E
Gravely
father
sit
down
your
blessing
on
this
meeting,
the
code
enforcement
board.
You
have
the
board
members
a
clear
sense
of
duty
and
lead
them
to
a
faithful
discharge
of
the
same
direct
them
in
their
deliberations
at
this
meeting,
so
that
all
things
may
be
done,
the
glory
of
their
name
in
the
welfare
of
the
people
of
the
city
of
Parkman
screams.
This
we
pray
on
it,
I
pledge
allegiance.
B
A
It
is
the
intention
of
this
board
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,
and
the
aggrieved
party
may
appeal
a
final
administrative
order
of
this
board
to
the
circuit
court.
Such
an
appeal
should
be
filed
within
30
days
of
the
exact
execution
of
the
order
to
be
healed
or
to
statute
to
86.0.
A
1:05
requires
any
party
appealing
a
decision
of
this
board
to
have
a
record
of
the
proceedings
to
support
such
an
appeal.
The
proceed.
The
board
goes
as
follows:
versus
city
presents
his
witnesses
and
exhibits,
after
which
the
alleged
violator
is
able
to
ask
the
city's
witnesses
any
specific
questions
regarding
their
testimony.
Secondly,
the
alleged
violator
is
allowed
to
make
a
presentation
and
present
his
or
her
witnesses
and
exhibits.
A
Then
the
city
can
question
the
alleged
violators
witnesses
after
both
rounds
of
testimony
both
in
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.
Before
we
begin
the
public
hearings,
we
will
ask
potential
witnesses
to
stand
and
be
sworn
in
by
the
Secretary
of
the

E
A
F
A
G
You
the
case
originally
started:
November
30th
of
2017
I've
got
a
complaint
about
debris
and
stuff
in
the
yard.
Some
of
those
post-hurricane
that's
kind
of
what
started
it.
There
was
just
a
large
amount
of
debris
out
front.
There
wasn't
a
B.
There
was
a
vehicle
that
fell
under
the
classification
of
abandoned
I
spoke
to.
Mr.
G
Jones
spoke
to
him
a
few
times
he's
in
the
process
of
trying
to
clean
it
up
he's
still
in
the
process
of
trying
to
clean
it
up,
there's
a
significant
amount
of
what's
classified
as
debris,
but
trash
and
old
equipment,
and
things
like
that
on
the
property.
When
I
spoke
to
him,
he
had
stated
he
had
gotten
sick.
So
that's
the
reason
why
it
wasn't
done
by
now
moving
forward
I
conducted
another
inspection
in
January.
There
was
minimal
change.
The
vehicle
was
still
there
at
the
time.
G
At
that
point,
in
time
we
issued
a
Notice
of
Violation,
sent
it
via
certified
mail
in
first-class
mail
conducted
another
inspection
on
February
23rd.
Some
of
the
front
area
was
cleaned
up.
There
was
a
fence
installed
to
kind
of
secure
some
of
the
debris
in
the
back
yard
of
the
house.
Unfortunately,
it's
still
visible
from
distant
and
from
Martin
Luther
King,
the
vehicle
at
that
time
was
gone,
so
I
complied
that
violation.
A
final
Notice
of
Violation
was
mailed
certified
and
first
class
on
February
23rd
conducted
another
Rhian
spec
ssin.
G
During
that
time,
we'd
talked
to
mr.
Jones
and
he
asked
for
kind
of
an
extension.
That's
the
reason
why
I
went
from
February
to
April
on
April
5th
I
conducted
another
inspection,
they're
still
debris
in
the
rear
yard.
The
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
on
that
date.
Certified
and
first
class
on
February
April
28th
of
this
year,
posted
the
property
and
the
affidavit
of
posting
was
signed.
I
conducted
a
final
inspection
on
the
property
yesterday
and
basically,
there
was
very
little
change
from
the
last
inspection
in
April.
We
did
get
back.
G
The
notice
of
hearing
was
returned,
signed,
the
notice
of
violations
were
unsigned
and,
as
I
stated,
we've
had
contact
with
mr.
Jones
he's
been
in
contact
with
us
before
the
board.
Right
now
is
simply
a
violation
of
a
50.
The
nuisance
prohibitions,
which
basically
deals
with
cleaning
up
debris,
unused
equipment,
unused
materials
and
the
such
from
his
property,
and
that's
all
I,
have
at
this
time
does.
F
Like
I
said,
I
just
need
a
little
more
time
to
get
everything
taken.
Care
of
I'm,
probably
cleaning
up
its
just-
has
been
accumulated
over
the
years.
My
mom's
on
the
house
since
1957,
so
over
those
from
out
of
years
or
accumulate
quite
a
bit
of
stuff,
so
I
am
cleaning
it
up
and
then
storm
came
and
tore
it
up.
So
now
we're
dealing
with
the
insurance
family
trying
to
get
our
roof
taken,
care
of
and
all
sorts
of
things
get
away.
Oh,
it's
no
rough,
but
I
will
get
anything
yeah.

G
This
case
initially
started
on
April
5th
of
this
year,
when
myself
and
other
members
of
the
Tarpon
Springs
Police
Department
SWAT
team
executed
a
drug
search
warrant
on
the
property
at
427
South
distant
based
on
the
information
from
the
under
Sheriff's
Office
case
numbers
s,
Oh,
18,
81,
974
and
tarpon
springs
case.
1888
30.
There
were
drug
sales
that
were
occurring
on
the
property,
specifically
in
Eric
Washington
sold
crack
cocaine
to
an
undercover
detective
two
times
from
the
residents
of
427
South
distant
Avenue.
G
G
In
the
process
executing
a
search
warrant
since
I'm
also
the
code
enforcement
officer
I
noticed
numerous
violations
on
the
property
along
with
the
nuisance
violation
that
goes
with
the
criminal
acts
that
are
occurring
on
the
property,
also
discovered.
There
was
some
trash
and
debris
being
stored
on
it.
On
specifically
on
the
south
side
and
the
north
side
of
the
house,
there
was
a
hot
tub
bunch
of
other
trash
and
debris
in
the
rear
yard.
There
was
trash
and
debris.
G
There
were
broken
windows,
they
were
exposed
wiring
in
the
house,
specifically
under
the
front
pad
on
the
front
porch.
There
are
numerous
pepper
trees
on
the
property
and
the
fence
was
important,
dilapidated
condition.
So
on
April,
9th
the
notice
of
violation
and
notice
a
hearing
was,
was
mailed
certified
and
first-class.
The
property
owner
I
didn't
conduct
a
rien
spec
ssin
on
April
26.
Significantly,
there
was
no
changes
on
April
28,
they
posted
the
property
in
an
avid
Avett,
a
posting
was
signed,
and
that
was
at
the
time.
My
final
inspection
was
on.
G
April
28
the
owner,
had
contacted
the
office
had
the
contacted
the
office,
but
I
hadn't
specifically
talked
to
her.
Until
today
she
has
attempted
to
bring
some
of
the
things
into
compliance,
but
I
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
go
out
and
do
that
final
inspection.
Speaking
with
her,
it
sounds
like
some
of
the
issues
are
still
there,
specifically
the
fence
the
trees,
the
some
of
the
trash
and
Rhianna
property
based
on
the
codes
that
are
before
the
board.
G
Violations
of
8
22,
which
is
the
accumulation
of
trash
8
40,
is
the
duty
to
maintain
private
property.
That,
specifically,
is
the
nuisance
aspect
which
deals
with
the
drug
sales
on
the
property.
That's
not
occurring
right
now,
so
I
mean
technically
that's
in
compliance,
but
it's
here
before
the
board
to
be
established
under
840,
but
it
also
kind
of
ties
in
with
the
trash
in
the
debris.
It's
a
public
nuisance.
G
So
until
all
those
things
are
complied
with,
they're
still
technically
open.
9
1
of
the
International
Property
code
was
brought
in
specifically
section
6
Oh
4.3
for
the
electrical
system
hazards,
which
are
the
electrical
wiring,
miss
Golden,
State's,
that's
been
fixed,
but
I
haven't
personally
inspected
that.
So
until
that
point,
it's
still
an
open
violation.
G
Then
one
3303
deals
with
the
tree
exemptions,
which
require
any
time
a
certificate
of
occupancy
has
been
issued
to
a
property
that
the
property
owner
continually
maintains
and
does
not
allow
any
Brazilian
pepper,
trees
or
other
invasive
species
to
grow
or
regrow
on
the
property
and
then
finally,
IPM
c3o
4.13
deals
with
windows
and
door
frames,
which
requires
you
to
have
intact
glazing
and
your
windows
of
your
property.
Those
are
the
violations
before
the
board
at
this
time
and
I
have
nothing
further.
C
I
I
Any
time
I,
don't
imma,
be
honest,
I'd,
be
there
I
lived
there.
True
enough
and
I
didn't
know
nothing
about
no
drug
sales.
So
evidently,
if
they,
if
anybody
was
selling
drugs,
Oh
Erik
was
selling
drugs.
He
was
doing
it
on
the
nights
that
I
worked.
Cuz
I
have
a
part-time
job.
I
live
off
my
social
security
and
my
part-time
money.
I
I
I
don't
know
with
the
fence
situation
right
now:
I
bought
pieces
and
parts,
but
I
asked
him
if
he
would
come
out
and
let
me
know
whether
what
I'm
doing
is
the
you
know
the
right
thing,
because
I'm
doing
this
myself,
I
I
went
out
there
and
put
the
pieces
in
I'm
doing
this
myself.
I
don't
have
the
money
to
hire
a
fence
company,
they
won't
$1700
and
they
said
they
were
refurbished.
The
whole
fence
plus
draw
some
kind
of
permit.
I
I,
don't
have
that
kind
of
money
to
give
up
and
no
one
time
and
people
are
not
taking
payments
put
stuff.
I
spent,
oh,
like
three
four
thousand
dollars
cleaning
up
from
when
the
hurricane
came
him
blow
down
a
lot
of
trees
around
the
house.
In
the
you
know,
I
I'm,
just
doing
the
best
I
can
with
what
I
got
and
the
drug
business
I
don't
know
nothing
about
it.
Y'all
could
test
me
from
now
to
new
years:
I,
don't
do
no
drugs.
I
I
just
would
like
to
get
some
extra
time.
I
live
off
a
13,
oh
well,
with
my
with
my
part-time
job
and
and
and
and
my
Social
Security
check.
I
live
off
a
$2,300
a
month,
I
out
of
that
I
have
to
pay.
You
know
bills,
but
I'm
doing
the
best
I
can
as
to
fix
what
he
told
me
because
before
I
when
he
said
something
wrong
with
the
fish
I,
you
know
I
did
a
little
something,
but
I
didn't
do
what
I'm
doing
now,
because
I
didn't
have
the
funds.
H
Move
based
on
the
testimony
evidence
impacts
presented
in
law
that
a
time
of
the
alleged
violation,
sections
8,

You

once
the
property
is
in

will
be
no
further
activity
on
your
part
that
you'll
be
required
to
do,

if
you

These
people
have
no
ownership
interest
in
this
property.
They
are
not
the
owners
under
the
law,
and
so
they
should
not
be
speaking
on
behalf
of
Carrington

trust,
and
so,
if
mr.
Gaston
wants
to
call
them
as
witnesses,
then
he
can
call
them
as
witnesses.
Otherwise
you
are
not

to
this

to
this
code
enforcement
action,
even
though
you
may
live
there,
so
you
can
still
be
seated
there,
but
you
will
not
be
able
to
present
any
evidence.
Okay
and
you
will
not
be
able
to
cross-examine
or
ask
any
further
questions.

Owner
of
record
is
determined
by
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collector
databases.
All
notice
of
violations
and
notice
of
hearings
are
sent
via
certified
mail
return,
receipt
requested
as
well
as
first-class
mail
and,
madam
chairman,
if
you
would
please
accept
all
those
exhibits
and
evidence
of
the
record.
D
G
G
It
looked
like
everything
from
inside
of
the
house
had
basically
been
dumped
outside
of
the
house.
That's
what
spawned
the
case
and
on
March
16th
I
sent
a
Notice
of
Violation
via
certified
in
first
class
mail
conducted
a
reinfection
by
nature
of
the
fact
that
I
responded
with
other
patrol
officers
to
a
domestic
that
was
occurring
inside
the
house
when
I
responded
to
that
call.
G
G
It
was
basically
boils
down
to
Carrington
mortgage
owns
that
flat
out
right,
there's
no
other
documentation
of
any
sort
showing
any
other
type
of
ownership.
Other
than
Carrington
owns
it.
I
conducted
a
Rhian,
spec
Chinon
March
31st.
Basically,
there
was
no
change.
Admittedly,
I
hadn't
been
back
inside
that
fenced
area.
I
spoke
out
before,
because
I
haven't
been
invited
back
on
the
property
on
April
2nd,
the
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
first
class
I've
been
our
office
has
been
exchanging
emails
back
and
forth.
G
With
a
representative
of
Carrington
mortgage,
they
flat
outright
said
sorry,
the
house
is
occupied.
We
won't
do
anything
about
it,
so
Carrington
mortgage,
the
company
itself,
their
management
company,
has
basically
told
us
in
emails
which
are
included
with
the
case
that,
because
the
property
is
occupied,
they
won't
clean
it
up.
It's
not
quote-unquote
their
responsibility,
so,
needless
to
say,
that's
as
far
as
I
got
with
the
mortgage
company
or
the
property
owners.
So
at
this
time
before
I
conducted
my
final
inspection
yesterday,
there
was
some
cleanup
of
trash
outside
that
I
could
see.
G
G
But
at
this
point
in
time,
as
I
stated,
I
still
don't
have
any
reason
to
believe
or
any
evidence
that
they
are
not
in
violation
of
8
22,
which
is
the
accumulation
of
trash
8
40,
which
is
a
nuisance
and
the
duty
to
maintain
private
property
in
any
of
the
nuisance
conditions,
specifically
dealing
with
that
pool.
Even
though
it
is
inside
of
a
fenced
area.
It's
still
a
nuisance
and
8:52,
which
is
debris
and
trash
and
of
the
sort
on
the
property,
and
that's
all
I
have
at
this
time.
In.
A
M
E
M
A
N
A
H
C
C
E
Just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
residents
understand
so
the
mortgage
company
has
been
found
in
violation
or
the
owner
has
been
found
in
violation.
The
mortgage
company
has
been
given
to
give
until
July
I'm
sorry
June
11th
to
come
into
compliance,
so
they're
going
to
be
fined
$100
a
day.
So
that's
that's
what
this
board
has
decided
if
you
want
to
be
involved
in
getting
the
property
cleaned
up,
like
I
said
you
can
talk
to
officer
gas
and
after
the
meeting.
K
K
K
F
E
E
B
A
E
Let
me
just
explain
all
right:
okay,
so
the
city
is
gonna
tender.
Those
documents
into
evidence,
whether
they're
photographs
or
documents,
okay,
you're,
being
asked
as
by
the
Chairman.
Whether
or
not
you
have
any
legal
objections.
If
you
don't
have
any
legal
objections
that
will
be
received
into
evidence.
If
you
do
have
legal
objections,
you
need
to
tell
the
Chairman
at
this
point
what
your
legal
objections
are,
not
that
the
property
has
changed
and
is
different
since
a
photograph
was
taken.
That's
not
a
legal
objection.
Okay,.
A
A
G
And,
madam
chairman,
all
of
my
photographs
and
exhibits
that
were
given
to
the
violator,
exact
copies
of
what
was
presented
to
the
board.
All
the
notices
were
mailed
to
the
property
owner
of
record
is
determined
by
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax,
collector
databases
and
I'll
notice
of
violations
and
notice
of
hearings
percent
certified
return
receipt
as
well
as
first-class
and
ma'am
I.
Believe
you
already
accepted
him
into
the
record.
G
This
initially
started
back
in
February
of
2018
I
was
expecting.
I
was
inspecting
neighboring
properties
and
I
observed
violations
on
this
property,
namely
a
red
Jeep
with
no
tags
in
the
rear
yard,
numerous
rusted,
wheelbarrows,
old
riding
lawnmower,
which
appears
inoperable
and
unused
other
trash
and
debris
on
the
property
and
a
chain-link
fence
along
the
alleyway.
That
was
in
very
important,
dilapidated
condition
since
sent
a
letter
out
on
February
12th
conducted
another
inspection
on
March
23rd.
Basically,
there
was
no
change
at
that
point
in
time,
sent
out
a
notice
of
violation.
G
April
13th
conducted
a
inspection.
Basically
still
no
change
did
receive
an
email
asking
for
more
time,
but
no
specific
timeframe
was
given.
So
we
at
that
point
in
time
put
it
on
the
Senate
notice
of
hearing
for
April
17th.
The
notice
of
hearing
was
mailed
first-class
and
certified
on
April
28th
that
posted
the
property
and
I
conducted
a
final
inspection.
G
Yesterday,
the
fence
has
primarily
been
taken
down
with
the
exception
of
some
posts,
and
my
understanding
is
that
they
left
the
posts
up
because
they're
attempting
to
replace
the
fencing,
the
chain-link
material
and
reused
the
post,
the
Jeep,
as
of
yesterday,
had
flashing
lights
and
was
on
a
charger.
So
I
don't
know.
I
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
go
by
today
and
see
if
the
Jeep
is
still
there
or
if
it's
tagged
and
inoperable,
which
is
perfectly
fine
there.
G
The
wheelbarrows
were
no
longer
stacked
up
along
the
side
of
the
shed,
and
the
only
thing
I
saw
that
remained
yesterday.
Was
the
old
lawnmower
build
riding
a
lot
more
so
at
this
point
in
time,
8
40
duty
to
maintain
private
property,
the
nuisance
prohibitions,
which
are
debris
which
is
classified
as
old
unused
equipment
and
a
myriad
of
other
things.
As
of
my
last
inspection,
as
I
stated,
the
red
Jeep
was
still
there.
So
4000
was
still
in
effect
as
of
May
9th,
and
then
the
fence
is
technically
under
the
code.
G
D
A
That
the
red
Jeep
is
gone
and,
and
so
is
the
lawnmower
and
the
fencing
I
did
not
know
until
I
talked
to
Beth
about
it
today,
but
we
are
hoping
to
recreate
the
fence
more
like
a
green
Confederate,
Jasmine
fence,
not
just
a
teen
link
with
a
green
fence.
Instead
of
that,
we
should
do
that
within.
Hopefully,
if
the
irrigation
gets
working
again
30
days.
A
Would
be
the
last
thing
everything
else
is
gone
and
I
did
not.
I
went
down
lemon
street
today
and
saw
some
other
places
where
they
had
rope
with
the
fence
and
I
did
not
know
that
that
was
an
alternative
offense,
but
now
we're
hoping
to
get
a
green
fence.
That
alley
is
very
dusty
in
the
summer
and
something
to
block
the
dust
from
coming
on
any
other
question
off
the
gas
in.
Do
you
have
any
questions?
No.
H
C
C
A
H
C
B
A
A
And
an
order
will
be
issued
and
mail
to
you
within
10
days.
I
just
wanted
to
make
note
that
and
lemon
Street.
We
have
box
of
mail
and
a
lot
of
time
our
mails
yet
which
so
I
never
got
a
February
one
I
get
mr.
Latta
kisses
mail.
All
the
time
in
my
box,
oh
I,
don't
know
what
we
could
do.
I'm
gonna
check
with
the
post
office.
Have
you
done.

Case
started
on
March
3rd
this
year,
originally
got
a
complaint
about
two
vehicles
on
the
property,
with
no
tags,
I
inspected
it
and
found
such
a
red
vehicle
missing
a
front
bumper
with
no
tag
and
then
a
silver
I
believe
it's
a
Mercury
parked
in
front
of
it
on
the
east
side
of
the
property
as
well.
With
no
tag
on
March
5th,
we
mailed
out
a
Notice
of
Violation,
both
certified
in
first
class
I
conducted
a
inspection
on
March
21st.
G
Both
vehicles
were
strolling,
the
property
with
no
tags,
April
12th,
the
notice
you're
hearing
was
mailed
April
28th.
They
posted
the
property
and
signed
the
affidavit
on
May
9th
conducted
the
inspection
and
there's
two
vehicles
are
still
there,
that
no

been

This

G
They
started
March
30th
of
this
year,
got
a
complain
about
a
couple
of
properties
in
that
area
of
North
Avenue.
There
was
an
old
scooter
appears
to
be
unused,
as
well
as
an
unused
jet
ski
there's,
a
white
Pontiac
backed
in
and
some
other
debris
in
the
front
yard,
sent
a
letter
on
March
20th
conducted
our
inspection
on
April
5th.
There
was
no
change
at
that
point.
Time
sent
a
Notice
of
Violation,
which
was
sent
on
April
5th
on
April
18th.
G
We
amended
the
Notice
of
Violation
because
originally
I'd
forgot
to
put
in
the
white
Pontiac,
so
we
amended
its
and
a
new
violation
or
amended
notice
of
violation
out
for
the
vehicle
notice.
The
hearing
was
sent
on
April
18th
and
I
conducted
a
rien
spec
ssin
on
April
19th.
The
jetski
is
still
there
and
the
there's
like
a
grill
and
the
scooter
was
still
there
at
that
time.
On
the
north
side
of
the
property
on
April
28th
I
conducted
another
inspection
and
the.
M
G
In
the
Pontiac
are
gone
so
I
closed,
those
violations,
the
jetski
still
on
the
south
side
of
the
house.
The
barbecue
grill
is
a
couple
of
tires
and
things
are
still
on
the
north
side
of
the
house.
The
property
was
posted
on
April
28,
conducted
the
inspection,
a
final
inspection
yesterday
and,
as
I
stated,
the
jetski,
the
barbecue.
You
know
it
looks
like
a
55-gallon
drum
and
is
sitting
there
on
the
north
side
of
the
house
by
the
fence.
You
can
kind
of
see
it
in
one
of
the
pictures
that
absolutely.
G
I've
had
no
personal
contact,
they
did
leave
a
message
but
were
unable
to
call
him
back
because
it
was
like
a
hospital
number.
So
it
was
a
generic
on
our
caller
ID.
So
we
we've
technically
had
no
contact
with
the
property
owner
before
the
board.
At
this
time
our
violation,
8
52,
the
nuisance
prohibitions.
For
basically
the
debris,
the
jetski
appears
to
be
unused
equipment.
So
it
falls
under
the
definition
of
debris
as
well
as
the
rather
rusty
barbecue
or
smoker
or
whatever.
A

A

A
G
Case
originally
started
based
on
a
citizen
complaint
on
April
7th
of
this
year,
two
stack
of
boxes
out
in
front
of
the
house.
This
is
an
ongoing
issue.
I
actually
have
a
prior
case
for
the
exact
same
thing.
It
appears
she
just
continually
gets
deliveries
and
they're
stacked
up
out
in
front
of
the
house.
What
was
different
about
this
time
from
my
prior
cases,
she
installed
some
sort
of
like
shutters
or
something
in
her
front
patio
area.
G
So
there
was
boxes
stacked
up
behind
that
that
you
could
see
through
the
opening
in
him,
and
there
was
also
a
couple
of
trash
cans
out
in
front
of
her
garage
that
weren't
stored
properly.
At
that
point
in
time,
I
decided
to
go
ahead
and
bring
her
before
the
board
to
have
her
established
for
those
violations
she's
still
in
violation,
but
my
intent
was
regardless
was
to
bring
her
before
the
board.
G
So
for
that
reason,
on
April
9th
we
sent
a
Notice
of
Violation
and
a
notice
of
hearing
since
certified
mail
as
well
as
first
class
on
April
25th
I
conducted
a
rien
spec
ssin.
Some
of
the
boxes
were
picked
up
from
in
front
of
the
shutters,
but
you
could
still
see
them
stacked
up
clearly
behind
the
shutter
material
on
April
28
that
posted
the
property
and
affidavit
of
posting
was
said.
Who.
M
G
Signed
on
May,
9th
I
conducted
another
inspection
and,
as
I
stated,
there's
still
some
packages
stacked
up
behind
those
doors,
clearly
visible
from
the
roadway.
We
did
get
a
phone
call
from
the
owner,
I,
don't
know
exactly
what
the
results
of
that
word.
As
I
stated
on
May
9th
yesterday,
they
were
still
in
violation.
G
The
in
regards
to
8-16,
which
is
the
pre
collection
practices
of
the
trash
cans.
When
I
saw
it
the
other
day,
it
was
trash
day,
so
I
kind
of
don't
take
that
into
account.
So
I
would
say
it's
still
in
violation
as
of
today.
If
nothing
else,
it
will
be
established
by
this
board.
It
would
be
my
intent
and
then
8
40,
primarily
under
the
duty
to
maintain
property
and
the
nuisance
conditions.
G
Those
definitions
under
8
38
41
are
encompassed
by
841
of
the
very
first
conditions
of
nuisance
conditions
under
our
ordinances,
a
condition
or
use
that
causes
a
substantial
Dominion,
ation
of
property,
value
or
property
in
the
vicinity
of
the
condition
of
use.
Basically,
this
has
been
kind
of
constant
neighbor
complaints,
I've
seen
it
pretty
substantial,
where
the
boxes
are
just
stacked
up.
She's
had
meat
delivered
and
it's
gone
rotting
out
in
front
of
the
house.
I
think
that's
a
fair
statement
based
on
these
property
owners.
G
A
couple
of
them
actually
put
their
houses
up
for
sale
that
it
falls
under
that
definition
under
838
or
I'm.
Sorry,
under
841,
subsection,
a
so
for
that
reason,
like
I,
said:
they're
still
boxes
there.
So,
in
my
opinion,
it's
still
in
violation.
So
before
the
board
is
8
16
and
8
40
the
duty
maintained
private
property
in
the
nuisance
conditions.
G
G
A
A
C
A
G
Know,
as
I
stated,
there
was
one
prior
in
2015.
It
was
the
same
thing
when
I
first
started
in
code
enforcement.
It
was
pretty
substantial
at
the
time.
In
all,
honesty,
in
my
opinion,
seems
to
be
a
hoarding
issue,
because,
as
I
stated,
I'd
been
out
that
property
we
did
a
welfare
check
because
of
the
smells
that
were
coming
out
of
the
house.
G
We
actually
forced
entry
into
the
house
and
the
garage
was
the
house
was
stuff
was
stuff,
so
it's
gonna
continue
to
happen,
but
I'd
like
to
see,
or
at
least
be
able
to
get
that
front
part
cleaned
up
within
the
next
30
days
and
I
think
probably
in
this
case
a
reasonable
fine,
because
she's
only
had
the
one
other
violation
back
in
2015
is
like
$50
a
day.
The
board's
establishing
her
so
I
have
a
feeling,
it'll
probably
be
revisited.
I'm
hoping
it
won't
be.
G
H
A
C
C
G
A
A
A
A
P
And
as
much
as
we
have
an
initial
charge
in
december,
22nd,
17
officer,
gasps
and
goes
back
and
without
amending
the
complaint
takes
photographs
of
other
things
that
are
dumped
alongside
the
property
which
my
client
has
to
clean
up,
and
so
obviously
there's
a
termination
date
as
to
when
the
things
that
were
my
client
was
charged
with
and
got
the
clearance.
Many
days
later,
I
mean
two
two
and
a
half
months
later,
so
not
as
to
the
original
photographs.
Yes,
as
to
the
photographs
taken
on
and
after
January
10
mm.
A
G
Basically,
December
22nd,
we
conducted
the
inspections-
it's
not
unusual
for
me
to
go
back
and
take
photographs
at
a
later
date.
You
know,
as
far
as
that
goes
a
lot
of
times,
those
as
counsel
states.
Additional
charges
are
just
additional
information
under
the
original
charge.
852
is
rather
broad.
840
is
rather
broad,
so
you
know
trash
and
debris
and
you'd
notice
it
on
another
side
of
the
house
when
you
take
photographs,
the
original
still
there
so
based
at
the
base
at
the
time
the
violations
occurred
also
going
forward
with
that,
as
property
is
cleaned
up.
G
E
A
E
A
G
You
as
I
stated
officer
gas
in
City
tarp
brings
code
enforcement,
the
case
17-8
zero,
zero,
zero,
zero.
Seven,
seven
to
all
the
photographs
that
are
presented
to
the
board
include
my
inspections,
exhibit
number
two
or
all
of
my
notices
to
include
the
notice
of
violation
and
notice
of
hearings,
examine
exhibit
number
three
or
my
administrative
Docs
to
include
the
case.
Summary
property,
appraiser
and
tax
collector
records
and
any
emails
exhibit
number
four.
Is
the
affidavit
of
posting
in
a
copy
of
the
sign
and
exhibit
number
five?
Is
the
affidavit
of
prosecution
cost?
G
For
the
case,
all
the
photographs
and
exhibits
that
were
given
to
the
violator
are
exact
copies
of
what's
being
presented
to
the
board.
All
the
notices
were
mailed
to
the
property
owner
of
record
is
determined
by
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collector
database
and
I
believe
you
already
have.
But
if
you
would,
please
accept
all
those
items
into
evidence
for
the
record.
As
mr.
G
Rock
stated,
my
initial
inspection
was
December
22nd
in
2017
of
the
property
of
439
East
lemon
Street,
originally
I
was
in
I,
was
conducting
expection
on
a
neighboring
property
post
hurricane
damage.
There
had
been
some
tree
damage
in
that
alleyway
on
Lemon
Street.
That
also
stemmed
from
the
previous
case,
I
talked
about
at
435
East
lemon,
which
is
directly
next
door
to
the
west
of
this
property.
G
I
discovered
numerous
violations
violations.
There
is
Brazilian
pepper
trees
on
the
property.
They
were
obstructing
the
alley
to
the
north
and
making
it
difficult
to
get
through
the
right
away.
There
was
also
a
Mercury
vehicle
parked
in
which
appeared
to
be
an
operative.
I
was
unable
to
see
the
tags
or
confirm
the
registration
validity
or
operability.
G
There
was
other
trash
and
debris
on
the
property
which
needed
to
be
cleaned
up
and
mowed.
The
fence
was
in
poor
condition.
Fence
on
the
east
side
was
like
an
agricultural
type
of
fencing,
not
a
typical
residential
type
fence.
It
was
a
kind
of
like
most
like
a
mesh
material,
as
you
can
see
in
the
photographs,
and
it
was
also
important
dition
now
this
one.
This
property
originally
became
a
repeat
violator
for
a
couple
of
prior
cases,
initially
in
2015
under
case
15-3
91.
G
This
particular
address
for
39
East
Lemon
Street
was
in
violation
of
8
40,
which
is
one
of
the
violations
brought
before
the
board
today.
Also
199
Grand
Boulevard
in
October
of
2017
under
a
17-4
81,
was
in
violation
of
8
40
heard
before
this
board,
so
under
case
number
17
6
1,
8,
8
4
t
+,
8
52
were
heard
before
this
board
November
2017
439
West
Oakwood.
G
G
January
12th
I
met
with
Miss
annex
II
on
the
property
explained
to
her
what
the
violations
were,
what
was
going
to
need
to
be
done
to
be
brought
into
compliance
and
she
began
working
on
those
violations
on
January
25th.
They
conducted
a
rien
spec
ssin
on
inspection,
they're
still
debris
in
the
backyard,
including
broken
furniture
and
a
pile
of
yard
debris
and
a
pile
of
wood.
The
fence
along
the
east
side
and
west
sides
been
removed
so
that
violation
is
in
compliance.
A
number
of
pepper
trees
remain,
have
not
been
removed.
G
Another
inspection
check
the
property
and
they're
still
tire
stack
of
wood
cement
pieces,
broken
furniture
and
debris
inside
the
wooden
fenced-in
area.
The
pepper
trees
are
not
showing
any
regrowth
at
this
time,
I
believe
Miss,
Anne,
XE
had
stated
and
I
can't
remember.
All
of
our
conversations
that
they
may
have
been
treated
I'm
have
nothing
else
to
say
they
weren't.
G
So
at
that
time,
February
9th
we've
got
a
deferral
notice,
which
was
made
mailed
certified
and
first-class
at
the
attorneys
request,
and
we
began
to
postpone
these
board
cases
until
now
reached
out
to
miss
an
XE
on
February
14th.
To
let
her
know
the
only
violation
left
was
some
debris.
We
attempted
to
schedule
an
appointment
and
get
that
taken
care
of
on
February
15th
of
2018
and
she
wanted
an
appointment.
We
met
and
then
she
stated
on
that
date
that
it
was
ready
for
a
rien,
spec
ssin.
G
So
in
February
16th
I
was
asked
to
really
change.
I
noticed
that
the
two
tires
were
removed,
there's
still,
a
stack
of
old
would
submit
pieces
and
broken
furniture
still
on
the
property.
So
at
this
point
in
time,
still
not
in
compliance
and
I
added
some
new
photographs
at
that
point
in
time,
February
16th
we've
got
a
an
office
call
from
Mary
and
XE,
and
we
told
her
that
the
property
was
still
not
in
compliance
On,
February
20th.
She
said
the
property
was
ready
for
re-inspection
on
February
28th.
G
G
That's
that
called
Mary
to
let
her
know
the
cement
piece
pieces
needed,
remove
to
bring
the
property
and
compliance
also
reminded
her
to
call
as
soon
as
it
was
completed.
She
stated
she
would
have
the
cement
pieces
removed
and
will
call
when
completed
on
March
5th.
She
called
the
state.
The
property
is
ready
for
re-inspection
on
March
6.
It
was
in
compliance,
so
we
back
dated
to
March
5th,
because
that
was
the
date
she
called
to
said
it
was
in
compliance.
So,
finally,
on
March
5th,
the
property
was
in
compliance.
D
G
31St,
we
posted
the
property.
We
got
an
email
from
the
attorney
requesting
a
continuance,
so
we
did.
And
finally,
we
are
here
before
the
board
on
this
date,
after
some
continuances,
for
a
violation
of
8
40
duty
to
maintain
private
property
as
a
repeat
violator,
8,
52,
40.00,
the
UNAM
herbal
vehicles,
the
white
mercury
133
o3,
which
is
the
tree
exemptions
under
the
requirement
that
a
building
was
a
certificate
of
occupancy.
G
You
can't
have
any
invasive
species,
8
22,
which
is
the
accumulation
of
trash
and
36.0
three
fences,
walls
and
hedges,
which
require
that
you
maintain
your
fences.
Now
all
of
those
are
in
compliance,
so
she
was
a
repeat
violator,
as
I
stated,
for
the
previous
cases,
for
a
total
of
seventy
three
days
from
December
22nd
of
2017
until
March
5th
of
2018,
and
at
this
point
that's
all
I
have
for
the
board.
G
H
G
And
actually
I
think
I'm
going
to
stand
corrected
because
I
don't
believe
we
sent
out
a
notice
of
hearing
for
the
other
violations.
So
the
only
ones
were
concerned
with
are
8-14
8,
50,
8,
40
and
8.
52
are
the
only
ones
and
they're
in
compliance,
but
they're
the
only
ones
under
the
repeat
violator
status
I
won't
be
establishing
the
other
ones,
because
we
did
not
send
a
notice
of
hearing
stating
that
we're
going
to
go
forward
with
those.
H
A
P
P
G
G
P
G
P
G
P
P
P
P
P
P
P
P
G
P
G
Kind
of
half
and
half
it's
half
on
the
porch
half
in
the
backyard,
I
think
in
one
of
the
pictures.
You
can
see
it
kind
of
hanging
off
the
porch
but
Sir
with
all
due
respect.
That's
a
chair
that
was
one
of
a
multitude
of
issues.
We
can
take
the
chair
off
the
table
if
you'd
like
and
we
don't
have
to
even
issue
a
deal
with
it.
Let's
deal
with
the
pile
of
concrete
the
tires,
the
pile
of
wood,
all
the
stuff
inside
the
fenced-in
area
and
will
not
discuss
the
furniture
all.
P
P
B
P
G
G
G
P
G
P
G
P
B
P
G
G
Originally
852
also
encompasses
maintaining
your
lot
or
overgrowth,
so
as
I
stated
and
just
to
let
the
record
reflect
a
citation
was
never
issued
in
this.
So
mr.
Rock
continues
to
refer
to
that.
That's
not
what
occurs.
We
didn't
issue
a
citation.
A
Notice
of
Violation
was
issued.
It's
not
the
same
thing
so
once
that
error
is
cleared
up,
I
inspected
the
neighboring
property
and
discovered
numerous
violations
on
this
property.
G
So
stopping
at
that
sentence,
trash
and
debris
on
property,
so
I
covered
debris
which
is
under
8
the
definition
under
8
52,
okay,
so
there's
debris
on
the
property
once
the
trees
were
cleaned
up,
I
was
able
to
specifically
see
more
of
that,
and
that
was
noted,
but
because
I
covered
it
once
the
ordinance
doesn't
say,
one
specific
thing
has
to
be
removed,
it's
all
of
them
and
that's
how
that
ordinance
works.
So
it
just
so
happened
that
more
was
discovered
as
the
cleanup
progressed.
P
G
P
P
G
E
Madam
chair,
the
there's
been
an
objection
to
the
question
raised
about
the
trees
on
the
property.
The
objection
is
it's
not
relevant
to
the
case,
and
so
you
need
to
determine
whether
or
not
the
question
being
asked
by
mr.
Rock
relative
to
the
trees
is
relevant.
If
it
is
relevant,
then
you
need
to
overrule
the
objection.
Otherwise,
you
needed
to
sustain
the
objection
he
can
continue
on
with
his
line
of
questions.

It
five
yes,
75
is
428
to
our
Penn
Avenue
part
of
the
the
statute
that
the
city
uses
has
to
do
with
how
other
properties
are
affected
by
the
condition
of
her
property.
I
was
asked
to
look
at
the
various
properties
in
the
area
to
see
if
the
condition
of
lemons
tree
was
any
different
than
the
other
properties
across
that
existed
there.
J
G
Has
no
relevance
to
this
case.
We're
talking
about
for
39
to
make
I
will
I'll
make
this
easy.
The
rest
of
the
exhibits,
5
through
10,
aren't
relevant
to
this
property
and
I
would
object
to
all
5
through
10
and
I
have
no
objection
to
exhibit
number
1,
which
is
some
invoice
talking
about
cutting
down
pepper
trees.
I
have
no
problem.
I've
already
made
my
case
that
we're
not
talking
about
pepper
tree,
so
I
have
known
that
this.
A
J
E
So
let
me
just
make
sure
that
I've
got
this
clear
so
far,
so
we're
trying
to
keep
track
of
the
record.
Mr.
rock
so
number
one.
There
is
no
objection
to
number
one
coming
into
evidence
number
two.
There
was
no
objection
coming
in
evidence
number
three
and
four
you
discussed,
but
you
did
not
offer
them
yet
number
five
was
found
to
be
not
relevant
and
so
forth.
The
objection
was
sustained
now
you're,
offering
eight
and
nine.
Is
that
correct
for.
P
E
E
First
of
all,
I'm,
not
gonna,
I,
don't
agree
with
your
characterization.
You
handed
him
all
of
the
photographs
in
the
beginning.
He's
had
the
opportunity
to
review
them
and
he's
objected
to
them
based
upon
the
fact
that
you've
already
handed
them
to
him.
So
I
don't
agree
with
your
characterization,
but
so
madam
chair
I,
believe
what
I
heard
was
is
that
he
made
an
objection
for
five
through
ten,
because
these
are
properties
not
associated
with
this
particular
one.
In
other
words,
it's
not
for
30
a
nice
lemon
straight,
and
you
sustain
that
objection.
So
mr.
E
Rock,
under
the
law,
has
the
ability
to
present
the
other.
These
exhibits
five
through
ten
he's
what
we
call
form
them
so
that
if
he
appeals
this
decision
and
the
circuit
court
that
he
appeals
to,
determines
that
the
board
has
made
a
mistake
and
not
allowing
these
pieces
of
evidence
in
that
he
could
use
that
in
part
of
his
appeal.
So
that's
what
he's
doing
now
so
I
guess
these
exhibits
are
coming
down
now
that
you're
seeing
so
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
proffer.
Then
six
seven
and
ten
you've
already
proffered
eight
and
nine.
E
G
J
P
E
P
P
E
My
suggestion
to
you
and
my
advice
to
you
is
that
you
allow
that
testimony
to
move
forward
here,
the
testimony
and
you
make
determination
in
your
own
mind,
whatever
probative
value,
that
it
has
and
then
you
we
can
avoid
that
being
some
type
of
appellate,
some
type
of
error
on
the
part
of
the
board,
so
just
give
it
whatever
weight
that
you
feel
is
appropriate
based
upon
I
assume.
Mr.
Rock
is
going
to
make
a
an
argument
in
his
summary
that
the
city
is
selectively
enforcing
the
code
against
his
client.
E
P
J
Took
the
photographs
the
officer
Gaston
had
described
his
review
of
the
issues
with
lemon
street
from
the
alley,
because
all
the
items
that
he
described
were
not
visible
from
the
alley.
So
obviously
he
had
to
go
through
the
alley,
either
from
the
east
or
the
west
side
to
get
to
the
property
which
is
in
the
middle
of
the
street.
J
So
therefore,
as
in
reflecting
the
statute,
whether
or
not
the
other
properties
were
in
similar
condition
and
if
lemon
Street
was
such
a
difference
in
condition
that
it
should
be
fine
for
creating
loss
of
value
to
the
properties
nearby.
So
doing
that
again,
this
is
428.
Number
six
is
a,
but
six
is
again
428.
P
J
The
lemons
treat
alley
is
a
unkept
alley
by
the
city.
It
has
large
divots
of
asphalt.
You
cannot
drive
across
it
quickly
because
it
hasn't
been
maintained
for
a
number
of
years.
It
may
have
to
do
with
it
being
perhaps
the
original
Street
in
Tarpon
the
Vincennes
funeral
home,
where
the
original
county
commissioners,
and
so
that
might
explain
why
the
alley
doesn't
inform
to
the
actual
Pinellas
records,
but
pretty
much.
Every
property
is
either
overgrown
into
the
alley
of
the
city
or
has
debris
in
the
back
or
has
unkept
fences,
there's
no
one.
P
J
That
is
the
area
behind
460,
where
the
cars
that
I
previously
described
in
exhibit
number
nine
have
been
kept
for
a
large
amount
of
time
on
Lemon
Street
behind
there
is
a
area
that
is
not
properly
draining,
there's
a
large
tree
and
next
to
the
tree
in
the
photo.
There
are
two
boats
that
are
not
only
unregistered
and
licensed,
but
don't
even
have
a
tag
number
at
all
and
that
is
at
460
Lemon
Street.
They.
H
J
In
terms
of
eight
nine
and
ten,
even
though
it's
across
the
street
from
lemon,
it's
a
road
that
I
regularly
take
in
Tarpon
Springs,
so
there
are
no
photos
because
I
wasn't
asked
to
be
a
part
of
this
case
at
that
time.
So
I
wasn't
asked
to
take
the
photos.
I
can
describe
specifically
about
460
with
the
vehicles
in
the
front.
I
did
not
observe
the
boat
in
the
back
of
460
at
any
time.
Prior
I
did
not
go
through
the
alley.
It's
like
I,
said
a
broken
down
alley.
J
H
J
M
M
E
But
he
basically
is
is
making
them
we're
gonna
label
them,
but
you
won't
be
able
to
see
them
as
evidence
and
he's
putting
them
in
the
record
so
that
the
appellate
level
for
if
he
appeals
the
decision,
will
have
that
information
available,
determine
whether
or
not
that's
a
mistake
that
was
made
by
the
board
and
I
receiving
so
he's
perfecting.
The
record
is
what
the
lawyers
call
it.
A
J
A
J
G
So
mr.
Moore
thesis
I
appreciate
you
submitting
pictures
of
the
property
being
in
compliance
a
month
after
was
in
compliance,
quick
question
about
exhibit
number
nine
since
I've
already
objected
to
these,
but
you
were
allowed
to
testify
to
them
do
what
kind
of
property
that
is
in
number
nine
what
it's
owned!
I'm.
G
D
E
J
Sure
mr.
gasm
well
think
otherwise,
but
I've
done
much
things
for
law
enforcement
along
the
years
along
the
way
and
I,
don't
believe
mr.
gas,
and
he
has
the
capacity
based
on
your
rules
to
prefer
evidence.
I,
don't
know
that
he
can
cross-examine
and
I'm
not
going
to
submit
that.
You
can
ask
the
board
to
ask
the
questions.
The
board
can
ask
perhaps
but
I,
you
know
I
believe
he's
committing
a
felony,
because
the
okay.
E

A
E
P
O
O
The
bill
that
I
had
for
for
39s
lemon
Street
when
the
mr.
Gaston
told
me
about
the
the
problem
there
I
called
all
the
way
up
tree
service.
They
charged
me
three
thousand
dollars
to
trim
it
and,
with
the
reason
I
bought
the
house
when
my
mother
was
alive,
then,
as
I
liked
of
the
landscaping
I
thought.
P
D
P
O
Their
people
go
down
the
back
driveway
of
this
lemon
Street
and
they
throw
tires
they
throw
metal.
They
throw
bricks
stones
any
kind
of
junk
they
because
I
had
a
gate,
a
brand-new
gate.
It
cost
over
a
thousand
dollars.
When
we
purchased
the
house
in
the
back
and
some
driver,
not
my
tenants,
they're
nice
people,
they
didn't
even
have
a
car
bash
the
gate.
O
P
O
O
P
O
G
O
G
O
G
E
A
A
N
E
G
Just
briefly,
I
covered
I
started
this
case.
I
and
I
realized.
I
objected.
The
only
reason
I'm
discussing
trees
is
because
the
trees
were
cleaned
up
which
allowed
other
things
to
be
seen.
Originally,
in
the
very
beginning,
back
in
December,
you
can
see
in
the
photographs
there
was
debris.
Debris
is
unused
material,
those
metal
laying
there
there's
a
shopping
cart.
G
The
car
was
a
different
point
and
then
the
even
even
my
pictures
that
were
taken
December
22nd,
you
can
see
items
leaning
up
against
the
wooden
fence
near
the
wrought
iron
gate
that
it
even
appear
to
be
a
piece
of
concrete,
which
is
very
similar
to
what
shows
up.
In
the
later
photographs,
dated
February
7th.
G
Briefly
touching
on
selective
enforcement,
we
were
all
present
for
their
neighbors,
who
I
opened
a
case
on.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
opened
the
case
on
based
on
Marianne
X's
property,
which
was
based
on
trees
being
dumped
on
the
property
to
the
east
of
her
that
got
cleaned
up.
It
didn't
come
to
code
board.
I
then
had
the
property
to
the
north
written
up,
so
they
could
get
their
trees
and
debris
that
were
extending
into
the
alleyway.
G
Also
cleaned
up
selective
enforcement
I
realize
there
are
some
court
cases
there
for
that,
but
I
think
we've
pretty
well
established
even
considering
this
board
just
heard
the
neighboring
property.
So
it's
kind
of
interesting
that
I'm,
so
two
billion
forcing
so
that's
covered,
there's
debris
on
the
property.
It's
been
cleaned
up.
It
was
in
violation
for
73
days,
her
own
clean
up
guys.
Testimony
puts
it
into
I.
G
Believe
February
was
when
he
first
got
out
her
I'm
sorry,
January
5th
I
believe,
is
what
he
testified
to
so
and
he's
not
even
sure
of
the
dates
exhibit
number
one
that
was
before
the
board.
Regarding
the
trees
being
cut
down.
You
can
clearly
tell
the
date
that
was
written
on.
It
is
different
than
the
rest
of
handwriting
I'm.
Not
a
handwriting
expert
I'll
say
that
now,
but
it
doesn't
have
to
be
a
handwriting
expert
to
see
that
the
ink
is
different
than
the
other
rest
of
it.
G
So
the
dates
questionable
on
that,
but
I
have
no
objection
to
that,
because
I've
taken
trees
off
of
it.
So
we're
here
to
discuss
debris,
Maryann,
AXI
stated
she's
called
her
person
out
numerous
times
to
clean
up
debris
off
the
property
they
proffered
photographs
or
they
put
voted
their
own
photographs
into
evidence
shown
it's
in
compliance.
I
have
no
argument
with
that.
I
stated
it
was
in
compliance
was
out
of
compliance
for
73
days.
She
had
prior
cases
for
other
properties
that
she
owned,
that
put
her
in
violation,
including
this
property.
G
So
under
the
statute
under
our
ordinance,
she's,
a
repeat
violator
for
73
days-
and
that's
basically
sum
and
substance
of
this
case
is
a
violation
of
a
party
in
violation
of
8
52.
The
umbrella
of
debris
is
large
and
covers
numerous
things.
The
fact
that
I
see
one
thing
if
that
violations,
if
things
are
done
to
the
property
that
present
other
items
of
debris,
they
are
still
the
violation,
the
violation
still
isn't
fixed.
G
You
know
so
just
because
we
don't
have
to
specify,
in
the
notice
of
violation,
pick
up
47
pieces
of
cement,
its
debris
as
defined
below
to
be
cleaned
up.
So
that's
what
was
done.
Unfortunately,
as
the
cleanup
occurred,
more
debris
appeared
and
and
that's
the
situation
we're
in
and
it
took
73
days
for
the
property
to
finally
get
cleaned
up,
as
I
stated
in
regards
to
all
the
other
properties,
they're.
G
More
than
welcome
to
calling
code
cases
I'll
be
more
than
happy
to
go
out
and
investigate
them,
primarily,
as
this
boards
heard
numerous
times,
I'm
reactive
than
proactive.
The
majority
of
my
case
has
come
from
and
in
this
case
I
wrote
up
neighboring
properties
because
of
the
violations
on
her
property.
So
and
that's
all
I
have
at
this
point.
Madam.
E
Chair
I
need
to
correct
my
statement
earlier
cuz.
You
know
this
is
a
repeat
violation.
So
there
is
this,
isn't
separated
into
two
motions
like
an
initial
violation,
so
I
just
want
to
make
that
clear
before
we
hear
the
summary
argument
and
closing
for
mr.
Rock
that
your
normal
process
is
to
determine
whether
the
violation
exists.
If
it's
a
repeat
when
the
start
date
would
be,
if
it's
a
repeat
how
long
it
went,
what
the
dollar
amount
of
the
fine
is,
so
I
apologize
them.
E
D
H
E
Does
not
have
anything
to
do
with
the
dollar
amount
of
the
prior
fine.
You
need
to
determine
based
upon
the
testimony
at
evidence
that
you've
heard
today
and
take
him
to
consider
the
three
things
that
are
required
by
the
statute,
whether
she's
been
cited
before
the
gravity,
the
violation
and
what
she's
done
to
bring
the
property
into
compliance.
Those
are
the
three
factors
you
use
to
determine
under
the
state
statute
as
to
the
value
of
the
fine
0
to
$500
a
day.
That's
that
your
parameters,
so
with
that
in
mind,
we
should
let
mr.
P
Excuse
me
look
at
the
violation
notice,
it
doesn't
say
notice
of
repeat
violation.
It
says
notice
of
repeat
violate
or
officer.
Gasset
is
trying
to
change
his
terminology
somewhat.
In
fact,
he
said
well,
she
owns
several
properties
and
a
conviction
on
one
or
a
finding
of
nuisance
on
one
is
a
finding
of
nuisance
on
all,
but
essentially
that's
not
what
the
law
says:
it's
limited
to
each
piece
of
property,
so
it's
a
notice
of
repeat
violation
state
back
correctly.
P
Secondly,
there
has
been
evidence
undisputed
evidence
from
Chris
and
from
Marian
AXI,
that
this
property
has
had
property
dumped
on
it.
Since
the
alleged
original
violations
that
occurred
on
December
22nd,
you
have
all
the
photographs
there
officer
gassen
is
now
stating
well
I.
Guess
I
couldn't
see
some
of
them
all.
In
fact,
he
even
saw
new
ones
that
occurred
took
photographs
on
February
7th.
Again
they
certainly
would
have
been
visible
on
December.
P
Excuse
me
on
January
10th,
had
they
not
been
recently
dumped,
so
I'm
just
saying
that
my
clients,
property
is
subject
to
having
property
on
it
dumped.
If
you
look
at
the
shed
without
a
roof,
that
has
a
photograph
of
tires,
those
would
have
just
been
would
have
been
invisible
would
have
been
visible
on
December
22nd.
Had
they
been
there
on
December
22nd
visit
nexi
has
gone
to
the
trouble
to
have
her
maintenance
man
remove
all
the
junk
that
she
periodically
finds
has
been
dumped
on
her
property.
P
I
am
suggesting
that
at
most,
the
property
could
have
been
in
violation
through
missing
AXYZ
ownership
through
the
end
of
December
2017,
when
she
had
the
the
invoice
for
the
the
trees,
sustained
and
and
removed,
and
she
spent
paid
three
thousand
dollars
now.
The
other
violations
were
new
violations
that
there
you
know
what
we
just
will
just
add
it
on.
We
just
add
it
on,
and
we
won't
even
notify
you
of
any
new
alleged
violations,
we'll
just
say
you're,
not
in
compliance
you're,
not
in
compliance.
P
We've
got
new
violations
that
are
occurring,
that
we
have
that
I
suggest
we
have
proven
to
have
established
after
the
alleged
code.
Eight
violation
when
mrs.
annex
II
called
the
city
and
and
that
record
is
already
in
I-
think
it
was
like
January
4th
or
5th.
She
called
the
city
and
asked
to
have
it
read
spected
the
property
was
compliant.
P
When
the
guy
went
out
on
the
10th
to
re-inspect,
he
noticed
some
other
violations
that
were
there
and
they
were
dumped
and
the
gentleman
Chris
Conrad
cleaned
them
up
and-
and
you
know
every
time,
a
person
dumps
something
on
a
person's
property
that
doesn't
create
a
violation.
It's
not
creating
a
nuisance
because
it
none
of
the
property
has
been
adjacent.
Property
is
in
any
way
shape
or
form
affected.
So
I'm
suggesting
to
you
that
through
January
5th,
you
could
find
a
repeat
violation.
P
E
One
thing
I
wanted
I
wanted
to
tell
you
about
the
law
before
we
do
that.
Mr.
Rock
incorrectly
cited
the
law
relative
to
repeat
violation
under
Florida
statute
and
under
the
city's
code,
especially
code
section
2-1,
sixty
a
repeat
violation:
I'm,
just
going
to
read
the
definition,
a
violation
of
a
provision
of
a
code
or
ordinance
by
a
person
whom
the
board
has
previously
found
that
violated
the
same
provision
within
five
years,
part
of
the
violation
there's
no
requirement
to
be
associated
with
any
particular
property.
It's
the
person
and
the
code.
E
C
The
motion
and
moved
that,
based
on
the
testimony,
evidence
facts
presented
in
law
that
the
Nixa
T
Group
LLC,
was
in
violation
of
sections
8,
40
and
8
52
of
the
tarpon
spring
city
code
from
the
initial
date
of
1220
to
2017
until
the
compliance
date
of
3/5
2018
and
a
fine
of

In

the
city

So

status,
is

840
and
852,
exhibit

All

given

case,
summary

as
any

emails,
exhibit

posting
and
a
copy
of
the
sign.
An
exhibit

G
All
the
photographs
and
exhibits
that
were
given
to
the
violator
exact
copies
of
what's
being
presented
to
this
board.
All
my
notices
were
mailed
to
the
property
owner
of
record
is
determined
by
the
Pinellas
County
property
appraiser
and
tax
collectors
database,
and
madam
chairman
I,
believe
you
already
have
that.
Please
accept
all
these
into
the
record
as
evidence.
G
This
case
started:
January
16th
2018,
my
initial
inspect
inspection
was
a
result
of
being
called
to
the
property
across
the
street
for
a
complaint
and
I
noticed
violations
on
this
property.
Subsequent
to
that
I
noticed
there
were
three
boats
on
the
property
that
appeared
inoperative
and
unused.
There
was
one
old
RV,
which
also
appears
unused
and
a
jetski
which
appears
unused.
This
is
residential
property.
Also,
the
front
window
is
broken
and
needs
to
be
replaced.
G
We
received
a
phone
call
requesting
pictures
of
the
property
for
439
Lemon
Street
in
this
property
to
be
picked
up
by
her
attorney
on
January
26.
The
sign
was
posted
in
an
affidavit
of
posting
was
signed.
January
26th.
We
received
a
phone
call
from
Mary
asking
what
the
problem
with
the
van
of
the
RV
was
because
it
is
licensed
and
tagged
I
emailed
officer
gassen
with
a
question.
He
called
back
letting
her
know
that
what
the
problem
was
as
I've
discussed
numerous
times.
The
definition
of
debris
is
unused
equipment
which
also
includes
Motor
Vehicles.
G
So
that
was
the
ordinance
that
was
cited
on
February
9th.
We
got
a
deferral
notice
because,
as
the
other
case,
I
stated,
we
continue
didn't
tell
this
code
bored
February
14th.
We
had
an
office,
our
office
called
Mary,
Ann
X,
a
reminder
that
Winnebago
was
the
only
violation
left.
They
had
taken
care
of
the
boats,
two
of
them
were
removed.
One
of
them
was
currently
tagged,
the
put
air
in
the
tires
and
he
states
he
being
the
tenant
states
it.
He
does
use
that
boat.
So
it
doesn't
know
it
no
longer
appears
to
be
unused.
G
G
Basically,
all
he
had
to
do
is
remove
it
from
the
property
for
it
to
be
in
compliance
under
that
definition,
he's
stating
it
was
removed.
On
February
19th
when
we
received
a
phone
call
on
the
20th
I
conducted
a
reinfection
on
February
22nd
and
the
RV
was
removed,
and
so
the
property
was
placed
into
compliance
and
it
was
placed
into
compliance.
As
I
stated,
based
on
the
date
we
were
told
the
RV
was
removed,
so
the
benefit
went
to
them
on
February,
19th
posted
the
property
on
March
31st,
and
then
we
got
the
continuance
request.
G
I
then
posted
the
property
again
for
the
deferral
for
this
today
you
know,
and
so
needless
to
say,
we've
had
numerous
contact.
All
the
violations
are
currently
complied.
They
were
out
of
compliance
for
a
period
of
34
days,
as
I
stated
from
January
16th
to
February
19th,
and
they
deal
with
a
40
and
a
52,
and
at
this
point
that's
all
I
have.
A
G
P
G
G
I
didn't
and
the
upside
to
this
is
there's
a
beautiful
thing
on
my
camera
called
zoom.
So
I
can
stand
at
the
entrance
where
the
sidewalk
is
in
between
the
bushes
on
the
city.
Sidewalk
and
I
can
zoom
in
and
take
a
great
picture
of
it
without
entering.
But
with
that
being
said,
I
met
with
the
tenant
while
I
was
there,
and
he
brought
me
around
to
the
side
to
talk
about
the
boat.
P
P
P
A
E
P
P
P
P
G
P
E
E
E
A
P
P
G
G
Have
a
raven
from
me:
would
you
read
it?
The
definition
shall
include,
but
not
limited
to
one
or
more
of
the
following
discarded
household
items
inoperative
or
abandoned
machinery,
motor
vehicles,
boats,
trailers
or
household
appliances.
If
you
want
I
can
go
through
all
the
including,
but
not
limited
to
which
doesn't
cover
anything
else.
So,
in
sum
and
substance,
the
abandon
machinery
inoperative
inoperative,
not
operating
motor
vehicles,
boats
and
trailers.
So
that's
under
the
definition
of
852.
That's
actually
851!
That's
the
definition
of
debris
and
852
refers
to.
If
you
want
alright.
G
P
G
G
M
G
G
And
I've
been
on
that
property
numerous
times.
We've
had
calls
for
service
there,
so
between
her
place
on
the
backside
off
ADA
Street,
which
I
think
is
26
8a
street
we've
had
numerous
calls
for
service.
We've
been
back
and
through
there
that
RVs
been
there
for
I
know
for
a
fact
greater
than
one
year
and
have.
G
O
O
P
O
Big
RV,
that
was
there,
was
from
Andy
who
had
a
very
bad
heart
attack.
He
was
my
tenant
for
many,
maybe
like
eight
years
nine
years
and
he
had
moved
to
the
west.
I
know
I,
think
it's
the
west
coast
I'm
not
sure
by
well
by
Daytona,
and
he
was
coming
back
to
fix
it
and
I
said
no
problem
come
as
soon
as
you
can,
because
we
need
to
you,
know,
get
it.
I
didn't
have
key
or
anything
to
it
and.
P
O
P
M
O
P
O
O
He
left
maybe
a
few
months
before
that
vehicle.
He
got
sick
when
he
had
to
go
visit.
Another
his
mother,
his
brother
I,
don't
know
somebody
on
the
west
coast
and
he
ended
up
staying
there
by
date.
Don't
I'm
not
sure
where
it
is.
Okay,
I
have
this
phone
number
at
the
house,
I!
Don't
in
my
book,
I!
Don't
have
it
here
sure.
G
Basically,
like
I
stated,
I
did
the
inspection.
There
was
a
the
jet
ski
that
was
an
operative
which
defined
his
debris.
It
was
moved
to
the
boats
were
removed,
I
and
then
the
bigger
boat.
He
got
back
into
a
working
condition
because
we
discussed
that
the
RV
obviously
was
inoperative
because
it
took
a
significant
amount
of
work
to
get
it
running,
to
get
it
off
of
the
property.
So
it
fell
well
right
well
into
the
definition
of
a
debris
under
851.
G
So
for
the
period
of
time
from
January,
I'm,
sorry,
January,
16th
to
February
19th
for
the
34
days,
the
RV
was
there,
it
was
inoperative.
It
is
defined
as
debris
as
far
as
all
the
other
vehicles
and
everything
I
have
no
contention
that
they
were
registered.
They
were
removed
the
big
boat
he
put
tags
on.
He
aired
up
the
tires.
He
cleaned
it
up.
He
said
he
was
gonna,
go
out
and
use
it.
So
at
that
point
in
time
it's
not
abandoned.
It's
not
inoperative
because
he's
using
it,
the
other
ones
were
gone.
G
I,
don't
know
at
what
time
they
were
gone,
but
it's
a
moot
point
they're
going.
So
we
were
dealing
with
the
RV
still
being
there
and,
as
I
stated,
took
a
significant
amount
of
work
for
the
owner,
so
we
got
numerous
phone
calls
from
them
to
get
that
thing
running
and
get
it
out
of.
There
must
have
been
an
issue
because
we
got
it
out
of
there
once
we
sent
the
notice.
So
that's
all
I
have
it
this
time.
A
D
C
O
O
C
E
C
A
C
C
C
C
C
C
A
A
A
C
Don't
even
know
what
to
say
that
this
is
a
huge
fine
and
it
it's.
It
I
believe
what
what
they
wrote
to
us.
I,
don't
see.
It
necessarily
meets
our
criteria
that
there's
a
hardship
except
they
probably
can't
develop.
The
property
is
what
they're
saying
so
that
may
well
be
classified
as
a
hardship.
I
mean
that's
a
huge
fine.
That.
C
C
C
A
E
The
buyer
can
buy
it
subject
for
the
liens
and
then
they
try
to
negotiate
a
deal
with
the
city
and
it
happens
every
single
day,
and
so
that
is
evidently
what
is
happening
here,
because
if
this
property
owner
bought
the
property,
they
would
have
been
a
title
search
and
they
would
have
seen
the
lien.
So
there
they're
basically.
E
You
know
bleeding
you
and
I
would
remind
you
that
I'll
just
read
the
rule
to
you,
so
everybody
understands
the
rule
again,
because
I
think
that
would
be
and
I'm
reading
from
your
rules
that
have
been
in
effect
for
25
years
after
fine,
it's
rule,
5
section
4
after
fine
has
been
imposed
by
the
board
and
within
60
days
after
the
violation
is
brought
into
compliance.
A
violator
may
petition
for
reconsideration
of
a
fine.
E
The
petition
must
be
in
writing
signed
by
the
violator
and
include
a
copy
of
the
affidavit
of
compliance
executed
by
that
code
inspector.
The
petition
must
include
conclusive
evidence
showing
extreme
or
undue
hardship
and
the
payment
of
the
fine
and
preventing
the
violator
to
come
into
compliance
within
a
time
period
established
by
the
board's
order.
The
board
secretary
shall
schedule
the
petition
to
be
considered
and
the
board
shall
make
its
determination
based
solely
upon
the
written
petition.
The
board
may
request
information
from
the
code
inspector.
E
The
board
secretary
shall
notify
the
violator
by
regular
mail
of
the
determination
made
by
the
board
no
petition
for
the
reduction
of
a
fine
will
be
considered
prior
to
the
board's
acceptance
of
an
affidavit
of
compliance.
What
you
did
today
by
the
way
under
no
circumstances,
may
the
amount
of
the
fine
be
reduced
below
the
cost
of
the
action.
Under
no
circumstances
may
the
amount
of
the
fine
be
reduced
once
a
foreclosure
action
is
instituted.
Additionally,
under
no
circumstances
may
the
amount
of
the
fine
for
a
repeat
violation
be
reduced.
C
E
What
normally
happens
is
there
would
be
a
an
offer
of
settlement
and
it
would
come
to
the
City
Attorney's
office.
The
City
Attorney's
office
would
make
a
recommendation
based
upon
discussion
with
city
staff
as
to
what
we
believe
would
be
a
reasonable
settlement,
and
if
the
City
Commission
authorizes
the
settlement,
then
it
would
be
reduced
based
upon
that
offer
of
settlement.
Okay.
So
there
isn't.
There
is
another
Avenue.
Thank
you.

A
B
A
E
E
Miss
a
neck,
see
through
her
lawyer,
filed
a
lawsuit
against
the
city
of
Tarpon
Springs,
alleging
failure
to
peruse
public
records
and
also
failure
to
allow
him
some
discovery
and
in
the
code
enforcement
cases
you've
already
heard
today.
They
had
specifically
asked
to
take
the
deposition
of
officer.
Gaston
I've
told
mr.
Rock
that
he
has
no
legal
right
to
take
the
deposition
mr.
gassen
and
he
immediately
filed
the
lawsuit
against
the
city
because
of
the
fact
that
there's
allegations
that
public
records
have
not
been
provided.
E
The
case
is
sped
up
very
quickly
and
that's
what
happened
here
within
the
last
week
or
so
ten
days
there
was
a
hearing
before
the
judge.
In
the
case,
each
side
had
filed
motions
for
summary
judgment
asking
the
the
court
to
enter
judgment
in
their
favor.
In
this
14
or
15
page
long
order
base.
Sickly
says
the
city
was
absolutely
right
and
not
producing
the
documents
because
of
the
fact
that
mr.
rocks
client
failed
to
pay
for
the
production
of
those
documents,
and
the
city
was
absolutely
correct
and
not
allowing
mr.
E
Gowens
deposition
to
be
taken
because
it's
not
provided
for
under
the
law.
So
it
was
a
complete
win
for
the
city.
I'm
very
proud
of
my
associate
robert
ashton
Felder,
and
my
partner
J
Daniel
for
handling
this
thing
so
quickly.
In
the
last
couple
of
weeks
they
did
an
excellent
job,
but
that's
what
this
order
is
on
your
desk
for
to
let
you
know
that
the
city
was
did
well.
The
city
did
for
bail
more
than
likely.
E
The
case
is
going
to
be
appealed
if
it
is
appealed,
we're
gonna
be
handling
that
too
and
I'll
bring
you
back
updates
to
let
you
know
you
know
what
is
happening
in
that,
but
it's
an
interesting
read
if
you
take
the
time
to
do
it
and
if
you
have
any
questions
about
it
after
you've,
read
it
in
its
entirety
and
be
happy
to
answer
them
for
you.
So.
M
H
E
Not
file
a
lawsuit
against
the
city,
I'm
saying
that
this
boat
and
code
enforcement
board
and
not
have
the
authority
to
hear
cases,
but
I
will
tell
you.
The
statute
is
very,
very
clear,
and
that
says
it's
whenever
possible
to
have
seats
filled
by
people
with
particular
professional
backgrounds,
and
you
know
that
would
be
great
in
a
perfect
scenario.
But
what
happens
here
is
is
that
people
that
want
to
volunteer
their
time?
E
Like
the
seven
of
you,
you
may
not
necessarily
have
that
background
and
I
can
tell
you
in
my
almost
thirty
years
of
doing
this.
I've
never
seen
a
city
have
that
set
up
and
they're
cutting
for
support,
even
though
the
statute
says
that
that's
what
it's
supposed
to
be.
So
that's
why
that
language
is
in
there
whenever
possible.
So
you
guys
do
it
you're
doing
a
great
job
and
don't
don't
be
concerned
when
people
are
lawyers,
attempt
these
little
legal
maneuvers
to
discredit
what
you're
doing
and
your
qualifications
you're
absolutely
qualified
to
be
here.
You're.
A
Last
month,
a
violators
attorney
asked
that
this
code
of
forcement
board
be
disqualified,
because
there
wasn't
an
architect
and
engineer
a
general
contractor
on
the
board
sitting
on
this
board.
For
as
long
as
some
of
us
have
I've
realized
that
common
sense
goes
a
long
way.
We
are
all
volunteers
chosen
by
our
tarp
and
spring
city.
