This

C
I
B
C
Now
go
over
the
rules
for
the
code
enforcement
board
hearing
procedure.
It
is
the
intention
of
this
Ford
to
promote,
protect
and
improve
the
health,
safety
and
welfare
of
the
citizens
of
Tarpon
Springs.
By
providing
an
equitable,
effective
and
inexpensive
method
of
enforcing
various
codes
within
the
city
of
tarpon
springs.
Any
aggrieved
party
may
appeal
a
final
administrative
order
of
this
board
to
the
circuit
court.
Such
appeals
shall
be
find
a
filed
within
30
days
of
the
execution
of
the
order
to
be
appealed.
C
Florida
Statute
to
86.0
1:05
requires
any
party
appealing
a
decision
of
this
board
to
have
a
record
of
the
proceedings
to
support
such
an
appeal.
The
procedure
of
this
board
is
as
follows.
First,
the
city
presents
its
witnesses
and
exhibits,
after
which
the
alleged
violator
is
able
to
ask
the
city's
witnesses
any
specific
questions
regarding
their
testimony.
C
Secondly,
the
alleged
violator
is
allowed
to
make
a
presentation
and
present
his
or
her
witnesses
and
exhibits,
and
the
city
can
question
the
alleged
violators
witnesses
after
both
rounds
of
testimony
both
on
the
part
of
the
city
and
on
the
part
of
the
alleged
violator.
Each
party
is
asked
to
give
a
closing
argument
first
by
the
city
and
then
by
the
alleged
violator
after
those
three
steps
are
taken.
This
board
will
close
the
public
hearing
portion
of
the
case
to
discuss
it
and
take
appropriate
action.
C
Before
we
begin
the
public
hearings,
we
will
have
all
potential
witnesses,
stand
up
and
sworn
by
sworn
in
by
the
Secretary
of
the
board
and
again,
please
turn
off
all
cell
phones
to
silence
or
airplane
mode.
If
everyone
that
may
testify
would
please
stand,
raise
your
right
hand,
I'll
have
the
clerk
swear
you
in.

C
J
Sir
no
problem,
sir,
this
case
is
for
57
West
tarpon
Avenue,
it's
in
violation
of
city
building
code,
6-1
is
adopted
and
a
multitude
of
code
and
as
I
was
explaining,
it
initially
started
on
September
15th
of
2016
and,
along
with
the
captain,
Kenny
Fire
Marshal
with
the
city
and
I,
we
performed
numerous
inspections
at
the
property.
We've
had
several
meetings
with
the
owner,
the
owners
engineer
and
contractor
and
going
through
all
the
phases.
As
of
today
at
approximately
11:30
a.m.
they
are
in
compliance
with
all
the
violations.
As
listed.
A

H
H
A
H
A
A
H
C
D
F
H
C
C
Have
a
question:
can
you
you
want
us
to
take
some
action,
even
though
they're
now,
in
compliance
it's
this
particular
property?
Have
a
history
of
problem.
J
C
C
C
C
I
It
is
I'll
move
based
on
the
testimony
evidence,
facts
presented
in
the
law,
that
of
the
attentive
alleged

In
effect,
at
the
time
of
the
notice
of
violations
that
respondents
were
in
violation
of
said,
code
sections.
However,
they
now
are
in
compliance
that.
E
K
I
F
F
F
The
property
into
compliance
within
the
time
prescribed
under
the
notice
you
are
now
in
compliance.
There
is
no
fine
associated
with
it.
However,
should
the
property
become
in
violation
again
within
the
next
five
years
of
these
same
exact
code
sections,
it
will
be
considered
a
repeat
violation
and
you'll,
be
subject
to
a
$500
day,
fine
for
each
particular
violation.
F

The
next
case
on
the
docket
is
17-8:

Is
there
anyone
here?
For
that
case,
alright,
and
so
were
you
here
when,
when
the
clerk
swore
in
the
witnesses,
alright,
sir,
if
you
go
over
here
and
first
step
up
and
give
me
your
name,
please.
C
M
C
M
You
this
is
Kay
17800,
zero,
zero,
zero,
seven,
four
709
South
distant,
my
name's
officer,
gasps
and
I'm,
with
city
of
Tarpon,
Springs
Police,
Department,
code
enforcement
division.
This
is
a
violation
of
city
code,
eight
dash
40,
which
is
a
duty
to
maintain
private
property
on
or
about
February
10th
of
2017
I
conducted
the
initial
inspection
of
the
property.
This
was
based
on
I
conducted
an
inspection
on
the
neighboring
property,
which
was
heard
by
good
board
last
month.
M
This
property
suffered
a
catastrophic
failure
of
the
ground,
aiyoo
sinkhole
in
2011,
and
it's
been
in
2011/2012
somewhere
around
in
that
time,
and
it's
been
in
this
state
that
is
currently
and
since
that
period
of
time
you
can
see
by
the
photos
going
around
exhibit
number
one
or
all
the
photos
that
I
took
related
to
this
case.
The
house,
the
structure
itself
is
basically
okay,
I'm,
not
a
structural
engineer,
but
just
looking
at
it.
M
So
at
that
point
in
time,
the
initial
like
I,
said
the
initial
inspection
with
a
large
sinkhole
I
was
unfortunately
out
of
medical
leave,
On
February
16th,
now
2017
when
officer,
ro,
kiri
inspected
it
and
obviously
nothing
had
been
done
with
it,
and
there
was
no
change
on
March
16th
of
2017.
The
first
Notice
of
Violation
was
issued
for
the
property,
citing
a
violation
8
40.
It
was
sent
the
certified
return
receipt
requested
to
the
owner
and
record
those
owners
were
derived
from
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database
on
March
23rd
2017.
M
M
We
updated
the
contact
info
about
April
4th
after
contact
with
the
family
and
then
on
April
26th
at
Kentucky
dairy
inspection.
There
was
no
change
to
the
property.
At
that
point.
In
time
we
issued
a
notice
of
hearing
to
be
brought
before
Code
board.
I
posted
the
property
on
April
29,
and
yesterday
we
had
a
meeting
with
the
family,
mr.
Crawford's,
a
representative
of
the
family,
in
attempt
to
see
if
we
could
come
to
some
sort
of
a
resolution
at
a
time
they
have
some
fairly
significant
issues.
M
Obviously,
with
this
property
its,
he
can
explain
a
little
bit
more
of
it.
In
some
it
can't,
in
its
current
state,
be
occupied.
The
family
still
owns
the
property,
but
it's
going
to
take
a
significant
amount
of
work
to
bring
it
into
compliance.
The
city's
issue
and
one
of
the
primary
things
is
safety.
It
does
have
a
small
chain-link
fence
around.
It
is
directly
it's
about
a
block
and
a
half
east
of
Tarpon
fundamental
school.
It's
about
maybe
500
feet
from
Dorsett
Park
in
the
cops
and
kids
center.
M
So
obviously
the
city's
position
is
we're
concerned
about
the
safety
of
the
the
property
and
it's
interesting
some
of
the
photos.
If
you
look
at
the
front
of
the
house,
you
really
can't
tell
there's
a
giant
hole
in
the
back
yard
right
from
the
street,
so
we're
obviously
concerned
about
a
kid
or
somebody
getting
in
the
backyard.
So
that,
for
that
reason,
I'm
asking
the
board
to
find
in
violation,
8
40
under
the
dilapidated
house
and
the
property
as
a
safety
or
a
nuisance
issue,
also
for
the
record.
M
I
just
wanted
to
include
exhibit
number
two
where
all
the
notices,
including
the
notice
of
hearing
Notice
of
Violation,
that
are
going
around
their
requests.
All
these
exhibits
be
placed
into
evidence,
exhibit
number
three
are
just
some
miscellaneous
administrative
documents
and
exhibit
number
four.
Is
the
affidavit
of
posting
and
a
copy
of
the
sign
that
was
posted
at
the
property
and
I
have
nothing
further.
At
this
point,.
L
C
C
C
M
Our
discussion,
the
chief
and
I,
met
with
the
Crocker
family
yesterday.
The
city
is
not
in
a
position
to
go
onto
private
property,
but
do
anything
like
that,
so
my
observations
are
based
strictly
on
that
you
know
it's
a
giant
sinkhole
and
we
all
are
fairly
familiar
with
you
usually
can't
I
have
asked
mr.
Crawford
and
I
think
one
of
the
things
we
were
going
to
ask
for
is
to
get
an
engineering
certificate
or
certification.
M
Whether
or
not
the
property
could
be
made
Bible
if
you
will
and
keep
the
structure
and
that's
one
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
pursue
through
the
code
board
process
is
to
get
that
first
step
that
documentation
and
then
potentially
go
from
there.
If
the
engineering
study
says
that
the
structure
can't
be
saved,
then
the
next
step
basically
be
to
demolish
the
property
and
make
it
safe
if
it
can
be
saved,
begin
those
steps
to
fix
problems
so
step.
M
C
L
Thank
you.
We
have
been.
We
have
been
trying
not
even
before
we
received
a
citation
well
actually,
over
a
year
we
have
been
trying
to
to
get
companies
that
work
basically
of
us
estimates
on
repairing
the
property
we
have
the
family.
We
had
decided
it
wasn't
going
to
get
the
house
fixed
because
my
parents
have
already
in
another
home,
so
we're
not
really
looking
at
getting
the
house
fixed,
but
the
repairs
on
the
property.
The
problem
we've
been
having
first
of
all,
is
our
the
financed
modified
is
to
repair
it.
L
Secondly,
is
trying
to
find
a
company
that
would
take
the
job,
I've
called
and
talked
to
probably
close
to
10
to
15
companies.
Data
will
give
estimates
looking
at
from
the
county
from
the
arm.
They
are
the
county
of
technical
whoever's
responsible
for
for
the
odd
for
property.
Appraisers
put
them
pull
up
our
the.
L
Address
look
at
the
home
and
the
what
they
caught
when
they
call
me
back,
they
tell
us.
Yes,
we
will
come
and
give
you
an
estimate
on
what
we
need
to
do
so
I
told
them.
What
that's
you
don't
have?
You
won't
have
a
good
picture
so
come
out
and
look
at
it
because
just
looking
from
the
road
at
the
house,
it
don't
look
too
bad.
L
L
Do
any
repairs,
so
that's
the
problem
I'm
heading
now
trying
to
find
someone
to
even
come
and
and
just
demolish
the
houses.
What
we're
trying
to
do-
and
we
haven't
had
any
luck
at
all
over
that
everyone
saying
the
same
thing:
you
don't
want
any
parts
of
it.
If
it
was
a
regular
sinkhole,
we
come,
we
can
tear
it
down
when
your
equipment
in
there
won't
be
a
problem,
but
none
of
them
out
of
every
one
of
them
that
call
wants
to
are
wants
to
take
the
job.
L
So
once
we
get
the
finances
which
we've
been
working
on,
we
in
the
process
not
trying
to
get
rest
at
find
someone
that
we're
coming
to
monster
home,
we're
not
trying
to
save
the
home.
Only
thing
we're
trying
to
do
is
keep
the
property
because
there's
a
been
in
the
family
for
a
long
time
and
we
want
to
keep
the
property,
but
we
want
to
comply
with
whatever
you
guys
want
us
to
do
also,
but
trying
to
find
contractors
that
someone
that
will
come
and
do
that
job.
L
No
look
at
all
and
I
myself
basically
been
trying
even
be
way
before
the
citation
came
up.
Even
when
it
happened
to
my
parents
house
and
that's
the
problem.
We
have
been
having
that
that
people
say
well,
you
know
it's
too,
it's
too
dangerous
to
you
know:
I,
don't
really
we're
not
going
to
bring
our
equipment
in
here.
You
know.
So.
Therefore
they
tell
us
knowing
I
have
to
keep
going
on.
That's
the
problem.
We
have
it
so
I.
L
L
You
know,
like
I,
said:
if
you
look
at
that
home
from
the
front,
you
wouldn't
think
it's
really
that
bad,
but
when
it
took
half
the
shed
big
washout,
we
had
in
the
back
and
swallowed
it
and
I
took
out
Hansel
you
guys
roll
it
in
the
front
and
the
whole
house.
Nine
splitting
there's
a
four
inch
split
in
the
house
if
you
look
at
it
from
the
side.
So
that's
why
I
said
we're
not
we're
not
even
thinking
about
trying
to
repair
that
home.
L
E
L
L
That's
when
the
whole
fair,
and
at
that
time
that's
when
the
the
shed
was
going
down
also
so
by
the
time
they
got
it
out
their
machine
out.
The
front
part
of
the
house
in
the
road
that
took
sigh
have
took
the
road
out
that
happened.
So
you
know
I
mean
I
can
see
why
they
wouldn't
want
to
bring
the
expensive
equipment
in
there.
But
I,
don't
know
what
else
to
do
I
mean
I
mean
I
can't
go
I
can't
tear
it
down
myself.
E
So
there
some
kind
of
faith
work
that
you
can
assign
the
whole
a
single
company,
armless
I'm,
damaging
my
house,
because
I
know
they
can
pump
from
the
street
concrete
under
that
ball,
because
that's
how
they're
fixing
the
one
another
stop
table.
Mary
I
just
wondered
you're
communicating
well
enough
to
let
them
know
you
don't
need
the
house
if
it
gets
damaged
in
the
process
of
filling
my
home
yeah.
It's
okay,
because
you're
going
to
demolish
it
right.
L
L
C
A
question
for
the
city
and
I'm,
not
sure
officer
of
yours,
if
you're
the
right
person,
but
is
there,
are
there
any
and
I
understand
it's
not
the
city's
job
to
rectify
the
situation,
but
is
there
any
source
of
assistance
in
that?
Is
there
anyone
in
the
city
that
the
pastor
could
contact
that
would
give
them
and
his
family
assistance
in
finding
a
vendor
that
would
possibly
take
care
of
this
problem.
There.
M
Is
but
the
caveat
is
one
the
families
the
family
didn't
want
to
pursue.
We
presented
it
yesterday
we
had
reached
out
to
representative
Sproles
and
he
advised
there
is
a
grant
program
that
may
be
able
to
help,
but
in
turn
it
would
require
the
family
signed
the
property
over
and
they
turn
it
into
green
space.
They
basically
take
care
of
everything,
they'd
fix
the
sinkhole
and
it
more
or
less
kind
of
turn
it
into
a
park.
The
family
didn't
want
to
entertain
that
option.
They
were
also
explained.
M
Ultimately,
what
occurs
with
code
board
and
what
may
happen
as
well
so
we're
kind
of
at
an
impasse.
But
to
answer
your
question,
that
was
one
Avenue
we
explored
that
was
done
in
the
period
of
about
two
days,
just
finding
information,
and
it
was
very
tentative
information,
so
it
sounds
like
there
may
be,
but
it
sounds
like
the
very
real
possibility
is
going
to
involve
signing
that
property
over,
which
is
something
at
this
point
kind
of
part
of
the
reason,
I
think
the
families
at
an
impasse.
Is
they
don't
want
it
that
option?
M
They
don't
want.
So
that's
kind
of
why
we're
here,
because
I
think
they
probably
would
have
solved
the
problem
many
years
ago
if
it
was
as
simple
as
here's
the
property
take
care
of
it
and
I'm
done
so.
I
think
that
that's
my
I
mean
he
could
probably
confirm
that.
But
that's
the
impression
I
got
did.
L
L
My
mom
raised
five
children,
some
owner,
how
many
grandkids
there
at
that
property
and
because
that
house
was
the
first
one
built
on
tobe
acres
in
our
early
sixties
and
for
sentimental
values
we
like
to
keep
the
property
to
have
it
in
the
families,
because
every
year,
that's
where
we
have
our
reunions
at
and
we
come
together
as
a
family.
We're
never
going
to
build
on
that
property
anymore.
L
We
don't
want
to
level
be
building
on
the
property,
but
we
just
want
to
keep
the
this
or
that
if
we
did
have
outings
in
the
family
that
we
have
a
place
that
everyone
can
come
just
puttin
up
the
door.
We
count
canopies
in
the
point
of
a
canopies
up
and
do
what
we
need
to
do
but
keep
the
property
in
the
family
and
that's
basically
what
we
are
where
we
are
hoping
to
have
to
do.
L
C
How
much
time
would
it
would
you
need
to
to
possibly
rectify
this
situation?
You've
indicated
that
that
no
one
seems
to
even
want
to
come
out
and
take
a
good
look
at
it,
and
no
one
who
has
looked
at
it
wants
to
do
anything
about
it.
So
I
guess
Brennan
we're
at
a
situation
when
we,
unless
you
have
some
prospects
as
to
somebody
that's
going
to
take
care
of
it.
Well,.
L
Now,
while
we
are
with
we're
working
on
that
and
we
have
all
a
cup
a
couple
of
companies
and
people
that
we
check
with,
are
that's
working
on,
possibly
maybe
helping
us
helping
us
to
get
what
we
need
to
do,
the
repairs
on
it
at
least
at
least
another.
You
know,
I
mean
six
months
and
I
think
if
we
can,
if
you
all,
can
give
us
at
least
another
six
months,
I
think
maybe
something
we
can
do
to
try
to.
L
You
know
get
back
into
compliance
for
you
because,
like
I
said,
the
main
thing
is
the
weaken.
Once
we
find
someone
to
demolish
the
home
and
tear
it
down,
that'll
be
basically
half
of
our
problem,
really
getting
it
squared
away,
but
I
think
if
we,
if
it's
possible,
you
guys
can
give
us
because
ninety
days
I,
don't
you
know
I
really
and
only
I
can
see.
Even
with
the
six
six
months.
L
N
That's
the
Crawford,
have
you
tried
to
negotiate
with
Ram
Jack.
L
No
I
never
did
check
I
never
did
negotiate
with
them.
I
know
that
that
company
does
do.
We
do
repairs
on
a
sinkhole
property
damage
property,
but
I
didn't
know
they.
They
were
demolish
homes.
I
thought
I
was
told
that
there's
a
different
elevation.
N
Yeah
I
don't
know
if
they
demolished
I
know
that
they've
done
a
lot
of
work
at
to
my
Araya,
we've
been
out
of
the
turkey
year.
What.
L
L
Yeah
I've
never
really
reached
out
to
them
with
the
prior
to
this
damage
being
done.
I
do
have
a
regular
engineering
report
that
explained
everything
that
need
to
be
done
to
the
property,
but
that's
in
case
we
want
to
get
it
repaired
and
moving
back
into
the
property
see
it's
step
by
steps
on
what
it
you
know,
what
what
needs
to
be
done
like
over
seventy
grand
to
do
that,
but
no
I
know
it
I
never
checked
with
them.
Yet
the.
O
L
O
C
E
F
I
I
M
Discussion
and
through
the
city's
discussions
we
we
initially
were
unwilling
to
go
six
months.
Obviously
we'll
leave
that
with
the
board,
but
we're
requesting
90
days.
I
completely
understand
the
the
fact
that
family's
been
dealing
with
this
for
five
years,
but
since
it's
now
been
brought
into
a
position
where
the
board's
aware
of
the
safety
issue,
the
city's
aware
the
safety
issue
time
starts
to
become
a
bit
sensitive
in
the
city.
M
D
E
O
E
I
I
would
like
to
say
that
I
wouldn't
have
given
this
much
time
except
because
officer
Gaston
said
he
thought
it
would
be
okay
to
do
that,
because
it's
been
going
on
for
five
years
and
I
think
that
money
has
a
whole
lot
to
do
with
this.
Some
sinkhole
company
would
come
in
there
and
fill
that
hole
and
I.
E
C
Make
the
comment
that
that
my
primary
concern
is
that
there
is
a
potential
danger
with
this
signal.
It's
an
unfortunate
situation,
but
there
is,
as
a
board,
I
think
we
have
a
responsibility
to
the
city
as
a
whole,
and
sometimes
we
have
to
make
decisions
that
we
have
to
take
the
entire
city
and
it
at
the
safety
of
all
of
its
citizens
thing
to
affect,
even
though
it
might
be
a
burden
on
on
individual
systems.
So
that's
the
only
comment.
I
would
make
we're
ready.
We
get
a
vote
on
this
boat.
Mr.
D
O
E
E
B
F
F
Pastor,
in
summary,
what
has
happened
today
is
the
code
enforcement
board
has
found
a
violation,
section,
8,
40
of
the
code.
Your
parents
have
until
July
19
2017
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance.
Should
they
fail
to
bring
it
into
compliance
by
that
date,
a
$25
a
day.
Fine
will
be
assessed
until
it
is
brought
into
compliance.
Once
you've
got
to
be
up
to
the
point
that
the
party
is
in
compliance.
You
can
contact
the
code
enforcement
officer,
he'll
go
out
and
he'll
inspect
the
property,
and
it
will
give
you
that
affidavit
of
compliance.
C
M
You
Dori
case
number:
seventeen
eight
zero,
zero,
zero,
zero,
zero,
eight
zero.
The
address
is
one
one:
four,
seven
to
code
properties
owned
by
JP,
Morgan,
Chase,
Bank,
National
Association,
with
the
registered
agent
obscene
corporation
systems.
This
is
a
violation
of
city
ordinance.
Eight
dash
forty
duty
maintained
private
property.
M
The
case
started
this
particular
case
started
February
14th
of
this
year
from
basically
a
neighbor
complained
properties
in
very
poor
condition.
Its
bacon,
the
door
on
the
west
side
was
kicked
in
some
other
issues
with
the
structure
and
the
the
property
itself.
I
conducted
an
inspection
on
the
property
and
I
found
that
there
were
some
tree
issues,
not
providing
14
feet
of
clearance
over
the
roadway,
but
the
structure
itself
is
in
very,
very
poor
condition.
M
As
I
stated,
the
western
door
was
kicked
open
and
apparently
to
become
a
haven
for
people
to
hang
out
and
various
illegal
acts.
So
with
that
being
said,
I'd
the
time
I
entered
the
property
because
the
door
was
open
and
still
being
a
police
officer.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
there
was
nobody,
trespassing
inside
factor
inside
the
structure,
there's
a
giant
gaping
hole
in
the
roof
over
one
of
the
rooms.
Large
portions
of
the
floor
missing
generally,
the
the
structure
is
just
in
very
poor
condition.
The
outside,
as
I
stated,
had
some
issues
as
well.
M
On
that
date,
we
assured
a
Notice
of
Violation
was
sent
to
the
sent
via
first-class
via
certified
return,
receipt
requested
to
the
property
owner
and
registered
agent
listed
that
were
derived
from
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database.
On
February
23rd
of
this
year
we
sent
an
additional
Notice
of
Violation
to
JPMorgan
Chase
I'm.
Sorry,
we
got
back
the
the
letter
to
JPMorgan
Chase
unopened,
not
deliverable
as
addressed.
Did
some
research
and
attempted
to
get
another
letter
out
to
them
and
I
believe
on
February
28th.
That
was
done
with
a
new
address.
M
April
8th
because
we
had
had
some
discussion
with
representative
of
the
company
that
they
were
working
on
trying
to
give
bids
and
things
like
that.
Some
of
the
outside
of
the
property
has
been
cleaned
up
a
little
bit,
but
we
still
have
a
continuing
problem
with
the
door
being
secured
and
then
the
as
you
can
see
in
the
pictures,
the
the
holes
and
sealing
the
holes
in
the
floor.
M
Just
the
general
poor
condition
of
the
property
I
had
initially
started
to
go
down
a
path
of
requesting
the
city,
possibly
look
at
it
from
the
building
inspector
side
for
demolition
of
the
property.
We
at
this
point
in
time
kind
of
backed
away
from
that
brought
it
back
over
into
the
owners
position
to
bring
the
case
before
code
board
for
a
couple
issues
that
I'll
discuss
during
a
minute.
Continuing
on
April
17th,
a
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
first-class
and
received
on
April
20th,
an
email
from
amber
stone
as
a
representative
of
JPMorgan
Chase.
M
M
I
conducted,
my
final
inspection
on
May
10th
and
it's
still
not
in
compliance
and
basically
what
the
city
is
asking
for
is
the
violation
of
8
4
D,
which
is
the
nuisance
ordinance
for
the
the
very
poor
condition
of
the
structure
itself
and
the
property
and
then
at
some
point
asking
the
owners
to
either
demolish
it
or
continue
with
the
remodel
which
council
and
I
have
talked
briefly
about
that.
And
apparently
there
is
a
plan
in
place
that
they
have
in
motion
they're
just
dealing
with
getting
bids
and
some
other
things
like
that.
M
M
We
don't
he
I've
met
with
some
folks
out
on
the
property
and
Council
has
they've
obtained
a
lot
of
their
certificates
and
preliminary
stuff
I
think
it's
just
locking
down
bid
process
and
we
discuss
60
days
which,
from
the
city
standpoint,
the
only
thing
I
asked
for
them
is
that
they
can
get
out
and
secure
it,
which
will
be
able
to
take
care
of
today.
I'll
email
them
again
and
they've
been
pretty
respondent
about
trying
to
keep
it
secured.
It's
just
people
kick
it
in,
and
you
know
so.
P
C
P
Quite
all
right,
Emma
being
is
not
particularly
using
it.
So
I
would
just
ask
that
the
city
would
consider
the
officers
recommendation.
My
clients
have
been
more
responsive
than
they
have
been
in.
The
past
certainly
were
unaware
of
the
immediacy
of
the
of
the
nuisance,
especially
with
the
door
I
plan
on
communicating
that
to
my
client,
following
this
hearing
will
make
sure
that
they
have
a
rotating
vendor,
come
out
there
to
check
it
periodically,
to
make
sure
that
you
know
it
doesn't
get
broken,
and
if
it
is
broken
that
will
you.
P
That
they
have
obtained
Engineering
reports
pulled
certificates.
It
is,
to
my
knowledge,
their
intent
to
rehabilitate
the
property
at
this
time
that
may
change
down
the
road,
but
I
do
think
that
once
the
report
has
been
generated
and
a
vendor
has
been
selected,
sometimes
it
requires
them
obtaining
multiple
bids
from
multiple
vendors.
It's
just
you
know
time,
but
once
that
gets
nailed
down,
it's
a
relatively
quick
assess
to
rehabilitate
the
property,
so
I'm,
confident.
C
P
M
The
2014
case
had
been
paid
and
the
2016
case
is
not
collecting
Daly's,
but
it
does
have
a
standing
fine.
So
it
was
previously.
The
property
had
been
in
violation
previously
and
it
had
occurred.
Fines
and
a
JPMorgan
Chase
is
aware
of
those
fines
existing
as
well
and
I'd
have
to
confirm,
with
the
clerk
I
think
there
may
may
be
a
lien
on
the
property,
but
I'm
not
sure
about
I.
I
K
I
M
I
I
moved
with
a
response:
she'll
have
until
June
the
11th
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance
with
not
June
July
11th.
Excuse
me,
this
is
name,
is
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance
with
code
sections,
8
40
or
so
for
$100
per
day
fine.
For
each
day.
Thereafter,
the
respondent
remains
in
violation
of
code
Code
section
any.
K
I
F
Knight,
in
summary,
then,
the
property
owner
has
been
found
to
violate
to
section
8,
does
40
of
the
city's
code
property
owners
until
July
11
2017
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance
where
the
property
owner
will
suffer
$100
a
day
fine
once
the
properties
and
compliance
your
client
or
you
can
call
officer
gas
on
it,
he'll
go
out
and
inspect
the
to
give
you
that
affidavit
of
compliance
will
be
considered
by
the
board
at
the
next
meeting
following
the
compliance
date.
They're
good
any
question,
sir.
P
P
C
C
G
G
G
M
That
I
think
in
in
relation
to
this
case
exhibit
number
two
were
all
the
notices,
including
the
Notice
of
Violation
and
amended
Notice
of
Violation
and
a
notice
of
hearing
and
certified
return.
Receipts
exhibit
number
three
or
any
miscellaneous
administrative
Docs,
the
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors,
records
and
emails
correspondence
between
the
city
and
anybody
related
to
the
property
and
finally,
exhibit
number
four.
Is
the
affidavit
of
posting
and
copy
of
the
signs?
And
mr.
Chairman
I
request
that
those
four
exhibits
be
placed
into
evidence
for
the
record.
C
C
M
Mr.
chairman,
on
February
22nd
industry
conducted
the
initial
inspection
of
the
property
it
stemmed
from
dealing
with
the
property-
that's
directly
north
of
it,
at
a
violation
on
that
property.
Where
was
overgrown,
that
property
was
cleaned
up
and
then
simultaneously
because
of
the
clean
of
this
property
became
visible.
A
large
number
of
the
photographs
that
were
passed
around
are
taken
from
the
north
of
the
property
and
you'll
see
kind
of
a
vacant
lot
in
between
there.
That
was
the
vacant
lot.
That
was
a
previous
case
that
made
this
property
visible.
M
At
that
time,
I
noticed
numerous
violations
that
the
boat
that's
acting
kind
of
along
the
property
line,
Finch
dents
like
ish
as
a
blockade,
large
amount
of
trash
and
debris.
The
definition
of
debris
under
8:52,
which
is
actually
under
a
different
part
of
the
city
code
debris
is,
is
very
broad.
In
the
sense
it
talked
about
old
unused
equipment.
It
even
specifically
mentions
boats
that
aren't
being
used.
It
mentions
trailers.
M
It
mentions
a
myriad
of
things
that
are
on
the
property
that
just
are
left
there
in
the
case
of
438
Riverside,
there's
also
a
large
tarp,
that's
extending
over
the
rear
of
the
property,
almost
acting
as
if
a
structure
or
covering
up
a
large
amount
of
debris,
I
don't
want
to
necessarily
insult
anybody,
call
it
trash,
but
things
that
are
there.
That
probably
shouldn't
be
there
for
lack
of
a
better
definition,
as
I
stated
before,
the
fence
is
also
in
very
poor
condition.
M
It's
missing
in
some
places
being
supported
by
States,
initially,
I
sent
the
violation
out
and
I
did
do
an
amended
violation
and
the
reason
why
it
was
specifically
to
include
the
fact
that
extensions
were
on
the
fence
that
took
its
height
over
six
feet,
which
is
a
violation
of
city
code.
One
thing
that
should
be
established
about
this
property
is:
it
is
in
a
residential
zone,
although
some
of
the
activities
that
are
occurring
there
would
be
allowed
in
a
commercial
area.
M
This
is
a
residential
area,
so
storage
with
all
the
boats
and
all
those
kind
of
things
is
where
part
of
the
issue
comes
in
continuing
on.
As
I
stated,
there's
a
definition
of
debris
in
here
and
you
could
certainly
read
through
different
one,
but
it
covers
a
myriad
of
items
which
seem
to
be
on
the
property
there.
On
February
22nd,
a
Notice
of
Violation
was
mailed
first
class
and
return
receipt
requested,
the
owner
record
and
a
tenant.
M
The
owner
of
record
was
derived
from
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database,
and
then,
as
I
stated,
we
we've
had.
We've
had
prior
cases
with
mr.
Lewis,
so
we
knew
he
was
a
tenant
property,
sent
him
a
notice
violation
as
well.
The
certified
letter
was
signed
by
John
Merritt,
February
22nd
and
that
was
received.
I
conducted
a
Rhian
spectrin
on
March
15th
that
was
actually
conducted
by
officer
bird
because
again,
I
was
out
for
a
medical
issue
and
there
was
the.
M
And
there
was
still
basically
not
in
compliance,
bat,
nine
on
April
12th
I
conducted
a
rien
spectrin.
It
was
a
lot
of
complaints
and
that
point
was
when
I
issued
the
Notice
of
Violation
amended,
adding
the
addition
to
the
six-foot
fence
sections
there.
It
was
mailed
first
class
return,
request
again
to
the
owner
and
the
tenant
occupant.
We
returned
return,
certified
receipt
signed
by
John
or
Stella
Merritt
out
of
Tampa,
and
then
I
conducted
another
Rhian
spectrin
on
April
26,
and
it
there
appeared
to
be
no
changes,
still
wasn't
in
compliance
ID.
M
There
may
have
been
things
going
on,
but
I
couldn't
see
him.
A
notice
of
hearing
was
issued
male
first
class
return,
receipt
requested
to
the
owner
and
tenants
on
April
26,
and
we
received
an
email
from
mr.
Lewis
requesting
extension
on
around
April
28th
he's
respectfully
requesting
an
extension
and
I
have
a
feeling
that
part
of
the
reason
why
he's
here
is
probably
to
ask
for
an
extension
but
I
get
in
that
he
advised
to
be
an
email
that
he's
been
in
steadily
working
on.
The
property
should
be
noted.
M
It's
been
that
way
for
quite
a
while.
I
just
discovered
it
that
backside
I
could
never
see
it
prior
to
that,
but
property's
been
basically
been
in
that
state
for
I've
been
in
this
position
for
about
two
years,
so
it's
probably
roughly
about
two
years.
It's
been
up
in
that
state,
but
it
was
never
brought
to
the
forefront
because
of
the
property
to
the
north
of
it.
I
posted
the
property
on
April
29th
of
this
year
and
on
April
2nd.
M
G
C
F
C
M
C
G
G
Mr.
Trask
and
I
understand
the
implication:
if
I
may,
mr.
chairman
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
all
parties,
mr.
Lewis
is
pointing
to
mine.
For
many
years
he's
been
living
in
the
property
for
approximately
10
years.
All
the
stuff
inside
the
fence
is
an
amalgam
of
things,
he's
been
collecting
and
trying
to
make
his
life
better
for
that
period
of
time,
as
officer
Gaston
stated,
and
we
had
no
objection
anything,
he
said
that
the
particular
event
happened
on
February
22nd,
the
tree
coming
down.
It's
exposed.
G
Everything
I
would
tell
you
that
since
that
time,
even
though
the
exterior
still
looks
the
same,
mr.
Lewis
has
been
attempting
to
remove
these
starting
to
remove
these
things.
There's,
like
I,
said
it's
an
amalgam
of
actually
ten
years
worth
of
stuff.
He
is
on
complete
disability.
He
does
understand
the
the
issue
of
the
esthetics
of
the
fence
and
the
safety
of
the
fence
regarding
the
six
feet
of
height
and
the
stakes
that
are
utilized
there.
He
understands
that's
going
to
be
a
priority.
He
just
needs
more
time.
G
C
C
C
I
J
I
C
M
The
board,
as
I
stated
I,
have
no
objection
to
90
days.
I
think
that's
a
reasonable
period
of
time
does
the
board.
Mr.
Lewis
and
the
city
you've
had
a
long-standing
relationship
for
a
few
years
with
some
violations
previously.
So
for
that
reason,
just
because
of
the
prior
issues,
I
would
I
would
ask
the
board
consider
$150
a
day
fine
after
that
$150.
I
C
O
A
O
C
I
would
just
suggest
that
the
$150
is
a
bit
of
a
stiff
fine,
but
based
on
the
testimony
of
officer
Dyson
that
there
has
been
a
lot
of
interaction
with
the
people
involved.
In
this
case
you
know
yesterday
I
think
it's
inappropriate,
although
it's
somewhat
high
for
what
we
normally
use,
but
I
think
that
the
city
has
presented
its
position
and
so
forth.
That
there's
no
other
comments,
we'll
ask
for
a
roll
call
vote
on
the
motion.
C
I
C
F
Crow,
the
your
client
has
been
clients
have
been
found
in
violation
of
sections,
8,
22,
8
s,
52
and
30
6.03,
and
given
until
August
17
2017
to
come
into
compliance.
Should
they
fail
to
come
into
compliance
by
that
date,
150
dollar
per
day
fine
will
be
instituted
once
the
property
is
brought
into
compliance.
You
can
have
your
client
contact.
Mr.
Gaston
and
he'll
come
inspect
the
property
to
give
you
that
affidavit
of
compliance
easier.
Thank
you.
C
C
Is
a
difference
is
322
to
322,
sir
okay.
So
that's
not
your
address
right,
yeah,
okay,
this
case
that
we're
going
to
do
now
is
so
that
there's
no
misunderstanding
is
322
East,
Lime,
Street,
the
estate
of
Ruby
Brooks
and
apparently
there's
no
one
here
for
that
for
this

officer,
right
Dyson.
If
you
are
ready
to
present
big.

should
be
noted,
though,
that
the

been
taken

of
so
I'm
not
going
to
be
proceeding
with
any
other
issues
with
the
banded

So.
M
Sir,
that
is
alright
going
around
for
the

or
for

exhibit

or
all
the

including
the
case
history,
property
appraiser
and
tax

records
and
exhibit

Is
the
a
potato
posting
affidavit
of
posting
a
copy
of
the
sign
posted
March
11th
of
this
year.
I
conducted
an
initial
inspection
again.
This
one
was
based
on
complaint
on
a
neighboring
property
and
I
discovered
violations
with
this
property.
M
Initially
there
was
a
some
vehicles
on
the
property
and
a
large
amount
of
trash.
As
I
stated,
the
vehicles
have
been
taken
care
of,
but
there
is
a
large
amount
of
trash
and
debris
on
the
property
both
inside
and
outside
the
fenced-in
area,
observe
tires
yard,
debris
and
other
items
its
property.
As
you
can
see,
depicted
in
the
photographs
on
March
15th
of
this
year,
the
Notice
of
Violation
was
male
first
class
return,
receipt
requested
to
the
listed
property
owners
derived
from
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
Pinellas
County
tax
collectors
database
conducted
re-inspection
I'm.
M
Sorry
we
did
receive
a
phone
call
on
March
21st
here
from
a
Rochelle
on
behalf
of
the
deceased
own
homeowner.
They
advised
the
Ruby
brutes
had
passed
away,
I
found
out
later
it
was
about.
A
year
ago,
Ruby
Burke
had
passed
away
in
the
house
was
in
foreclosure
and
the
family
has
until
May
first
to
vacate
that
hadn't
come
to
fruition
as
I
I'll
jump
ahead
a
little
bit
I
conduct
the
inspection.
Yesterday,
family
still
appears
to
be
living
there.
M
So
moving
forward
on
April
6th
of
this
year,
I
conducted
a
reinfection
I
spoke
to
the
property
owners
nephew
out
front
and
I
gave
him
a
little
bit
extra
time
until
April
22nd
to
move
those
vehicles
and
take
care
of
the
property
on
April
17th.
We
did
did
a
return
document
return
to
sender
unclaimed
unable
to
forward
and
then,
as
I
stated,
I
conducted,
another
inspection
on
April
22nd
and
basically
at
that
time
there
was
no
change
on
April
24th
2017.
The
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
first
class
return,
receipt
and
I
posted
the
property.
M
April
29th
I
did
conduct
another
inspection
May
10th
of
this
year
and,
as
I
stated,
the
vehicle
issue
was
taken
care
of,
but
there
still
seems
to
be
a
fair
amount
of
trash
and
debris
on
the
property
that
needs
to
be
pulled
up.
At
this
point,
I'm
asking
the
board
to
find
the
property
in
violation
of
city
code,
822
and
I
have
nothing
further.
C
B
E
D
D
C
M
E
I
I
C
K
E
E
C
Alright,
that
brings
us
to
our
next
case.
We
don't
really
have
to
pull
agenda.
The
next
case
is
to
be
established.

For
this
particular

up
there,

you
may
proceed
with
your
thank-you.

Sixty

I
bring
this
case
before
he
is
currently
in

and
I
requested
it
be
established
for
violation
of
city
code.
Eight
dash
48-52
in
57.00,
which
deals
with
the
outdoor
storage
of
commercial
goods
or
property,
exhibit
number
one
going
around.
The
initial
photos
of
the
inspection
in
the
signposting
exhibit
number
two
are
all
the
notices,
including
the
Notice
of
Violation,
and
the
notice
of
hearing
and
certified
return
mail
return.
M
Receipt
exhibit
number
three
administrative
documents,
including
a
case
history,
email,
property,
appraiser
and
tax
collector
records
and
exhibit
number
four.
Is
the
affidavit
of
posting
a
copy
of
the
sign
on
April
5th
of
this
year,
I
conduct
an
initial
inspection.
I
had
previously
been
out
to
this
property
and
warned
them
about
this
exact.
Same
violation
and
I
noticed
that
the
pallets
there
was
a
large
number
of
pallets
stacked
out
at
the
front
of
the
driveway
and
also
slightly
behind
the
fence.
I
think
those
are
depicted
in
the
first
picture.
M
At
that
point
in
time,
I
in
April
5th,
there
was
a
violation
and
a
notice
of
hearing,
because
my
intent
was
to
bring
them
before
the
board.
The
Notice
of
Violation
green
card
and
certified
return
receive
was
returned
to
the
code
office
signed
by
Carlos
Pena
on
April
17th
of
the
of
2017
on
April
18th
of
2017.
M
I
posted
the
property
on
April,
29
and
I
conducted
a
final
inspection
yesterday
on
May
10th
and
found
the
property
was
in
compliance
and
just
for
the
record,
it
should
be
noted
that
all
the
notices
were
mailed
to
the
property
owner
of
record
is
determined
by
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database.
And
mr.
chairman,
if
you
wouldn't
mind
entering
my
for
exhibits
into
evidence
for
the
record,
please,
okay,.
C
Again,
I
asked
the
clerk,
as
those
items
are
passed
down
to,
please
enter
them
into
the
record
as
they
would
does.
Anyone
have
any
questions
for
the
officer.
I
have
a
question
mr.
Pena,
or
anyone
that
you
might
have
had
contact
with
at
this
property.
Give
any
explanation
as
to
why
this
accumulation
of
talent,
the.
M
Only
thing
tell
you
is
the
first
case
that
I
had
on
him:
I
made
contact
with
the
residents
and
they
advised
one
of
their
roommates
make
stuff
out
of
them.
I
mean
that
was
the
extent
of
the
conversation
and
nobody's
ever
had
any
other
contact
with
me.
I
did
pursue
looking
in
son
biz
and
to
see,
if
maybe
there
was
a
business
using
that
address
and
I
could
find
nothing
related
to
that.
So,
to
answer
your
question,
no
I
don't
have
an
explanation
to
either
there
okay.
C
M
And
just
so,
the
board
knows
that
the
complaint
I
had
the
first
time.
Not
this
particular
one
was
generated
by
a
neighbor
and
then
I
just
happened
to
be
down
on
that
Street
sunrise
drives
a
dead
end,
it's
called
the
sac
so
where
they're
at
is
at
the
end
of
the
call,
this
I
can
happen
to
turn
around
and
went
Wow
all
the
pallets
are
back.
So
that's
what
scam
to
this
complaint.
C
E
Can
we
take
this
opportunity?
We
have
new
members
down
there
that
I
don't
have
an
idea
what's
going
on
here.
The
second
page
in
here
that
we're
going
to
establish
Tom.
Could
you
kind
of
explain
to
them
what
that
four
sure?
Thank
you
in.
F
Your
red,
folder
you'll
see
a
number
of
different
form
motions
or
for
different
things
that
are
happening
as
you,
as,
as
you
board,
members
are
reviewing
these
cases.
Some
of
these
other
board
members
have
been
here
for
a
long
period
of
time,
that's
just
kind
of
a
matter
of
ease
with
them,
but
when
the
code
enforcement
officer
is
looking
for
a
case
to
be
established,
what
he's
basically
saying
to
you
is
that
the
issue
to
notice
a
violation
in
that
Notice
of
Violation.
He
gave
the
alleged
violator
a
period
of
time
to
come
into
compliance.
F
Well,
it's
he'll
testify
as
to
whether
it's
a
proactive
complaint
now
the
receipt
just
saw
it
or
somebody
complained.
But
the
point
that
I
was
going
to
try
to
make
here
is:
is
that
once
once,
he
goes
out
and
inspects
the
property
issues
that
Notice
of
Violation
property
owner
does
not
bring
the
property
into
compliance
by
the
time
that's
listed
in
the
letter,
however,
brings
it
into
compliance
sometime
before
the
hearing.
F
He
still
is
bringing
the
case
forward,
even
though
it's
in
compliance
so
and
I'm
just
going
to
read
one
sentence
from
Florida
statute:
160
2.06
paren.
This
is
what
the
officer
is
doing
if
the
violation
is
corrected
and
then
reoccurs
or
if
the
violation
is
not
corrected
by
the
time
specified
for
the
correction
by
the
code
inspector.
The
case
may
be
presented
to
the
code
enforcement
board,
even
if
the
violation
has
been
corrected
prior
to
the
board
or
a
board
hearing,
I'm,
sorry
and
then
notice.
She
also
state
and
the
notices
do
state
that.
F
So
here
this
case
that
you're
hearing
right
now.
This
is
the
second
one
today,
I
guess
that's
what
the
officer
is
asking
you
to
do
find
that
the
property
is
in
compliance
now,
but
it
wasn't
within
the
time
period
prescribed
and
if
the
officer
believes
that
the
case
will
never
come
back
to
you
again,
he
won't
be
asking
for
it,
but
because
of
some
history,
he's
determined
that
he
believes
that
it's
going
to
happen
again,
and
so
he
wants
that
latitude
to
bring
the
case
again
at
a
higher
fine
one.
Is
that
dangle.

The
rear
of
the
house
is
missing
a
roof
most
of
the
doors
and
windows
have
since
been
torn
off
of
the
structure
and,
as
I
stated,
there's
fire
damage
inside
of
it
on
April
7th
of
this
year,
notice
of
violation
and
Notice
of
Hearing
were
mailed
first
class
with
a
return
receipt
requested
on
April
13th
and
a
few
other
dates.
After
that,
we've
had
office
visits
from
Miss
cavities
regarding
the
property
in
discussion
about
needing
and
extensions
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
M
One
of
the
very
first
things
I,
discussed
and
requested
from
her
is
an
engineering
study
to
see
if
the
structure
could
either
be
rehabbed
and
brought
back
or
if
it
had
to
be
destroyed.
Based
on
that
engineering
survey,
she
visited
the
office
I.
Think
that's
for
the
day
before
still
doesn't
have
the
engineering
survey
and
I'm
hedging
my
bets
that
the
gentleman
is
here
to
be
the
engineering
survey.
M
I
think
so
that
was
my
first
step
was
to
attempt
to
get
that
and
then
determine
where
we
go
with
the
property,
destroy
to
rebuild
it
and
then
have
that
done
within
a
certain
period
of
time.
I
conducted
as
I
stated
had
another
meeting
with
Miss
kavik
leaves
on
May,
9th
and
then
I
conducted
the
final
inspection,
May
10
and
all
of
my
notices
were
derived
from
the
palace
county,
property,
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database
and,
as
you
can
see
in
some
of
the
pictures,
especially
the
very
first
picture
that
went
around.
M
There's
they've
since
installed
large
six-foot
privacy
fence
completely
around
the
structure
front
and
back
all
the
windows
were
boarded
up
and
to
the
best
I
could
tell
the
doors
as
well
were
boarded
up,
so
it
appears
to
be
fairly
secure,
with
the
exception
of
the
roof.
Now
an
interesting
caveat
to
this,
because
I
just
can't
bring
boring
cases
before
the
board.
Mr.
M
Crowe,
who
was
just
here,
had
successfully
got
an
order,
a
final
order
judgment
against
the
property
she
presented
that
order
and
I
don't
know
if
I
have
it
with,
but
basically
gives
a
judge's
order
that
within
200
days
and
I,
don't
have
the
exact
date
that
that
property
is
to
be
securely
boarded
up
and,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
they
did.
The
final
judgment
is
one
of
the
exhibits.
He
stated.
M
The
defendants
hereby
ordered
to
fully
fence
all
sides
of
the
subject:
property
with
a
six-foot
fence
permanently
and
completely
board
all
windows,
doors,
holes
and
roof
at
the
subject
property
so
as
to
make
it
impenetrable
by
any
other
persons
within
200
days
and
on
April
17th.
It
was
signed
by
Judge
Thomas,
McGrady,
Circuit,
Court,
Judge,
Pinellas
County.
So
there's
been
some
other
action
with
this,
which
is
basically
along
lines
with
seas.
Asking
for
one
of
the
issues
the
city
has,
though,
as
part
of
that
ordinance
says,
you
can't
board
up
a
structure.
M
R
D
C
Right,
there's
do
any
of
the
board
members
have
any
questions
for
the
office
I.
E
M
Step
one
would
be
getting
the
engineering
survey
because
of
the
engineering
survey
says
the
house
can
be
rehabilitated,
then
the
city's
position
would
be
to
rebuild
the
house
and
get
a
certificate
of
occupancy
issued
for
it
and
make
it
a
viable
structure.
If
the
engineering
survey
comes
back
and
says
the
house
not
viable
and
needs
to
be
destroyed,
then
the
city's
position
was.
We
would
want
the
property
owner
demolished
property
so
that
there's
two
choices
step.
O
M
Interesting
thing
was,
as
I
went
by
and
inspected
the
property
shortly
after
the
fence
was
installed
and
part
of
the
back
was
already
peeled
off.
I
made
miss
kavik
Lee's,
aware
that
in
the
office
when
she
visited
me
I
don't
know
I
honestly
haven't
been
back
there
again
to
see
if
anything's
been
done.
Historically,
fences
are
torn
down
frequently,
so
it's
going
to
be
incumbent
upon
her
to
keep
those
up.
The
sense
is
not
so
much
satisfying
the
the
nuisance
ordinance.
That's
just
a
safety
issue,
so
I
really
honestly
can't
answer
that
question.
E
M
She's
got
a
standing
court
order
that
says
200
days
at
least
take
care
of
the
roof
which
is
going
to
be
issued
six
months
180
days,
and
this
was
April
17th
of
the
court
order.
So
six
months
puts
us
right
about
that
same
time,
so
they're
going
to
run
about
the
same
time,
but
the
city's
a
little
more
restrictive
in
the
sense
that
we
don't
allow
the
boarding
up
of
the
buildings.
But.
E
M
Our
ordinance,
so
the
first
step
is
going
to
be
her.
What
I've
asked
her
to
do
now
for
over
a
month
is
to
get
an
engineering
survey
to
determine
the
viability
of
the
property
and
then,
from
that
point,
she's
got
she's
got
two
choices,
but
if
the
engineering
survey
says
it
can
be
rebuilt,
those
same
two
choices
exist,
rebuild
it
or
destroy
it.
If
the
engineering
survey
says
can't
be
rebuilt,
then
there's
a
option:
that's
destroy
the
property
and
demolish.
Q

C
Q
Property
I
went
a
couple
of
times
have
looked
at
there's,
a
lot
of
work
has
to
be
done,
but
still
the
is
a
lot
of
smoke
in
house
it.
Not
that
destroyed
completely
in
my
opinion
can
be
revealed,
not
destroyed.
You
know,
regime
was
demolished
and-
and
if
you,
if
this
board
says
the
okay,
we
can
apply
for
the
building
permit
and
we
start
in
six
months,
we'll
be
very
Publius.

Your
help
at
resolving
this
problem
is
appreciated
and
he
has
his
phone
number
and
his
signature
and
if
it
pleases
the
board,
we
can
enter
his
evidence
on
his
behalf.
I
have
an
objection
to
it.
I
think.
Q
O
Q
Q
C
Q
Q
Q
C
A
A
M
Q
M
C
Orbiter
one
of
you
if,
in
fact
the
engineering
survey
is
made
in
it
and
it's
shown
that
the
house
can
be
rehabilitated
for
occupancy,
is
there
an
estimate
as
to
how
much
time
you
would
need
to
do
that?
Accomplish
that
I
know,
I
know
that
there's
been
a
request
for
six
months,
but
is
there
what
would
be
the
absolute
minimum
that
you
would
well.
R
D
C
Q
O
Q
Yes,
without
the
building
after
we
got
the
permit
under
Harlow
we're
taking
the
city
to
give
up
the
permit,
but
right
now
I
have
something
else
to
ask
this
coming
summer
or
other
people
going
on
vacations
and
other
things
and
I'm
I'm
going
to
live
for
July
the
15.
It
comes
back
over
the
end
of
August.
That's
why
I
would
appreciate
if
their
time
timewise
you
know,
we
don't
have
to
come
back
to
you
and
ask
if
you
can
give
us
more
time
to.
E
I
C
F
That's
so
your
duty,
your
obligation
is
determined
whether
there
is
a
code
violation
and,
if
so,
establish
a
time
and
a
fine
if
they
don't.
If
you
believe
that
it's
going
to
take
them
a
long
period
of
time-
and
you
don't
necessarily
agree
with
that,
then
you
can
put
whatever
time
that
you
think
is
appropriate.
Based
upon
the
circumstances
of
the
case,
and
as
for
the
dollar
amount
of
the
fine,
you
can.
F
You
know,
I'd
love,
you
fine,
anywhere
from
zero
to
$250
a
day
for
every
day
that
the
property
remains
in
non-compliance,
and
when
you
look
at
that,
the
dollar
amount
of
the
flying
you're
supposed
to
look
at
the
gravity
of
the
violation.
How
serious
it
actually
is.
What
attempts
that
they've
made
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance
since
the
Notice
of
Violation
has
been
issue
and
whether
or
not
they've
been
cited
in
the
past
for
violations
that
can
also
be
taken
into
consideration.
F
But
that's
how
you
figure
out
the
dollar
amount
of
the
file
so
give
them
a
period
of
time
and
set
a
dollar
amount
of
the
fine,
and
that's
done
in
the
second
portion
of
the
next
motion
that
will
be
made.
That's
how
we're
going
to
address
it
then
so
right
now,
this
motion
is:
are
they
in
violation
or
not
invalid?.
C
C
M
You,
mr.
chairman,
yes
I,
would
I
would
agree
with
the
six
months
and
largely
that's
because
they're
sustaining
hold
by
a
judge
that
runs
along
about
that
same
period
of
time.
The
other
thing
I'd
like
to
bring
before
the
board
is
I
have
a
number
of
prior
cases.
I
can
tell
you
from
2010
forward
at
least
10
cases
on
this
property.
I've
worked
here
20
years,
I
can't
remember
exactly
what
you're
the
house
burned
up,
but
it's
never
been
dealt
with.
It's
always
been
an
issue.
K
D
M
Occur
is
my
Notice
of
Violation,
a
notice
of
hearing
defense
got
put
up,
which
does
significantly
help,
hopefully
to
keep
people
out
of
it,
but
I
think
six
months
as
a
reasonable,
only
commensurate
with
that
the
judge's
order.
But
with
that
being
said,
and
either
needs
to
be
demolished
or
it
needs
to
be
rebuilt
and
a
certificate
of
occupancy
needs
to
be
issued
for
the
city
to
find
it
in
compliance
within
at
six
months
and
at
that
point
in
time,
primarily
based
on
the
priors
I
would
ask
for
a
hundred
dollars
a
day.

as

you've
been
found
in
violation
of
section
8

of
the
Code

of
the
city
of
Tarpon

you've
been
given
until

to
bring
the
property
into
compliance.
Should
you
fail
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance
by
November
10?
The
city
is
going
to
be
living
a
fine
of
$100
a

for
each
day
that
the
violation
continues
to
exist.

This

is
another
dilapidated
structure
that
I'm
requesting
the
board
find
a
violation
of
8
40
under
the
nuisance
code.
Additional
inspection
was
conducted
on
April
8th
of
this
year.
The
structure
is
severely
damaged
by
fire
many
years
ago.
I
want
to
say
at
least
eight
years
ago
approximately
and
it
as
well
as
unfit

The

As
I
stated,
April
8th
was
the
initial
inspection
and
then
a
notice
violation
was
mailed.
First
class
return
receive
requested
to
the
listed
property
owners
via
the
Pinellas
County
database
property
appraiser
and
tax
collector
on
April
13th.
We
did
receive
a
phone
call
from
a
female
speaking
on
behalf
of
Pierre
Fowler.
M
She
stated
there
had
been
an
engineer
out
there
and
they
do
plan
on
rebuilding
the
home.
We
asked
to
have
a
report
from
the
engineer
and
she
would
be
required
to
get
a
building
permit.
Go
through
the
proper
process
on
April
17th
of
this
year,
the
certified
return
receipt
for
the
Notice
of
Violation
was
received.
That
was
the
one
that
was
sent
to
Pierre
Fowler
and
then
on
that
same
date,
they
won
for
Tiffany
Coleman
was
received
as
flawless
April

The
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
first

M
M
They
advised
in
the
letter
that
the
plan
is
being
developed
to
replace
the
house
or
replace
the
old
structure.
More
time
was
requested,
but
a
specific
timeline
was
not
provided
and
then
the
letters
attached
as
well
on
April
24th,
the
certified
signed
receipt
for
the
NIH
for
both
property
owners
was
received
in
our
office
on
April
29th
I
posted
the
property
and
on
May
10th
I
conducted
a
final
inspection.
There
was
no
change,
it
basically
still
stands
as
the
photos
depict
and
at
this
time
I
have
nothing
further.
C
I
I
M
To
answer
your
question:
the
I'm
bringing
them
before
the
board
so
that
I
can
actually
get
some
finality
and
we
can
move
forward
with
with
a
legal
process
that
may
need
to
occur
with
them
just
sitting
there,
as
they
are
there's
absolutely
nothing.
That's
going
to
occur,
with
the
exception
of
the
prior
case,
where
a
final
judgment
is
issued
by
Judge
it
based
on
somebody,
asked
for
injunctive
relief
through
a
court
order
to
have
certain
things
done
to
these
properties.
This
is
my
two
years,
which
isn't
an
extensive
time,
mr.
mr.
M
Trask
escena
before,
but
that's.
Finally,
the
first
time
I
actually
saw
somebody
get
a
court
order
to
do
something,
but
with
that
being
said,
I'm
bringing
before
the
board
so
that
it
kind
of
starts
the
pathway
for
these
houses
to
be
dealt
with
by
the
city.
If
need
be.
We
obviously
would
prefer
that
the
homeowners
take
care
of
these
properties
themselves
and
then,
hopefully,
by
bringing
the
cases
in
the
board
finding
them
and
assessing
a
period
of
time
and
potential
fines.
M
I
E

And
so
I
had
opened
a
case
up
and
as
I
progress
through
my
career
and
knowing
this
job
I've
learned
new
things
as
I've
gone
along
and
started
to
read
the
ordinances
and
realize
that
there
was
a
solution,
so
unfortunately,
I
didn't
take
care
of
it
on
the
prior
case
in
2016,
because
I
was
really
still
kind
of
new
I
didn't
understand
it
ability
to
do
that
as
I
stated.
So
now
we're
at
the
position
where
I'm
a
little
more
comfortable.
My
feet
have
been
wet
so
to
speak.
Okay,.
K

M
Along
with
the
other
ones,
it's
probably
reasonable
to
look
at.
They
do
have
the
engineering
report
and
they're
stating
a
plan
is
being
developed
for
a
solution
to
the
existing
structure,
and
that
was
April
14,
which
is
now
past
one
month.
I
would
say
that
I
think
it's
reasonable
I
would
ask
for
four
months.
I
know
that
sounds
kind
of
interesting,
but
they've
already
had
a
month
go
by
to
work
on
it.
So
I
think
four
more
months,
based
on
what
the
the
prior
gentleman
was
saying,
who's,
apparently
some
sort
of
an
engineer.
M

I

And
the
motion
passes
that
moves
us
on
to
case
number
17:

the
address
to
722
Merlin's
Court,
the
property
owner
listed,
is
James
R
Bower
this
case
I
bring
before
the
board.
It
is
currently
in
compliance
and
I
asked
for
it
to
be
established.
The
primary
violation
is
8
40,
which
is
duty
maintained,
private
property,
which
deals
with
lot
maintenance.
M
There's
4
exhibits
going
around
exhibit
number
one
of
my
photographs,
the
initial
inspection,
the
posting
in
the
final
inspection
exhibit
number
two
or
all
of
my
notices,
including
the
Notice
of
Violation
and
Notice
of
Hearing,
and
certified
return.
Receipts
exhibit
number
three.
Is
my
administrative
documents
and
exhibit
number
four?
Is
the
affidavit
of
posting
in
the
copy
of
the
sign?
M
Initially
I
inspected
the
property
on
April
18th.
A
lot
was
overgrown.
I
happened
to
be
a
Brazilian
pepper
tree
in
front
of
it
right
by
the
main
door
on
April,
7,
I'm,
sorry,
April
18th,
the
Notice
of
Violation
in
the
notice
of
hearing,
were
sent
to
be
a
first
class
return.
Receipt
requested
to
the
listed
property
owner
via
the
Pinellas
County
Tax
Collector
and
property
appraisers
database
April,
29th
I
posted
the
property
May
10th
I
conduct
an
inspection,
and
it
was
in
compliance
should
be
noted
before
the
board.
M
That
I
personally
have
had
two
prior
cases
for
the
exact
same
thing
and
looking
through
our
prior
records,
there's
approximately
ten
or
so
where
the
shellman
doesn't
seem
to
want
to
take
care
of.
They
are
the
primary
purpose
to
bring
where
the
board
is
so
that
he
becomes
a
repeat
violator
and
hopefully
influence
him
to
take
care
of
his
own
property
without
the
city
having
to
expend
the
time
to
do
so,
and
at
this
time,
I'd
like
the
board
to
find
him
a
violation
of
8
40
of
the
city
code.
I
have.
C
K
As
based
on
the
testimony
evidence,
facts
presented
in
the
law
at
the
time
of
the
alleged
violation,
section
840
of
the
Code
of
Ordinances
of
the
city
of
Tarpon
Springs,
was
in
full
force.
In
effect,
at
the
time
of
the
Notice
of
Violation,
the
respondents
were
in
violation
of
said
code
section.
However,
they
are
now
in
compliant.

All
right
so,
the
first
one
there
isn't,
you
guys
go
down
there.
This
is
further
on
back
in
the
book.
We
just
have
to
accept
these
affidavits
at
the
end
of
every
meeting.
Okay,
I
move,
based
on
the
testimony,
evidence
and
facts
presented
and
law
that
the
respondent
failed
to
timely,
comply
with
the
board's
prior
order
within
the
time
prescribed
and
to
award
this
okay.
Here's
our
prescribe,
30,
okay,
the
time
prescribed
and
and.
E
E
C
E
Think
this
thing
needs
to
be
rewritten
a
little
bit
because
there
was
no
place
for
me
to
give
the
case
number
on
the
previous
one.
Okay,
I
move,
based
on
the
testimony
evidence
and
tax
present
a
law
that
the
respondent
failed
to
timely,
comply
with
this
board's
prior
order
within
the
time
prescribed
and
to
award
the
city
a
hundred
and
seventy
nine
dollars
for
the
costs
incurred,
and
the
prosecuting
of
this
case
there.
A
second.

M
M
D
I
I
C
Said,
although
I
probably
should
have
been
kicked
a
few
title,
all
right,
then
so
we're
all
under
the
understanding
that
the
June
meeting
will
be
June
29th.
The
July
meeting
will
be
on
July
20th
and
that
helps
out
the
officer
Gaston
and
since
I've
mispronounced,
his
name
flash
so
would
slinky
a
time
if
I'm
glad
to
bother.
We
can
do
them
a
little
bit
of
good
that'll,
be
up
at
any
comment
to
any
public
comments
or
any
comments
from
the
board.
Anything.

K
O
Dooley
Wade,

actually
met
at
the
citizens
Academy.
Thank

fantastic
program
