[*A portion of this meeting is without video*]

[CALL TO ORDER]

[00:00:03]

JUNE 21ST, 2023.

IT'S APPROXIMATELY 1:16 P.M..

APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY. WE HAVE SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES.

GENERAL PROCEDURE IS, IS THAT THE APPLICANT WILL COME FORWARD AND PRESENT THEIR CASE FOR THE REDUCTION OF.

THE CODE ENFORCEMENT FINES WERE IN THE AMOUNT.

AND THEN THE CITY WILL THEN PRESENT THEIR CASE OR THEIR POSITION ON THE REQUEST, AND THEN THE APPLICANT WILL THEN HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO RESPOND TO THE CITY'S PRESENTATION.

AT THIS POINT, I'LL TURN IT OVER TO THE CLERK TO SWEAR IN THE WITNESSES.

YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE TESTIMONY TODAY.

WILL YOU PLEASE STAND AND RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? UM. SO PLEASE STAND, SIR.

YOU CAN. LET ME PREFACE SOMETHING.

THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL A QUASI JUDICIAL HEARING.

SO IN ORDER TO GET THE RELIEF THAT YOU'RE REQUESTING, SOMEONE HAS TO PRESENT THE CASE UNDER OATH FOR PURPOSES OF THE REQUEST.

DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU GOD? THANK YOU. YOU MAY BE SEATED.

[PETITION FOR RELIEF]

A FIRST CASE TO BE HEARD TODAY IS KB 2302822 AT 757 DONOGHUE AVENUE NORTHWEST.

AND THE PETITIONER IS HERE.

GOOD AFTERNOON. HOW ARE YOU? COULD YOU PLEASE IDENTIFY YOURSELF FOR THE RECORD AND YOUR ADDRESS, PLEASE? MY NAME IS DARNELL DODARD.

ADDRESS 757.

DOMINO AVENUE, PALM BAY, FLORIDA.

32 907.

YOU PROCEED WITH YOUR REQUEST? OKAY. I'M HERE TO REQUEST THE RELIEF OF THE FINES AND LIENS ON THE PROPERTY.

THERE WAS A RECREATIONAL VEHICLE, A BOAT THERE, AND I GUESS THE CITY HAD POSSIBLY BEEN SENDING ME DOCUMENTS OR A NOTIFICATION.

WE HAD SWITCHED THE BUSINESS ADDRESS TO A P.O.

BOX AND DID NOT RECOGNIZE SOME OF THE INCOMING MAIL.

I HAVE SINCE RELIEVED THE ISSUE AND THERE THE PROPERTY IS CLEANED UP AND BROUGHT TO CODE AND STANDARDS.

EVER MADE AWARE OF THE PROCEEDING BEFORE BEFORE THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD.

THE OF TODAY.

CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD. THE BOARD THAT IMPOSED THE FINES.

SO ARE THE PROCEEDINGS THAT WERE SENT TO THE ADDRESS AT THAT GIVEN TIME THEY HAD BEEN SENDING THOSE NOTIFICATIONS.

BUT WE DID SWITCH THE FOR ALL MAILING PURPOSES TO A P.O.

BOX. SO I DID NOT SEE THE ACTUAL NOTIFICATION TWO MONTHS LATER.

AND THEN WHEN I WAS PRIVY TO IT, YOU KNOW, I MADE SURE I TOOK CARE OF THE ISSUE.

ANYTHING ELSE AT THIS TIME. THAT'S ABOUT IT.

AND WHAT'S THIS? WHAT'S THIS? IDENTIFY YOURSELF, PLEASE.

SABRINA PERKINS, CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE CITY HAS NO OBJECTION IN A REDUCTION OF THE LANE WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS ARE COLLECTED, WHICH IS $750.

THE CITY IS ALSO ASKING FOR 14% OF THE AMOUNT OF $13,099.47.

UM, WHICH A TOTAL WOULD BE $2,583.93.

OKAY. THAT'S THE CITY'S POSITION.

DO YOU HAVE A RESPONSE TO THE CITY'S POSITION? I DO. SO THE BOAT THAT WAS LOCATED ON THE PROPERTY ADDRESS, THERE'S ABOUT TEN OTHER BOATS ON THAT ADDRESS.

AND I DID LOOK UP. NOBODY ELSE HAS ANY LIENS LIKE THE ONES THAT WERE PLACED ON THE PROPERTY.

AND ONCE I WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS, I DID TAKE CARE OF IT.

I'M ASKING TO HAVE THE FULL RELIEF FINE BECAUSE THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS BOATS AND NOBODY HAS LIENS AND THEY'VE HAD THEM THERE FOR OVER FIVE YEARS.

DID NOT KNOW THAT THE RECREATIONAL VEHICLE WAS AN ISSUE.

AND HAD I DID, I WOULD HAVE MADE SURE IT WAS NOT THERE.

IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ONCE YOU ARE NOTIFIED OF THE BOAT THAT YOU MOVE THE BOAT ACROSS THE STREET ONTO A VACANT LOT.

THAT'S PART OF THE ISSUES THAT WE THE CITY, ENDED UP HAVING TO BRING IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO TAG THAT.

SO THERE'S OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS, TOO, THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF PEOPLE THAT HAD TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS CASE.

[00:05:04]

SO THERE WAS A CODE ENFORCER THAT WAS BEING ACTUALLY QUITE AGGRESSIVE.

AND I DID BRING IT UP DOWN TO THE CODE ENFORCEMENT.

I MADE IT VERY CLEAR TO HER THAT THE BOAT ACROSS THE STREET IS NOT OUR BOAT.

IT HAPPENED TO BE THE SAME EXACT BOAT AND COLOR.

AND I GAVE HER PICTURES AND PROOF OF TIME AND DATE WHEN BOTH BOATS WERE ACTUALLY LOCATED THERE AT THE SAME TIME.

SO WHAT SHE WAS KIND OF IMPLYING, I TRIED TO EXPLAIN IT TO HER.

THEN SHE TOOK IT A STEP FURTHER AND CALLED LAW ENFORCEMENT, WHICH I HAPPEN TO KNOW.

AND THE OFFICERS DID SEE THAT BOAT IN THERE AND IT'S BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME.

SO NOT ONLY DID I MAKE SURE I CALLED THE DISPOSAL SERVICE FOR THE BOAT ACROSS THE STREET, I ALSO MOVED MINE AND THEY WERE NOT IN THE SAME TIME FRAME.

SO THERE WAS NEVER THAT.

THAT WAS NEVER ACTUALLY THE ISSUE.

BUT THE POD REMAINED THERE FOR QUITE A BIT.

THE POD WAS MOVED BEFORE BOTH OF THOSE.

WHEN I REMOVED THE POD IS WHEN THE CODE ENFORCER PROCEEDED WITH THE BOAT.

AND THEN SHE SAID, I DIDN'T MOVE THE BOAT, I JUST MOVED IT ACROSS THE STREET.

AND I SHOWED HER THE PICTURES AND KIND OF DROVE OFF.

WHEN IN RELATION TO YOU ACTUALLY OBTAINING NOTICE OF THE FACT A VIOLATION EXISTED? DID THE BOAT GET MOVED? SO ONCE I REALIZED THAT THOSE VIOLATIONS HAD NOT BEEN GOING TO THE P.O.

BOX AND I WAS ABLE TO GET ACCESS TO THOSE, AS SOON AS I WAS MADE AWARE, I MOVED THE BOAT.

AND THEN IS WHEN THE CODE WHEN I CONTACT THE CODE ENFORCER.

AND SHE SAID, NO, I MOVED IT ACROSS THE STREET.

I'M LIKE, IF YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE ME A VIOLATION FOR A SEPARATE VEHICLE, THAT THAT WOULD BE A SEPARATE CASE.

BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT I DID.

BUT THE CODE AND THAT'S NOT REALLY MY QUESTION.

MY QUESTION IS WHEN HOW LONG AFTER YOU RECEIVED THE NOTICE DID YOU MOVE THE BOAT? AS SOON AS I KNEW THE NOTIFICATION, I MOVED THE BOAT THE NEXT DAY.

THAT'S IN THE CASE THAT SHOWS.

MOVE TO. I PUT IT INTO A STORAGE.

GUESS YOU'RE. I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR.

I WAS ASKING IF I MAY SPEAK.

YES, I WAS ASKING FOR THE.

THE 14% ADDITIONAL ON TOP OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES TO BE RELEASED.

I UNDERSTAND THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES, BUT I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES.

I UNDERSTAND THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES.

I'M LOOKING THROUGH THIS PACKET AND I DON'T SEE WHERE THE AFFIDAVIT OF COMPLIANCE WAS PROVIDED.

ONE TO THE PROPERTY. ONE WAS ONE OF THE PROPERTY ACTUALLY COME INTO COMPLIANCE.

I WOULD HAVE TO.

OH, SORRY.

IT DIDN'T COME INTO COMPLIANCE UNTIL MAY 12TH, 2023.

IT WAS. THE PROPERTY WAS POSTED, BUT HE APPARENTLY DID NOT SEE THAT POSTING.

HE DIDN'T. IS AWARE OR DIDN'T CORRECT IT UNTIL HE WENT TO SELL THE PROPERTY AND THEN KNEW THAT THERE WAS A LIEN ON THE PROPERTY.

[00:10:28]

I'M GOING TO REDUCE THE LEAN.

I'M GOING TO GIVE THE CITY A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THEIR ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE WAS SOME POST HEARING ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS THAT OCCURRED.

SO I'M GOING TO REDUCE IT TO $1,000.

NORMALLY A PROVIDES THAT IT'S PAID IN 30 DAYS.

YOU HAVE A PROBLEM DOING THAT.

THE FEE. CORRECT.

THE FINE, THE REDUCED.

FINE. NO. OKAY.

THE REASON I'M ASKING IS BECAUSE AFTER 30 DAYS, IF IT'S NOT PAID, THEN THE ORIGINAL FINE GETS REIMPOSED.

I WILL RELEASE IT IMMEDIATELY ONCE NOTIFICATIONS ARE GIVEN.

I'M SORRY, I SAID TIDAL WILL RELEASE IT IMMEDIATELY ONCE THOSE NOTIFICATIONS ARE GIVEN.

THE CITY IS GOING TO HAVE TO EXECUTE THE RELEASE OF LIEN, BUT WHICH I DON'T HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER THAT.

I'M JUST ALL I'M DOING IS ENTERING A RULING SAYING THE FINE WILL BE REDUCED TO $1,000.

UNDERSTOOD. OKAY.

SO IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, YOU NEED TO ASK THE STAFF.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS KB 2182821 AND 2247221 AT 1476 REED STREET NORTHWEST.

AFTERNOON. GOOD AFTERNOON.

YOUR MAGISTRATE. CAN YOU PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS? MY NAME IS ROBERT F BRODY.

AS OF NOW, I'M LIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS.

MY ADDRESS IS THREE, FIVE, NINE.

PEGGY CIRCLE, NORTHEAST PALM BAY, FLORIDA, 32907.

THE ADDRESS OF THE COMPLAINT OF THE.

CODE. A CODE VIOLATION IS 1476 REED STREET.

AND PROCEED WITH YOUR WITH YOUR REQUEST.

I'M SORRY. MY HEARING.

YOU CAN PROCEED WITH YOUR REQUEST.

WHAT'S THE BASIS FOR MY REQUEST? I REQUEST A REDUCTION IN THE FINES THAT I'VE ACCUMULATED.

I'VE BEEN IN BAD HEALTH FOR QUITE A FEW YEARS NOW.

I'VE BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL.

I'VE TRIED TO KEEP UP ON THAT PROPERTY, AND I'M TRYING TO CLOSE OUT ALL MY ALL MY PROPERTIES THAT ARE IN MY NAME.

SO YOUR APPLICATION INDICATES THAT YOU THOUGHT THE VIOLATIONS HAD BEEN CORRECTED.

WHY DID YOU THINK THAT WHEN YOU SAID THAT YOUR APPLICATION THOUGHT THAT YOU INDICATED THAT THE VIOLATIONS WERE CORRECTED? YES, THEY'VE ALL BEEN CORRECTED.

THEY'VE BEEN CORRECTED SEVERAL TIMES.

WE'VE HAD, YOU KNOW, TERRIBLE STORMS. AND IT'S A PINE TREE THAT HAS KNOCKED DOWN THIS A SECTION OF FENCE SEVERAL TIMES.

AND THE HOUSE HAS BEEN PRESSURE WASHED.

MY OLDEST SON IS PAINTED THE TRIM AND IS PAINTING THE FRONT, THE FACIAL, THE FACE OF THE HOUSE. AS SOON AS I CAN GET PAINT FOR THE FOR THE HOUSE.

BUT EVERYTHING ELSE HAS BEEN THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER.

EVERY IS SATISFIED WITH ALL THE CORRECTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE.

DID YOU RECEIVE NOTICE OF THE HEARING BEFORE THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD?

[00:15:05]

I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING.

MY HEARING IS VERY, VERY BAD.

IN ORDER FOR THERE TO BE A LEAN TO BEGIN WITH, THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD WOULD HAVE HAD TO HEARD THE CASE BY THE CODE ENFORCEMENT DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY ASSERTED THAT THESE VIOLATIONS EXISTED AND YOU WOULD HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE OF THAT HEARING.

DID YOU NOT RECEIVE NOTICE OF THAT HEARING? I JUST RECEIVED A NOTICE OF A HEARING THIS LAST TIME.

NO. I MEAN, WHEN THEY IMPOSED THE FINES, DID YOU GET I.

I'VE BEEN LIKE I SAID, I'VE BEEN LIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER FOR TWO YEARS AT A DIFFERENT ADDRESS, SO.

I HAVEN'TRILLIONECEIVED WHAT'S HAPPENED TO THE MAIL THAT'S BEEN DIRECTED AT YOUR REED STREET ADDRESS? EXCUSE ME. WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE MAIL THAT WAS DIRECTED TO YOUR REED STREET ADDRESS? WELL, I'VE BEEN LIVING WITH YOUR DAUGHTER.

UH, I HONESTLY, I CAN'T SAY I.

OKAY. I DID RECEIVE ONE PAPER.

NOT OF THE, YOU KNOW, THE THE AMOUNT.

I'M TALKING ABOUT AT THE BEGINNING WHEN THIS ALL STARTED.

NOT NOW. I'M TALKING ABOUT WHEN THIS ALL STARTED.

FROM THE BEGINNING. YES.

THE THE FENCING THAT WAS REPAIRED.

LIKE I SAID, SIR, WHEN YOU RECEIVED THE FIRST VIOLATION.

OH, I CAN'T. HOW DO YOU.

HONESTLY, I CAN'T REMEMBER.

WHEN DID YOU WHEN DID YOU GET WHEN DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT THESE VIOLATIONS? WHAT? ACTUALLY, WHEN I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO CLOSE ON MY ONE OF MY PROPERTIES.

AND WHAT IS IT YOU'RE REQUESTING THAT I DO? UM, I OWE A LOT OF MONEY TO MY.

MY RELATIVES FRIENDS.

AND I'M SELLING OFF THE.

MY ONE HOUSE.

UH, LIKE I SAID, I'M LIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER.

FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS, I'VE BEEN IN POOR HEALTH FOR 4 OR 5 YEARS.

I'VE BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL, AND I CAN'T AFFORD THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY.

I UNDERSTAND THAT. BUT WHAT I'M ASKING IS, WHAT IS IT YOU'RE ASKING ME TO DO? WHAT ARE YOU ASKING OF ME? IF I COULD PAY THE REDUCTION OF THE FINES.

FOR WHAT? AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

PLEASE.

YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE AT THIS TIME? DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE AT THIS TIME? I MEAN, I CAN SEE EXPENSES COURT.

NO, I UNDERSTAND. I'M JUST ASKING.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO PRESENT? NO, NO, THAT'S IT.

THAT'S FINE. OKAY.

AND WHAT'S THE CITY'S POSITION REGARDING THESE TWO? ON CASE NUMBER 2182821.

THE CITY. SABRINA PERKINS, CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE CITY HAS NO OBJECTION IN A REDUCTION OF THE LIEN WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES ARE COLLECTED IN THE AMOUNT OF $750.

THE CITY IS ALSO ASKING FOR AN 11% OF THE TOTAL FINES TO BE PAID, WHICH IS $4,688 FOR A TOTAL OF $5,418. OR THE SECOND CASE OF 2247221. THE CITY HAS NO OBJECTION AND A REDUCTION OF THE LEAN WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES ARE COLLECTED IN THE AMOUNT OF $750.

THE CITY IS ALSO ASKING FOR AN 11% FOR THE IN THE AMOUNT OF 2000 I'M SORRY, $3,003.77 FOR A TOTAL OF $3,753.77. WHAT DID YOU HEAR? WHAT DID YOU HEAR? WHAT? OKAY.

I'M DEAF IN MY RIGHT EAR AND MY HEARING IS LIKE, I CAN'T HEAR IN THE OTHER ONE, RIGHT? I CAN'T HEAR NOTHING. OKAY.

WHAT THE CITY INDICATED IS, IS THEY'RE SEEKING.

THEY'RE SEEKING.

FOR THE FOR THE FIRST CASE, WHICH I'LL GO IN THAT IN A MINUTE.

WHAT THOSE VIOLATIONS WERE.

[00:20:01]

AND THEN FOR THE FIRST ONE, THEY'RE THEY'RE ASKING FOR $750 PLUS 11% OF THE FACE AMOUNT OF THE FINES, WHICH THAT WILL TOTAL $5,418.

FOR THE SECOND CASE, THEY'RE ASKING FOR $750 IN ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS AND 11%, WHICH COMES TO $3,753.77.

SO THAT'S THEIR POSITION.

DO YOU HAVE A RESPONSE TO THEIR POSITION? ADMINISTRATOR. I'M SORRY.

ADMINISTRATIVE FEES.

I HAVE NO OBJECTION IN PAYING.

IF THEY COULD REDUCE THE OTHER FINES, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT BECAUSE IT JUST.

I'M SORRY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY.

LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THE FINES ARE, SO.

THE FIRST CASE.

THE VIOLATIONS IN THE FIRST CASE.

OR THAT THERE WERE VEHICLES PARKED IN THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE BEYOND THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED.

THERE WAS ACCUMULATION OF TRASH AND DEBRIS OR TALL GRASS AND WEEDS AND FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE EXTERIOR OF THE STRUCTURE FREE OF DISCOLORATION, MILDEW AND OR RUST.

SECOND VIOLATION.

SOUNDS LIKE IT'S THE ONE THAT YOU BROUGHT UP ABOUT THE FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE FENCE AND ORIGINAL CONDITION.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT'S THE ONE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT, WHERE THE PINE TREE FELL ON THE FENCE.

SO THOSE ARE WHAT THE TWO SEPARATE VIOLATIONS ARE FOR.

WHEN WAS THE FIRST VIOLATION, PLEASE? THEY WERE BOTH TWO YEARS AGO.

THE DATE OF THE FIRST ONE WAS JANUARY 13TH, 2021.

THE DATE OF THE SECOND ONE WAS NOVEMBER 10TH, 2021.

SO THEY'RE BASICALLY 11 MONTHS APART.

TEN MONTHS APART. OKAY.

I SHOULD HAVE KEPT UP BETTER ON IT.

I APOLOGIZE TO THE COURT AND TO THE TOWN OF PALM BAY.

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE CITY.

DID THE CITY DO ANY FOLLOW UP INSPECTIONS TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE TRASH AND DEBRIS AND THE GRASS VIOLATIONS WERE TAKEN CARE OF PRIOR TO THE PROPERTY BEING FOUND IN COMPLIANCE? YES. I'M NOT AWARE OF HOW MANY VIOLATIONS, BUT ON A NORMAL BASIS, WE WOULD CHECK IT AFTER THE HEARING DATE THAT WAS GIVEN. AND THEN AGAIN, WE'RE GOING TO CHECK IT AT LEAST QUARTERLY FROM THAT POINT ON UNTIL IT'S THE VIOLATION HAS BEEN CORRECTED.

BUT WHAT I'M ASKING IS, IS THERE WERE FOUR VIOLATIONS IN THE FIRST CASE.

AND I GUESS WHAT I'M ASKING IS, IS.

WHAT DID DURING ANY OF THE CITY'S SUBSEQUENT INSPECTIONS.

WAS THERE EVER A DETERMINATION MADE THAT SOME OF THESE WERE TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE THE PROPERTY WAS ACTUALLY COME INTO TOTAL COMPLIANCE? THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN MARKED ON THE PAPER IF THEY CAME INTO COMPLIANCE OR SEND A LETTER SAYING THAT THOSE VIOLATIONS HAD COME INTO COMPLIANCE AND THEN WHICH ONES WERE LEFT.

SO THESE VIOLATIONS ALL HAD STAYED OPEN DURING THAT TIME.

THANK YOU. I'M GOING TO GO BACKWARDS.

I'M GOING TO ENTER AN ORDER REDUCING THE FINE FOR THE FENCE ISSUE DOWN TO 750 AND NOT GIVING THE CITY ANY EXTRA MONEY ON THAT ONE.

IT'S GOING TO BE 700.

THAT ONE'S GOING TO GET REDUCED TO 750.

THE FIRST ONE WHERE THERE WERE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE ISSUES.

I'M GOING TO ADD SOME ENHANCEMENT TO IT.

I'M GOING TO REDUCE THE VIOLATIONS IN THE FIRST CASE DOWN TO $2,000.

SO THE TOTAL FOR THE TOTAL FOR EVERYTHING WILL BE 2750 FOR EVERYTHING.

SO THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT CASES.

[00:25:01]

SO FOR THE FENCE CASE, I'M GIVING THE CITY THEIR ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.

AND THEN FOR THE OTHER ONE WHERE THERE ARE FOUR SEPARATE VIOLATIONS IN THAT, IN THAT FINDING BY THE BOARD.

AND A LOT OF THEM HAD TO DO WITH PROPERTY MAINTENANCE ISSUES THAT APPEARED TO BE THERE FOR A WHILE.

SO I'M GOING TO REDUCE THE I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE THE CITY THE FULL AMOUNT THAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR, BUT I'M GOING TO REDUCE IT DOWN TO $2,000 FOR THAT ONE.

SO THE TOTAL FOR BOTH CASES IS $2,750.

I'LL AGREE TO THAT.

THANK YOU. NOW, AS I INDICATED IN THE FIRST CASE, NORMALLY IN THE ORDER, IT PROVIDES FOR PAYMENT WITHIN 30 DAYS.

AND IF IT'S NOT PAID WITHIN 30 DAYS, THE ORIGINAL FINES ARE REINSTATED.

DO YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM PAYING WITHIN 30 DAYS? IF IF EVERYTHING IS SENT THROUGH TO THE COUNTY, I CAN CLOSE NEXT WEDNESDAY AND THE THE MONEY WILL COME OUT OF THE CLOSING TO TO PALM BAY.

OKAY. THEN I'LL JUST PUT 30 DAYS IN THERE.

AND WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS, IS THAT THEY'LL GET THE ORDER SHOWING THE FINES HAVE BEEN REDUCED AND THEY SHOULD PAY IT FROM THE CLOSING.

SO THAT'S HOW THAT SHOULD WORK.

OKAY. BUT YOU NEED TO GET BUT THE CITY HAS TO SIGN A SATISFACTION OF THE OR PROVIDED SATISFACTION TO WHOEVER IS HANDLING YOUR CLOSING.

AND THAT WILL BE HELD UNTIL THE CLOSING ACTUALLY HAPPENS OR THE CITY WILL SEND WHAT THEY CALL AN ESTOPPEL LETTER SAYING THIS IS WHAT'S OWED ONE OR THE OTHER IS WHAT THEY'LL PROBABLY DO. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

YES. SO THE ORDER WILL BE ENTERED AND PAYMENT WILL BE DUE IN 30 DAYS.

AND IF IT'S NOT PAID, IT WILL BE REINSTATED.

NO, WE'RE HOPING THAT THE CLOSING, IF EVERYTHING GOES THROUGH TO THE COUNTY, THEN AND AS RECORDED, THEN THE TITLE COMPANY WILL HAVE NO PROBLEM ON THE CLOSING DATE BECAUSE WE'RE HOPING FOR NEXT WEDNESDAY.

OKAY. I APPRECIATE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, YOU MAGISTRATE.

OUR NEXT CASE IS TO BE HEARD OR CEB.

I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

WELL, MY CONCERN IS, IS THAT I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, NONE OF WHAT YOU JUST SAID IS EVIDENCE.

THE IDEA IS TO PROVIDE TO THE CITY WITH AFFORDABLE UNITS.

AND WE HAVE ONE OF THE ONE PART OF THE BUILDING.

THAT'S WHY WE TALK ABOUT ONE YEAR.

ONE PART OF THE BUILDING IS A REMODELING.

THAT WILL BE THE FIRST PHASE.

AND THE SECOND PHASE IS WE TAKE LONGER, IT'S BIGGER, BUT THE FIRST PHASE IS 130 UNITS.

HER CASE.

AND THERE IS ALSO A REPAIR AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY.

DORA, HAVE YOU READ THIS REPAIR AGREEMENT? YES, I DID.

AND THE OBLIGATIONS IT IMPOSES ON YOUR YOUR DEVELOPER OR YOUR COMPANY OR LLC, WHICHEVER ONE IT IS.

YEAH. THE IDEA IS OUR MAIN IDEA IS TO PROVIDE UNITS AND NOT TO HAVE A VACANT UNIT.

NO, NO, NO, I UNDERSTAND, BUT I'M JUST SAYING.

NO, NO. YES. I MEAN, THE IMPLICATION OF THE THE AGREEMENT THAT WE HAVE WITH THE CITY OBLIGATES YOU TO PERFORM CERTAIN THINGS WITHIN A YEAR, CORRECT? CORRECT. BASED UPON THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION THAT THE FINES BE REDUCED TO $750 PER CASE. I'LL ENTER AN ORDER REDUCING TO 750 FOR EACH CASE AND ALSO SUBJECT TO THE REPAIR AGREEMENT THAT'S BEEN EXECUTED BY THE PARTIES, THE CITY, AND AND THE 1611 MERIDIAN LLC.

THANK YOU, SIR. AND AGAIN, THE FINE NEEDS TO BE PAID WITHIN 30 DAYS.
