OKAY. NEXT ON THE LIST IS ADOPTION OF THE MINUTES FROM THE PREVIOUS MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 11TH.

[ADOPTION OF MINUTES]

AND THOSE HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND ACCEPTED.

AND WE CAN MOVE ON TO REPORTS.

[REPORTS]

OKAY.

OUR FIRST CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB AND 71.24 AT 190 ULVIK CIRCLE NORTHEAST.

AND THE CODE OFFICER IS SABRINA PERKINS.

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

I GUESS THE RESPONDENT IS HERE TO.

IS A RESPONDENT HERE FOR THIS CASE? SHE JUST STEPPED OUTSIDE.

OH, OKAY.

AND I HAVE NOT SPOKEN WITH HIM, SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE ASKING FOR.

I'M ASSUMING AN EXTENSION.

OKAY. CAN I HAVE THE FILE, PLEASE? SURE. THANK YOU.

YEAH. OKAY.

YEAH, I'LL JUST HOLD ON TO IT.

IF WE SEE HER COME BACK IN, WE'LL COME BACK HERE.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB B2477324 AT 1663 GEORGIA STREET NORTHEAST.

SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER AND MR. ALAN IS HERE TO SPEAK.

HE DOES HAVE PART OF THE PERMIT FOR THIS, BUT HE DOES NOT HAVE THE UTILITIES PART.

HE IS WORKING ON IT, BUT HE STILL DOESN'T HAVE ALL THE COMPLETION OF IT YET.

OKAY. CAN I HAVE THE FILE, PLEASE? I GET THE FILE. YEAH.

GOOD AFTERNOON. AFTERNOON, SIR.

DAVID. YOUR STORY.

DO YOU WANT COPIES? WELL, WHY DON'T YOU GO AHEAD AND.

YES, STATE YOUR NAME.

TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON. AND THEN I'M DAVID MALDEN.

I'M THE MANAGING PARTNER AT THE 1663 GEORGIA STREET.

THE CITY WANTS US TO CONNECT TO THE SEWER.

BUT THEY WON'T.

THEY KEEP ON SENDING US FROM ONE DEPARTMENT TO ANOTHER.

THEY GOT TOO MANY LITTLE GODS, YOU KNOW THAT.

EACH ONE THROW THEIR WEIGHTS IN.

THEY. APPARENTLY THEY APPROVED THE PLANS AFTER WE PRESSURED THEM.

I HAVE CORRESPONDENCE OVER HERE THAT THEY'VE BEEN TAKING NO ACTION.

AND ONCE WE PRESSURE THEM, THEY SAID, NOW THE PLANS ARE APPROVED, BUT THEY GOT A BUNCH OF OTHER REQUIREMENTS.

AND I AM PRESSING AS HARD AS I CAN, FOR EXAMPLE, THE UTILITY AGREEMENT.

I'VE ASKED THEM I'VE TALKED TO THEM 2 OR 3 TIMES, BUT THEY DON'T SEND ME SOMETHING SO I CAN GET MOVING FROM HERE.

I'M GOING TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT TO PICKING UP THE PLANS.

ALL WE NEED IS A PERMIT SO WE CAN GO AHEAD AND BUILD.

THE FUNDS ARE SITTING OVER THERE, YOU KNOW, JUST WASTING TIME.

AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'M COMING BY THIS BOARD.

OKAY. WHEN WAS THE FIRST TIME YOU CAME BEFORE THE BOARD? A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, I THINK IN AUGUST, MAYBE.

[00:05:02]

OKAY. SO SO THE VIOLATION IS NOT. IS VIOLATION OF SECTION 200 NOT HAVING A UTILITY CONNECTION? THE VIOLATION IS THAT THEY WANTED ME TO CONNECT TO THE SEWER, BUT THEY WON'T GIVE ME THE PERMIT TO DO IT.

YOU KNOW, WE DO ALL OF OUR PARTS, AND THEN THEY SIT ON IT AND THEY SEND IT TO THE VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS.

A LOT OF THESE DEPARTMENTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CONNECTION OF THE SEWER.

AND EACH PERSON THROW THE RACE.

AND BY THE TIME WE SORT IT OUT AND THEN IT JUST GOES TIME.

JUST KEEP ON CLICKING, CLICKING BY, YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING NOT GETTING ANYTHING DONE.

THIS IS THE CITY.

YOU KNOW, THIS BUILDING THAT'S BEING BUILT NEXT TO YOU WAS A SMART BUILDING WITHOUT A PERMIT.

AND THAT'S BECAUSE JUST THE VERY SLOW IN MOVING.

OKAY. SABRINA, IS THE SEWER CONNECTION THE ONLY ISSUE THAT WE.

YES. AT THIS POINT.

EXCUSE ME? AT THIS POINT, IT IS IT'S.

BUT THIS HASN'T BEEN THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING THING FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

SO IT IT IS PARTLY THE CITY KEEPS ASKING FOR THINGS, BUT HIS I ASSUME IT WAS YOUR ENGINEER AT ONE POINT, BASICALLY WAS NOT COMMUNICATING THAT INFORMATION, APPARENTLY BACK TO MR. MCCLELLAN. SO THERE'S BEEN IT WAS STAGNANT FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

SO I'M HOPING AT THIS POINT THAT IT'S MOVING ALONG.

ANY ANY IDEA HOW LONG IT'LL TAKE? I, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PERMIT PROCESS IS AND HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO TAKE.

I WOULD THINK NO MORE THAN 30 DAYS TO HAVE IT COMPLETE AS LONG AS THE ENGINEERS AND SO FORTH ON MR. MORALES GET BACK THE INFORMATION THAT THE UTILITIES NEEDS TO COMPLETE THE THE WHOLE PROCESS.

OKAY. KEEP IN MIND THAT THESE HOLIDAYS AND IS IF THEY DON'T RESPOND QUICKLY, YOU KNOW, IF THEY DON'T MOVE ON, YOU KNOW, IT JUST IS NOT GOING TO BE THINGS ARE NOT GOING TO BE HAPPENING TOO FAST FROM TOWARD THE END OF NOVEMBER THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS.

YOU KNOW, I UNDERSTAND.

SO IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF MISCOMMUNICATION ON BOTH ENDS.

YEAH, I MET WITH THE CITY MANAGER ABOUT THIS.

I'M. I'M TALKING.

YEAH. SEEMS TO ME THERE'S BEEN MISCOMMUNICATION ON BOTH ENDS HERE.

SO WOULD YOU HAVE WOULD THE CITY HAVE ANY OBJECTION TO A 30 DAY EXTENSION AND THEN BUT.

SO I'M GOING TO GRANT YOU A 30 DAY EXTENSION, WHICH WILL BE DECEMBER 13TH, 2024.

IS THAT GOING TO BE WHAT'S OUR NEXT HEARING BEFORE THEN? SO IT'LL COME BACK TO THE JANUARY.

13TH. OKAY.

OKAY. SO I WILL I WILL GRANT THE 30 DAY EXTENSION.

HOWEVER, AT THE NEXT HEARING, IF THERE'S ANY EVIDENCE PRESENTED THAT DELAYS HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE PROPERTY OWNERS AGENTS AND NOT NOT RESPONDING TIMELY THEN THERE WON'T BE ANY FURTHER EXTENSIONS.

WHEN IS THE NEXT HEARING? DECEMBER 11TH. DECEMBER 11TH.

I WOULD BE OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

THE. NO. YOU HAVE UNTIL THE 13TH TO COMPLY.

THE 13TH OF JANUARY? THE THE JANUARY HEARING OR THE.

YEAH. YOU'D BE COMING BACK TO THE JANUARY HEARING.

WHAT IS THE DATE ON JANUARY? JANUARY 8TH. THANK YOU.

NO PROBLEM.

OKAY. SIR, IF YOU COULD PLEASE SIT DOWN SO WE CAN GET THE NEXT, NEXT PERSON UP HERE.

THANK YOU. OKAY.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS KB 2480724 AT 1670 HARTWELL STREET NORTHWEST.

HEY. THANKS. SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE RESPONDENT IS HERE.

[00:10:03]

ARE YOU HERE TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION, OR DID YOU CUT IT? OR. 30 DAYS? 30 DAYS? YEAH. OKAY.

HE IS HERE TO ASK FOR AN ADDITIONAL 30 DAYS.

OKAY. AND NOW THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE MAY.

CORRECT? YES.

THIS IS THE ONE. THERE WAS A GENTLEMAN LAST HERE LAST TIME THAT WAS OFFERING TO CUT THE PROPERTY.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE SITUATION WAS FROM THAT POINT, BUT THEY NEVER SHOWED.

OKAY. WELL, HE'LL ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS.

OKAY. GO AHEAD AND STATE YOUR NAME.

MY NAME IS MARK WEAVER.

AND I OWN 1670 HARTWELL VILLE.

OKAY. SO I BELIEVE I GAVE YOU A 30 DAY EXTENSION LAST TIME WE SPOKE.

IS THAT CORRECT? YES.

AND THAT WAS IF THAT WAS IN MAY.

THIS IS QUITE DIFFERENT.

BACK IN MAY, I TRYING TO THINK OF HOW TO GET MY GRASS MOWED.

I'VE ASKED PEOPLE, CAN I BORROW YOUR LAWN MOWER? NOBODY IS WILLING TO GIVE IT UP.

SO I GOT WITH VOCATIONAL REHAB AND THEY HAVE FOUND ME A JOB, WHICH I START TOMORROW.

OKAY. AND THAT'S WHY 30 DAYS.

I DON'T KNOW WHEN I GET MY FIRST PAYCHECK.

FIRST PAYCHECK IS GOING TO BE TO BUY HOPEFULLY A RUNNING LAWNMOWER.

AND THE LAST LAWN MOWER I BOUGHT WORKED ONCE.

AND I'VE BEEN.

TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW DO I CUT MY GRASS WITHOUT A LAWN MOWER.

AND IT'S JUST THE ONLY THING I'VE FOUND IS THAT I HAD A A BOTTLE OF ROUNDUP CONCENTRATE AND I THOUGHT I JUST I DON'T THINK THAT'S GOING TO THAT'S GOING TO MAKE ANYBODY'S THAT'S GOING TO MAKE YOUR POSITION BETTER.

I HAVE A JOB.

ROSES I WORK, I START TOMORROW.

OKAY. AND WHEN THE FIRST PAYCHECK IS I DON'T KNOW, THEY SAY TWO WEEKS.

I HAVE A CARD FROM VOCATIONAL REHAB IF YOU WANT TO CHECK WITH SHARON NELSON, WHO IS MY COUNSELOR.

NO, I BELIEVE YOU.

YOU KNOW, I'M JUST I'M I'M STRUGGLING WITH THIS ONE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN SO LONG.

I KNOW, I HATE HAVING MY YARD LOOK LIKE IT DOES NOW.

I MEAN, IT WAS JUST SO NICE WHEN I DID HAVE A WORKING LAWNMOWER.

HAVE YOU. HAVE YOU TALKED TO ANY SERVICES THAT CAN MOW THE MOW YOUR GRASS SOONER? I DON'T HAVE A TELEPHONE.

THAT'S A PROBLEM I GOT CAUGHT IN A THUNDERSTORM WEEKS AGO AND WITH A CRACKED SCREEN IT JUST DIED. SO.

MY COUNSELOR IN VOCATIONAL REHAB SAID THE FIRST THING YOU'RE DOING IS BUYING A PHONE.

I'M THINKING THE FIRST THING I'M DOING IS BUYING A LAWN MOWER.

HEY, FRANK. YES, AT THE AT THE JULY MEETING, THERE WAS A GENTLEMAN HERE THAT SAID THAT HE WAS GOING TO CUT HIS GRASS FOR HIM.

YEAH, HE ENDED UP GETTING EJECTED FOR ACTING.

ACTING IMPROPERLY? YEAH. SO I'M NOT SURPRISED.

YEAH. HE NEVER SHOWED UP.

OKAY. NOW.

ALL RIGHT. I, I APPRECIATE THAT YOU PROBABLY WERE RELYING ON HIM, ON THE GUY THAT CAME HERE AND SAID THAT HE WOULD THAT HE WOULD MOW YOUR LAWN.

SO I WILL I WILL GIVE YOU THE EXTENSION.

BUT ABSOLUTELY 100%.

NO MORE EXTENSIONS AFTER THAT FOR ANY REASON.

I UNDERSTAND. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. 30 DAYS, $50.

THAT'LL BE DECEMBER 13TH, 2024.

AND THEN $50 A DAY AFTER THAT FOR EVERY DAY THAT IT'S NOT IN COMPLIANCE.

[00:15:08]

DECEMBER 13TH. OKAY.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

DO WE GET ANY WATER? OKAY.

YEAH. NO, WE JUST COME HERE.

NOTHING. OKAY.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

NO PROBLEM. WE DO HAVE ONE LAST CASE, BUT WE CAN SAVE HER FOR THE END.

OKAY. 2477124 AT 190 ULVIK CIRCLE NORTHEAST.

I THINK SHE'S THE ONE THAT STEPPED OUT.

OKAY.

I DON'T THINK SO.

YEAH. OKAY. ALL RIGHT, SO WE'LL SAVE HER FOR THE END.

WE CAN COME BACK TO THAT. OKAY.

FOR NOW, THE CITY IS REQUESTING THE CODE ENFORCEMENT SPECIAL MAGISTRATE.

FIND ALL RESPONDENTS OR CASES LISTED IN THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES, REPORT AND NONCOMPLIANCE FOR THE PERIOD STATED IN THE REPORT AND IMPOSE THE FINES LISTED ON THE REPORT. I FIND ALL THE RESPONDENTS CASES LISTED IN THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES, REPORT IN NONCOMPLIANCE FOR THE PERIOD STATED ON THE REPORT, AND IMPOSE THE FINES AS LISTED ON THE REPORT DATED NOVEMBER 13TH, 2024.

OH, SHE'S COMING RIGHT NOW.

IT'LL JUST BE A MINUTE.

GO AHEAD AND DO WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO.

OKAY. SO DO YOU WANT TO MOVE ON TO HEARINGS? YEAH, WE'LL MOVE ON TO HEARINGS AND THEN WE'LL FIT HER IN IF SHE COMES BACK WHENEVER WE CAN.

OKAY. SO OUR FIRST CASE FOR HEARINGS IS CB 2539124 AT 1649 HAYES STREET NORTHWEST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELICA SNEED, AND TODAY SABRINA IS GOING TO FILL IN.

OKAY. GOOD AFTERNOON.

WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE CODE OFFICER KEVIN DIAZ, ON BEHALF OF THE PROPERTY OWNER.

OKAY. THANK YOU. AND WHAT IS YOUR ROLE HERE? ARE YOU AN ATTORNEY OR.

COUNCIL. COUNCIL.

OKAY.

HELLO? DID YOU CALL? I'M SORRY. DID YOU CALL BOTH OF THEM AT THE SAME TIME OR JUST ONE? HAYES. OKAY.

OKAY. WHICH CASE DID YOU CALL AGAIN? WAS IT 36539125391.

OKAY. OKAY.

SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

DID A RE-INSPECTION ON THIS PROPERTY TODAY, AND IT IS STILL IN VIOLATION.

THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT.

ARE YOU ATTORNEY FOR THE ATTORNEY FOR THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY? OKAY. AND HE'S HERE TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. WE.

I SPOKE WITH THE OFFICE AND THE CODE OFFICER EARLIER TODAY AND YESTERDAY.

THE CHALLENGE THAT WE HAVE IS THAT THESE ARE ISSUES INCURRED BY A TENANT.

AND YOU'LL PROBABLY HEAR A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THIS ON THE SECOND CASE, WHICH IS MORE CHALLENGING FOR US.

WE WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN EXTENSION TO THE NEXT HEARING DATE.

SUPPOSING THE TENANT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE ISSUE, OUR ONLY OPTION, EXCUSE ME, IS TO ISSUE A SEVEN DAY NOTICE TO CURE, WHICH THEN WOULD TRIGGER THE EVICTION ACTION.

OUR HANDS ARE A LITTLE TIED BECAUSE OF THAT.

[00:20:02]

NOW WE ARE RESEARCHING WHETHER WE CAN JUST SEND A CREW OUT THERE NOW AND THEN TRY TO BUILD A TENANT IN THE FUTURE.

HOWEVER, I DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER IF THAT'S EVEN POSSIBLE TODAY.

OKAY. THAT WAS GOING TO BE MY QUESTION BECAUSE THIS IS ON THE OUTSIDE, SO I DON'T I DON'T SEE WHAT WHAT'S PREVENTING YOU FROM JUST JUST MOWING IT.

I DON'T HAVE THE ANSWER TO THAT.

SUPPOSING IT'S ONLY EXTERIOR AND SUPPOSING THE LEASE ALLOWS US TO DO A CHARGEBACK, THEN I WOULD AGREE WITH YOUR POSITION.

WELL, IT IT IS ONLY A IT IS ONLY THE EXTERIOR, BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN CITED FOR TALL GRASS AND WEEDS INSIDE THE BUILDING.

SO THAT WE CAN WE CAN TAKE THAT AS NOT JUST AN ASSUMPTION, BUT AS A FACT.

BUT AS FAR AS WHETHER OR NOT THE LEASE ALLOWS YOU TO MAKE IT A CHARGEBACK, THAT'S NOT REALLY THE CITY'S CONCERN.

I MEAN, THIS IS A PROPERTY OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY.

NOT NOT THE TENANT'S.

IF THE LEASE DOESN'T ALLOW YOU TO TO CHARGE IT BACK, YOU KNOW, IF THE TENANT DOES, NOTHING, CONTINUES TO DO NOTHING, AND YOU END UP GETTING FINED.

THAT FINE IS STILL ON YOU.

IT'S NOT GOING TO GO TO THE TENANTS GOING CANNOT, YOU KNOW, UNLESS.

UNLESS YOU CAN SEEK SOME OTHER REMEDY.

WE COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND.

ONE THING THAT WE TRY TO DO IS AVOID EVICTING BASED ON THESE ISSUES.

THAT'S WHY THEY SENT ME HERE TODAY.

TRY TO BUY US TIME. TRY TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEM.

BUT UNDOUBTEDLY, IF THEY DO NOT ASSIST, EVENTUALLY, THAT'S WHAT IT WOULD LEAD TO.

OKAY. I MEAN, AND THIS LOOKS LIKE I MEAN, YOU'VE ALREADY ESSENTIALLY HAD A 30 DAY EXTENSION BECAUSE OF THE BECAUSE OF THE LAST HEARING WAS CANCELED FOR THE HURRICANE.

SO, I MEAN, IT SHOULD BE AS SIMPLE AS GOING, DO YOU HAVE THE LEASE WITH YOU NOW? I DON'T. OKAY.

THIS IS A PER DAY FINE ONE, RIGHT? CORRECT. OKAY.

I GOTTA BE HONEST.

YOU GOT TO GIVE ME SOMETHING MORE. I'M NOT.

I'M NOT INCLINED TO GIVE TO GIVE ANY AN ADDITIONAL 30 DAYS OR AN ADDITIONAL EXTENSION UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, BECAUSE, I MEAN, I, I FEEL LIKE THE THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REVIEW THE CONTRACT AND SEE HOW WHETHER OR NOT THEY CAN REQUIRE THE TENANT OR CHARGE BACK TO THE TENANT IN WITHIN 60 DAYS.

I CAN SHED SOME LIGHT ON THAT.

AND WHILE IT MAY SEEM IT'S AN EASY FUNCTION, THIS IS A PARTICULAR REIT THAT HAS OVER 50,000 SINGLE FAMILY HOMES UNDER MANAGEMENT.

SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THE PIECES OF MAIL THAT WE RECEIVE.

I WAS LOOPED IN ON THIS LAST WEEK.

OKAY. SO WHILE I WOULD AGREE IN NORMAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT BEEN CIRCUMSTANCES.

YES, MAIL COMES IN, YOU ANALYZE IT, YOU TRY TO DEAL WITH IT, YOU COME UP WITH A PLAN.

BUT IN OUR SITUATION, WE'RE NOT DEALING WITH THAT TYPE OF MANAGEMENT COMPANY.

AND WE DO TRY TO ADDRESS THINGS AS THEY COME.

I'M A LITTLE SHORT HANDED AS I JUST GOT LOOPED IN ON THIS.

GOTCHA. AND I'M TRYING TO GATHER AS MUCH INFORMATION AS I CAN UP UNTIL THIS HEARING.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT, I, I GOTTA BE HONEST, AS AN ATTORNEY, I'VE GOT GREAT SYMPATHY FOR YOU AND AND THE SITUATION YOU WERE PUT IN.

I DON'T, BECAUSE I'VE BEEN IN THAT EXACT SAME SITUATION MYSELF.

I JUST, BUT, I MEAN, IF YOU'RE A PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY WITH 50,000 UNITS UNDER MANAGEMENT, THAT'S THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET A HOLD OF OR THEY, THE OWNER OR THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET TAKEN CARE OF WITHIN 60 DAYS, SO I, I JUST, I, I DON'T THINK I CAN GIVE YOU AN EXTENSION ON THIS ONE.

COULD THE COMPLIANCE OR AT LEAST THE FINE DATE COMMENCE MAYBE TEN DAYS OR 15 DAYS FROM TODAY? WELL, THAT WOULD BE THE SAME THING AS AN EXTENSION, WOULDN'T IT? WOULD IT NOT? WELL, I WAS I THINK THE ORIGINAL REQUEST WAS A CONTINUANCE FOR THE FOLLOWING HEARING.

BUT IN THEORY, YES, IT WOULD BE TEN DAYS.

I THINK IT'S A SMALL REQUEST.

JUST GIVE US ENOUGH TIME TO AT LEAST TRY TO SEND A CREW OUT.

OKAY, I.

[00:25:04]

I CAN GIVE YOU FIVE DAYS TO SEND OUT A CREW.

THANK YOU. NOVEMBER 18TH.

AND THEN IT'LL BE $50 A DAY EVERY DAY AFTER THAT.

THAT IT'S NOT IN COMPLIANCE.

THANK YOU. NO PROBLEM.

CAN WE JUST HEAR THE. SINCE.

SINCE THE GENTLEMAN'S ALREADY UP, CAN WE JUST.

THIS IS THE NEXT CASE WE HEARD IS CB 2536524 AT 1161 ELMONT STREET, NORTHWEST.

DO YOU NEED ME TO ANNOUNCE MYSELF OR.

NO? YES, IF YOU WOULD, PLEASE.

SABRINA NICHOLSON, CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE ATTORNEY IS HERE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE OWNER.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

KEVIN DIAZ, ON BEHALF OF THE PROPERTY OWNER.

THIS ONE'S A LITTLE MORE CHALLENGING.

THIS ONE'S THE BOAT PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY.

NOW, WE CAN'T JUST REMOVE THAT BOAT WITHOUT THE TENANT ASSISTING.

OKAY. YEAH, I UNDERSTAND WHY THIS ONE IS MORE CHALLENGING.

LET'S SEE. SO, WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN? WHAT ACTIONS HAVE YOU TAKEN AGAINST THE TENANT? BASED ON EMAIL COMMUNICATION FROM THIS MORNING, WE HAVEN'T ISSUED THE SEVEN DAY NOTICE SECURE YET, BUT THAT'S FORTHCOMING.

OKAY. WHEN? SO WHEN DID THIS COME? WAS DID THIS ALSO COME ACROSS YOUR DESK THIS WEEK? WHEN? YES.

ALONG WITH THIS ONE, I GOT LOOPED IN ON BOTH OF THEM.

OKAY.

HAS ANYBODY MADE CONTACT WITH THE TENANT TO TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE WITH THEM OR REQUESTED FEEDBACK AS TO THAT.

BUT I DON'T HAVE AN UPDATE TO THAT POINT.

OKAY.

OKAY. NOW, SO ONCE YOU SEND OUT, ONCE YOU SEND THE SEVEN DAY NOTICE, I MEAN THAT'S STILL NOT GOING TO.

IT'S NOT GOING TO BE DONE IN SEVEN DAYS.

IT'S STILL GOING TO BE A WHILE BEFORE THERE'S ANY ACTION THAT CAN BE TAKEN.

TO REMOVE THE TENANT.

YOU HAVE TO FILE THE FILE, THE EVICTION COMPLAINT AND GET THEM SERVED AND GO THROUGH THAT WHOLE IT'S GOING TO BE A PROCESS.

SO AFTER THE SEVEN DAYS, THEN YOU CAN FILE THE EVICTION.

EVENTUALLY YOU'LL BE REQUIRED TO RECEIVE A REMOVAL ORDER.

THEN WE CAN HAVE THE WRIT EXECUTED.

AND THEN BASED ON THE SHERIFF'S TIMELINES, WE CAN COMPLETE THE REMOVAL.

MOST TENANTS DO LEAVE PRIOR TO THE SHERIFF ARRIVING, BUT IT IS, I WOULD SAY ON AVERAGE, SIX WEEKS.

YEAH. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT, I DON'T I DON'T HAVE AS MUCH OF A PROBLEM GIVING YOU AN EXTENSION ON THIS ONE, BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THERE REALLY ISN'T ANYTHING YOU CAN DO UNTIL UNTIL YOU GET THAT GOING.

BUT THE SEVEN, THE.

I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU MUCH TIME THOUGH.

SO LET'S DO SIX WEEKS IS WHAT, 45 DAYS? IF YOU GET SEVEN DAYS, YOU GET THE SEVEN DAY NOTICE SERVED TODAY, AND THEN YOU GET THE COMPLAINT SERVED.

THAT WOULD TAKE ABOUT MAYBE THREE DAYS.

GET IT FILED AND SERVED. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, WHERE THEY LIVE.

SO IF IT'S BY POSTING.

YEAH, ABOUT THREE DAYS, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

WELL, I, I TRUST YOU USE PROCESS SERVER TO GET IT DONE DAY OF OR AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE SO THAT WE'LL SAY THAT'S TEN DAYS AND THEY GOT FIVE DAYS TO ANSWER. FIVE BUSINESS DAYS.

FIVE BUSINESS. OKAY. FIVE BUSINESS DAYS.

WE'LL CALL IT SEVEN.

SO WE'RE AT 17 DAYS NOW AND THEN HOW LONG? HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT'LL TAKE TO GET A JUDGMENT? WE'LL CALL IT DEFAULT JUDGMENT.

DEFAULT JUDGMENT WITH E-FILING SYSTEMS, MAYBE 24 HOURS.

ONCE YOU HAVE THE DEFAULT JUDGMENT WRIT FROM, THERE IS 10 TO 15 DAYS BEFORE IT'S EXECUTED OR COMPLETED.

OKAY. SO.

SO 30 DAYS PROBABLY DO THE TRICK.

ALL RIGHT. WE'LL SET THE WE'LL SET THE NEW DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR DECEMBER 13TH, 2024.

AND THEN IT'S FIVE DAYS OR $50 A DAY FOR EVERY DAY.

THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE AFTER THAT.

THANK YOU EVERYONE.

HAVE A GREAT DAY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

[00:30:02]

LET'S GO BACK TO ME.

GOING BACK TO AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES.

THE CASE IS CB 2477124 AT 190 ULVIK CIRCLE NORTHEAST.

SPRING NICHOLSON, CO, COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE OWNER IS HERE TO SPEAK ON THEIR BEHALF, AND I BELIEVE THEY'RE ASKING FOR AN EXTENSION.

THIS IS FOR DRIVEWAY AND DISREPAIR.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

SIR. WERE YOU HERE WHEN WE SWORE? WHEN WE SWORE EVERYONE IN? NO, I JUST ARRIVED.

I LEFT FROM WORK TO COME HERE.

OKAY. I JUST NEED YOU TO RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND SO WE CAN SWEAR YOU IN BEFORE YOU SPEAK.

DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU GOD? YES, I DO. THANK YOU.

OKAY. SO IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'VE GOT A FAILED CULVERT IN YOUR DRIVEWAY, AND YOU'RE WORKING ON THE REPAIRS.

SO TELL ME THE TELL ME YOUR STORY.

WELL, I HAD SOME LIFE CHANGING EVENTS THAT TOOK PLACE.

MY AUNT PASSED AWAY, AND ALSO MY MY WIFE'S MOTHER AS WELL.

AND THAT TOOK PLACE WITHIN THIS YEAR.

AND ALSO MY WIFE TOLD ME SHE'S PREGNANT, TOO.

SO THE FINANCES HAD TO COME OUT IN ORDER TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE THINGS AND PREPARE.

BUT ALSO IN THE MIDST OF PREPARING FOR THE FUNDS FOR THE DRIVEWAY, OF COURSE, I HAD TO DEDUCT FROM THAT TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE LIFE CHANGING EVENTS THAT I DIDN'T HAVE CONTROL OVER.

YES, I DO HAVE SOME OF THE FUNDS, PRETTY MUCH LIKE HALF YOU COULD SAY, BUT CLOSE TO THE GOAL, WHICH IS $14,000 THAT'S NEEDED.

I DO BELIEVE THAT IF I GET MORE TIME THAN BEFORE, THE I WELL, I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH TIME I CAN BE GIVEN ON THE EXTENSION, BUT KNOWING THAT THAT CAN HELP ME GAUGE WHERE I WOULD BE AND WHAT I WAS PLANNING TO DO WAS ALSO WITH MY FILING OF THE INCOME TAX FOR THE NEW YEAR, TO TAKE SOME OF THAT, TO ADD THAT IN, TO AT LEAST TAKE CARE OF IT BEFOREHAND, BECAUSE I CAN PUT THAT TOGETHER WITH WHAT I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE, BECAUSE MY WIFE IS ON LEAVE.

I'M THE ONLY ONE WORKING ON THE IN THE HOME AT THIS CURRENT MOMENT.

OKAY. NO, I APPRECIATE THAT.

GIVING EXTENSIONS IS ONE OF THE FEW AUTHORITIES I HAVE, AND IT'S LIMITED MOSTLY BY MY ABILITY TO DO MATH IN PUBLIC.

SO I'VE GOT THIS CHEAT SHEET HERE.

I JUST BASICALLY NEED SOME EVIDENCE ABOUT LIKE HOW LIKE HOW LONG YOU THINK IT'S GOING TO TAKE WHAT YOU'VE DONE UP TO THIS POINT TO GET THERE.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE WORKING ON SAVING THE FUNDS.

YES. AND YOU HAVE AN ESTIMATE.

SO HAVE YOU WORKED WITH A CONTRACTOR ALREADY TO.

YES. HE'S.

IT'S ABOUT I WOULD SAY IN TOTAL, HE TOLD ME IT WAS I WOULD SAY 13, 800.

OKAY. SO THAT'S WHY I SAID IT'S ABOUT 14,000 IN TOTAL TO DO THE WHOLE ENTIRE DRIVEWAY WITH THE NEW CULVERT PIPE AND ALSO LAYING PRETTY MUCH ADDING IN THE SAND TO FILL IN ANY SPOTS THAT MAY BE LACKING.

AND ALSO, HE TOLD ME WHAT TYPE OF IT'S GOING TO BE A FOUR INCH STRUCTURE AND REINFORCED IN ORDER FOR IT TO NOT HAVE THAT DAMAGE DOWN THE ROAD.

OKAY. AND HAVE YOU CAUGHT THE.

THE NOTE IN HERE SAYS TO CONTACT THE CITY BEFORE YOU DO ANY REPAIRS.

HAVE YOU HAVE YOU WORKED WITH THE CITY TO GET THE PERMITS? ALL. ALL SET UP? NO. BECAUSE THE.

WELL, THE THING IS, THE CONTRACTOR SAID THAT ONE IS THE NOTICE THAT WE GOT FROM THE CITY IS WHAT HE WOULD NEED TO SEE.

AND THAT WAY HE COULD GO AHEAD AND GET THE PERMIT AND EVERYTHING APPROVED THROUGH THEM, BECAUSE IT IS A CONTRACTOR THAT THE CITY PERMITTED THAT WE'RE GOING WITH.

IT'S NOT AN OUTSIDE CONTRACTOR BECAUSE THEY GAVE US A LIST OF FIVE.

OKAY. AND BASED ON THE FIVE WE ACTUALLY CHOSE, THE ONE THAT WE FELT WAS THE BETTER CANDIDATE.

AND ALSO THE REVIEWS OF THEIR THE QUALITY OF THEIR WORK.

WE DIDN'T WANT QUANTITY.

WE'RE LOOKING FOR QUALITY.

SO WE DON'T END UP IN THIS POSITION AGAIN.

OKAY. SO YOU'VE YOU'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE CITY.

YOU'VE GOT A CONTRACTOR SET UP.

HAS HE TOLD YOU HOW LONG IT'LL TAKE FOR HIM TO FINISH ONCE HE STARTS? FROM WHAT I RECEIVED IN THE INFORMATION, AS FAR AS DEMO AND REPAIR, IT SHOULD BE, I WOULD SAY, LESS THAN A THREE WEEK PROCESS.

OKAY. FROM WHAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO DO.

[00:35:02]

AND FROM THERE, THAT THAT THAT WILL.

AFTER HE'S COMPLETED THE JOB, OF COURSE, I WOULD HAVE TO COME TO.

I WOULD SAY THE OFFICE TO SHOW.

HEY, LOOK, THIS IS IT. AND THEN I GUESS WHEN THEY SEND SOMEONE OUT TO TAKE PICTURES TO SEE.

OKAY, SO WE'RE LOOKING AT BASICALLY THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT'LL TAKE YOU TO GET TOGETHER THE REST OF THE MONEY PLUS THREE WEEKS.

SO DO YOU HAVE A PLAN? LIKE, HAVE HOW HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT'LL TAKE FOR YOU TO TO GET THE PROJECT STARTED? TIME WINDOW, I WOULD SAY.

BEFORE APRIL.

BEFORE APRIL? BEFORE APRIL.

IT COULD BE A GOOD TIME PERIOD TO HAVE THAT PROJECT COMPLETED AND DONE.

SO I WOULD SAY PROBABLY BECAUSE I'M LOOKING I'M GAUGING GAZING TOWARDS MARCH, HAVING THEM START THE WORK.

BUT IF ANYTHING I WOULD SAY LATE FEBRUARY.

BUT I THINK I WOULD SAY I BELIEVE BEFORE APRIL WE SHOULD BE IN THE CLEAR.

SO I WOULD SAY BY BY THE FIRST WEEK OF APRIL I SHOULD HAVE IT RESOLVED.

OKAY, THAT'S MY TIMELINE OF WHAT I AM, BECAUSE ALSO I'M TAKING TIME OFF TO ASSIST MY WIFE FROM BABY BONDING TIME TO HELP HER WITH BOTH BOTH OUR SONS, WHICH IS THE NEWBORN AND K.J.

THAT YOU JUST SEEN. AND FROM THAT TIME PERIOD, I CAN START GETTING THINGS IN MOTION BECAUSE I'LL BE IN HOME TO REALLY FOCUS ON TAKING CARE OF THIS ONE PARTICULAR ISSUE AND ANY OTHER THING THAT NEEDS TO GET DONE AS WELL.

IF THEY ADVISE ME THAT IT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

YEAH. YEAH. SO.

OKAY. THAT SOUNDS THAT SOUNDS GOOD.

YOU SAID YOU SHOULD BE DONE BY APRIL, SO I'LL GIVE YOU A FIVE MONTH EXTENSION, WHICH IS APRIL 12TH, 2025.

OKAY. AND THEN YOU KNOW, IF THINGS ARE AS LONG AS YOU'RE MAKING PROGRESS AND, YOU KNOW, MAYBE SOMETHING COMES UP BECAUSE THINGS ALWAYS COME UP.

IF YOU IF YOU NEED SOME MORE TIME, YOU KNOW, WE CAN WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT.

BUT I THINK THAT'LL PROBABLY THAT'LL PROBABLY DO THE TRICK FOR YOU.

SO OKAY. SO THE COMPLIANCE DATE IS SET.

AND THESE ARE BOTH RELATED RIGHT.

CORRECT. YEAH.

OKAY. SO YOU HAVE TWO VIOLATIONS ON HERE, BUT THEY'LL BOTH BE RESOLVED WHEN YOU, WHEN YOU, WHEN YOU FIX EVERYTHING.

SO. YES. SO THE DEADLINE THE, THE I'M EXTENDING THE DEADLINE TO APRIL 12TH, 2025.

AND IT'LL BE AFTER THAT.

EVERY DAY THAT THE STATE IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WILL BE A $50 A DAY PER PER FINE.

YES, SIR. PER VIOLATION.

THANKS. OKAY.

SO GOING BACK TO AMEND THE ORDER FOR THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES.

SINCE WE ADDED THIS CASE, THE CITY IS REQUESTING THE CODE ENFORCEMENT SPECIAL MAGISTRATE FINE ALL RESPONDENTS OR CASES LISTED ON THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES REPORT UNLESS PREVIOUSLY HEARD AND NONCOMPLIANCE FOR THE PERIOD STATED ON THE REPORT, AND IMPOSE THE FINES LISTED ON THE REPORT.

I FIND ALL RESPONDENTS AND CASES LISTED ON THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES, REPORT IN NONCOMPLIANCE FOR THE PERIOD STATED ON THE REPORT, AND IMPOSE THE FINES AS LISTED ON THE REPORT DATED NOVEMBER 13TH, 2024.

ALL RIGHT. CONTINUING ON WITH THE HEARINGS, OUR NEXT CASE IS CB 2535624 AT 775 TEAL STREET SOUTHEAST.

AND THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELICA SNEED, AND SABRINA IS FILLING IN FOR HER TODAY.

TEAL.

THANKS. SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CUT OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THIS CASE IS.

THEY'RE STILL IN VIOLATION.

THEY'RE BRINGING IN DIRT THERE.

THEY HAVE COMMERCIAL VEHICLES THERE AND SO FORTH.

THE OWNERS ARE NOT HERE, BUT THERE ARE NEIGHBORS THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK AND ASK THAT THIS BE DEALT WITH IN A MORE HARSH MANNER. THIS IS NOT MY AREA, SO I APOLOGIZE, BUT IT'S APPARENTLY BEEN BEFORE THE BOARD PREVIOUS, AND NOW IT'S.

THEY CLEARED IT UP AND NOW THEY'VE STARTED IT AGAIN, SO.

[00:40:03]

OKAY, WELL THIS IS A REPEAT VIOLATION WHERE THE OWNER IS NOT HERE TO TALK, SO I'M GOING TO JUST FIND THEM IN VIOLATION OF EVERYTHING.

SO I DON'T I CAN'T TO THE TO THE NEIGHBORS THAT WANT TO SPEAK.

I CAN'T GET ANY HARSHER THAN THAT.

SO I DON'T REALLY WANT TO TAKE UP ANYONE'S TIME.

IT'S IT'S.

EXCUSE ME. IT'S NOT A REPEAT AS IN A REPEAT THAT SHE WROTE IT UP THAT WAY.

IT'S. THEY DID COME.

I DON'T KNOW THAT THEY WERE FOUND IN VIOLATION.

I KNOW THAT THEY HAVE BEEN CITED, THAT THEY CLEARED IT UP, AND THEN NOW WE HAVE TO BRING IT BACK AGAIN.

BUT IT IS SOMEONE THAT I THINK SEVERAL OFFICERS HAD HAVE HAD TO DEAL WITH AT DIFFERENT POINTS IN TIME.

SO YEAH, SHORT COMPLIANCE I FIND WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

OKAY. YEAH. THE COMPLIANCE DATE HERE IS OCTOBER 17TH, 2024, AND I'M FINE WITH LEAVING IT JUST LIKE THAT.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. NOW, THE NEIGHBORS THAT WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU, YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO SPEAK.

SO YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME UP AND SAY SOMETHING.

BUT JUST UNDERSTAND, I.

I CAN'T GET ANY HARSHER THAN THAT.

SO THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S AS MUCH AS I CAN DO.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

OKAY. WOULD ANYBODY LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ONE? OKAY. GOOD AFTERNOON.

GOOD AFTERNOON. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD.

EDMUNDO NEVAREZ. OKAY.

AND I LIVE IN FOUR, FIVE, ONE ALISEO AVENUE, SOUTHEAST PALM BAY, FLORIDA.

AND THE SITUATION THAT I WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT.

I ALREADY HEARD THAT THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT THE REPEAT VIOLATORS.

AND IT'S THE IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.

AND EVEN THOUGH THAT I UNDERSTOOD THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL SEVERE FINES, SOMEHOW THEY STILL PAYING THOSE FINES.

AND THIS KEEPS REPEATING ITSELF IS LIKE A CIRCLE THAT IT DOESN'T END.

I LEAVE TO PRESENT THE SITUATION TO YOU.

I LEAVE A LEFT SIDE TO MY HOUSE.

THERE'S AN EMPTY LOT THAT BELONGS TO HER LAND CLEANING COMPANY.

AND WHAT THEY DO OVER THERE IS THEY DUMP DIRT.

WHEN THEY HAVE DIRT LEFT OVER FROM SOME OTHER PLACES, THEY DUMP IT THERE.

SO WHEN THEY NEED DIRT, THEY GO RIGHT BACK THERE AND THEY TAKE IT OUT.

SO THEY'RE USING THAT AS A STORAGE OF DIRT, ALSO AS A HEAVY MACHINERY.

I HAVE MANY PROOF VIDEOS THAT I CAN PRESENT TO YOU WHILE THEY'LL DO THAT.

THE DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE IS IT'S ALWAYS FILTHY.

IT'S CRACKING.

CRACKING THE STREET AND THE HOUSE VIBRATES WHEN THEY'RE WORKING THERE.

THE LIST GOES ON AND ON AND ON AND ON.

SO I'M SEEKING HELP.

OKAY. UNFORTUNATELY, SIR, THIS ISN'T THE FORUM FOR THAT.

YOU KNOW, WE'RE HERE.

WE'RE WE'RE EMPOWERED TO ENFORCE THE THE CODE, THE PALM BAY CITY CODE.

IT SOUNDS LIKE MAYBE YOU'VE GOT SOME OTHER ISSUES THAT THAT'S JUST NOT NOT WHAT WE CAN DO HERE.

ALL. ALL I CAN DO IS FIND SOMEONE IN VIOLATION OF THE CODE AND THEN FIND THEM ACCORDING TO WHAT THE CODE ALLOWS US TO DO.

AND WE'VE ALREADY BASICALLY GIVEN THEM THE HARSHEST PENALTY WE CAN IN THIS FORUM.

SO I'VE DONE I UNDERSTAND YOUR FRUSTRATION, BUT, I MEAN, THAT'S THAT'S AS FAR AS I CAN, I CAN GO.

SO I KNOW MY HANDS ARE TIED ON THIS FORM.

DO YOU THINK. IS IT DOABLE? LIKE, IF I SEEK, LIKE, ON A PRIVATE SECTOR? WELL, I CAN'T I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANY LEGAL ADVICE FROM UP HERE, BUT YOU KNOW, I'M.

I'M JUST JUST TELLING YOU THAT MAYBE YOU'VE GOT.

MAYBE YOU HAVE SOME OTHER AVENUES, BUT IT'S JUST NOT.

NOT HERE.

AND ONE LAST THING.

I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF FINES ARE THEY GIVING THEM? IS IT I, I DON'T KNOW THE AMOUNTS OR JUST TO BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A VERY GOOD COMPANY.

I MEAN, THAT THEY, THEY HAVE PROFITS.

SO MY THINKING IS THEY, THEY HAVE NO ISSUES PAYING WHATEVER FINES THEY'RE BEING GIVEN THEM.

SOME SOMETIMES THAT'S THE CASE, BUT WE STILL ARE.

OUR HANDS ARE TIED WITH THE AMOUNT OF FINES.

YOU KNOW, WE CAN'T CAN'T FIND SOMEONE $1 MILLION A DAY.

SO. OKAY, WELL, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

NO PROBLEM. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I DO HAVE TO ASK FOR A CORRECTION ON THIS.

IT WAS THE OTHER ONE THAT I LOOKED AT FOR REPEAT.

SO THIS WOULD NOT QUALIFY AS A REPEAT BECAUSE IT DID NOT GET A FINE FROM THE PREVIOUS BOARD.

THEY TOOK CARE OF IT BEFORE IT WAS ASSIGNED A FINE.

SO CAN YOU GIVE THEM? IT WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A NEW COMPLIANCE DATE WITH A FINE FOR THIS PARTICULAR CASE.

[00:45:10]

WHICH WOULD HAVE TO BE AFTER TODAY'S BOARD DATE.

SO, I MEAN, YOU COULD GIVE THEM THE FIVE DAY COMPLIANCE DATE, BUT WE CAN'T GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL OCTOBER 17TH BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE THE HEARING.

OH, GOTCHA.

OKAY. SO WELL, I GUESS WE'LL SET THE COMPLIANCE DATE FOR TODAY, THEN.

OKAY. $50 WILL DO.

$50 A DAY PER.

PER VIOLATION.

ANOTHER ONE? NO.

IT'S VAL. OH.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CV 2535124 AT 2003 MICHAEL'S DRIVE NORTHEAST.

AND THE CODE OFFICER IS VALERIE PRESENTS.

VALERIE PRESENTS CODE COMPLIANCE DIVISION MANAGER.

THE VIOLATIONS ON THIS PROPERTY ARE STILL THE SAME.

I DID RECEIVE AN EMAIL FROM THE OWNER TODAY ASKING FOR ANOTHER TWO MONTHS.

WHAT IS THE VIOLATION? HE HAD THE TALL GRASS AND WEEDS AND THE JUNK VEHICLE IN THE DRIVEWAY.

THIS IS THE GENTLEMAN THAT WE HAD TO RESEND THE NOTICE TO.

OKAY, SO WE GOT EXTRA TIME BECAUSE WE HAD TO RESEND THE NOTICE.

HE GOT EXTRA TIME BECAUSE OF THE HURRICANE.

AND NOW HE HE'S ASKING FOR ANOTHER TWO MONTHS.

AND HE SAID THE GRASS IS CUT.

AND I WAS THERE LAST WEEK AND IT'S NOT CUT.

OKAY. I'M SORRY, BUT I'M GOING TO HAVE TO REJECT HIS REQUEST.

IS THERE A COMPLIANCE DATE IN THE NOTICE? YES. HIS COMPLIANCE DATE WAS OCTOBER 4TH.

OKAY. AND YOU RE-INSPECTED IT? WHEN? LAST WEEK.

LAST WEEK. OKAY.

I MEAN, OCTOBER 4TH.

CAN WE DO THAT? WELL, THIS IS THE ONE THAT WE HAD TO RESEND THE NOTICE BECAUSE THE DATE WASN'T ON THE.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S WE'LL SET THE COMPLIANCE DATE TODAY.

NOVEMBER 13TH.

AND THEN $50 A DAY AFTER THAT.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB 2528024 AT 1186 GLANCY AVENUE NORTHWEST.

THE COURT OFFICER IS ANJELICA SNEED, AND SABRINA IS FILLING IN FOR HER.

DID CAN YOU HEAR NANCY OVER THE OTHERS? I DON'T KNOW. THERE'S 1196 ALSO.

THAT'S NOT YOU. OKAY.

VALERIE, CODE COMPLIANCE DIVISION MANAGER.

I'M SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF SABRINA.

SHE IS WORKING WITH ANOTHER CITIZEN.

SO THIS WAS FOR TALL GRASS AND WEEDS AND TRASH AND DEBRIS.

AND I BELIEVE THERE IS A PROPERTY MANAGER HERE TO SPEAK.

IF I COULD HAVE THE. CAN I HAVE THE FILE, PLEASE?

[00:50:01]

THANKS. FREQUENT FLIER.

CAN YOU PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME? KIM LEWIS.

OKAY. SO I'M JUST GOING TO GET IT CUT.

TWO WEEKS WOULDN'T EVEN TAKE THAT LONG.

WHAT'S TODAY? WEDNESDAY.

OKAY. PROBABLY BY, LIKE, MONDAY OR TUESDAY.

IT'LL BE DONE. I'M GOING TO MAKE A WORK ORDER TODAY.

OKAY. THIS ONE'S BEEN BEEN ON THE BOOKS FOR A LITTLE BIT, THOUGH, RIGHT? I THINK IT'S OCCUPIED, SO IT'S REALLY GETTING THE RESIDENTS TO MAINTAIN IT.

WE I'M GOING TO GET A CUT AND JUST CHARGE THE RESIDENT BACK, BUT IT'S GETTING THEM TO MAINTAIN THE BEHAVIOR AGAIN AND CUT.

OKAY. BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS ACCUMULATION OF TRASH AND DEBRIS? WE'LL JUST GET IT REMOVED AND CHARGE THEM BACK THE SAME.

OKAY.

IS THERE. I MEAN, SO IT LOOKS LIKE THE DATE THE STATEMENT WAS FROM AUGUST.

SO THE THE FIRST TIME YOU WERE I GUESS THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN AT THE THIS IS THE FIRST DATE TO BE CORRECTED WAS SEPTEMBER 3RD. AND SO I'M, YOU KNOW, I GOT THIS REVISED HEARING DATE, SO THE HEARING WOULD HAVE BEEN IN OCTOBER.

WAS THERE ANYTHING KEEPING YOU GUYS FROM TAKING CARE OF IT DURING THAT TIME? I MEAN, I WISH THEY WERE MORE COMPLIANT MORE OFTEN.

OKAY. COULD YOU GET SOMEONE OUT THERE TO MOW IT THIS WEEK? OH. OF COURSE. OKAY.

YEAH. ALL RIGHT.

I'LL GIVE YOU SEVEN DAYS, THEN.

PERFECT. NOVEMBER 20TH.

FOR THE EXTENSION.

AND THEN $50 A DAY FOR EACH OF THOSE VIOLATIONS AFTER THAT.

THANK YOU. NO PROBLEM.

ALL RIGHT. OUR NEXT ONE IS CB 2526824 AT 1868 SECOND STREET NORTHWEST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELICA SNEED.

AND SABRINA IS FILLING IN FOR HER TODAY.

NANCY.

YES. SABRINA NICHOLSON, CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

SHE'S HERE TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.

OKAY. AND WHAT'S THE VIOLATION? OKAY. YES.

SURE. HI.

MY NAME IS JESSICA WILSON.

THIS IS MY MOTHER, SUE, THE HOMEOWNER, SPEAKING ON HER BEHALF TODAY.

OKAY. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE FILE, WE HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY TALL WEEDS AND GRASS.

WE HAD A RELIABLE LAWN COMPANY FOR A WHILE THAT UNFORTUNATELY SHUTTERED.

WE HAVE BOTH BEEN DEALING WITH HEALTH AND DISABILITY ISSUES.

I ACTUALLY HAVE SOMEBODY COMING BY THE HOUSE TODAY TO EVALUATE FOR A FULL YARD CLEANUP.

PART OF THE DELAY IN GETTING RELIABLE SERVICES JUST A LACK OF AVAILABILITY.

HOWEVER, WE DO ALSO UNFORTUNATELY HAVE A BEE COLONY THAT HAS TAKEN UP RESIDENCE IN OUR OUTSIDE GARAGE, WHICH I HAVE A COMPANY THAT HAVE REACHED OUT TO FOR MITIGATION OF THAT MAKE IT A LITTLE BIT MORE WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT FOR ANY LAWN CARE COMPANIES TO COME OUT AND HELP US OUT.

BUT I DO HAVE SOMEBODY LARRY LARRY CLYDE COMING OUT THIS AFTERNOON TO EVALUATE, TO GET AT LEAST THE FRONT YARD CLEANED UP BEFORE WE DO A MAJOR OVERHAUL OF THE BACKYARD.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

HAS HE GIVEN YOU AN IDEA OF HOW LONG THAT'LL TAKE?

[00:55:01]

SO, MR. CLYDE IS A 1 TO 2 MAN OPERATION.

HE CAN PROBABLY GET THE FRONT YARD IN COMPLIANCE WITHIN A WEEK.

AS FAR AS THE BACK YARD, BECAUSE OF THE DEGREE OF OVERGROWTH, IT'S GOING TO REQUIRE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A CREW, WHICH WILL TAKE US A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO HIRE SOMEBODY.

WE'VE I'VE GOT A COUPLE OF ESTIMATES THAT I'M WAITING ON FOR GETTING THAT DEALT WITH, BUT IN TERMS OF GETTING THE FRONT YARD IN COMPLIANCE, HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE WEEK.

OKAY. AND IT'S HARD TO TELL FROM THESE PICTURES, BUT DO YOU IS THE BACKYARD ENCLOSED WITH A FENCE? IT IS. OKAY.

SO SABRINA JUST GOT A QUICK QUESTION.

SO DOES DOES THIS VIOLATION INCLUDE THE BACKYARD? BECAUSE, I MEAN, THE PICTURES ARE ALL IN THE FRONT YARD, AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S IN IT'S IN THE BACKYARD OR THE BACKYARD IS ENCLOSED IN A FENCE.

SO I WAS JUST JUST CURIOUS BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'LL TAKE A LITTLE LONGER TO DO THE WHOLE THING.

AGAIN, I'M NOT 100% SURE, BUT ANYTHING THAT'S VISIBLE FROM THE ROAD NEEDS VISIBLE FROM THE ROAD.

OKAY. YES.

OKAY. SO WHEN YOU SAY THE THE GENTLEMAN YOU WERE GOING TO TALK TO CAN GET THE FRONT YARD DONE IN A WEEK.

DOES THAT IS THAT EVERYTHING THAT'S VISIBLE FROM THE ROAD? YES. OKAY.

TO A CHAIN LINK FENCE.

NO, IT'S A IT'S A SIX FOOT PRIVACY WOOD FENCE.

OKAY. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM GIVING YOU AN EXTENSION UNDER THAT CIRCUMSTANCES.

SO LET'S. IT SOUNDS LIKE IF I GIVE YOU A TEN DAY EXTENSION, YOU CAN GET THE GUY OUT THERE TO MOW.

EVERYTHING THAT'S VISIBLE FROM THAT WOULD BE MY SINCERE HOPE.

YES. OKAY. ALL RIGHT, SO LET'S DO THAT.

I'LL GIVE YOU A TEN DAY EXTENSION TILL NOVEMBER 23RD, 2024.

AND THEN IT'S $50 A DAY FOR EVERY DAY.

IT'S NOT IN COMPLIANCE. AFTER THAT, I GOT TO GO OUT THERE WITH SCISSORS AND CUT IT MYSELF.

I'LL DO IT. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. NO PROBLEM.

THERE WE GO. OKAY.

THANK YOU. NOW.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB (252)Ā 592-4872.

VANCE CIRCLE NORTHEAST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS.

VALERIE. CODE COMPLIANCE DIVISION MANAGER.

THE PROPERTY AT 872 VANCE CIRCLE IS CITED FOR TALL GRASS AND WEEDS.

AND APPARENTLY THERE'S A POND THAT'S NOT BEING MAINTAINED.

I'VE HAD, OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, CONTINUAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE GRASS.

AND EVERY TIME THEY DO COME IN COMPLIANCE.

BUT IT TAKES BEING CITED AND THE NEIGHBORS AROUND WANTED IT TO COME TO THE BOARD BECAUSE SHE'S JUST NOT MAINTAINING IT.

AND I BELIEVE SHE'S HERE.

OKAY. CAN I HAVE THE FOLDER, PLEASE? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. GO AHEAD.

I HAVE PHOTOS FROM THIS MORNING.

IF YOU COULD PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD.

CHARLOTTE BOWER. OKAY.

OKAY. SO YOU'VE GOT PHOTOS FROM THIS MORNING, AND THEY'RE OF, I GUESS, OF THE YARD.

THE YARD IS CUT.

OKAY. AND I'M HOPING I CAN PROVE THAT.

AND THAT'LL BE ABOUT IT.

BUT I CAN EXPLAIN WHY THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS.

OKAY. GO AHEAD.

MY MY GOLDEN RETRIEVER, WHO I'D HAD SINCE I WAS 15.

HE HAD CANCER, AND HE NEEDED A LOT OF HELP.

SO THAT WAS THAT WAS JUST MOST OF WHY I WASN'T KEEPING UP WITH IT.

AND THE I REDUCED MY HOURS WITH WORK TO SPEND HIS FINAL DAYS WITH HIM.

THAT BECAME A BIG FINANCIAL HARDSHIP.

MY MY LAWN MOWER BATTERIES DIED.

I'M AN ONGOING CUSTOMER SERVICE THING WITH RYOBI.

AND I ALSO DO LIKE TO KEEP IT A LITTLE LONG BECAUSE I LIKE BEING A POLLINATOR SANCTUARY.

AND I LIKE THE BUMBLEBEES AND AND BUTTERFLIES, SO, SO I HAVE TO BE REALLY ON IT SO IT DOESN'T CROSS THE LINE.

THOSE ARE THE REASONS.

BUT I'M YOU KNOW, THAT PERIOD IS OVER, AND IT WON'T BE A PROBLEM NOW.

OKAY. SO WHAT ABOUT THIS POND? HOW IS IT'S IT'S A POOL THAT IS SOMETIMES ON THE CUSP OF GREEN.

[01:00:02]

BUT IT WILL NOT.

IT'S IT'S GOOD NOW. IT WON'T BE A PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE.

OKAY. SO.

SO YOU'VE GOT THE GRASS MOWED IN THE POND.

IF WE WENT OUT AND CHECKED THE POND TODAY, IT WOULD PASS.

IT'S A POOL.

IT'S A POOL.

OH, IT'S A POOL. YEAH. OKAY.

YEAH. YEAH. OKAY.

IT DOES NEED A LITTLE BIT MORE WORK, BUT IT WILL NOT BE AN ONGOING ISSUE.

OKAY. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN BEFORE THE.

THIS BOARD? THIS IS THE FIRST.

AND I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE OR THERE WERE ANY COMPLAINTS.

LIKE, MY PREFERENCE IS TO KEEP IT LONG BECAUSE THAT'S.

I LIKE IT TO FLOWER, BUT NOT GET OUT OF CONTROL.

SO IT MIGHT BE A PREFERENCE ISSUE, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WAS GETTING TO.

IT'S A MIRACLE THAT I SAW THIS LETTER.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WAS AT THIS LEVEL.

OKAY. DO YOU MIND IF WE CAN WE HOLD ON TO THESE? OKAY. WELL, I MEAN, IF THE PROPERTY IS IN COMPLIANCE, AS SHE SAYS TODAY. THAT'S FROM THIS MORNING.

WE JUST NEED TO GET SOMEONE OUT THERE TO.

OKAY. HOW LONG WILL THAT TAKE? I'LL DO IT TOMORROW. TOMORROW.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT THEN, LET'S I'LL GIVE YOU A TWO DAY EXTENSION SO THAT THEY CAN COME OUT AND INSPECT IT.

OKAY. BECAUSE WE CAN'T, YOU KNOW, WE CAN'T CLOSE IT OUT UNTIL IT'S BEEN CONFIRMED THAT THAT THE VIOLATION IS NO LONGER THERE.

OKAY. SO WHAT'S WHAT'S TODAY, THE 13TH? SO WE'LL SET YOUR DATE OF COMPLIANCE AT NOVEMBER 15TH, AND THAT'LL GIVE THEM TIME TO COME OUT, INSPECT IT, AND IF IT'S IN, YOU KNOW, PICTURES LOOK LIKE IT'S LESS THAN 12IN.

I MEAN, IT'S CLOSE, BUT YOU.

SO I'M JUST TELLING YOU, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, THE, THE WHOLE LIKE, BEING A POLLINATOR SANCTUARY, IT'S REALLY, REALLY IMPORTANT.

IMPORTANT TO ME. AND IF AND I HAVE REALLY, REALLY BAD SOIL, IF I KEEP IT SHORT, SHORT? IT TURNS INTO A TOTAL BEACH.

ALL MY SOIL RUNS OFF LIKE I I DO, I DO MAINTAIN MY YARD.

IT'S IT'S A PREFERENCE DIVIDE.

OKAY. YEAH.

I MEAN, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE.

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU BROUGHT IT INTO COMPLIANCE, SO OH I ALSO, I ALSO HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH AN ELDERLY NEIGHBOR THAT HAS MADE FALSE REPORTS IN THE PAST. I HAD MICE FOUR YEARS AGO, HAD A TRUCK OUT FRONT, AND SHE RAN WITH THAT.

IT WAS LIKE A ONE WEEK ISSUE THAT I HIRED A COMPANY AND GOT IT DEALT WITH.

BUT THEN SHE CALLED THE STATE OF FLORIDA AND AND MADE UP STUFF.

SO THAT'S A THING.

OKAY. WELL, YOU KNOW, WE'RE WE'RE ONLY HERE TO DEAL WITH, WITH THESE TWO THINGS THAT THIS IS ALL I'VE GOT AUTHORITY FOR.

BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU BROUGHT IT INTO COMPLIANCE.

SO WE'LL SET YOUR COMPLIANCE DATE FOR THE 15TH.

THEY'LL GIVE THEM TIME TO COME AND INSPECT IT, AND THEN IF IT.

BUT IF IT DOESN'T PASS INSPECTION, IT'S $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT, THAT IT'S NOT IN COMPLIANCE.

I JUST MEANT SOME COMPLAINTS MAY BE WARRANTED.

SOME MIGHT NOT BE.

THAT'S. MOST OF MY NEIGHBORS.

JUST COME TALK TO ME.

I UNDERSTAND, BUT THE THE ONLY THING THAT REALLY MATTERS AT THIS POINT IS THE INSPECTION OF THOSE TWO ITEMS. SO. SO THAT'S IT? YEP. SO WE'RE SET.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB 2535424 AT 2824 WANDA AVENUE NORTHEAST.

THE COURT OFFICER IS VALERIE.

PRESENT. VALERIE PRESIDES CODE COMPLIANCE DIVISION MANAGER.

THE PROPERTY AT 2824.

WANDA. I KNOW WE HAVE SOME WITNESSES HERE TO TESTIFY.

THE OWNER HAS BROUGHT IN A MANUFACTURER OR MOBILE HOME, AND IT'S JUST PUT IT ON THE PROPERTY.

NO PERMITS WERE EVER PULLED.

NOTHING. HE'S NOT CONNECTED TO WATER? NOTHING. NOW, APPARENTLY HE HAS TENTS OUT THERE WITH HOMELESS PEOPLE.

I WAS JUST ADVISED.

AND SO HE'S BEING CITED FOR THE MOBILE HOME IN A ZONED AREA THAT'S RESIDENTIAL.

SINGLE FAMILY, NOT FOR MOBILE HOMES.

OKAY. I DO HAVE THE ASSISTANT BUILDING CHIEF OFFICIAL, SCOTT STAFFORD, HERE IF YOU NEED TO TALK TO HIM REGARDING THIS CASE.

AND THEN I HAVE THE TWO WITNESSES THAT WANT TO TESTIFY.

OKAY. CAN I HAVE THE FOLDER? HELLO? MANOLO ALFARO.

I BEEN IN FRONT OF THE MAGISTRATE BECAUSE I PURCHASED THE PROPERTY NEXT DOOR TO IT.

OKAY. SINCE THIS GENTLEMAN HAS PARKED THIS DOUBLE WIDE, SPLIT DOWN THE MIDDLE, WHICH IS STILL SPLIT DOWN THE MIDDLE.

HE HAS BEEN TOLD BY THE POLICE AND BY THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.

IT IS CONDEMNED.

HE STILL GOES IN AND OUT OF THE PROPERTY.

[01:05:01]

THE STRUCTURE.

HE HAS TURNED IT INTO A HOMELESS CAMP.

THERE'S A PARTY TENT IN THE BACK.

THERE'S A PARTY TENT IN THE FRONT.

AND IT'S APPROXIMATELY FROM ME TO YOUR STAGE.

FROM THE ROAD.

THESE PEOPLE, AS MENTIONED, THERE IS NO SEWER.

THEREFORE, IT'S REALLY STARTING TO SMELL.

AND WHEN THE WIND BLOWS A CERTAIN DIRECTION THEY USE THE POND IN THE BACK AS A BATHING FOR THEMSELVES, FOR THEIR LAUNDRY AND THEIR DOGS.

AS I MENTIONED, IT IS NOW A HOMELESS CAMP TO LIVE IN THE BACK FOR TWO, THREE AND A HALF LIVE IN THE FRONT AND THE HALF IS THE MR. MITTENS SIGNIFICANT OTHER COMES AND GOES.

OKAY. ANY ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO ADD TO THIS ROSY PICTURE? I. OH, I COULD GO ON, BUT THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT.

I HAVE CONTACTED I, THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH BECAUSE OF THE SMELL.

THEY HAVE NO SEWER FACILITIES.

I HAVE CONTACTED DCF BECAUSE I WAS CONCERNED FOR THE OLD MAN'S SAFETY.

COME TO FIND OUT, HE HAS INVITED ALL OF THEM TO STAY ON HIS PROPERTY.

OKAY. OKAY.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TESTIMONY.

THANK YOU.

OH, I HAVE PHOTOS.

OH, WELL, WE HAVE I MEAN, I'VE GOT ALL I NEED IN THE RECORD HERE.

YOU SAID THERE WAS SOMEONE FROM THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.

SCOTT STAFFORD, THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR FOR BUILDING.

SIR, IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME UP AND.

OKAY.

I DIDN'T THINK YOU WANTED TO DO IT.

I HAD NOT ANTICIPATED ON SPEAKING, SO I DO NEED TO BE SWORN IN.

IF YOU COULD JUST RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.

DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU GOD? I DO, THANK YOU. OKAY.

SO, YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO FIND THEM IN VIOLATION.

SET THE SET THE COMPLIANCE DATE FOR TODAY AND SET THE FINES.

BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S GOING TO DO ANYTHING, SO I WAS JUST WONDERING, IS THERE DOES THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT HAVE A, LIKE, IF YOU TALK TO THE POLICE OR IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN.

WE HAVE DONE THAT. WE'VE CONTACTED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

CODE ENFORCEMENT, FLORIDA BUILDING CODE.

WE REALLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING THAT WE COULD DO BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT IT IS A MOBILE HOME, WHICH THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE DOES NOT HAVE ANY JURISDICTION OVER.

WHEN HE DID MAKE APPLICATION, WE INFORMED HIM THAT IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO EVEN PERMIT BECAUSE ZONING WOULDN'T EVEN ALLOW IT THERE TO BEGIN WITH.

AND SO SINCE WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT ZONING PROCESS, WE WERE UNABLE TO ACCEPT HIS APPLICATION.

OKAY. OKAY.

YES. I HAVE CONTACTED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT REGARDING THE CAMPING RESIDING.

THEY WILL NOT PURSUE ANYTHING WITH HAVING EVERYONE THERE.

YEAH, I GUESS THAT'S PROBABLY MORE OF A SHERIFF'S.

THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING EITHER.

OKAY, WELL, I'LL DO EVERYTHING I CAN.

WHICH IS? I'LL FIND THEM IN VIOLATION.

SET THE COMPLIANCE DATE FOR TODAY, AND IT'S $50 A DAY FOR EACH VIOLATION.

FOR VIOLATION PER VIOLATION? YES.

OKAY. OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB 2536424 AND 882 NEW ZEALAND AVENUE NORTHWEST.

THE COURT OFFICER IS ANGELIKA SNEED AND SABRINA IS FILLING IN.

FOR NEW ZEALAND. I'M JUST GOING TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.

THANKS.

SABRINA NICHOLSON, CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

PROPERTY MANAGER, ARE YOU THE PROPERTY MANAGER? PROPERTY MANAGER IS HERE TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.

OKAY. KIRSTEN PALMER.

OKAY. YEAH.

SO THE CULVERT COLLAPSED WHEN THE ROOF GOT PUT ON.

[01:10:02]

THEY PULLED IN A DUMPSTER OVER IT, AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT DID IT IN.

SO I STARTED THE PERMIT PROCESS OCTOBER 16TH.

WE HAVE HAD JUST 110 DAY DELAY ON THAT WITH PAPERWORK, BUT SO I'VE PUSHED I'VE ALREADY HAVE A CONTRACTOR LINED UP A CONCRETE GUY.

WE PUSHED HIM BACK BECAUSE OF THE PERMIT DELAY, SO I'M PRETTY SURE A 30 DAY WILL DO US GOOD.

OKAY, SO YOU'VE TALKED TO THEM.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANY PROBLEM WITH LIKE, PAYMENTS OR.

NO, NO, IT'S BASICALLY JUST BEEN WAITING FOR THE PERMIT TO BE APPROVED.

IT'S GOT ALL THE YOU KNOW, I THINK WE HAVE JUST ONE MORE APPROVAL WE'RE WAITING ON.

OKAY. AND YOU NEED 30 DAYS.

DO YOU THINK 30 DAYS IS ENOUGH OR.

YEAH. WE IT'S THE CITY'S APPROVED THE SITE INSPECTIONS BEEN APPROVED, THAT IT WAS THE PUBLIC WORKS THAT I FORGOT TO ACTUALLY SAY ON THE PAPERWORK THE CULVERT NEEDS REPLACEMENT IS GOING TO BE REPLACED ON THE SURVEY.

SO I ADDED THAT IN THAT WILL BE THE DEADLINE FOR THAT APPROVAL IS NOW THE 19TH OR 21ST.

AND BETSY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID, IT LOOKS GOOD.

WE JUST HAVE TO WAIT THE TEN DAYS FOR IT.

SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S THE LAST THING ON THE PERMIT OR IF THERE'S MORE STEPS INVOLVED, BUT AS SOON AS IT'S AS SOON AS IT'S APPROVED, MY CONCRETE GUY IS READY TO GET IT DONE.

OKAY. AND DID HE SAY HOW LONG IT'LL IT'LL TAKE AFTER THAT ONE DAY DEMO AND THEN PROBABLY THREE DAYS IN TOTAL FOR IT TO BE DONE.

CAN'T DRIVE ON YET.

SO I MEAN, WORST CASE WITH THE HOLIDAYS COMING UP MAY BE A 40 DAY JUST TO BE SAFE, BUT 30 TO 40 DAYS.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

SO I GOT NO PROBLEM WITH 30 DAY EXTENSION FOR THAT.

SO WE'LL SET THE DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR DECEMBER 13TH, 2024, AND THEN $50 A DAY FOR THE VIOLATION EVERY DAY.

THAT'S NOT IN COMPLIANCE AFTER THAT.

OKAY. THANK YOU. OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CV 2528124 AT 976 LAMONT STREET NORTHWEST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELA SNEED AND SABRINA IS FILLING IN.

NO VEHICLE SHOULD BE USED FOR A LIVING.

THAT THE OTHER ONE PARKING IN THE RIGHT OF WAY.

THE PICTURES I SEE ARE.

I JUST SEE THE TRAILER.

YEAH, IT'S RIGHT BEHIND.

HOLD ON. I'M TALKING TO THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE IS GONE FROM THE RIGHT OF WAY.

DID YOU MOVE IT? NO, IT'S IN THE BACKYARD.

OKAY. SHE DID MOVE THE ONE FROM THE RIGHT OF WAY INTO THE BACKYARD.

ISN'T THAT MY PROPERTY? OKAY. IS THAT VIOLATION HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF? THE ONLY ONE LEFT WOULD BE THE RV.

OKAY. IS THAT SO? THAT'S THAT. THAT'S OKAY. THAT THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN MOVED TO THE BACK YARD.

THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS CITED FOR.

WAS IT BEING IN THE RIGHT OF WAY? IF IT'S IN, IF THE.

SHE HASN'T ABIDED BY THE CORRECT PARKING.

IT'LL HAVE TO BE RECITED UNDER A DIFFERENT ORDINANCE.

GOTCHA. IS THIS THE.

IS THIS THE PICTURE FOR THE PARKING AND THE RIGHT OF WAY? THE. THAT I DO NOT KNOW.

THAT WAS ANGELICA THAT TOOK THE PICTURES.

I'M SORRY. THAT'S OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. MA'AM, IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME UP AND SPEAK, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.

OKAY. LET ME TALK TO HIM.

OKAY. TELL ME YOUR NAME. YEAH, MY NAME IS HILDA RODRIGUEZ.

AND THIS IS THE THE FIRST VIOLATION.

THEY THEY PUT IT TO ME, THEY CLOSE THE CASE BECAUSE THEY FOUND ANOTHER VIOLATION.

AND NOW I RECEIVE ANOTHER ONE THAT SAYS I'M HERE.

THE THING IS, I HAVE TO ASK MY JOB TO COME HERE TO, YOU KNOW, PUT MY FACE AND DEFEND MYSELF.

THIS IS THE RV THAT WE HAVE, AND I KNOW THAT THEY SAY THAT THE BEST, YOU KNOW, WITHOUT COMMITTING VIOLATIONS, PARKING IN THE BACK YARD. RIGHT.

THAT'S THE RV PARKING IN THERE? NO ONE LIVING THERE.

WE DON'T USE IT FOR ANYTHING.

OKAY. AND I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY PUT VIOLATION, AND I DON'T FIND ANY.

I DON'T KNOW IF THE PICTURE CAN TELL YOU SOMETHING.

WELL, THE PICTURE JUST SHOWS THAT YOU HAVE AN RV.

[01:15:01]

YEAH. IT'S BEHIND THE FENCE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN CITED FOR.

THEY DID NOT CITE YOU FOR IMPROPERLY STORING THE RV BECAUSE IT'S BEHIND THE FENCE.

WELL, IT'S INSIDE MY PROPERTY.

YEAH. YEAH. I GET THAT, BUT THE THING THAT WAS CONCERNED WAS BECAUSE MY BROTHER IN LAW WAS PARKING HIS TRUCK, AND THE.

AND THE SITE DID NOT SUPPOSED TO BE PARKING.

BUT YOU'VE TAKEN CARE. WE FIXED IT.

WE FIXED THAT. OKAY.

SO WHY WHY WOULD SOMEONE CALL? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHY SOMEONE WOULD THINK SOMEONE.

YOU HAD PEOPLE LIVING IN YOUR RV? NO. NO ONE.

OKAY. HOW CAN PEOPLE CAN LIVE IN THERE? THAT'S NOT COMFORTABLE.

I HAVE A HOUSE WITH THREE BEDROOMS AND IT'S ENOUGH.

MY DAUGHTER MOVED OUT AND I GIVE IT TO MY BROTHER IN LAW.

THE TWO BEDROOMS THAT I HAVE AN EXTRA.

OKAY. YEAH. THERE IS NO WAY THEY CAN PEOPLE LIVING THERE.

OKAY. SABRINA ISN'T.

THIS ISN'T YOURS. BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY ANY IDEA WHY WE HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THERE WAS SOMEONE LIVING IN THE RV? I DO NOT.

WE CAN ALSO TABLE THIS UNTIL NEXT MONTH IF YOU'D LIKE TO GET MORE INFORMATION.

WELL. OR IF YOU FIND THAT IT'S NOT IN VIOLATION FROM THE PICTURES.

I'M LEANING TO.

NOT IN VIOLATION.

I MEAN, UNLESS THE.

I MEAN, I GUESS THIS CAME THROUGH AS A COMPLAINT.

SOMEONE LIKE A NEIGHBOR PROBABLY COMPLAINED.

PROBABLY SO.

IF I HAD A STATEMENT, AN AFFIDAVIT OR SOMETHING, SAYING I'VE SEEN SO AND SO LIVING HERE, THEN I WOULD I WOULD BE INCLINED TO FIND HER IN VIOLATION, YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS.

BUT BUT I DON'T SEE ANYTHING FROM IN HERE THAT THAT I THINK I CAN FIND HER IN VIOLATION FOR.

SO. AND YOU'VE ALREADY TESTIFIED THAT THE TRUCK'S GONE.

SO SO I'M GOING TO.

I'M GOING TO. NOW, THIS ONE, HAS THIS ONE ALREADY BEEN FOUND IN VIOLATION, OR IS THIS.

NO, THIS IS THE FIRST HEARING ON THIS.

OKAY. YEAH. SO I'M JUST GOING TO I'M GOING TO FIND IT.

IT'S NOT IN VIOLATION FOR FOR BOTH OF THEM OKAY.

OTHERWISE. IT WAS A.

OH. DO WE HAVE THE PATROLMAN HERE.

AND HE WROTE IT UP ON PATROL.

SO IT WASN'T A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE AREA.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

YEAH, I'M STILL GOING TO. I'M STILL GOING TO GO WITH WHAT I GOT, MA'AM.

IF SO, APPARENTLY THIS WAS BASED ON A ROUTINE PATROL.

IF THE PERSON WHO HAD MADE THE PATROL WAS HERE MIGHT HAVE HAD A DIFFERENT OUTCOME.

WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I HAVE AN OLD WHITE CAR IN THE BACK OF MY FENCE, AND I REALLY WANT TO PUT UP A PRIVACY FENCE AND KEEP IT, BECAUSE.

I'M SORRY. WELL, THAT'S THAT'S OKAY IF YOU NEED TO TAKE IT.

IF YOU NEED TO TAKE A MOMENT, WE CAN COME BACK TO YOU.

THAT'S. NO, I WANT TO FINISH.

OKAY. MY SON PASSED AWAY SEVEN YEARS AGO AND THAT WAS HIS CAR AND I CAN'T GET RID OF IT.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO PUT UP A PRIVACY FENCE, BUT I CALLED A FEW PEOPLE TO GET YOU KNOW, TO PUT UP THE FENCE. I HAD CALLED SOMEBODY FROM CODE ENFORCEMENT TO FIND OUT IF.

BECAUSE MY WHOLE HOUSE IS CHAIN LINK FENCE AND I HAVE THAT JUST LIKE SEVEN FEET THAT I NEED TO PUT UP A SIX FOOT, THEY TOLD ME.

[01:20:04]

SO I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD PUT THAT LITTLE CORN, IF I COULD PUT UP A VINYL OR WOOD SIX FEET TALL. AND.

THANK YOU. AND I'M SO SORRY.

AND IF I NEEDED TO PULL WHAT? YOU MAY CALL IT A PERMIT.

A PERMIT ALSO, I HAVE A GREAT CAR THAT'S SITTING IN THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE.

IT'S MY SON'S FRIEND'S CAR.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO REACH HIM TO COME MOVE THE CAR, BECAUSE SOMEBODY RAN INTO HIS CAR AND HE ASKED ME TO HOLD IT FOR HIM.

SOMEBODY HAD TOLD IT AWAY, AND THEN HE GOT IT BACK FROM THE TOW YARD, AND I CAN'T REACH HIM TO COME GET THE CAR.

SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THAT CAR.

AND I HAVE A BLACK CAR THAT'S MY OTHER SON'S CAR.

AND HE WANTED TO RESTORE THE CAR BECAUSE IT'S LIKE A HOOD, YOU MAY CALL IT, LIKE A PROJECT CAR OR A FANCY OLD CAR THAT HE WANTS TO RESTORE.

SO I WAS TOLD LAST YEAR THAT I COULD HAVE ONE CAR THAT'S NOT WORKING ON MY DRIVEWAY, BUT THIS YEAR THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CODE CHANGED, SO I HAVE TO MOVE THAT CAR.

SO I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD ALSO PUT THAT CAR BEHIND MY SIX FOOT FENCE SO I COULD KEEP BOTH MY SON'S CARS BACK THERE? THE GREAT CAR, I DON'T KNOW, I'M GOING TO GET RID OF IT.

I HAVE TWO CARS THAT'S WORKING, THAT'S SITTING IN FRONT ON THE ON THE ROADWAY.

WELL, IT'S NOT THE ROADWAY. IT'S THAT LITTLE CITY AREA THAT'S IN THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE.

ONE OF MY FRIENDS, SHE'S GOING TO COME GET ONE TODAY, AND I HAVE ONE UP FOR SALE ON CRAIGSLIST.

AND SOMEBODY INTERESTED IN.

WELL, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE, BUT I FINALLY GOT THE THEIR CERTIFICATES FROM THE DMV SO I COULD NOW SELL THE CARS.

OKAY. SO I JUST NEED SOME TIME TO GET MY FENCE ERECTED, AND I NEED TO KNOW IF I NEED TO PULL A PERMIT OR IF I CAN JUST PUT UP A SIX FOOT WOODEN FENCE OR VINYL FENCE WITHOUT HAVING TO PULL A PERMIT.

I'M PRETTY SURE YOU NEED TO GET A PERMIT, BUT YOU'D HAVE TO TALK WITH THE CITY ABOUT THAT.

YEAH, I HAD CALLED AND LEFT A MESSAGE, BUT NOBODY RETURNED MY CALL.

SO DO I JUST GO UPSTAIRS AND ASK THEM? I THINK SO. AND I WOULD LIKE TO GET LIKE MAYBE AT LEAST A TWO MONTH EXTENSION.

I JUST STARTED WORKING AGAIN SIX MONTHS AGO BECAUSE I WAS ON DISABILITY FOR LIKE SIX YEARS.

OKAY, SO IN THE PICTURES I'VE GOT, I'M LOOKING AT FOUR CARS.

IS THAT CORRECT? THE WHITE CAR.

THE GRAY CAR, TWO CARS AT THE FRONT.

YEAH, YEAH.

OKAY. DO YOU HAVE ANY ON STREET PARKING AVAILABLE? LIKE, COULD YOU MOVE, MOVE THESE VEHICLES, THE ONES THAT ARE OPERATING LIKE THE WHITE CAR THAT WAS YOUR SON'S.

IS THAT STILL WORKING? NO, IT'S IN THE BACKYARD.

OKAY. IT'S PROBABLY SUNK INTO THE GROUND ALREADY.

KIND OF. YEAH.

YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST THAT HE HAS HIS LAST DNA, AND THEY.

SOMETIMES I JUST GO IN THERE AND TOUCH THE WHEEL, AND MY EX-HUSBAND CALLS ME MORBID.

MAYBE I AM, BUT IT'S JUST SOMETIMES IT'S SO HARD TO LET GO YOU KNOW.

OKAY. SO WHAT NOW.

HIS FRIEND'S CAR.

WELL THAT, THAT CAR WAS I'M TRYING TO.

THAT'S THAT'S NOT MY DECEASED SON, SCOTT.

THAT'S MY OTHER SON'S FRIEND'S CAR.

AND I CAN'T REACH HIM.

HE'S A GUY WHO DRIVES ACROSS THE ROAD.

HE'S GOT A BIG TRAILER ON IT AND A DULY DUALLY TRUCK.

AND I LEFT HIM A MESSAGE TO COME TAKE HIS CAR AND PUT IT ON THE TRUCK AND MOVE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

BUT HE NEVER RESPONDED, AND I.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FIND HIM.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THE CAR.

OKAY. IS THAT CAR OPERATING? YES. SO COULD YOU.

COULD YOU MOVE IT TODAY IF YOU.

IF YOU NEEDED TO. YEAH.

OKAY, SO THAT TAKES CARE OF HALF OUR PROBLEM, RIGHT? IF WE CAN GET. OKAY.

DO WE KNOW HOW LONG THE PERMIT PROCESS TAKES FOR FENCES AND ALL THAT? EXCUSE ME? NO, I'M NOT SURE, BECAUSE SHE ALREADY HAS A FENCE.

SHE JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF SHE NEEDED ANOTHER PERMIT TO EXCHANGE OUT THE CHAIN LINK FOR PRIVACY.

FENCE. RIGHT. SHE DID TALK TO SOMEONE LAST WEEK.

WELL, SHE LEFT ME A MESSAGE, AND I FORWARDED HER THAT INFORMATION.

SHE. LIKE SHE SAID SHE DID CALL.

SHE HASN'T RETURNED THE CALL.

SO I WAS GOING TO LET DIRECTOR AFTER THE MEETING HERE, JUST TO GO UPSTAIRS AND TALK TO THEM DIRECTLY TO GET HER ANSWER.

[01:25:02]

OKAY. BUT I'M NOT SURE.

THE PERMANENT PROCESS, I'M ASSUMING MAYBE LESS THAN 30 DAYS TO PERMIT IT, BUT I BELIEVE YOU ALSO HAVE TO HAVE A SURVEY.

SURVEY THAT'S GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT.

RODNEY, THAT TAKES A LITTLE BIT LONGER RIGHT.

WELL I HOPE THAT DOES.

YEAH I'M SURE.

OKAY. I DON'T WANT TO DO MY WHOLE FENCE OVER.

I JUST WANT TO DO THAT SEVEN FOOT, BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TO DO THAT.

YEAH. OKAY.

SO I'M, I'M INCLINED TO GIVE YOU THE EXTENSION FOR THE TWO MONTHS THAT YOU NEED FOR THE FENCE, BUT I IT'S NOT GOING TO TAKE TWO MONTHS TO GET RID OF THAT CAR THAT'S IN THE FRONT OF YOUR YARD.

WHICH WHICH CAR? THE THE ONE THAT YOUR SON'S FRIENDS.

WELL, I'M THE GRAY CAR THAT'S SITTING IN FRONT OF MY GATE.

YEAH, IT'S HE'S HE'S I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO REACH HIM, BUT I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TRY TO REACH HIM.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TRY TO REACH HIM.

I YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO JUNK HIS CAR.

IT'S WORKING. YEAH, HE'S HE SHOULDN'T HAVE LEFT YOU IN THAT POSITION, THOUGH.

YEAH, I KNOW. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE TWO MONTH EXTENSION, BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE TRIED TO MAKE SOME PROGRESS ON THIS ISSUE.

SO. JANUARY 12TH, 2025 WILL BE THE NEW COMPLIANCE DATE.

AND THEN IT'S $50 A DAY PER DAY FOR FOR BOTH OF THOSE FOR EACH OF THOSE VIOLATIONS.

SO IT WOULD BE $100 A DAY.

OKAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

NO PROBLEM. DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR ANYTHING OR.

NOPE. THANK YOU. OKAY.

OUR NEXT CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB 2527324 AT 1516 GLEN COVE AVENUE NORTHWEST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELICA SNEED, AND SABRINA IS FILLING IT.

THANK YOU. SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY. THE WIFE AND THE SON ARE UP HERE OF THE ELDERS.

I DON'T BELIEVE SHE SPEAKS ENGLISH.

SHE'S GOING TO SPEAK FOR HER.

THE FATHER IS OUT OF TOWN.

CORRECT? CORRECT. AND SO.

BUT THEY ARE WORKING ON THE SITUATION.

ARE GOING TO BE ASKING FOR AN EXTENSION.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

FIRST YOU STATE YOUR NAME AND.

YES. SHE'S ON.

OKAY. GOOD AFTERNOON.

MY NAME IS ALEXANDER GUTIERREZ.

I'M WITH MY MOM, OLGA MIRANDA.

WE'RE HERE SEEKING FOR AN EXTENSION ON THE SITUATION WITH THE CARS.

WE. WHEN WE FIRST GOT THAT NOTICE, WE WERE ABLE TO REMOVE ALL OF THE CARS THAT WERE IN COMPLIANCE.

WE ASSUMED THAT WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP THE OTHER TWO CARS THAT ARE OPERATING WITHOUT A TAG, AS LONG AS THEY WERE PARKED.

WE ALSO DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY WERE SPECIFIC AREAS WHERE THEY HAD TO BE PARKED.

SO WE HAVE THEM IN AREAS WHERE THEY NEED TO BE MOVED, AND WE ALSO NEED TO EITHER DECIDE WHETHER ON GETTING THEM PLATED, INSURED AND GETTING THEIR TAGS, OR JUST JUNKING THEM AND GETTING RID OF THEM.

OKAY. OKAY.

I SEE. SO WHAT ABOUT THIS ACCUMULATION OF TRASH AND DEBRIS? HAS THAT ONE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF? YEAH. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT WAS PRIMARILY CITED FOR THE FIRST TIME.

WE. WHEN I FIRST SAW THE LETTER, I COULDN'T RECALL OF ANY TRASH THAT WE HAD ACCUMULATED.

THE ONLY ISSUE THAT I REMEMBERED WAS THE CARS.

OKAY, THERE'S A LOT OF CARS HERE.

YEAH. HOW MANY CARS DO YOU HAVE ON THE PROPERTY? RIGHT NOW THERE'S SIX.

OKAY. LOOKS LIKE THERE MIGHT BE A TRAILER ON THERE, TOO.

IS THAT BEHIND THE TREE? CORRECT. YEAH.

OKAY. SO THAT ONE NEEDS TO GO ALSO.

OKAY. OKAY.

WHAT ABOUT THIS? PERFORMING MAJOR VEHICLE REPAIRS IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA.

I'M ALSO NOT TOO SURE ABOUT THAT ONE.

I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S OR I HAVE.

[01:30:04]

I WASN'T GIVEN ANY INFORMATION ON WHAT THAT WAS BEING SAID ABOUT.

SO THE ONLY ONE I REALLY DO HAVE THE INFORMATION ON WAS THE CARS, BECAUSE WE DID HAVE THOSE CARS THERE.

OKAY. SO YOU'VE GOT.

SO BASICALLY YOU'VE GOT FOUR CARS YOU NEED TO GET RID OF.

IS THAT CORRECT? WELL TWO NOW.

THOSE MAY BE OLDER PHOTOS.

WE ONLY HAVE TWO CARS NOW.

WE GOT RID OF.

OH, NO. HOW MANY CARS WERE THERE BEFORE WE GOT? YEAH, WE HAD FOUR THAT WERE ON PROPERTY THAT WEREN'T ON THE DRIVEWAY.

WE'RE DOWN TO TWO, WHICH WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WERE ALLOWED TO HAVE.

WE DIDN'T KNOW, HOWEVER, THAT THEY NEEDED TAGS, INSURANCE AND PLATES.

GOTCHA. SO WE ONLY HAVE TWO AND THEN THE FOUR IN OUR DRIVEWAY.

OH, AND THE FOUR IN THE DRIVEWAY.

THOSE ARE ALL OPERABLE.

CORRECT. OKAY. WITH TAGS AND PLATES AND EVERYTHING.

OKAY. BUT THE THE CODE STILL DOES SAY A MAXIMUM OF TWO OPERABLE VEHICLES ARE PERMITTED TO BE PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE DRIVEWAY OPPOSITE THE FRONT DOOR.

OKAY. OKAY.

DO YOU HAVE DO YOU HAVE YOU LINED ANYONE UP TO TAKE THESE CARS OFF YOUR HANDS FOR YOU.

WE DEFINITELY CAN LINE SOMEONE UP.

IF WE WERE GIVEN AN EXTENSION OF 30 DAYS, I WOULD HAVE TO SPEAK TO MY FATHER ABOUT THAT.

WHEN HE COMES BACK. HE COMES BACK THIS SATURDAY, SO I'LL BE ABLE TO TALK ME AND MY MOM TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO HIM.

AND THEN WITHIN THOSE 30 DAYS, WE'D EASILY BE ABLE TO DECIDE WHETHER TO GET RID OF THEM OR GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS OF, YOU KNOW, GOING TO THE DMV AND GETTING THAT STUFF DONE. OKAY. WELL, BUT EVEN IF YOU GET THEM TAGGED, YOU STILL HAVE TO THEY STILL CAN'T BE THERE.

YOU KNOW, I MEAN, SO LIKE FOR THIS PICTURE, YOU KNOW.

OH YES. AND YOU KNOW, EVEN IF THAT CAR HAD A LICENSE AND REGISTRATION AND EVERYTHING, IT STILL CAN'T BE IN THAT SPOT.

YEAH. IT'D HAVE TO BE MORE.

DO YOU HAVE ON STREET PARKING THAT YOU CAN MOVE THEM TO OR.

I WAS TOLD THAT WE WERE ABLE TO PARK THEM TO THE SIDE OF OUR DRIVE.

SO I GUESS, FOR EXAMPLE, IF OUR DRIVEWAY WAS RIGHT HERE AT THE END, RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT HERE, WE'D BE ABLE TO PARK THEM. IS THAT CORRECT? DOES THAT SOUND RIGHT? BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD.

BUT. I KNOW THAT WE REDID OUR ORDINANCE TO WHERE YOU COULD PARK, BUT I THINK YOU HAD TWO CARS ON THE SIDE, TWO FOR ONE AND ONE.

BUT THIS HAD TO BE ON AN APPROVED SURFACE.

NOT NOT AT THIS POINT.

THEY HAVEN'T THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED IT AS FAR AS I KNOW.

BUT IT WOULD BE TWO ON ONE SIDE OR ONE ON ONE.

AND AND HE HE DOES.

I'VE EXPLAINED THAT TO HIM.

SO HE KNOWS WHERE TO MOVE THE ONES THAT HE HAS EXISTING ONCE HE GETS THE TAGS AND TITLE AND SO FORTH.

OKAY. OKAY.

AND THAT'S AND THEY CAN STILL DO THAT EVEN WITH THE FOUR IN THE DRIVEWAY.

THEY CAN HAVE AS MANY IN THE DRIVEWAY AS CAN FIT AS LONG AS THEY'RE OPERABLE.

GOTCHA. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. SHE SAID 30 DAYS IS WHAT YOU NEED.

YEAH, IT SHOULD BE MORE THAN ENOUGH.

OKAY. I'LL SET THE DATE FOR COMPLIANCE TO BE DECEMBER 13TH, 2024, AND THEN IT'S $50 A DAY PER VIOLATION AFTER THAT.

THAT IS NONCOMPLIANCE.

OKAY. AND FOR THE OTHER TWO VIOLATION WITH THOSE, DO WE KNOW IF THOSE ARE STILL IN EFFECT BECAUSE OF THAT OR COULD BE BECAUSE I'M NOT TOO SURE ABOUT THOSE VIOLATIONS.

WILL THE EXTENSIONS FOR ALL THREE.

IT'S FOR IT'S FOR EVERYTHING.

OKAY. YEAH. SO WHEN YOU WHEN YOU'VE GOT THE CARS TAKEN CARE OF I MEAN, THE THESE OTHER TWO SHOULD BE, SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF WITH THE, WITH THE SAME INSPECTION.

SO. OKAY.

YEAH. THANK YOU. NO PROBLEM.

THANKS. SORRY.

OUR LAST TWO MEMBERS IN THE AUDIENCE ARE GOING BACK TO AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES.

I'M SORRY. THE CODE OFFICER IS SABRINA PERKINS.

THIS IS.

THANKS. SABRINA NICHOLSON, SENIOR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

THIS IS A CASE THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE A WHILE.

HE IS HERE TO ASK FOR ANOTHER EXTENSION.

OKAY. AND THIS IS JUST.

THIS IS JUST TALL GRASS AND WEEDS AND TRASH AND DEBRIS.

OKAY. OKAY.

SIR, IF YOU PLEASE, STATE YOUR NAME.

JOHN CLAY. GOOD AFTERNOON.

GOOD AFTERNOON. I'M HERE BECAUSE I'M GETTING NOTICES.

I'M NOT AT THE PROPERTY.

I CARE FOR 104 YEAR OLD SENIOR AND I'M AT WHERE SHE RESIDES.

[01:40:07]

SO I ONLY GO OVER TO MY LOCATION TO CUT THE GRASS OR TO CHECK THE MAIL.

AND IN A LOT OF CASES, IT'S TWO WEEKS ROUGHLY.

AND THERE MIGHT BE A NOTICE THERE, SO I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT COMES.

SO TIME HAS ELAPSED BEFORE I ACTUALLY RECEIVE NOTICE THAT THERE'S A PROBLEM.

NOW, I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH ONE OF THE OFFICERS, AND SHE'S BEEN VERY KIND AND AND GENEROUS.

WE'VE HAD SOME ISSUES WITH WHETHER YOU KNOW, TROPICAL STORM HURRICANES AND THAT TYPE OF THING, BUT I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT I NEED TO DO. I GO OVER AND DO WHAT I THINK IS SUFFICIENT AND WHERE I FAIL TO DROP THE WHAT I END UP DROPPING THE BALL IS I DON'T MAKE CONTACT.

I'M THINKING EVERYTHING IS GOOD.

AND THEN I GET ANOTHER NOTICE THAT THIS DEBT IS STILL NOT WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

SO I NEED TO GO AHEAD AND FIND OUT FOR SURE WHAT I NEED TO DO SO I CAN I CAN GET IT RESOLVED.

OKAY. SO NOW I DO HAVE A SITUATION WHERE I DO HAVE SOME STUFF ON A TRAILER THAT BELONGED TO WHAT'S PART OF A CHURCH YARD SALE? AND THESE ARE SOME ITEMS THAT DIDN'T SELL, AND I'VE HAD THEM THERE ON MY TRAILER FOR A WHILE.

AT THIS POINT I PROBABLY NEED TO JUST DISCARD THEM BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE COVERED.

I THINK THAT'S, IT'S IT'S JUST A WASTE OF ME TRYING TO PROTECT ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE JUST DISCARDED.

RIGHT. SO I HAVE THAT.

I'M STAYING ON TOP OF THE GRASS.

AND THEN I DID SOME CLEANUP AROUND THE HOUSE.

OKAY, SO THE SO THE GRASS HAS BEEN MOWED.

IS THAT. YEAH. THE GRASS WAS MOWED A WEEK AGO.

I WAS OVER YESTERDAY CUTTING DOWN IN THE CUTTING WHERE THE EASEMENT IS AND WHERE THE TRENCHES ARE, BECAUSE IT WAS DRY.

I WAS OVER THERE YESTERDAY CUTTING THAT AREA, BUT THE GRASS IS DOWN.

THE GRASS HAS BEEN CUT.

OKAY. AND SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WHATEVER I NEED TO GET DONE TO GET THIS BEHIND ME BECAUSE THERE AGAIN, I HAVE TO SPEND 99.9 TENTHS OF MY TIME WITH THE SINGER.

SHE'S TOTALLY, TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON ME FOR HER MEALS, FOR HER MEDICATIONS, FOR HER DOCTOR VISITS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

AND I ONLY CAN GET AWAY JUST TO, YOU KNOW, GO AND CHECK MY MAIL OR TO CUT MY GRASS.

AND THEN I'VE GOT TO GO BACK AND ATTEND TO HER.

I HAD TO LEAVE TODAY.

WELL, I GOT HERE LATE BECAUSE SHE HAS SOMEONE TO COME IN TO ASSIST WITH BATHING AND PERSONAL THINGS THREE TIMES A WEEK.

AND SO THOSE ARE DAYS THAT I HAVE TO KIND OF BE THERE TO MAKE SURE, YOU KNOW, THE PERSON CAN GET IN AND HAVE ACCESS TO HER.

OKAY. SO THIS IS THE PICTURE THAT I HAVE IN THE FILE.

IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

I'M ASSUMING THIS IS THE TRASH AND DEBRIS THAT HAS BEEN CITED FOR.

IS THAT CORRECT? THAT'S BEEN CLEANED UP.

THIS STUFF THAT'S IN THE BACK HERE.

I HAVE A TRAILER WITH STUFF THAT BELONGS TO THE CHURCH THAT AT THIS POINT PROBABLY IS RUINED.

YOU'LL NEED TO SAY THAT IN THE MIC.

THANK YOU. YEAH.

THE ITEMS THAT ARE PROBABLY ON THE TRAILER AT THIS POINT ARE NOT GOING TO BE SALVAGEABLE FOR FOR SALE.

OKAY. SO.

SO WHAT I'M WHAT I'M HEARING FROM YOU IS THAT YOU'VE MOWED THE GRASS AND SOME OF THIS GARBAGE, RIGHT? SOME OF THIS STUFF RIGHT IS GONE.

WELL ALL OF IT COULD HAVE BEEN GONE, BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE PICKUP ON MONDAY.

WE DIDN'T HAVE GROUND PICKUP.

OKAY. SO I FELT IT WOULD BE MORE OF AN EYESORE SITTING ON THE ROAD UNTIL THE NEXT ROUND.

PICK UP A WEEK.

SO I JUST REFUSED TO JUST PUT IT OUT THERE AND JUST LET IT, YOU KNOW, JUST LET IT BE OUT THERE ON THE ROAD.

OKAY. SO. SO YOU CAN GET RID OF EVERYTHING.

A WEEK IS ALL YOU NEED TO GET RID OF EVERYTHING.

GIVE ME TWO WEEKS WITH THE WEATHER GETTING WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW, I'D JUST LIKE TO HAVE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A CUSHION, JUST IN CASE WE GET RAIN.

AND I CAN'T GET OVER THERE.

AND THEN I HAVE TO TIME IT WHERE I'VE GOT SOMEBODY WITH GRANNY SO I CAN BREAK AWAY TO GO OVER AND DO IT.

I CAN PROBABLY I CAN TRY TO GET IT DONE IN A WEEK.

IT'S NOT A WHOLE LOT TO DO.

IT'S BASICALLY TAKING THE STUFF DOWN TO THE ROAD.

BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO TO GET IT DONE AND GET THIS BEHIND ME.

OKAY. IT LOOKS LIKE YOU WERE FOUND IN

[01:45:02]

VIOLATION BACK IN AUGUST.

I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH MISS SNEED.

IT JUST SEEMS LIKE FOR WHATEVER REASON, LIKE I SAID, WHATEVER I WAS DOING WAS NOT ENOUGH OR WAS NOT UP TO WHAT SHE EXPECTED.

AND THERE WOULD BE A BREAK BECAUSE I WOULDN'T HEAR ANYTHING FROM THE CITY.

AND THEN THE NEXT THING I WOULD KNOW, THERE WAS ANOTHER LETTER.

AND WE EVEN GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I HAD A NOTICE BECAUSE THE MAIL CARRIER HAD PUT IT ON THE DOOR INSTEAD OF IN THE MAILBOX.

AND HAD I NEVER GONE TO CUT THE GRASS IN THE TWO WEEK PERIOD, I WOULDN'T HAVE SAW.

I WOULDN'T HAVE SEEN IT BECAUSE I NEVER REALLY GO IN THE HOUSE.

I JUST GO OVER, CUT GRASS, PICK UP MAIL, AND THEN I'M BACK.

I'M BACK OVER ACROSS TOWN.

OKAY, SO, SABRINA, YOU HAVE ANY ANYTHING TO ADD? NO. I JUST WANT TO ADD THAT I'VE DEALT WITH HIM ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FOR PROBABLY 20 YEARS PLUS.

HE CAN'T JUST PUT THIS EVERYTHING OUT TO THE CURB FOR THE DAY.

IT'LL BE INSPECTED AND THEN BRING IT BACK.

SO THERE'S HE HE WILL NEED A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO DO THIS, BUT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING SITUATION FOR MANY, MANY YEARS.

YEAH. YEAH.

THAT'S MY MY CONCERN WAS JUST PUTTING IT OUT ON THE CURB IS NOT IS THAT GOING TO THAT IS NOT GOING TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE.

WELL WE CAN DISCUSS THAT LATER.

BUT I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT FORWARD.

OKAY. HAVE YOU, SIR, HAVE YOU LOOKED INTO GETTING, LIKE, A COMPANY TO HAUL IT UP, HAUL EVERYTHING AWAY? ACTUALLY, I COULD PROBABLY DO THAT WITH MY TRAILER IF I IF IF PUSH CAME TO SHOVE, BUT I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO SET SOME OF IT OUT SINCE I'M PAYING FOR A SERVICE. AND BY THE TIME I SET OUT WHAT'S THERE PUT IN THE CAN AND WHAT'S ON THE GROUND THAT THAT'LL PROBABLY TAKE CARE OF IT.

OKAY. IT JUST LOOKS LIKE IT'S A LOT MORE THAN, THAN IT'S ACTUALLY THERE.

A LOT OF WHAT YOU SEE ON THAT PICTURE IS ALREADY GONE.

OKAY. YEAH. WHETHER IT WAS OLD APPLIANCES OR SCRAP METAL OR WHATEVER, THAT STUFF HAS BEEN HAULED OFF.

THAT STUFF IS GONE.

SO IT'S JUST BASICALLY WHAT'S UNDER THE TARP.

KIND OF IN THE CENTER OF THE YARD.

IT'S WHAT'S THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.

THAT'S WHAT'S LEFT THERE.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

WELL, SINCE YOU'VE BEEN, YOU'VE BEEN MAKING SOME PROGRESS TOWARDS IT.

I'LL GIVE YOU THE TWO WEEKS THAT YOU ASKED FOR.

OKAY, SO THAT'S ALL I NEED.

IF I GET IT DONE SOONER, THEN I JUST RATHER HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF CUSHION.

I KNOW WE'VE GOT ANOTHER SYSTEM COMING THROUGH, AND IT'S POSSIBLY GOING TO YOU KNOW, BRING SOME RAIN WITH IT.

AND I JUST DON'T WANT TO GET LOCKED IN AND DON'T GET A CHANCE.

AND THEN THERE AGAIN, LIKE I SAID MONDAYS, WEDNESDAYS AND FRIDAYS, I HAVE TO BE IN POCKET WITH GRANNY PRETTY MUCH THE WHOLE DAY BECAUSE OF HER PERSONAL NEEDS THAT HAVE TO BE ATTENDED TO.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT, SO WE'LL SET THE, THE THE DATE OF COMPLIANCE TO BE NOVEMBER 28TH, 2024.

OKAY. AND THEN IT'S $50 A DAY FOR EVERY DAY THAT THE PROPERTY IS STILL IN VIOLATION.

AFTER THAT, WE'LL GET IT TAKEN CARE OF.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE? THAT'S IT.

OKAY. AND OUR LAST CASE TODAY IS CB 503124 AT 940 HAMSHIRE AVENUE SOUTHWEST. THE CODE OFFICER IS SABRINA NICHOLSON.

THANK YOU. SABRINA.

NICHOLSON, CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY.

SHE IS HERE TO ASK FOR A TWO WEEK EXTENSION.

I THINK THIS ONE WAS FIXING TO COME FOR FINES TODAY.

BUT SHE'S GOING TO GET WITH THE TENANTS TO GET THE UTILITIES SET UP.

OKAY. IT'S SO COLD IN HERE.

YEAH. I CAN'T FEEL MY FINGERS.

YEAH. SO IT'S THE RESIDENT THAT I JUST HAVE TO GET.

I'VE TALKED TO HIM THE LAST TIME.

IT LOOKS LIKE WE WERE HERE IN JUNE TO GET IT IN THEIR NAME.

AND I WENT TO THE UTILITY DEPARTMENT TO SEE HOW WE CAN KIND OF CIRCUMVENT THE SITUATION.

TO WHERE? I'M ONLY LOOKING AT YOU FOR GRASS, RIGHT? OR TRASH. AND THEY DON'T REALLY HAVE A SYSTEM.

I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY RESIDENTS ARE ALLOWED TO LEAVE THEIR OFFICE AFTER ESTABLISHING WATER SERVICE SERVICE IF THIS IS A REQUIREMENT.

SO I WENT OVER THERE, AND I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THIS EVERY TIME BECAUSE THE RESIDENTS AREN'T GOING TO REALLY KNOW, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? SO I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING. SO THIS IS A REQUIREMENT WHY IT'S LIKE AN A LA CARTE.

AND THEN WE'RE HERE.

SO OKAY.

SO DOES THAT MAKE SENSE.

YEAH I MEAN I THINK YOU'RE PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO JUST ADD SOMETHING TO YOUR RESIDENT ONBOARDING PROCESS TELLING THEM, HEY, YOU GOT TO GET SEWER.

[01:50:07]

THEY CALL SEWER AND TRASH SO THEY KNOW WHAT TO DO.

WATER AND POWER.

BECAUSE WE DON'T PAY FOR OCCUPIED UTILITIES.

SO THEY KNOW THAT PART.

SO THEY THINK THAT THEY'RE ESTABLISHING WATER WITH ALL SERVICES REQUIRED WHEN THEY CONTACT THE OFFICE.

INITIALLY, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO KNOW THAT THIS IS ALSO A REQUIREMENT.

SO THEN YOU AND I MEET, I CALL THEM, YOU KNOW, SO I JUST TRIED TO KIND OF SAY, HEY, IF THIS IS REQUIRED PER ADDRESS, DON'T LET THEM LEAVE YOUR OFFICE WITHOUT IT RIGHT THERE. I'M THINKING AND I'M NOT PAID TO THINK SO? SO YOU ASKED FOR TWO WEEKS? YEAH, I TALKED TO THEM IN JUNE.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY DIDN'T COME UP HERE.

AND SOMETIMES THEY WIND UP PAYING HERE.

PAYING PRETTY QUICKLY BECAUSE MOST OF OUR RESIDENTS ARE PRETTY COMPLIANT.

SO IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN GET IT DONE IN ONE WEEK OR.

I MEAN, WHY IS WHY TWO WEEKS? I THINK IT WAS WRITTEN ON THE FILE.

ONE WEEK IS FINE. I'M GOING TO CONTACT THE RESIDENT ON THE WAY OUT OF HERE.

OKAY. WELL, AFTER LUNCH.

THAT IS. SO DO YOU HAVE A PLAN IF THE RESIDENT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING? THIS RESIDENT. YEAH.

IF YOU GUYS IMPOSE FUNDING, GOES TO THE LEDGER.

SO I CAN ONLY LET THEM KNOW BECAUSE WE WON'T PAY FOR ANYTHING.

SO I'M JUST HOPING.

I DON'T WANT TO SAY THE THREAT.

THAT'S NOT A NICE WORD, BUT, YOU KNOW, I JUST HOPE THE AWARENESS OF A POSSIBLE FINE ON TOP OF THERE, BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY IT.

YOU KNOW, WE DON'T PAY THOSE THINGS.

SO I'M HOPING THAT THEY'LL THEY GET EVICTED IF THEY DON'T KNOW.

YOU CAN ONLY EVICT BY DEFAULT OR RENT.

SO IT'S NOT NECESSARILY UTILITIES.

SO IT DOESN'T UNFORTUNATELY IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY OKAY.

YEAH. THAT'S WHY I WAS HOPING THE WATER DEPARTMENT COULD KIND OF WORK TO WHERE WE DON'T HAVE THE SITUATION, BUT YET, UNLESS IT'S A DEFAULT OF RENT PAYMENT, I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF EVER IT COULD BE A LEASE VIOLATION.

WE'RE KIND OF GROWING DOWN AND GOING DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE WITH THAT.

BUT YEAH, OKAY.

THEY PAY THEIR RENT. IS THERE I MEAN, IS THIS LIKE ARE THERE SPECIAL LIKE RESTRICTIONS ON THESE PROPERTIES THAT DON'T ALLOW YOU TO MAKE THAT A LEASE VIOLATION OR ANYTHING? NO, NOT REALLY.

BECAUSE WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS IF THEY DON'T PAY WATER AND IT DEFAULTS IN OUR NAME, THEN WE PAY IT, BUT THEN WE GO BACK ON THE LEDGER.

SO IT'S NOT REALLY PART OF THE LEASE.

OKAY. AND THEN DEPENDING UPON THE WAY YOUR LEASE IS WRITTEN IS WHETHER OR NOT RENT OR ANYTHING ELSE IS CONSIDERED RENT.

SO IT'S KIND OF ON A LEASE BY LEASE BASIS.

OKAY. ANY OBJECTION TO THE REQUESTED EXTENSION? THANK YOU. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. SO WE'LL SET THE DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR NOVEMBER 28TH, 2024.

THANK YOU. AND THEN THIS ONE IS A SET.

FINE. CORRECT. YEAH.

SO THE FINE WILL BE SET AS LISTED THERE.

THANKS. WHY DON'T WE.

OKAY. ONE MORE TIME FOR CORRECTION OF THE AUTHORIZATION TO IMPOSE FINES.
