
03:39:46,840 --> 03:39:48,380

2081
03:39:49,000 --> 03:39:55,820
The property continues to violate the city ordinance as evidenced by the June 26, 2026 and

2082
03:39:55,820 --> 03:39:58,700

2086
03:40:35,470 --> 03:40:39,130
All right, we're here in case SM26146R.

2087
03:40:40,210 --> 03:40:43,030
Adjour's record 3415 North East 19th Avenue.

2088
03:40:43,650 --> 03:40:45,650

2089
03:40:46,050 --> 03:40:47,350
Is there anyone in the audience

2090
03:40:47,350 --> 03:40:49,010
speak to this matter other than staff?

2091
03:40:52,180 --> 03:40:55,820
Seeing no one, I am going to accept into the record staff report

2092
03:40:55,820 --> 03:40:57,920
and find that the matter is properly

2093
03:40:57,920 --> 03:40:59,260
before the special magistrate.

2094
03:40:59,260 --> 03:41:01,380
All notices required have been provided.

2095
03:41:02,280 --> 03:41:04,860
And based upon the evidence testimony presented here this afternoon,

2096
03:41:04,860 --> 03:41:08,800
I'm going to find that the property and property on our own violation is section 13.a,

2097
03:41:09,060 --> 03:41:18,820
trash receptacles, city code of open park, that this is a repeat violation and an irreversible violation.

2098
03:41:20,000 --> 03:41:24,380
You know, once they're out there past the deadline, that's the violation.

2099
03:41:24,380 --> 03:41:46,620
I'm going to impose a one-time fine of $750 plus $175 admin fee, and to the extent that you may have any communications with Miss Katzenova, please inform her that if we, if she comes back before me on the same violation, again, it's going to be double and it's only going to go up from there.

2100
03:41:48,520 --> 03:41:54,880
some points you're going to have to pay the fines, so that's that.

2101
03:41:56,690 --> 03:42:06,370
Next is item five, under new cases, SM 26147, 1341, Northeast 40th, Place, Officer Karloch.

2106
03:42:28,160 --> 03:42:32,080
This case was opened based on a complaint received on June 29th, 2026.

2107
03:42:32,800 --> 03:42:38,560
The property was cited for 24.79.1D2 outdoor storage.

2108
03:42:38,940 --> 03:42:43,680
To it, Adali, a tabletop, rope, plastic storage creates trash bags,

2109
03:42:43,980 --> 03:42:47,160
backpacks, carpets, buckets, and wood were being stored in the front yard.

2110
03:42:49,240 --> 03:42:53,540
There was a prior outdoor storage violation of this location on December 8, 2025.

2111
03:42:54,440 --> 03:42:57,620
This violation was issued on June 29, 2026.

2112
03:42:57,840 --> 03:43:01,920
And while posting the notice for the hearing, I met a parent of one of the owners cleaning the yard.

2113
03:43:02,300 --> 03:43:04,140
We discussed the items that needed to be removed.

2114
03:43:04,500 --> 03:43:08,240
I later met with Brian, one of the owners, and we also discussed the violation.

2115
03:43:09,220 --> 03:43:13,620
Brian emailed me to reinspect the property on August 19, 2026.

2116
03:43:13,900 --> 03:43:15,260
I did and it has complied.

2117
03:43:15,260 --> 03:43:21,720
The city is requesting a finding of the fact that the violation did occur so that if it reoccurs, it will be a repeat offender.

2118

03:43:38,600 --> 03:43:38,780

2122
03:43:39,740 --> 03:43:40,180

2124
03:43:52,330 --> 03:44:00,510

2125
03:44:00,510 --> 03:44:01,310

2126
03:44:01,710 --> 03:44:06,490
Seeing no one, I am going to accept into the record of the staff report and find the matters

03:44:06,490 --> 03:44:34,570
is properly before the special magistrate, and make a finding of fact that the property is in compliance with Section 24.7, 9.1, D2, outdoor storage, but came into compliance, passed the deadlines that forth in the notice of violation, and therefore it's a formal finding of fact, so any future violations can be treated as repeat violations, no fine or fee assessed.

2128
03:44:34,570 --> 03:44:35,630

2148
03:47:08,280 --> 03:47:09,900
And the crows go wild.

2149
03:47:10,580 --> 03:47:16,480
Unbelievably, inspect the banner on behalf of the city, presenting case SM-26-1-1-0.

2150
03:47:17,060 --> 03:47:23,100
Property address 1861, northwest 28th Street, owner of records Pierre and Lemowick.

2151
03:47:23,600 --> 03:47:25,860
And the violation is grasped parking.

2152
03:47:26,240 --> 03:47:27,780
The amount per day is $100.

2153
03:47:28,280 --> 03:47:35,300
Compliance stage should have been $6.28 of 26 resolution date, or was actually August 12

2154
03:47:35,300 --> 03:47:36,340
of 2026.

2155
03:47:36,340 --> 03:47:44,820
A non-accruiting amount of 4,500 has been set, and there's no one here for this case.

2156
03:47:47,620 --> 03:47:58,420

2158
03:48:02,160 --> 03:48:05,440
Seeing no one, I am willing to accept into the record the staff report.

2159
03:48:06,540 --> 03:48:15,120
And make a determination that the matter is properly before the special magistrate and in a said case based upon the MS testimony presented here this afternoon.

2160
03:48:15,860 --> 03:48:35,020
Finding that the property is in compliance with the special magistrate's order, finding them to be in violation of Section 24.80, I-313 grass parking residential zoning district, city code of open park, but that said compliance occurred after the date set forth and said order as a result.

2162
03:48:44,140 --> 03:48:54,920
I'm going to certify those amounts and authorize city staff to record an order to that effect in the public records of Broward County, and the same shall constitute a lane against the property.

2163
03:49:02,820 --> 03:49:10,540
