Feb 11, 2026 Code Enforcement Special Magistrate

[00:00:02]

ALL RIGHT. WE'LL CALL THE FEBRUARY 11TH, 2026 CODE ENFORCEMENT SPECIAL MAGISTRATE MEETING TO ORDER.

[CALL TO ORDER]

[SWEARING IN]

MAY BE SEATED. AND NEXT IS THE ADOPTION OF THE MINUTES, WHICH HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND SIGNED SO WE CAN MOVE ON TO BUILDING CODE COMPLIANCE

[ADOPTION OF MINUTES]

[BUILDING CODE COMPLIANCE HEARINGS]

AND THIS IS AT 2509 PALISADES DRIVE SOUTHEAST.

GOOD AFTERNOON. JOHN PEARSON, CHIEF BUILDING OFFICIAL. THIS CASE IS FOR A STRUCTURE THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED ON THE PROPERTY.

A PERMIT WAS ORIGINALLY APPLIED FOR. IT. NEVER MADE IT TO THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.

ZONING DENIED IT BECAUSE A VACATE OF EASEMENT IS REQUIRED, AND THE PERMIT WAS EVENTUALLY WITHDRAWN BECAUSE THE TIME LIMIT JUST EXPIRED.

OKAY. THANK YOU. AND ONE OTHER ITEM THE HOMEOWNER IS HERE TO ADDRESS.

YES, SIR. MA'AM, IF YOU PLEASE COME UP.

IF YOU WOULD, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON. GOOD AFTERNOON, YOUR HONOR. WE'RE HERE TODAY BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN TRYING, LIKE, TO BUILD A SHED IN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE.

THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO. TO NOW. AND THEN ALL THE PAPERS THEY'VE BEEN ASKING, I PROVIDE, I PROVIDE THEM ALL.

BUT WE GOT THE LAST LETTER WAS SUPPOSED TO GET FROM MR. DAVE SMALL FROM FPL. AND THEN I'VE BEEN CHANGING EMAIL TO HIM.

HE NEVER RESPONDED BACK TO ME. ONE TIME THAT I CALLED, I TALKED TO HIM AND HE TOLD ME ONCE I PROVIDE THE THE LEGAL DOCUMENTS FROM SMITH SURVEY AND THEN HE WOULD PROVIDE ME THE LETTER.

AS SOON AS I GET THE DOCUMENTS, I SUBMIT IT TO HIM.

HE NEVER RESPONDED BACK TO ME. IN SEVERAL OCCASIONS I'VE BEEN SENDING EMAILS, SENDING EMAILS, TEXTING HIM, CALLING HIM. HE NEVER RESPONDED.

I HAD MY SISTER SEND HIM AN EMAIL. FINALLY, FINALLY HE RESPONDED.

HE SAID HE WAS NOT GOING TO GIVE ME ANY LETTER. I GO BACK TO SMITH SURVEY OFFICE.

I ASKED HIM, PLEASE DO THAT FOR ME. AS A FAVOR.

COULD YOU PLEASE SUBMIT IT THAT THE DOCUMENT THAT THEY'VE BEEN ASKING FOR TO MR. SPRAWLDEF FOR ME? YES HE DID. AND THEN HE SUBMITTED TO HIM.

HE NEVER RESPONDED BACK UNTIL NOW. OKAY. SO WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU HAD CONTACT WITH FPL? THAT WAS OCTOBER. OCTOBER OF THIS OF 2025. 25.

OKAY. AND THE BUILDING? THE SHEDS ALREADY BEEN PARTIALLY CONSTRUCTED.

IS THAT CORRECT? YES, SIR. OKAY. YEAH. WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT THE PACKET, I WAS WONDERING HOW LONG THIS HAD BEEN THAT IF IT WAS ACTUALLY MADE IT TO SATELLITE IMAGERY ALREADY. SO HOW FAR ALONG IN CONSTRUCTION IS IT TO THE LEFT AND THE ELECTRICAL POLES IS 20FT AWAY FROM. AND THEN THE VEHICLE IS THEY ASKED ME NINE, BUT I, THEY ASKED ME FOR EIGHT FEET.

I GOT ALMOST 20FT AWAY. SO I THINK SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO.

OKAY. SO IS IT IN THE EASEMENT AT ALL? NO, NOT AT ALL.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO AS I UNDERSTAND IT, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU APPLIED FOR THE PERMIT.

BUT YOU COULDN'T GET THE ZONING PART OF THE PERMIT BECAUSE IT REQUIRED AN EASEMENT.

VACATING THE EASEMENT TO BE ABLE TO GET THE RIGHT PASS THROUGH ZONING.

BUT NOW THE. BUT YOU'RE SAYING THE SHED IS NOT IN THE EASEMENT, IS THAT CORRECT? IT'S NOT IN THE EASEMENT. OKAY. BECAUSE I GOT THE EASEMENTS FARTHER AWAY FROM FROM THE SHED.

OKAY. YEAH. IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND, I'VE GOT I'VE GOT A COUPLE QUESTIONS.

OKAY. SO ASSUMING WHAT I JUST SAID WAS ALL TRUE, IS THERE IS THERE ANY REASON WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THIS EASEMENT ANYMORE? AND ZONING? CAN IT GO BACK TO THE PERMIT IF IT, IN FACT, IS NOT IN THE EASEMENT BASED ON WHAT THEY SAW? IT WAS AN FPL IS DIFFERENT FROM CITY EASEMENTS, OBVIOUSLY.

SO THEY'RE THEY'RE STATING THAT IT STILL IS AN ISSUE.

OKAY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THE HOMEOWNER REACH OUT TO THE GROWTH MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT AND ZONING IN PARTICULAR, TO ASK THAT QUESTION TO SEE IF IF IT IS IN FACT AN ISSUE OR NOT.

IF IT'S NOT, THEN IT COULD BE AS SIMPLE PERMIT APPLICATION.

THEY WOULD HAVE TO REAPPLY. AND OUR PROCESS TYPICALLY FOR TURNAROUND IS 14 DAYS ON THAT.

OKAY. SO IS THERE MORE THAN ONE EASEMENT. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AN EASEMENT AND A EASEMENT.

[00:05:06]

MAYBE FPL IS NOT BEING RESPONSIVE BECAUSE THEY DON'T YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T CARE.

AND IT'S BUT HE'S GOT A DIFFERENT EASEMENT HE NEEDS TO WORRY ABOUT.

YES, SIR. OKAY. WOULD ONE MONTH BE ENOUGH TIME TO WORK ALL THIS OUT? PROBABLY NOT. HONESTLY I WOULD RECOMMEND GIVING THEM A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THAT, BUT BECAUSE IT COULD BE UTILITIES AND IT COULD BE PUBLIC WORKS, AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHO HAS ACTUALLY INVOLVED WITH THIS PROCESS.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO WITH 60 DAYS THEN. DOES THAT SOUND? THAT'S FINE WITH ME. OKAY. YES, SIR. THANKS. YEP.

ALL RIGHT. SIR. IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU MIGHT HAVE ANOTHER EASEMENT YOU GOT TO WORRY ABOUT.

SO YOU'LL NEED TO. YOU'LL NEED TO TALK WITH THE CITY.

CITY ABOUT THAT. SO WHAT I'M GOING TO DO IS I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A 60 DAY EXTENSION.

THIS WAY, YOU KNOW, THAT GIVES YOU SOME TIME TO TO WORK ALL THAT OUT AND YOU KNOW, HOPEFULLY, LIKE SMALL DAVE SMALL WON'T GIVE ME THE, THE LETTER.

SO IS THERE ANY WAY THAT I COULD GO, LIKE, TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT IT AND THEN TO FIGURE IT OUT? WELL, I THINK IF YOU I THINK WE'RE GOING TO GET AN ANSWER HERE.

YEAH. SO I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THEY GO UPSTAIRS RIGHT NOW TO THE SECOND FLOOR AND, AND SPEAK TO SOMEONE IN LAND DEVELOPMENT AND THE ZONING DEPARTMENT.

AND THEY CAN GET THAT QUESTION ANSWERED. OKAY.

YEAH. THANKS. YEAH. IF YOU GO TO GO TO LAND DEVELOPMENT, AND I'M ASSUMING THAT IF YOUR SHED IS NOT IN THE FPL EASEMENT, THEN THEY'RE NOT REALLY A PLAYER AND IT DOESN'T MATTER. SO WHEN I TALK TO ONE OF THEM, THEY SAID THEY HAVE NOTHING BACK THERE BUT THE ELECTRICAL POLES.

THAT'S WHAT THEY GOT BACK THERE 20FT AWAY. YEAH.

THEN THAT, THEN THE THE FACT THAT FPL HASN'T BEEN RESPONSIVE SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM.

IT WILL WORK. YOU KNOW, WORKING OUT WHATEVER THE OTHER EASEMENT IS THAT YOU NEED.

AND LAND DEVELOPMENT CAN HELP YOU WITH THAT. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH. YEAH. NO PROBLEM. DO I NEED AN ORDER FROM YOU? YOU'LL YOU'LL BE YOU'LL BE GETTING AN ORDER LATER.

SO BUT WE'LL SET THE DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR APRIL 12TH, 2026, AND THEN IT'LL BE $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT, THAT THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. THAT'S FINE. AND TO GET INTO COMPLIANCE, YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE BE APPLYING FOR THE PERMIT.

CORRECT. HAVE THE PERMIT APPLIED FOR. YEAH. OKAY.

THANK YOU.

OUR SECOND CASE TO BE HEARD IS CB 2661026. THIS IS AT 287 TRILBY ROAD, SOUTHWEST.

GOOD AFTERNOON AGAIN. JOHN PEARSON, CHIEF BUILDING OFFICIAL. SO THIS WAS FOR A FRONT DOOR INSTALLED WITHOUT A PERMIT.

NO PERMIT APPLICATION HAS BEEN RECEIVED TO DATE.

A PERMIT IS REQUIRED AND THE OWNER IS PRESENT.

OKAY. THANK YOU. IF THE OWNER WOULD LIKE TO PLEASE COME UP.

GOOD AFTERNOON. GOOD AFTERNOON. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON HERE. ROBERT JOHNSON. I HAD A NEW DOOR PUT IN, BUT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION I COULD PULL MY OWN PERMIT.

BUT BECAUSE THE HOUSE IS UNDER A LLC I WAS TOLD I HAD TO GET A GENERAL CONTRACTOR'S LICENSE TO GET THAT DONE.

AND THE DAY I GOT THAT, FROM THE DAY I WAS FOUND OUT I HAD TO GET THE PERMIT, I WENT TO GO LOOK INTO THAT AND EVERYTHING.

I CONTACTED A GENERAL CONTRACTOR RIGHT AWAY. BUT HE KIND OF WAS RUNNING INTO SOME KIND OF PROBLEMS. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS. JUST BEING STRUNG ALONG.

STRUNG ALONG, STRUNG ALONG. SO AS OF YESTERDAY, I GOT SOMEONE ELSE LOCAL TO COME BY AND CHECK IT OUT.

A NEW GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO LOOK AT IT. SO IT SHOULD BE DONE SOON.

IS ALL THE WORK COMPLETE? YEAH, IT WAS ALL COMPLETED TO CODE AND EVERYTHING LIKE THAT, BUT I JUST NEEDED A GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO ACTUALLY PULL THE PERMIT.

OKAY, SO WHEN YOU PUT IN THE DOOR, WAS IT WAS IT JUST A DECORATIVE CHANGE OR WAS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE PREVIOUS DOOR? THE LAST ONE WAS ROTTED, SO IT WAS AN OLDER HOUSE, SO I WANTED TO GET A NEW ONE IN RIGHT AWAY.

BUT WE. YEAH, I THOUGHT I'D BE ABLE TO PULL THE PERMIT MYSELF, AND IT WAS JUST A LITTLE CONFUSION.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO. IT SOUNDS LIKE

[00:10:08]

I'M NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED THERE, BUT I JUST TOLD HIM I HAD TO MOVE ON TO SOMEBODY ELSE. OKAY. TO FOR THIS, FOR THIS PARTICULAR ONE. SINCE THE DOOR IS ALREADY INSTALLED, DOES THE PERMIT HAVE TO BE ACTUALLY, LIKE LIKE THE FINAL INSPECTION AND EVERYTHING CLOSED OUT FOR FOR THE VIOLATION TO GO AWAY? THAT IS CORRECT. SO ONCE PERMITS ISSUED, WE'LL WE'LL HAVE A FINAL INSPECTION AND PENDING APPROVAL.

THEN THE CASE WOULD BE DISMISSED. OKAY. YEAH.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO WITH 15 DAYS, THEN. OKAY.

THIS WAY. THIS WILL GIVE YOU YOUR GUYS SOME TIME TO APPLY FOR THE PERMIT.

AND WE'LL GIVE THE CITY A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO TO GO OVER THERE AND DO THE INSPECTION.

SO THE THE NEW DATE OF COMPLIANCE WILL BE FEBRUARY 26TH, 2026, AND THEN IT'LL BE A $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT.

THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOU'RE WELCOME. THANK YOU. OUR NEXT ONE IS CB 2661126. AND THIS IS AT 1271 MEDINA AVENUE NORTHWEST.

AND THE OWNER IS PRESENT. OKAY. THANK YOU. THE OWNER.

PLEASE COME UP. DEBRA.

HI. HI. I'M SORRY. I'M HARD OF HEARING. OH, OKAY.

MY NAME IS DEBORAH QUINTERO. OKAY. AND I'M PATRICIO QUINTERO.

OKAY. AND YOU'RE THE OWNERS. YOU'RE THE OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY.

YES I AM. OKAY. OKAY. SO YOU HAD SOME WINDOWS INSTALLED? YES. WITHOUT A PERMIT? YES. HAVE YOU STARTED THE PROCESS OF GETTING A PERMIT? YES. OKAY, GOOD. WHERE ARE YOU ALONG IN THAT PROCESS? ACTUALLY, THE BUILDINGS PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HELPING ME, AND THEY'VE BEEN AWESOME. WE'RE WAITING FOR ANGELA BULL TO BECAUSE I DID ALL THE ALL THE RUNNING AROUND. WE JUST GOT TO GET THE INFORMATION OF THE WINDOW, WHICH WE DID, BUT SHE'S GOING TO PRINT IT UP FOR ME.

OKAY. AND THEN YOU STILL HAVE TO HAVE THE FINAL INSPECTION AND ANY ANY WORRIES ABOUT THAT? I'M SORRY. WELL, THIS IS A LITTLE MORE FOR US.

VERY COMPLICATED, BECAUSE WE JUST MOVED HERE FROM MASSACHUSETTS.

AND TWO MONTHS RIGHT AFTER THAT, WE DECIDED SHE DECIDED TO CHANGE ALL THE WINDOWS.

AND THIS WE CONTACTED THIS COMPANY OUT OF ORLANDO, AND THEY CAME, AND THEY THEY DID EVERYTHING THAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO. AND THEN THE WINDOWS WERE INSTALLED AND AND SOMETIME IN DECEMBER AND.

YEAH. WELL, YEAH, THE CONTRACT WAS IN SEPTEMBER.

WE BOUGHT THE WINDOWS. YEAH. AND THEY TOLD US THAT DON'T WORRY, WE'RE GOING TO DO EVERYTHING AND WE'LL, WE'LL DO ALL THE PROCESS. SO IN DECEMBER THEY, THEY HAD A CONTRACT TO COME TO THE HOUSE WITHOUT EVEN CALLING US AND TO INSTALL THE WINDOWS. SO OF COURSE I LET THEM IN TO DO IT.

AND SO THEN THE CONTRACTOR TOLD ME THAT BUILDING INSPECTOR WILL COME, AND SO DON'T TAKE THE STICKERS OFF THE WINDOWS.

LEAVE THEM ON. BUILD INSPECTOR WILL COME. AND THEN HE WILL INSPECT THE INSPECTION, THE INSPECTION OF THE WINDOWS.

SO ON IN JANUARY, NOBODY CALLED FOR THE INSPECTION.

AND SO I CALLED CITY HALL AND I ASKED THEM, WHEN IS THE INSPECTOR GOING TO COME? THAT'S WHEN I FOUND OUT THERE WAS NO PERMIT. SO THEN I CALLED THE LADY.

WELL, HE DID, AND SHE WAS SCREAMING AT US. WHY, WE CALLED THE CITY HALL, ALL.

WHY WE DID THAT. AND, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE JUST CAUSED YOURSELF TROUBLE.

AND I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WE DID. I THOUGHT I WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING.

AND SO, ANYWAYS, I CAME DOWN TO THE BUILDING.

BUILDING THIS PLACE. AND I THINK THAT'S KEVIN RIGHT THERE.

IS IT? YEAH. HE'S TRIED TO HELP ME, AND SO THEN I THAT'S ON JANUARY 6TH, 15TH.

I GOT A VIOLATION. JANUARY 16TH IS WHEN I STARTED GETTING THE NOTARY PUBLIC, AND I STARTED DOING ALL THE PAPERWORK,

[00:15:01]

WE NEED THE PAMPHLET ON EACH WINDOW. SO I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.

I'M NOT SAVVY WITH THE COMPUTER. AND SO BUT SO TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, ANGELA HAS BEEN HELPING US NOW.

OKAY. AND SO. SO THIS MORNING WE FINALLY GOT ALL THE STUFF TOGETHER.

SO I DON'T KNOW IF SHE PRINTED IT ALREADY. OKAY, WELL THAT'S FINE.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS SIMILAR SITUATION TO THE LAST ONE, BUT THEY'RE FARTHER ALONG IN THE PROCESS.

IS THAT SO? YOU KNOW, MY THING IS, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE LIKE US TO BE THERE ISN'T SOMEBODY IN THE OFFICE THAT JUST HELPS PEOPLE GET WITH THE PERMITS INSTEAD OF US RUNNING AROUND BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING. WE HAD TO GO BUILDING TO BUILDING TO BUILDING. I HAD JUST A LOT OF DIFFERENT PLACES, AND WE'RE NOT USED TO THAT. EXACTLY. WELL I, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU GUYS A A 15 DAY EXTENSION.

SO THERE WAS THE SAME EXTENSION THAT I GAVE THE LAST APPLICANT.

HE HAD KIND OF A SIMILAR ISSUE, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE ACTUALLY FARTHER ALONG, SO IT SHOULD BE A LITTLE EASIER FOR YOU. SO WE'LL SET THE NEW DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR FEBRUARY 26TH. AND THEN IT'LL BE A $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT THAT THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE.

SO WE JUST GOT TO GO BACK TO THE BUILDING, INSPECTOR. I THINK SO, YEAH.

OKAY. YEAH. NOW, ONE THING THAT I'D LIKE TO ALSO GET TO KNOW IS THAT WE GIVE THESE PEOPLE THE DOWN PAYMENT OF SOMETHING I GOT 5 OR $6000. AND THEN THE REST OF THE MONEY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PAID AFTER THE PROJECT IS COMPLETED.

SO FINALLY THE JOB GOT COMPLETED, AND THEY KEEP CALLING US TO PAY THEM.

BUT THEN WHAT THEY TOLD US IS THAT ALL THE STICKERS IN THE HOUSE ARE STILL THERE.

YOU KNOW, THEY TOLD US NOT TO TAKE THEM OUT BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO COME AND DO THE INSPECTION.

I ALSO TALKED TO THE PEOPLE WHO INSTALLED THEM, AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME, YES, PATRICK, DON'T TAKE THEM OUT BECAUSE THE INSPECTOR CAN COME ANY TIME. AND IF IT HAPPENED? WELL, YEAH, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOUR CONTRACTORS REALLY DROPPED THE BALL WITH WITH THE WITH THE PERMITS, BUT THE CITY IS HELPING YOU OUT, SO I THINK YOU'LL BE YOU'LL BE OKAY GOING FORWARD.

IT'S. IT'S JUST MY OFFICE AND ANYONE IS WELCOME TO COME IN.

IS FOR THE RV. IS THE ISSUE THAT IT'S NOT BEHIND A FENCE? THE ISSUE IS IT DOESN'T HAVE A FENCE FULLY ENCOMPASSING THE THE BACKYARD.

OKAY. ARE YOU. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT WAS THE ISSUE.

IF YOU'RE HAVING A RV IN THE BACKYARD, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A FULLY PRIVATE FENCE SURROUNDING THE PROPERTY.

OH, REALLY? I DIDN'T KNOW THAT. YEAH, IT NEEDS TO BE BEHIND.

IT'S A I BELIEVE IT'S A SIX FOOT OPAQUE FENCE.

RIGHT? YES. OH MY GOSH, MORE MONEY. OKAY. I MEAN, CAN YOU GIVE ME, LIKE, A MONTH TO GET THAT DONE? IF YOU CAN GET THAT DONE IN A MONTH.

YEAH, THAT'S I MEAN, THAT'S NOT I HAVE TO DO IT.

PHIL CLINTON AND CO COMPLIANCE OFFICER WITH THE CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE FOLLOWING VIOLATIONS STILL EXIST, WHICH ARE SECTION 176 .0220.

USING THE SWELL TO GAIN ACCESS ONTO THE PROPERTY.

THE RESPONDENT IS HERE AND YOU CAN RESPOND. THANKS.

GOOD AFTERNOON. GOOD AFTERNOON. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

[00:30:02]

WE HAVE A DOUBLE DRIVE GATE. WE WERE USING THAT AREA TO DRIVE OR PARK OUR MY HUSBAND'S TRUCK.

I WASN'T AWARE. WE JUST MOVED FROM MELBOURNE TO PALM BAY.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE COULDN'T DRIVE OVER IT, BUT WHEN WE DID BUY THE HOUSE, IT DIDN'T REALLY HAVE MUCH OF A DITCH.

SO TO THE LEFT OF OUR HOUSE, IF YOU'RE FACING THE HOUSE, THERE IS A, LIKE, A VACANT LOT.

THEY DON'T HAVE MUCH OF A DITCH EITHER. SO WE DID RENT A A THING WITH A SCOOPER.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE CALLED. WE DID FLATTEN IT.

I DID TAKE A PICTURE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS WANTED TO SEE IT. OKAY.

I HAVE ALSO OTHER PICTURES AS WELL, BUT THAT'S ALL I RENTED.

IT STILL HAS TO BE. IT HAS TO PUT BACK. YOU HAVE TO PUT IT BACK INTO ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION.

SO YOU NEED TO PUT SOD IN THERE. SO ALL THIS HAS TO BE SODDED.

IT CAN'T, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S BEEN STILL DRIVEN OVER IT BECAUSE YOU CAN STILL SEE IT'S BEEN DRIPPING OVER.

SO ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE SORTED. OKAY. IT NEEDS TO BE PUT BACK INTO A SPIRITUAL CONDITION.

OKAY. THAT'S FINE. MY MY MAIN QUESTION WAS THE ONLY REASON I TOOK THIS.

DID YOU WANT TO SEE THIS? I DON'T I THINK YOU HAVE PICTURES OF IT.

YEAH, I'VE GOT PICTURES. OKAY. WE JUST RECENTLY DID THIS, SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE PICTURES OF WHAT WE'VE DONE AFTER THE FACT.

OH NO, ACTUALLY I DON'T. THANK YOU. I'M NOT SAYING IT'S COMPLETELY DONE YET. LIKE HE SAID IT HAS TO HAVE SOD. MY MAIN QUESTION WAS IF I HAD TO DIG OUT A DITCH.

IT WOULD KIND OF, LIKE, END ON OUR PROPERTY BECAUSE THE PROPERTY NEXT TO US DOESN'T HAVE A DITCH EITHER.

SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF I HAD TO JUST PUT SOD DOWN BECAUSE OUR DITCH KIND OF IS A DITCH, AND THEN IT SLIGHTLY FLATTENS TO NOTHING WHEN WE GET TO LIKE THE PROPERTY NEXT TO US. SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF I JUST HAD TO PUT SOD DOWN.

WE ARE WANTING TO PUT A DRIVEWAY THERE SO THAT HE CAN PART BECAUSE HIS TRUCK DOESN'T FIT IF MY CAR IS IN THE DRIVEWAY.

SO I THINK AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAT YOU'VE GOT RIGHT NOW, WHICH IS THIS VIOLATION, YOU JUST HAVE TO PUT SOD IN. BUT IF YOU IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE USING THIS AS A DRIVEWAY, THEN YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE PERMITTING PROCESS AND YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS THE SWALE GOES I DON'T I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE WHAT THE CITY WOULD REQUIRE YOU TO DO.

THEY MIGHT, YOU KNOW, YOU MIGHT HAVE TO HIRE AN ENGINEERING FIRM TO COME IN AND PUT IN A PUT IN A PIPE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

WE DID LOOK INTO IT. WE DID GET A QUOTE FROM GREENTHUMB TO PUT A DRIVEWAY THERE.

WE DO HAVE TO GET, LIKE ALL THAT. OH, SORRY. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE DITCH, NOT THE DRIVEWAY.

YEAH, THE DRIVEWAY GOES OVER THE SWALE. YEAH.

SO? SO IF YOU PUT IN THE DRIVEWAY, YOU'LL HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE SWALE.

BUT BUT FOR FOR OUR PURPOSES TODAY, THOUGH, WE JUST WANT TO GET THIS VIOLATION TAKEN CARE OF.

SO, YOU KNOW. SO YOU'RE NOT GETTING FINED. AND IT SOUNDS LIKE ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS JUST PUT IN SOME SOD.

IS THERE ANY WAY THAT I CAN BUY, LIKE, GRASS SEED AND PUT GRASS SEED DOWN AND TRY TO GET IT TO GROW? I HAVE LIKE FIVE KIDS AND ONE ON THE WAY. WE'RE DEAD BROKE.

STEVE'S COMING UP ON PUBLIC WORKS. HE'S STEVE EVANS PUBLIC WORKS ENGINEERING INSPECTOR.

YOU CAN PUT GRASS SEED DOWN. HOWEVER, IT HAS TO BE AT LEAST 70% GERMINATED WITH THE GRASS ACTUALLY SPROUTING UP BEFORE THE CASE CAN BE CLOSED. OKAY. OKAY. SO THAT'LL TAKE MORE TIME.

YEAH. YEAH. OKAY. IS IT CHEAPER? HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR GRASS TO GERMINATE? DEPENDS ON RAIN. IF YOU WATER IT, I'LL WATER IT EVERY DAY.

OKAY. YEAH. OKAY. HOW MUCH ATTENTION YOU GIVE TO IT? HOW MUCH WATER? OKAY. AND THE TYPE OF GRASS SEED THAT YOU PUT DOWN.

AND YOU WILL HAVE TO MATCH WHAT'S EXISTING. SO IF THERE'S SAINT AUGUSTINE DOWN, YOU'D HAVE TO PUT THE SAINT AUGUSTINE GRASS DOWN.

OR MAYBE I CAN ASK HIM. OKAY. OKAY. YEAH, I DON'T I THAT'S TOTALLY FINE.

I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE YOU I KNOW SOD SOD CAN BE PRETTY EXPENSIVE, AND THIS LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD BE THAT LOOKS LIKE IT'D BE AT LEAST A PALLET.

SO YEAH. SO, YEAH, I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM GIVING YOU A LITTLE EXTRA TIME SO YOU CAN DO PUT SEED DOWN.

JUST.

APRIL. 60 DAYS. ALL RIGHT. I MEAN, JUST BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW, JUST BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT GRASS SEED.

YEAH. I SUSPECT NOT. YEAH, I SUSPECT IT'LL GERMINATE MUCH FASTER THAN THAT.

[00:35:04]

I'LL WATER IT, LIKE, FIVE TIMES A DAY. ALL RIGHT.

YEAH. SO WE'LL SET THE NEW DATA COMPLIANCES. APRIL 12TH, 2026.

AND THAT'LL BE A $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT.

THE PROPERTY IS NOT COMPLIANT. DO I GET A PAPER WITH THAT DATE ON IT? YEAH. OKAY. THANK YOU. AND DO YOU WANT THIS PICTURE BACK OR SHOULD WE PUT IT IN THE RECORD? YEAH, I'LL TAKE IT. I'LL GET RID OF IT. THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME. GREAT. OUR NEXT CASE IS CB 2664626.

THIS IS A2235 GASCON ROAD, SOUTHWEST. THE CODE OFFICER IS LETITIA DEAN.

LETITIA DEAN CO. COMPLIANCE. THE VIOLATIONS THAT STILL EXIST ON THE PROPERTY ARE SECTION ONE.

74.002. C NO ACCESSORY BUILDING MAY BE ERECTED UPON THE PROPERTY WITHOUT THE PRESENCE OF A PRINCIPAL BUILDING, AND ANY RESIDENTIAL, ZONING, DISTRICT AND ACCESSORY STRUCTURE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE SIZE OF THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURES LIVING AREA, EXCEPT THAT SHEDS MAY NOT EXCEED 50% OF THE SIZE OF THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURES. LIVING AREA. ACCESSORY BUILDINGS SHALL NOT BE USED UNTIL AFTER THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURE HAS FULLY BEEN CONSTRUCTED, AND THE CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY ISSUED, TO WIT ALUMINUM STRUCTURES AND THEN, PURSUANT TO SECTION 7172 .0232, PURSUANT TO SECTION 105.2 OF THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, STRUCTURES IN THE RESIDENCE ZONE ACCESSORY TO A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE SHALL BE EXEMPT FROM THE REQUIREMENT TO OBTAIN A BUILDING PERMIT PROVIDED THE STRUCTURE COMPLIES WITH THE ZONING CODE.

BASICALLY, THERE'S TWO LARGE THAT ARE CONSTRUCTED ON THE PROPERTY WITHOUT A PERMIT.

THAT'S THE VIOLATIONS THAT STILL EXIST. OKAY.

THANK YOU. THE OWNERS ARE HERE TO SPEAK. ALL RIGHT.

IF YOU WOULD PLEASE COME UP TO THE MIC. YES. I'M JONATHAN ROYCE.

MY WIFE, ALICIA ROY. WE BOUGHT THE HOUSE, AND ONE OF THE SHEDS WAS ALREADY ON THE HOUSE.

AND PER THE PAPER, WHEN WE DID THE FILING. YEAH, I'LL LET YOU TALK.

SO WE BOUGHT THE HOUSE IN 2017. THERE WAS THE LIEN CHECK, AND WE WERE CLEAR OF ALL CODE VIOLATIONS BY THE CITY.

I HAVE THE PAPERWORK FROM THE TITLE COMPANY STATING.

SO THIS ONE SHED THAT SHE'S SPEAKING ABOUT WAS ALREADY ON THIS PROPERTY.

I ALSO HAVE IT ON SURVEYS. SO IT'S BEEN THERE.

NO ONE HAS EVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT THE PERMIT. IT'S YEARS OLD.

I MEAN, WE'RE TALKING 12 YEARS, 12 YEARS OLD.

SO IF WE WERE IN COMPLIANCE BACK WHEN WE BOUGHT THE HOME, WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY THEN.

AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SIX YEARS LATER. SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE.

SO OKAY, SO WHAT ABOUT THIS OTHER. SO THE OTHER METAL STRUCTURE IS A CARPORT.

AND THEN THEY SENT US AN EMAIL SAYING IF IT'S UNDER 50% OF THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE HOUSE, WHICH IT IS. THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT THE SIZE OF THAT.

SO WE'RE UNDER THE 50% SQUARE FOOTAGE THEY PUT DIRECTLY IN THE EMAIL AND I REPLY BACK, IT IS.

AND THEN THEY SAID, OH NO, NOW YOU'RE NOT. THAT'S NOT FOR YOUR AREA.

I'M LIKE, THAT'S WHAT YOU TOLD ME. IT WAS SO.

AND I JUST FEEL LIKE WE'RE GETTING TARGETED. WE DID THIS TWO YEARS AGO.

THEY WROTE US UP LIKE 19 OR 20 VIOLATIONS. IT ALL GOT THROWN OUT.

YOU COME DOWN OUR STREET IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, EVERY THREE HOUSES HAS GOT A VIOLATION.

BUT SHE STOPS AT OUR HOUSE AND TAKES A PICTURE OF A DUMPSTER THAT'S 200FT OFF THE ROAD.

I WAS GETTING A TIRE MACHINE OUT. I HAVE A BROKEN BACK.

I'VE HAD SEVEN SURGERIES AND SHE STOPS AND LITERALLY LOOKS THROUGH THAT GATE TO TRY TO VIOLATE US.

TRIES TO THE SKID STEER. I'VE HAD TO FIGHT TWO YEARS AGO TO GET IT DROPPED.

I GOT THIS SHIRT IS DROPPED AGAIN. SHE THEY WRITE US UP FOR ALL THESE VIOLATIONS EVERY TWO YEARS.

IT SHE COMES BY AND JUST DOES THIS AND WE READ BY THE CODE OF THE CARPORT.

IT SAID IT SAYS THAT THE CARPORT SHALL NOT PERMISSIBLE FROM FRONT YARD OR REAR, TEN FEET FROM ANY REAR PROPERTY LINE SIDE AND SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN 15FT OR 25FT TALL. AND WE'RE WITHIN ALL THOSE MEASUREMENTS.

IT'S NOT WITHIN ANY EASEMENTS. IT'S BEHIND A PRIVACY FENCE.

THEY MADE US MARRIED A LOT TWO YEARS AGO. WE DID THIS THE THE DRAWINGS AND BROUGHT THEM UP HERE TO PUT THE FENCE ON.

WE SPENT TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS DOING EVERYTHING TO TRY TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

AND THEN ONCE AGAIN, SHE COMES OVER AND. AND NOW SHE DROPS EVERYTHING OUT RIGHT BEFORE WE GET TO COURT ABOUT EVERYTHING.

AND THEN THEY SAID, OH, WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO REVIEW THE SKID STEER LATER. I'M LIKE THE SKID STEER FOR PERSONAL USE.

[00:40:06]

WE ALSO HAVE A PERSON HERE TODAY TO HELP REPRESENT US IN THAT SITUATION THAT HE DID HELP SAVE THE FOUR HOMES OFF OF O'CONNELL AND FREE.

YES, THAT JUST HAPPENED ABOUT A WEEK AGO. THE FIRE MARSHAL SAID IT WASN'T THERE.

THE ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD ON FIRE. SO THIS IS 100% PERSONAL.

IT'S NOT EVEN REGISTERED IN A BUSINESS NAME OR ANYTHING.

WE ALSO HAD HER SAY, WELL, I, IN MY OPINION, BELIEVE IT'S FOR BUSINESS USE.

WELL, THAT'S YOUR OPINION. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT FACTS AND LEGAL.

OKAY. WELL, I DON'T SEE I DON'T SEE A VIOLATION ON HERE FOR THE SKID STEER.

SO SHE DROPPED IT AGAIN RIGHT BEFORE WE COME TO COURT.

IT HAPPENED TWO YEARS AGO. IT GOT DROPPED RIGHT BEFORE TO GO TO COURT, SO I JUST FIGURED IT'D BE GOOD TO BRING IT UP SINCE IT KEEPS BEING BROUGHT UP.

AND THEN BEFORE WE GET TO SEE YOU, THEY DROP IT.

I FEEL LIKE IT'S HARASSMENT. THEY KEEP BRINGING UP THE SAME VIOLATIONS AND DROPPING THEM RIGHT BEFORE WE COME AND SEE YOU.

OKAY, WELL, I CAN ASSURE YOU CODE HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN HARASS YOU.

THAT'S NOT. THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY'RE DOING HERE.

IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, THERE'S OVER 40 HOMES IN VIOLATION.

YOU HAVE TO DRIVE IN TO SEE OUR HOUSE. AND SHE SKIPPED EVERY ONE OF THOSE AND JUST SAID IT'S A ROUTINE CHECK.

YEAH. THE EMAIL I GOT STATED IT WAS ROUTINE CHECKED BY THE CODE OFFICER IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

SO IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEN SHE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN ALL THE OTHER HOMES THAT ARE IN VIOLATION, NOT JUST OUR HOME.

AND WE HAVE ASKED EVERY NEIGHBOR IN THE LAST FOUR STREETS IF THEY GOT A VIOLATION, BECAUSE WE SEE THE THINGS, WE KNOW THE CODES AND THEY'RE LIKE, NO, WE HAVE NOT.

OKAY. HEY, FRANK. YEAH. I WOULD LIKE TO. SORRY.

VALERIE STURGIS, CODE COMPLIANCE DIVISION MANAGER.

I WOULD LIKE TANYA THE CITY DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY, TO CHIME IN ON THIS, BECAUSE THE REASON THAT THE CITY WAS REMOVED WAS AT THE REQUEST OF THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. SO I'LL LET TANYA FILL YOU IN ON THAT, OKAY.

YEAH. SO, SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, I JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR.

AND YOU KNOW THIS, BUT I'M SAYING THIS FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYBODY, THAT THE MAGISTRATE CAN ONLY CONSIDER THE MATTERS THAT ARE STILL LEFT ON THE CASE.

SO ANYTHING THAT WAS DROPPED BEFORE IS NOT BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE TODAY.

AND WE'RE NOT ASKING THE MAGISTRATE TO FINE YOU FOR ANYTHING THAT WAS DROPPED BEFORE.

AS FAR AS THAT, THAT ONE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. I LOOKED AT IT, I LOOKED AT THE CODE, AND I RECOMMENDED THAT WE NOT PROCEED AS FAR AS THAT WAS CONCERNED.

THANK YOU. OKAY. SO IS THAT DONE AND OVER WITH? BECAUSE IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS THAT'S BEEN BROUGHT UP. SO AT THIS POINT, UNLESS THERE'S ANY CHANGES, I DON'T HAVE A CRYSTAL BALL. BUT BASED ON MY RECORD, BASED ON MY READING OF THE CODE AT THIS TIME WE DECIDED NOT TO PROCEED.

ALL RIGHT. OKAY, SO SHALL WE? SO WE'LL JUST WORK ON THE TWO.

SO, WHAT ARE WE? THE SHED WAS THERE WHEN WE PURCHASED THE HOUSE.

AND WE HAVE THAT PAPERWORK HERE SAYING THERE WAS.

IT WAS IN CODE COMPLIANCE THEN. ALL RIGHT. SO WE PAID FOR CLOSING.

I'LL JUST SAY I THINK AS YOU KNOW, AS YOU'VE SEEN, I'M PRETTY LIBERAL WITH THE EXTENSIONS THAT I GRANT AND YOU KNOW, I TRY TO BE I TRY TO BE HELPFUL WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

BUT TWO THINGS I DON'T LIKE TO HEAR WHEN I'M UP HERE ARE THE WHAT ABOUT ISMS WHERE PEOPLE SAY, WELL, WHAT ABOUT MY NEIGHBOR? THEY'RE THEY'RE MY NEIGHBORS IN THIS CONDITION? OR WHAT ABOUT THIS HOUSE DOWN HERE I DON'T LIKE I DON'T LIKE TO HEAR THAT BECAUSE THAT'S NOT IN FRONT OF ME. AND I ALSO DO NOT LIKE TO HEAR PROPERTY OWNERS COMING UP AND ACCUSING CODE ENFORCEMENT AGENTS OF HARASSING THEM OR DOING SOMETHING DOING SOMETHING UNETHICAL.

UNLESS THERE'S SOME, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE SOME REAL EVIDENCE TO DO THAT.

SO I'M JUST TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, I DIDN'T LIKE ALMOST ANYTHING YOU JUST SAID.

OKAY. SO ALL ALL WE'RE FOCUSED ON RIGHT NOW ARE THERE'S TWO VIOLATIONS THAT ARE LEFT ON YOUR PROPERTY.

AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO GET THEM BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE? SO THE SHED SHOULD BE THROWN OUT BECAUSE IT WAS BOUGHT WHEN WE WHEN WE BOUGHT THE HOUSE.

OKAY. JUST JUST BECAUSE JUST BECAUSE THE VIOLATION WASN'T JUST BECAUSE THERE WASN'T A LIEN ON THE PROPERTY FOR THE VIOLATION WHEN YOU BOUGHT THE HOUSE DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU YOU GET A PASS. YOU STILL HAVE TO BRING IN CODE.

IF YOU BUY A HOUSE WITH A CODE PROBLEM, YOU BUY THE CODE PROBLEM.

SO WE'VE STILL GOT TO WE'RE GOING TO WE STILL GOT TO FIX THAT.

SO YOU'RE NOT. THE PAPERWORK SAYS THAT THE HOUSE IS IN CODE COMPLIANCE WHEN WE BOUGHT IT.

NOW YOU'RE SAYING IT WAS NOT IN CODE COMPLIANCE WHEN WE BOUGHT IT.

IF THAT PAPERWORK SAYS THAT THE PROPERTY WAS IN COMPLIANCE, THEN THEN CODE.

WHEN YOU WHEN YOU GO FOR THE PERMITS, THE CODE, THE PERMIT OFFICE WILL BE ABLE TO WORK THAT OUT.

BUT I'M NOT GOING TO I'M NOT GOING TO APPEAR TO SAY THAT THAT SHEDS IN COMPLIANCE HERE BECAUSE I HAVE NO PAPERWORK ON IT WAS FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER.

OKAY. SO WE'VE GOT TWO PERMITS THAT WE NEED TO GET.

[00:45:02]

AND WILL THAT COVER BOTH OF THESE VIOLATIONS? YES. OKAY. ALL RIGHT, SO THE QUESTION IS HOW LONG IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR US TO GET THESE PERMITS? ARE THE BUILDINGS ARE THEY DONE AND CONSTRUCTED? YEAH. THE SHED'S BEEN THERE FOR 12 YEARS. AND THE CARPORT.

YEAH. WE PUT IT TOGETHER BEFORE MY BACK SURGERY TO HAVE COVER FOR THE VEHICLES, YOU KNOW, HAIL AND STUFF LIKE THAT. WE JUST PARK OUR STUFF. OKAY.

SO REALLY, ALL WE NEED IS THE. IS THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT'LL TAKE TO APPLY FOR THE PERMITS AND GET THE FINAL INSPECTIONS AND.

YEAH. AND THE FUNDS BECAUSE I HAVEN'T WORKED IN A YEAR, AND SHE TOOK OFF FOR THE LAST MONTH TO TAKE CARE OF ME.

I WAS IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL FOR 27 DAYS.

OKAY, WELL, THE FUNDS SHOULDN'T BE. HOW HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO GET THESE PERMITS? THAT SHOULDN'T BE TOO BIG OF A DEAL, RIGHT? ARE WE TALKING LIKE.

WELL, I DID LOOK IT UP, AND I'LL BE COMPLETELY HONEST, WE CAN'T AFFORD IT AT THE MOMENT.

HE HAS HAD BACK SURGERY IN DECEMBER. THREE DAYS LATER WE WENT BACK IN.

WE HAD FOUR BACK SURGERIES SINCE DECEMBER 26TH AND I HAVE TOLD VALERIE MULTIPLE TIMES, I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THIS.

I'M TRYING TO WORK ON IT. JONATHAN'S IN THE HOSPITAL.

I'M NOT TRYING TO PULL A PERMIT KNOWING THAT TOMORROW HE COULD GO BACK INTO HOSPITAL AND THEN I'M SCREWED BECAUSE I HAVE A PERMIT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH. SO WE NEED A LOT MORE TIME.

I EVEN HAVE A GOFUNDME GOING FOR OUR FAMILY, CONSIDERING WE CAN'T EVEN PAY OUR BILLS AT THE MOMENT.

SO THE PERMITTING IS AN ISSUE. THE PRICE OF THE PERMITTING IS AN ISSUE.

OKAY SO HOW MUCH WILL IT COST? DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH IT WILL COST TO GET THE PERMIT FOR THE SHED? IT WAS LIKE $250. IF I LOOKED AT THE WRONG ONE, THEN I DID.

BUT THAT'S MY POINT, IS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M LOOKING AT. THE PROBLEM IS, I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO REQUIRE US TO HAVE ENGINEERING BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANY PAPERWORK ON THAT SHED SINCE WE BOUGHT IT WITH THE PROPERTY.

THAT'S WHY WE DID THAT CODE CHECK BEFORE. LIKE, I UNDERSTAND THE CARPORT.

WE NEED TO GET TO FIND A WAY TO DO THE PERMIT FOR IT.

BUT IT'S LIKE THE SHED. IF WE HAD TO GO ENGINEERING AND STUFF.

ENGINEERS $501,000 TO GET THE STUFF SIGNED OFF ON.

OKAY. AND SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, IF I MAY, YOU'VE ALREADY SAID THIS IN SO MANY WORDS, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RECORD IS CRYSTAL CLEAR.

I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY COMMUNICATIONS THAT THAT THE RESPONDENTS HAVE REFERENCED IN TERMS OF THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY AT THE TIME THAT THEY PURCHASED IT.

ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT THE CITY'S GENERAL PRACTICE IS TO DO A LIEN SEARCH, AND THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LIEN SEARCH AND A VERIFICATION THAT THE PROPERTY IS IN COMPLIANCE. THOSE ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. RIGHT.

AND AND THAT'S WHY I'M NOT I'M NOT GOING TO SAY THAT THE SHED IS IN COMPLIANCE HERE, BECAUSE JUST BECAUSE IT SHOWED, JUST BECAUSE THE SEARCH DIDN'T SHOW, IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT'S IN COMPLIANCE.

CAN I JUST WANTED SOME TESTIMONY FROM THE CITY REGARDING COSTS.

JOHN PEARSON, CHIEF BUILDING OFFICIAL. SO OUR PERMIT VALUES FOR SHEDS, LIKE MANY OTHER THINGS, ARE BASED ON VALUATION. IT'S TYPICALLY A PERCENTAGE OF THE VALUATION.

AT THIS POINT, THE SHED WOULDN'T BE WORTH A LOT.

OBVIOUSLY. SO IT SHOULD NOT BE A VERY EXPENSIVE PERMIT.

I WOULD SAY LESS THAN $200. I WOULDN'T NEED, YOU KNOW, THE PARTICULARS OF WHAT THEY APPLY FOR TO BE ABLE TO TELL YOU FOR SURE.

BUT THERE'S THE POSSIBILITY THAT ENGINEERING WOULD BE INVOLVED, BECAUSE IF THE SHED WAS CONSTRUCTED ON SITE, WE WOULD NEED PLANS FOR THAT. AND THAT SOMETIMES IS DONE BY AN ENGINEER, SOMETIMES DONE BY A CONTRACTOR.

IF THE SHED WAS PURCHASED AS A COMPLETE UNIT.

THERE'S OUR FLORIDA PRODUCT APPROVALS FOR SOME SHEDS, AND THEY CAN SIMPLY PROVIDE THAT FOR US.

NOT KNOWING THE DETAILS OF THE SHED, I CAN'T ANSWER THAT QUESTION.

BUT THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS EXISTS THAT AN ENGINEERING PLAN WOULD BE REQUIRED.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANKS. OKAY. THAT DOES APPEAR TO WAS NOT BUILT ON SITE.

IT HAS RUNNERS AND STUFF OR NOT. BUT THERE I DID LOOK TO SEE THERE'S NO TAG INSIDE TO SAY WHO THE SHED WAS BUILT FOR.

OKAY. SHEDS. EXTREMELY OLD. I MEAN, THE ROOF BLEW OFF DURING HURRICANE, YOU KNOW, SO WE HAD TO REATTACH THAT BACK ON THERE.

SO IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S SO. AND I DID MENTION THE SHED IN THE EMAIL ABOUT THE HISTORY OF IT ON ON DECEMBER 19TH, 2025 AT 3:19 P.M.. TO MISS VALERIE, I MENTIONED THE WHOLE ENTIRE HISTORY OF THIS SHED TO HER.

OKAY. WELL, WE'RE WE'RE ON RECORD. WE'RE. YEAH, WE'RE PAST THAT NOW.

WE'RE JUST FIGURING OUT WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO TO BRING THIS BRING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE.

SO IT SOUNDS LIKE RIGHT NOW THE, THE GOING IN ARGUMENT IS THE PERMIT IS GOING TO BE ABOUT $200.

SO ENGINEERING WELL, MAYBE NOT ENGINEERING. SO I'M, I'M WORKING.

I'M, I'M GETTING THERE. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR YOU GUYS TO GET THE $200 TOGETHER FOR THE PERMIT FOR 120 DAYS, 120 DAYS? WE'RE NEGATIVE. WE'RE BORROWING MONEY TO PAY OUR OUR FPL RIGHT NOW.

AND I HAVE A GOFUNDME BECAUSE THE SURGERY WAS NOT.

[00:50:02]

SO IT'S AND SHE TOOK OFF THE ENTIRE MONTH TO TAKE CARE OF ME BECAUSE I WAS IN ICU AND IN AND OUT.

I HAVE INFECTION THAT WENT THROUGH MY SPINE FROM BACK SURGERY, SO I HAVE TO DO THIS AGAIN IN FIVE MONTHS.

I HAVE TO GET ANOTHER SURGERY TO REMOVE THE REST OF THE HARDWARE IN MY SPINE.

OKAY, SO FINANCIALLY, YES, WE'RE IN A VERY BAD SPOT.

WE'VE NEVER BEEN IN THIS SPOT IN OUR LIFE, BUT WE'RE TRYING, BUT WE'RE EXTREMELY BEHIND.

OKAY THE GOFUNDME IS ONLY BROUGHT IN 1500 BUCKS, SO IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO PAY THE MORTGAGE.

ALL RIGHT. IS THE IS THE THE THE STRUCTURES, ARE THEY A HAZARD THAT CAN THAT YOU CAN TELL.

NO. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. WELL IF THERE'S NOT IF THEY'RE NOT A SAFETY HAZARD, DOES THE CITY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WITH A FOUR MONTH EXTENSION.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO WE'LL WE'LL SET THE NEW DATA COMPLIANCE FOR JUNE 11TH, 2026.

AND THAT'LL BE $50 A DAY FINE FOR EVERY DAY AFTER THAT.

THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. AS LONG AS WE BECOME THE HERE WE CAN GET ANOTHER EXTENSION IF NEEDED.

BE AS LONG AS WE COME TO THE HEARING. IF YOU IF YOU COME TO THE HEARING AND YOU'RE AND YOU'RE TAKING STEPS YOU KNOW, TO TO YEAH, WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO TAKE IT.

I JUST DON'T KNOW IF IF IT'LL BE ENOUGH TIME.

WE'RE GOING TO, YOU KNOW, BE DOING STUFF. WE'LL SHOW PROGRESS REGARDLESS. I CAN'T I CAN'T MAKE ANY PROMISES ABOUT WHAT I'LL DO FOUR MONTHS FROM NOW.

BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT MY GENERAL PRACTICE IS THAT IF PEOPLE COME AND THEY'RE MAKING AN HONEST EFFORT TO BRING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE AND THEY'VE DONE THINGS, THEN MY GENERAL PRACTICE IS TO GIVE THEM ADDITIONAL TIME.

IF PEOPLE COME AND THEY JUST IF THEY JUST BLOW IT OFF AND THEY DON'T DO ANYTHING AND THEN SAY THEY WANT MORE TIME THAN I, THAN, I DON'T KNOW, TALK TO THEM NOW TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO REQUIRE TO MOVE FORWARD.

SOUNDS GOOD.

OUR NEXT CASE IS CB TWO SIX TO SORRY 2662126 AT 1723 MISSOURI ROAD NORTHWEST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS ANGELICA SNEED.

ANGELICA, SEED CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CITY OF PALM BAY. VIOLATIONS THAT EXIST ARE STILL THE SAME, WHICH IS SECTION 74.25 F RECREATIONAL VEHICLE PROHIBITED TO PARK OR BE STORED IN FRONT OF A RESIDENCE SECTION 93.03 TALL GRASS AND WEEDS WITH ACCUMULATION OF TRASH AND DEBRIS. IT'S AT 1723 MISSOURI ROAD, NORTHWEST.

THIS PROPERTY WAS POSTED AND IT WAS POSTED JANUARY 6TH, 2026.

AND THE RESPONDENT IS HERE TO ASK FOR TIME. OKAY, MA'AM, CAN I HAVE THE FOLDER, PLEASE? THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. SIR, IF YOU PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON HERE. KYLE HASKELL.

AS IN THE FIRST CODE WITH THE RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, THEY'RE NOT PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE OR ON MY CORNER LOT.

THEY'RE BEHIND MY HOUSE LINE ON THE INSIDE CORNER, WHICH DOESN'T NEED TO HAVE A FENCE.

SO I DON'T. THAT ONE SHOULDN'T BE A PART OF IT.

AS IN THE SECOND ONE, SHE SAID, THE TALL GRASS AND AND AN INSECURE WOOD FRAME.

I HAVE FOUR POSTS IN MY YARD THAT I DON'T KNOW WHY I HAVE TO TAKE THEM OUT.

THEY WERE JUST IT'S JUST THE STRUCTURE WHERE I HAD LIKE A GARDEN WHERE VINES USED TO GROW ON IT, AND IT HAD LIKE JUST A LITTLE OUTSIDE SITTING AREA THAT THE TREE NEXT TO THE OAK TREE THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST FOUR POSTS NOW, BUT IT'S NOT.

IT COULD BE. I DON'T SEE THAT. BUT THAT'S MY TRUCK'S PARKED AS IN THE DAYTIME.

JUST THERE. THAT'S NOT MY RECREATIONAL VEHICLES.

THAT'S JUST A TRAILER THAT'S ATTACHED TO MY TRUCK.

AND OBVIOUSLY I'M OUTSIDE. MY GARAGE IS OPEN, SO IF I PULL UP TO MY HOUSE, I CAN'T PARK THERE FOR AN HOUR WHILE I'M THERE OR.

YOU KNOW, AND OKAY. OTHER THAN THAT, AND THEN THE FOUR POSTS, LIKE, I DON'T AND I JUST I WANT TO BE IN. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANY ISSUES OR ANYTHING, BUT IT'S JUST LIKE SHE HAS THIS.

ME AND MY TRAILER HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR HER THAT I HAVE DAILY ON MY TRUCK.

SO. BUT AS IN MY RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, THEY'RE ALL PARKED ON THE SIDE WHERE THEY SHOULD BE.

OKAY, LIKE ON THE WEEKEND, I PARK MY TRAILER AND IT'S ONLY IF IT'S ATTACHED TO MY TRUCK AND I CAN TELL YOU WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS, THIS ISSUE ABOUT TRAILERS BEFORE IN PREVIOUS PREVIOUS CASES AND THE I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT NOW THAT THE CODE IS WRITTEN BROADLY ENOUGH THAT THAT THAT THIS TRAILER IS CONSIDERED A RECREATIONAL VEHICLE.

OKAY. SO, I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S NOT I KNOW IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU USE FOR FUN, BUT IT'S STILL AS FAR AS THE CODE DEFINES IT,

[00:55:05]

BUT SINCE THEN I HAVEN'T PARKED IT OUT THERE BY ITSELF.

IF IT'S ATTACHED TO MY TRUCK, MY TRUCK IS JUST PARKED THERE AT THE MOMENT, YOU KNOW.

AND LIKE I SAID, IF IT'S NOT ATTACHED TO MY TRUCK, I DO HAVE IT.

I AM PUTTING IT IN THE BACK BESIDE BEHIND MY PROPERTY LINE.

OKAY, SO LIKE IF SHE COMES BY MY HOUSE AND I'M OUTSIDE, IF I COME HOME FOR LUNCH AND MY TRUCK'S PARKED OUTSIDE AND SHE TAKES A PICTURE OF IT, I'M IN CODE VIOLATION THEN. ALL RIGHT. CAN I'VE GOT SOME QUESTIONS.

OKAY, SO THE TRAILER IS THERE ALL THE TIME, BECAUSE EVERY TIME I GO BY THERE, IT'S THERE.

THAT'S NUMBER ONE. NUMBER TWO, THE STRUCTURE, THE POLES THAT YOU TAKE THEM OUT, THE ONES THAT WERE IN THE GROUND.

YEAH. THOSE HAVE TO COME OUT BECAUSE IT'S JUST.

WHY DO I HAVE TO TAKE. IT'S IN DISREPAIR. YOU HAVE FOUR POSTS IN THE GROUND.

THEY'RE JUST IN DISREPAIR. IF I HAD CLOTHESLINE, IF I DROWN MY CLOTHESLINE, IT'S DEBRIS.

MY PROPERTY AND IS NOT OBSTRUCTING ANYTHING. IT WAS A GARDEN LIKE LITTLE.

WHAT IS IT FOR? HAD ESTABLISHED BEFORE, BUT IN THE LAST THREE YEARS.

LIKE IT? JUST WHAT IS IT FOR? LITTLE GARDEN AREA.

I HAD THINGS GROWING UP ON THE SIDE WITH THE WITH THE WOOD THAT I TOOK DOWN.

OKAY. I HAD PLANTS AND VINES, AND I USED TO HAVE THE LIGHTS OUT THERE, AND WE SAT OUT THERE AND IN THE LAST.

I'VE BEEN DIVORCED IN THE LAST THREE YEARS, SO I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WITH IT, BUT IT'S JUST THERE.

WHERE ARE THESE POSTS ON THE I DON'T THINK I HAVE IT, YOU DON'T HAVE PICTURES? OKAY, I HAVE IT IN THE CASE IN MY, MY WHOLE LOT IS JUST MY YOU CAN'T PUT WHAT IF I WANTED A CLOTHESLINE? WHAT IF I PUT THE TWO POSTS UP WITH A CLOTHESLINE TO HANG MY CLOTHES ON TO DRY IN THE SUN? IS THAT NOT. IS THAT AGAINST CODE IF IT'S IN DISREPAIR SO IT'S NOT IN GOOD STRUCTURE, HOW CAN YOU SAY IT'S IN DISREPAIR? OKAY, SO LET'S GO ON TO THE NEXT THING, WHICH IS THE TALL GRASS AND WEEDS, THE WEEDS THAT IS OVERGROWN, THAT JUST THE HOUSE JUST. IT JUST NEEDS TO BE.

WE WHACK LIKE IN THE DITCH AREA AND ALL THAT HAS BEEN THERE THIS WEEK.

I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE SO I COULD CHECK THAT AND WE CAN CLOSE THAT PART OUT. YOU KNOW WHERE MY OAK TREE IS, WHERE THAT IS? I HAD BUSHES GROWING IN THE HEDGE AND ALL THAT, AND OTHER THAN THAT, I HAVE A HALF ACRE THAT IS WELL MAINTAINED MOST OF THE TIME.

YES. THE FEW TIMES IN WHEN IT FIRST STARTED, BACK THEN, AROUND MY DITCH AREA, MY LADY WAS BROKE, IT GOT HIGH. BUT I TOOK CARE OF THAT AND WE CAN CLOSE THAT PART OUT.

THAT'S GOING TO BE FINE IF IT'S CORRECT. OKAY. ALL RIGHT SIR, FOUR POSTS. I'LL GO BY THERE WITH MY SUPERVISOR.

WE'LL GO HE'S MY ACTING SUPERVISOR WE'LL GO BY AND WE'LL ASSESS IT, AND WE'LL DETERMINE IF HE CAN DETERMINE IF IT'S CONSIDERED TRASH AND DEBRIS.

OR YOU COULD JUST HAVE IT THERE, BUT MOST LIKELY YOU'LL NEED A PERMIT FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

YEAH, YEAH. AND IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND, I JUST WANT TO I JUST WANT TO TALK TO. I JUST WANT TO HEAR FROM ANGELICA FOR A SECOND. OKAY.

SO THE THESE IT'S ON A CORNER LOT, SO THESE HAVE TO BE BEHIND A FENCE, CORRECT? CORRECT. ON A CORNER. LOT HAS TO BE BEHIND A FENCE.

YES. AND IT WOULD BE THE SAME FENCE THAT THIS HAS TO BE BEHIND.

CORRECT? YES. OKAY. YES. ALL RIGHT. IT CAN BE PARKED OPPOSITE SIDE ON THE INSIDE.

HOLD ON A SECOND. I'M TALKING TO ANGELICA. OKAY.

IS THERE SOMEWHERE. IS THERE SOMEWHERE ON THE PROPERTY AS IT IS NOW THAT HE COULD PUT THESE THINGS WITHOUT THEM BEING.

WELL, THE WAY THE ORDINANCE READS THAT IF YOU'RE ON A CORNER LOT THAT THE RV OR TRAILER CAN BE BEHIND BEHIND THE PROPERTY LINE, BUT IT HAS TO BE BEHIND THE SIX FOOT FENCE, AND THAT'S ON A CORNER LOT.

OKAY. SO, I MEAN, SO THERE'S NOWHERE ON THE PROPERTY WHERE THESE CAN BE STORED IF THEY'RE NOT THE WAY IT READS THE ORDINANCE AND THE TANYA CAN CLARIFY FOR ME THE WAY IT READS ON HIS CORNER LOT, IF HE'S ON A CORNER LOT, IT SHOULD BE BEHIND A SIX FOOT FENCE.

YEAH. YOU GOT IT. YEAH. HOLD ON. I WANT TO HEAR.

I JUST WANT TO CONFIRM THAT WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY. THAT'S A DOUBLE LOT. MARRIED.

SO IT'S NOT JUST A CORNER LOT TO PUT IN THE EFFECT OF.

IT'S NOT JUST A CORNER LOT. I AM TWO LOTS. MY HOUSE IS MARRIED, SO.

WELL, IF YOU IF YOU MARRY A SIDE LOT TO A CORNER LOT, DOESN'T THAT JUST MAKE ONE BIG CORNER LOT? I. SO, MAGISTRATE, IF I MAY, I THINK WE MAY BE PUTTING THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE HERE.

I THINK THE QUESTION, THE THE FIRST QUESTION IS WHETHER OR NOT THE PROPERTY IS IN COMPLIANCE RIGHT NOW.

AND I THINK IN TERMS OF WHETHER. GO AHEAD. OH, I THINK IT'S PRETTY CLEAR IT'S NOT.

YEAH. IN TERMS OF THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS. I THINK IT WOULD BE I'M HAPPY TO SIT DOWN WITH THE RESPONDENT AND STAFF AND TALK

[01:00:04]

OBVIOUSLY, I CAN'T GIVE LEGAL ADVICE, BUT I CAN.

I CAN TELL HIM FROM THE CITY'S PERSPECTIVE WHAT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE.

OKAY. SO FROM WHAT I SEE, WHAT WE NEED TO DO, WE NEED TO BRING TO BRING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE.

WE EITHER HAVE TO MOVE THESE VEHICLES OFF THE PROPERTY AND GET RID OF THESE THE WOODEN POLES OR POSTS, OR PUT EVERYTHING BEHIND A SIX FOOT FENCE. DOES THAT SOUND RIGHT, ANGELICA? CORRECT. OKAY, SO I HAVE TO PUT FOUR POSTS BEHIND A FENCE POST.

I DON'T I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THAT'S A CODE WHEN THAT COMES IN WITH THIS CODE HERE, HOW THAT APPLIES TO THAT.

AND I'M NOT TRYING YOU KNOW, I'M NOT TRYING TO FIGHT IT. IT'S NOT IT'S IT'S JUST IT HAS IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME WHY THAT IT JUST FOUR POSTS IS AN ISSUE IN MY YARD. AS IN SAYING IT'S OBSTRUCTION OR IT'S HAZARDOUS OR ANYTHING IF I WANT TO PUT LIGHTS ON IT OR IF I WANT WHATEVER, I WANT TO PUT BIRDHOUSES ON TOP OF IT, I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO.

I THINK WE'VE GOT SOME INPUT FROM THE CITY HERE.

YES, IF WE COULD, IF WE COULD SET A DATE FOR COMPLIANCE, I'D BE HAPPY TO GO OUT THERE AND LOOK AT THE PROPERTY, LOOK AT THE SITUATION, SPEAK WITH THE CITY'S ATTORNEY.

MAKE A DETERMINATION AT THAT TIME, BECAUSE WE'RE WE'RE ARGUING OVER DEFINITION OF POST VERSUS DAMAGE.

BUT WE CAN GO OUT THERE AND TAKE A LOOK. THE GOAL HERE IS VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE.

SO WE CAN GO OUT THERE AND TAKE A LOOK. AND THEN WE CAN TALK WITH TANYA AND COME UP WITH A SOLUTION.

AND BUT THAT WAY THIS CASE MOVES FORWARD AND WE HAVE SOME SORT OF PROGRESSION.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THAT'S MY GOAL WITH THAT WAS FOR THE TREES TO GROW.

IF YOU SIR SIR JUST PLEASE JUST TALK TO ME. ALRIGHT.

SO MY MY QUESTION IS HOW LONG, HOW LONG IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR YOU TO RELOCATE THESE VEHICLES? WHAT VEHICLES? I NEEDED THE TRAILER, AND IT LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT A JET SKI AND MAYBE A BOAT BACK HERE.

YEAH, BUT THAT IS ON. IT IS OPPOSITE THE SIDE INTERIOR PROPERTY LINE.

THAT DOESN'T NEED TO BE. I'VE ALREADY EVEN GONE THROUGH THIS WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT 4 OR 5 YEARS AGO.

OKAY, SIR. OKAY. NO. SO THAT DOESN'T SAY THAT, THOUGH.

STOP. STOP TALKING. LET ME LET ME EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT I JUST EXPLAINED TO THE LAST PEOPLE.

IF PROPERTY OWNERS COME HERE AND THEY'RE WILLING TO WORK.

I'M VERY LIBERAL WITH WITH THE WITH THE AMOUNT OF WITH THE AMOUNT OF EXTRA TIME I GIVE.

BUT IF YOU IF YOU'RE GOING TO START, IF YOU'RE IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE QUIBBLING ABOUT THIS, I'M NOT I'M GOING TO BE ARGUING THAT. I'M ASKING THAT I'VE ALREADY DETERMINED IN CODE THAT.

ALRIGHT. OKAY. I'M I'M DETERMINING THAT THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE.

AND NOW WE JUST GOT TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE NEED TO DO AND HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO TAKE TO BRING IT INTO COMPLIANCE.

WELL, I CAN'T AFFORD TO PUT A FENCE UP. AND, SO I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW LONG IT WAS.

I GUESS AT LEAST I NEED ANOTHER 60 DAYS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT I'M GOING TO DO WITH MY RECREATIONAL VEHICLES.

THAT FOR THE LAST 13 YEARS, I THOUGHT, IS ALLOWED TO BE PARKED ON THAT ON MY INTERIOR SIDE OF THE PROPERTY WITHOUT A FENCE.

OKAY. IF I IF I MAY, IF WE COULD GIVE THEM 30 DAYS, THAT WOULD GIVE US ENOUGH TIME TO MEET THEM OUT THERE, DISCUSS, TRY TO SHOW PROGRESS, AND THEN WE CAN COME BACK BEFORE THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE AND DETERMINE WHERE WE'RE GOING.

AND IF WE NEED TO GIVE ANOTHER 30 DAYS, WE CAN DO THAT AT THAT TIME.

OKAY, THAT'S THAT'S FINE. WE CAN DO THAT. WE'LL SET THE NEW DATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR MARCH 30TH, 2026. AND THEN IT'S $50 A DAY FOR EVERY EACH AND EVERY DAY AFTER THAT.

THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. WE'RE.

OKAY. OUR NEXT CASE IS CB 2662926. AND THIS IS AT 6672 BABCOCK STREET SOUTHEAST.

THE CODE OFFICER IS PHILLIP CLENDENIN. ALL RIGHT. PHIL CLENDENIN, CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER WITH CITY OF PALM BAY.

THE FOLLOWING VIOLATIONS STILL EXIST. SECTION 172.004 USE OF STRUCTURE OR LAND WITHOUT THE REQUIRED CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY.

SECTION 74.25, SUBSECTION F WHICH IS RECREATIONAL VEHICLES.

CAMPERS ON THE PROPERTY IN FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE SECTION 74.25, SUBSECTION F CAMPERS BEING LIVED IN ON THE PROPERTY.

SECTION 93.03. TRASH AND DEBRIS. TALL GRASS AND WEEDS.

[01:05:04]

THERE WAS HOMELESS PEOPLE LIVING ON THIS PROPERTY.

THERE'S TWO HOMES ON THIS, ON THIS ACTUAL PROPERTY.

THERE'S TWO HOMES. ONE'S BURNT DOWN YEARS AGO.

I DON'T KNOW WHEN. I MEAN, IT'S BEEN A WHILE.

THE OTHER HOME WAS ABANDONED AS BEING LIVED IN BY THE HOMELESS.

SO THE PD, WE GOT HIM OUT OF THERE. I DID A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY.

TOOK. YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THERE'S NO POWER, NO ELECTRIC. THERE'S NOTHING THERE ANYWAY. THEY WERE LIVING ON CAMPERS.

THEY HAD BROUGHT CAMPERS ONTO THIS PROPERTY. WAS THAT THE PROPERTY OWNERS THAT WERE LIVING ON THE CAMPERS? NO. NO HOMELESS PEOPLE.
