I PURCHASED, MY FRIENDS ARE VERY HANDY AND I PURCHASED THE HOUSE AND THEY WERE GOING TO HELP ME WITH THE OWNERS PERMIT TO FIX WHATEVER NEEDED TO BE FIXED AND I CAME TO THE CITY. AND THE ROOF WAS LEAKING AND I CAME TO THE CITY TO GET THE PERMIT FOR THE ROOF AND AT THE TIME WE HAD A BUNCH OF MATERIAL THINKING WE WOULD GET THE OWNER SE'S PERMIT TO FIX THE ROOF AND THEN THE CITY SENT ME BACK SOMETHING FROM WHERE I PURCHASED THE MATERIAL FROM AND I WENT AND OBTAINED THAT RECEIPT AND THEN THEY TOLD ME COULD NOT GET AN OWNER'S PERMIT BECAUSE THE FOREMAN WAS IN AREA-C, SO I HAD TO HIRE A CONTRACTOR TO DO THE WO WORK.

MR. TAYLOR, HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO THE ALLEGATION?
>> BASICALLY, MY FRIEND WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO OWNED THAT HOUSE AND HE CALLED ME AND ASKED ME TO COME AND HELP DO THE SERVICE ON THE HOUSE. SO TO ME, I WAS LIKE, YEAH, I WANTED A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY, SO I WENT TO HELP THEM WORK ON THE ELECTRICAL FROM THE HOUSE. WHEN HE CAME AROUND THE CORNER, HE SEEN ME ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY TOUCHING THIS STUFF AND I WAS REALLY THERE TO HELP SOMEONE ELSE WHO ACTUALLY WORKED THE PEOPLE. I DON'T WORK FOR THEM.
I WAS JUST HELPING MY FRIEND, ACTUALLY.
>> THAT'S A BIG PROBLEM EVERYWHERE NOW.
UNLICENSED CONTRACTORS. >> I WAS LITERALLY HELPING A FRIEND. IT WASN'T MY JOB.
I WAS HELPING SOMEBODY ELSE. >> ARE YOU TRYING TO GET A

>> LOGAN WINN , INSPECTOR. THIS ADDRESS IS 609 SOUTH 15TH STREET ALSO KNOWN AS 1500 EMERALD TERRACE.
THE CASE WAS ISSUED DECEMBER 20TH 2020.
THE OWNER IS JOHN SCHNEIDER OF 1717 SOUTH U.S. HIGHWAY ONE 5650 FORT PIERCE, FLORIDA. THE VIOLATIONS ARE FBC 105.1 PERMIT REQUIRED, 2017. 2018, EXTERIOR WALLS.
IP M5.3 INTERIOR SURFACES. IPMC 302.52018 RODENT HARBORAGE AND IP C 3019 INFESTATION. THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WERE TO OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR THE ROOF REPLACEMENT THAT WERE DONE WITHOUT A PERMIT AND OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR CONVERTING A SINGLE FAMILY HOME INTO A DUPLEX AND TREAT DWELLING AND SURROUNDING PROPERTY FOR RODENTS AND PESTS. TO REPAIR AND CLOSE HOLES IN EXTERIOR WALLS THAT ALLOW PESTS TO ENTER THE DWELLING AND NUMBER FIVE MAKE REPAIRS TO MULTIPLE HOLES INSIDE THE DWELLING.
I MET MR. SCHNEIDER AT THIS PROPERTY THE OTHER DAY.
[00:35:04]
CORRECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE FOR THREE, FOUR AND FIVE.THEY HAVE BEEN COMPLIED. THE ONLY THING LEFT WAS NUMBER ONE AND NUMBER TWO. I DO HAVE PICTURES.
>> THANK YOU. HAS HE SEEN THEM?
>> I DON'T BELIEVE SO. >> YES, HE CAME BY THE OFFICE AND WAS GIVEN A COPY OF THE PICTURES.
ANYTHING FURTHER, MR. LOGAN WINN?
>> NO MA'AM. >> MR. SCHNEIDER, HOW DO YOU
RESPOND TO THE ALLEGATION? >> I THINK THERE'S TWO.
THERE'S ONE WITH NO PERMIT FOR THE ROOF WORK BACK FIVE OR SIX YEARS AGO, WHENEVER THAT WAS. AN OLD ISSUE, BUT THERE WAS NO PERMIT AND I THINK THAT'S JUST SOME SORT OF A MISUNDERSTANDING AND TECHNICALITY BECAUSE I'M HOLDING THE PERMIT IN MY HAND.
IT'S NUMBER 18175. ISSUED AT THAT TIME.
I GUESS THAT WAS 2018. WAIT A MINUTE.
NO, THIS WAS FROM, NO THIS IS THE APPLICATION ON JANUARY 16TH
OF 2018, YEAH. >> DID YOU PULL THE PERMIT
I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD PULL A PERMIT AND THAT THERE WAS NO INSPECTION REQUIRED UNTIL THE FINAL INSPECTION, AND SO WE PROCEEDED TO DO WHAT WE HAD TO DO TO STOP THE LEAKS AND WHEN THE FINAL INSPECTION WAS READY WE CONTRACTED THE CITY FOR THE INSPECTION FINAL THAT WAS ALL THAT WAS REQUIRED AND THEN SOME SORT OF TECHNICALITIES A ROSE, BUT I THINK THEY WERE JUST TECHNICALITIES AND WE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB NOT ONLY BY CODE, BUT EXCEEDED CODE BECAUSE THAT'S HOW I DO BUSINESS.
THERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO MAINTENANCE AND IMPROVEMENTS AND TO MAKE THINGS BETTER ALL THE TIME.
>> SO WE HAD A PERMIT, AND IF THERE'S SOME STATEMENT THAT THERE'S NO PERMIT, THAT'S CLEARLY UNTRUE.
>> WELL YOU SAID YOU PULLED IT IN 2018.
>> YEAH. >> WHEN DID IT EXPIRE?
>> I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT EXPIRATION DATES.
THIS WAS FOR A 20 FOOT FLAT ROOF.
THAT'S ALL IT WAS FOR AND WE DID THE WORK AND IT WAS COMPLETE AND AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, WE'VE HAD NO ISSUES AND THERE'S CERTAINLY BEEN NO LEAKS, AND IF THERE'S OTHER ISSUES I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE. I UNDERSTAND ON THE COMPLAINT THE ISSUE WAS THERE WAS NO PERMIT AND I JUST ESTABLISHED THERE WAS A PERMIT
AND GAVE THE NUMBER. >> BUT IT LOOK LIKE THAT PERMIT
EXPIRED SOME TIME AGO. >> BUT THE ROOF WAS COMPLETED
FIVE YEARS AGO. >> THEN YOU CONVERTED A SINGLE
FAMILY HOME INTO A DUPLEX. >> NO, THAT'S NONSENSE.
IT'S BASICALLY A MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE THAT WE USE FOR MAINTENANCE. THERE WAS A HANDY MAN CHARACTER WHO FILLED IT UP WITH DOGS AND ATTRACTED RATS FROM A NEIGHBORING HOUSE WHERE THE RATS WERE COMING FROM AND HE PUT A MAILBOX OUT THERE. GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.
I AM NOT INTERESTED IN A DUPLEX OR EMERALD AVENUE ADDRESS.
THAT WAS PURELY HIS DOING AND WE FINALLY GOT HIM OUT OF THERE AND GOT RID OF HIM AND HIS MAILBOX AND HIS DOGS AND RATS AND HIS SMELL, SO THE GUY TURNED OUT TO BE SOME SORT OF EX-CONVICT AND PURELY TROUBLE AND I THINK HE HAD SOME SORT OF A FRIEND DOWNTOWN THAT HELPED HIM PUT TOGETHER SOME SORT OF COMPLAINT TO RETALIATE MY HAVING HIM REMOVED WITH HIS DOGS AND RATS.
I SPOKE TO THE PEOPLE NEXT DOOR THAT WERE APPARENTLY THE SOURCE OF THE RATS AND THIS IS THE SAME TIME THAT I WAS IMPLEMENTING THE REMEDIES AND CLOSING THE HOLES WITH STEAL AND MESH AROUND THE ROOF AND ANY ACCESS THAT WAS THERE FOR A RAT.
WE DID THAT AT THAT TIME AND WHAT A PROFESSIONAL RAT EXPERT AND HE TOLD US HOW TO REMEDY IT AND WE DID THAT AND WE ALSO
[00:40:03]
INSTALLED AN ELECTRONIC PEST CONTROL SYSTEM TO KEEP RATS AND OTHER PESTS OUT. JUST TO BE EXTRA THOROUGH.AS FAR AS I CAN SEE THAT'S BEEN WORKING EFFECTIVELY.
I WENT TO THE PEOPLE NEXT DOOR THAT WERE THE SOURCE OF THE RATS AND I SAID, APPARENTLY YOU GUYS HAVE A RAT INFESTATION AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT AND THEY REPLIED NOTHING AND SAID THEY'RE GOING TO DO NOTHING AND
SO, YOU KNOW. >> SO SPECIAL MAGISTRATE IF I
CAN INTER POSE FOR A SECOND. >> THANK YOU.
>> THE INFESTATION ISSUE HAS BEEN CORRECTED AND WE'RE NOT PROCEEDING ON THAT. I THINK IT'S ITEMS ONE AND TWO AND FOR THOSE PARTICULAR ITEMS THE PHOTOGRAPHS PROBABLY WOULD ASSIST YOU IN MAKING A DECISION, SO AT THIS TIME I WOULD ASK MR. LOGAN WINN IF YOU TOOK THE PHOTOGRAPHS IF THEY ACCURATELY
DEPICT WHAT YOU SAW? >> YES, MA'AM.
>> SO AT â– THISTIMEWEMOVETHE PHOTOGRAPHS IN AS CITY'S ONE
>> AND IF WE'RE ABLE TO GET THOSE UP ON THE SCREEN? OK OKAY.
>> SIR. YOU THINK YOU COMPLIED WITH EVERYTHING WITH IT LOOKING LIKE THAT? THESE WILL BE ADMITTED AS COMPOSITE ONE.
>> THANK YOU, MA'AM. >> IF WE CAN GO TO THE PHOTOS THAT RELATE TO THE VIOLATIONS ONE AND TWO?
>> THESE WERE PROVIDED TO THE RESPONDENT, CORRECT?
>> SO STARTING WITH THE PHOTOS LABELEDL AND M CAN YOU KIND OF WALK US THROUGH WHY YOU THINK TIS IS A VIOLATION?
>> SO THESE PICTURES PRETTY MUCH DEPICT THAT THE BACK ROOM THERE WAS AN EFFICIENCY. THAT'S A PICTURE OF THE AIR CONDITIONER AND A WALL PATCH THAT THEY DID FROM THE INITIAL PART OF THE VIOLATION. PICTURE M IS SOME OF THE KITCHEN AND FULL BATHROOM THAT'S ON IN THAT ROOM.
PICTURE M IS THE REFRIGERATOR AND THE OTHER PART OF THE KITCHEN. PICTURE O IS THE CLOSET IN THERE AND UNDER THE BLUE TARP THERE IS A BED.
AND THEN THAT'S THE REFRIGERATOR AND THE KITCHEN.
WHEN I WAS THERE FOR THE VIOLATION THE GENTLEMEN WAS LIVING THERE. HE HAD CANS OF FOOD AND HIS DOGS IN THERE AND CLOTHES. OBVIOUSLY SOMEBODY WAS LIVING
I'M SORRY, COUNCILLOR? >> THANK YOU SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, SO THIS TYPE OF ADDITION OR THIS TYPE OF WORK, TURNING THIS INTO THIS TYPE OF DWELLING IS NOT PERMITTED.
IT WAS NOT PERMITTED, CORRECT? >> CORRECT.
>> OKAY. AND WE SAW GOING BACK TO VIOLATION NUMBER ONE, WE SAW DID YOU SAY EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO
SAY ABOUT THE ROOF? >> YOU CAN SEE THAT THE ROOF HAD BEEN REPAIRED. YOU KNOW, IF HE DID HAVE A PERMIT FROM 2008. IF HE DID NOT HAVE IT INSPECTED
THE PERMIT EXPIRE? >> NOTHING FURTHER.
>> THANK YOU AND THAT'S MY CONCERN.
HE KEEPS SAYING HE HAD A PERMIT, BUT THAT PERMIT HAD EXPIRED.
>> SO THE ONLY CORRECTIVE ACTIONS ARE AS TO NUMBERS FOUR AND FIVE ARE COVERING HOLES THAT ALLOW PESTS TO ENTER THE DWELLING AND MAKE REPAIRS TO THE MULTIPLE HOLES IN THE WALLS
INSIDE THE BUILDING. >> HE SATISFIED THREE, FOUR AND
FIVE WHEN I WAS THERE. >> BUT THERE WAS A PROBLEM?
>> ANYTHING FURTHER, SIR? MR. SCHNEIDER?
[00:45:03]
IT SHOWS WE'RE STILL CONNECTED. >> I THINK WE ARE STILL
CONNECTED TOO. >> WE'RE CONNECTED, YES.
>> OKAY. >> ANY FURTHER EVIDENCE?
>> CAN YOU HEAR US? >> YES, I HEAR YOU, HELLO?
>> YES, WE CAN HEAR YOU. >> OKAY.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, BUT YEAH, TO MY KNOWLEDGE AND BASED ON THE COMMENTS OF THE INSPECTOR LAST WEEK THERE'S NO ISSUE WITH ITEMS TWO AND THREE AND FOUR, I THINK JUST THE FIRST ISSUE WHICH I THINK I DID EVERYTHING I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO AND THE INSPECTOR AT THAT TIME HAD SOME SORT OF TECHNICAL ISSUE, BUT THE ROOF WAS DONE EXPERTLY AND EXCEEDS CODE, I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT. AS FAR AS I KNOW THE ISSUE WAS THAT WHEN I GOT THE PERMIT THE LADY TOLD ME WE DIDN'T NEED TO HAVE AN INSPECTION UNTIL THE FINAL INSPECTION BECAUSE I IT WAS OWNER AND WE WERE DOING IT BY CODE SO WHEN THE FINAL INSPECTION ARRIVED THE UP SPECK OR THE HAD A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW. HE SHOULD HAVE HAD A LOOK BEFORE THE FINAL INSPECTION AND WE UNDERSTOOD THAT NOT TO BE THE CASE. SO WHEN HE ASKED US ABOUT HIS INSPECTION, HE SAID THAT HE HADN'T HAD A CHANCE TO DO ANY EARLIER INSPECTIONS, BUT I UNDERSTOOD ARE NOT REQUIRED.
HE WANTED US TO TEAR THIS BEAUTIFUL ROOF AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS INSANE SO WE DECLINE TO DESTROY THE ROOF AND THAT WAS THE ONLY ISSUE AND I THINK THAT'S A RIDICULOUS TECHNICALITY AND THE ROOF DOESN'T LEAK AND IT WAS DONE EXPERTLY AND TO THE HGHEST STANDARD BEST BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT CODE AND I'D LIKE TO SEE THIS GO AWAY AND PLEASE MAKE THAT OLD ISSUE GO AWAY. WE DID THE WORK IN A WONDERFUL FASHION AND THE TECHNICALITY SHOULD NOT CARRY FORWARD FIVE YEARS LATER SO PLEASE GET RID OF THAT ONE, ALL AS FAR AS LAST ONE IS CONCERNED, THE LITTLE ROOM WAS ORIGINALLY SET UP AS AN EFFICIENCY BECAUSE IT'S A MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE BEHIND THE MAIN HOUSE. OF COURSE IT IS AN EFFICIENCY.
ANY MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE WOULD REQUIRE THAT.
IT HAS NOT BEEN USED THAT WAY IN A LONG, LONG TIME.
IT'S A MAINTENANCE ROOM AND ALSO, USED FOR STORAGE.
THE RECENT PICTURES WILL SHOW THERE'S NO OCCUPANCY AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN FOR QUITE A WHILE AND WE'VE BEEN GETTING THE HOLES SEALED AND THE RATS ARE GONE AND ALL THAT STUFF WAS REMEDIED MONTHS AGO AND I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST IN OPERATING AS A DUPLEX AND I UNDERSTAND IF I EVER WANTED TO I WOULD JUST APPLY FOR A PERMIT, BUT THAT'S NOT MY INTEREST.
SO I CAN SEE THERE'S NO ISSUE THERE EITHER.
IT IS A TECHNICALITY THAT I REQUESTED JUST MAKE THOSE TWO GO AWAY, SO I CAN GET ON WITH MY LIFE.
PLEASE? >> MR. SNYDER THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN TAKE CARE OF THE TECHNICALITIES AND MAKE THEM GO AWAY IS YOU. NOW LISTEN, LISTEN.
I'VE HEARD ENOUGH TESTIMONY. THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS HERE CALL FOR YOU TO OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR THE ROOF REPLACEMENT WITHOUT A PERMIT AND OBTAIN PERMIT FOR CONVERTING A SINGLE FAMILY HOME INTO A DUPLEX. ALL THE OTHER CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN COMPLIED WITH AND NOW I FIND THAT VIOLATION EXISTS AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN AN PERMIT AND ALL IMPROVED INSPECTIONS EVERY 180 DAYS DONE UNTIL PERMIT IS CLOSED AND CURE ALL OTHER VIOLATIONS IN THE ORDER NOT REQUIRING A PERMIT OR A FINE OF $100 A DAY WILL BE ASSESSED.
IT'S NICE THAT YOU THINK YOU'VE DONE A GREAT JOB, BUT YOU HAVE TO MEET THE CITY BUILDING CODE AND I SUGGEST YOU GET WITH THE CITY OFFICIAL, SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED TO DO.
IF THIS IS NOT COMPLIED WITH I WILL FINE YOU $100 PER DAY.
>> WELL, WELL I WILL DO AS YOU ASK, OBVIOUSLY, I'M NOT AN ARGUMENTATIVE PERSON. I WILL GET WITH THE CITY OFFICIALS AS FAST AS I CAN AND AS FAST AS THEY ARE AVAILABLE, HOWEVER I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED ABOUT HOW MUCH TIME IS INVOLVED BEFORE YOU START FINING ME BECAUSE I'M CONCERNED TO CHEER
THIS THING UP. >> YOU GET WITH THE CITY BUILDING OFFICIALS AND THEY'LL EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO COME INTO COMPLIANCE, OKAY?
[00:50:02]
>> NOW IF I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A DUPLEX, DO I STILL HAVE TO GET A
PERMIT FOR A DUPLEX? >> YOU NEED TO GET WITH THE CITY, SIR. I CAN'T ANSWER YOUR QUESTION,
YOU NEED TO GET WITH THE CITY. >> I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. SO I THINK WE HAVE YOUR DECISION
AND I'LL PROCEED ON THAT BASIS. >> THANK YOU.
THANKS FOR CALLING IN. >> YOU BET.

>> OKAY. >> SO BOSSANO, BUILDING INSPECTOR. CASE NUMBER 21-538.
ADDRESS IS 310 SOUTH 33RD STREET.
THE OWNER IS ANTHONY AND MAGDALENA CROWDER.
7 7 7902, 67TH STREET. VIOLATION IS SBC 105.1, 2017, PERMIT REQUIRED. OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR THE A IRRIGATION SYSTEM. THE RECOMMENDATIONS IS RECEIVE A REQUEST THAT IF THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE FIND THE VIOLATIONS EXIST THAT THE VIOLATOR BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR APPROVAL FOR ALL AND PASS INSPECTION EVERY 180 DAYS UNDERSTAND THE UNTIL PERMIT HAS BEEN CLOSED AND COMPLY WITH ALL THE PERMIT CONDITIONS AND CURE ALL VIOLATIONS DESCRIBED THE ORDINANCE OR BE FINED $100 A DAY TO BE A SEED.
I HAVE THE PICTURES WHEN THEY WERE DOING THE WORK.
>> I DON'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT. SINCE WE DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO GET THE PHOTOGRAPHS TO THE RESPONDENT, WE'RE NOT GOING TO ENTER THEM, BUT MR. BOSSANO CAN, YOU TELL US WHETHER OR NOT YOU SAW AN IRRIGATION SYSTEM BEING INSTALLED OR WHETHER YOU SAW IT AFTER IT WAS COMPLETED? WHAT DID YOU SEE?
>> THE CASE STARTED THE IRRIGATION SYSTEMS WHERE I GAVE IT TO THE STAFF ORDER. IT WAS MADE A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER AND WHEN I PASSED THERE WAS COMPLETE FINISH.
>> SO YOU SAW THE WORK IN PROGRESS, CORRECT? AND YOU ISSUED A STOP WORK ORDER, CORRECT?
>> YES. >> AND THEN YOU CAME BACK SEVERAL DAYS LATER AND SAW THE WORK COMPLETED, CORRECT?
>> SO AS OF TODAY YOU'RE NOT AWARE OF ANY PERMITS HAVING BEEN
PULLED? >> YEAH, I SPOKE ABOUT THEM TRYING TO GET A PERMIT, BUT THEY DON'T GET NO PERMITS YET.
>> OKAY. >> I HAVE NOTHING FURTHER.
>> OKAY. >> ANYTHING? HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO THE ALLEGATIONS THAT DESPITE BEING TOLD TO STOP INSTALLING THIS SYSTEM YOU COMPLETED THE WORK
SO FIRST I WANT TO APOLOGIZE FOR WASTING EVERYBODY'S TIME HERE.
I HAD CONTRACTED CLEAR WATER IRRIGATION AND LAWN.
[00:55:05]
THEY ARE RECEIVED AS A CORPORATION AND I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE WENT FURTHER AND LOOKED AT TO MAKE SURE THIS GUY WAS LICENSED BECAUSE WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS HOME THAT WAS PROBABLY JUST A YEAR AGO, THERE WAS A PUMP AND THERE WAS IRRIGATION, IT JUST HAD NOT BEEN WORKING IN SOME TIME.THE PREVIOUS OWNER SAID IT DID WORK, BUT HE NEVER USED IT BECAUSE HE USED THE HOUSE AS A RENTAL PROPERTY.
SO IT WAS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT WE WERE NOT REPLACING THE OLD UNITS. THE UNITS WERE COMPONENTS TO THE SYSTEM. I STILL HAVE THE OLD SYSTEM STILL SITTING ON THE PROPERTY, SO THE GENTLEMEN, I FORGET HIS LAST NAME AT CLEAR WATER IRRIGATION AND LAWN DID NOT TELL ME I WAS REQUIRED TO PULL A PERMIT FOR THIS BECAUSE WE WERE REPLACING AN OLD UNIT. SO I WAS NOT AWARE YOU KNOW THAT I HAD TO PULL A PERMIT TO REPLACE AN OLD UNIT.
>> BUT YOU ARE AWARE NOW THAT YOU NEED TO PULL A PERMIT FOR
THIS WORK, SO I >> YES, MA'AM, I CALLED THE CITY SEVERAL TIME AND I WANT TO RESOLVE THIS.
MY OTHER SITUATION NOW IS FINDING SOMEONE WHO'S LICENSED AND WILLING. I'M HAVING A HARD TIME FINDING PEOPLE THAT ARE WILLING TO DO THE WORK AND WHEN I DO FIND SOMEONE, THEIR FIRST RESPONSE IS WE ONLY TAKE CASH, SO I'M A LITTLE WEARY OF COMPANIES THAT JUST TAKE CASH, YOU KNOW? THERE'S NOTHING TO BACK THAT UP, YOU UNDERSTAND SO I AM WORKING ON TRYING TO FIX THIS SITUATION, I JUST NEED MORE TIME.
>> FROM ME, NO. >> MR. BOSSANO? ALRIGHT. BASED ON THE TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE PRESENTED I FIND A VIOLATION EXISTS AT 310 SOUTH 33RD STREET AND THAT ANTHONY AND MAGDALENA CROWDER ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE VIOLATION. YOU WILL BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN A PERMIT AND APPROVAL FOR ALL REQUIRED INSPECTIONS AT LEAST EVERY 180 DAYS UNTIL THE PERMIT HAS BEEN CLOSED.
COMPLY WITH ALL OTHER PERMIT CONDITIONS, AND CURE ALL OTHER VIOLATIONS AS DESCRIBED THE ORDER NOT REQUIRING A PERMIT OR A FINE OF $100 A DAY WILL BE ASSESSED.
ONCE YOU PULL THE PERMIT YOU HAVE 180 DAYS TO BRING IT IN TO COMPLIANCE AND THAT'S SIX MONTHS AND I'M WELL AWARE OF HOW DIFFICULT IT IS RIGHT NOW TO FIND CONTRACTORS THAT DO PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING, BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH THE CITY'S BUILDING CODE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT AND THEY WILL GLADLY ASSIST YOU IN
WALKING THROUGH THIS. >> OKAY.
>> ANY QUESTIONS? >> NO MA'AM.

THE OWNER IS STATING THE ISSUES WITH PLANNING HAVE BEEN RESOLVED, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT ANYTHING FURTHER HAPPENED ON THIS SO HERE WE ARE. SO HOW DO YOU RESPOND?
>> YES, MA'AM. SO WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS ISSUE FOR A WHILE.
WE HIRED CONTRACTORS TO PULL THE PERMITS AND DO THE WORK AND FOR SOME REASON, HE DID NOT FOLLOW THROUGH AND DISAPPEARED AND HE WAS PAID. SO WE HAVE HIRED SEVERAL OTHER CONTRACTORS. ONE HAS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL AND HE GOT REALLY SICK. AND THE SECOND ONE HE DIDN'T FOLLOW THROUGH, AS WELL. SO NOW WE HAVE HIRED ANOTHER CONTRACTOR AND HE SEEMS TO BE DOING THE WORK THAT HE WAS HIRED TO DO, SO I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW, YOU KNOW, I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT THIS BEEN BEFORE YOU FOR A WHILE, BUT WE HAVE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE CONTRACTORS, SO I'M JUST ASKING YOU IF YOU COULD PLEASE FREEZE THOSE FEES AND AT LEAST FOR 90
[01:10:01]
TODAYS TO GIVE US OPPORTUNITY TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND THEPROBLEM. >> THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THAT IS THAT THIS CASE INITIATED ON AUGUST FIFTH OF 2019.
THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO. AND NOT VERY MUCH HAS BEEN DONE AND I DID STOP THE FINES I THINK A COUPLE OF TIMES.
>> I KNOW, BUT THE CONTRACTORS THAT WE HAD HIRED THEY FELL THROUGH, SO NOW WE HAVE ONE THAT'S DOING THE JOB AND HE'S ON TRACK, SO IF YOU COULD JUST PLEASE AND JUST GIVE US SOME TIME. HE SEEMS TO BE DOING THE JOB.
HE'S GETTING THINGS DONE. JUST SO SORRY WE'VE JUST HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE CONTR
CONTRACTORS. >> IN A RECENT ACTIVITY BEEN DONE ON THIS CASE REGARDING CONTRACTOR?
>> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE. SHAUN COST AND THE NEW CONTRACTOR, ROD WALLER WHO IS DOING BUSINESS AS THE CITYHAS SUBMITTED A REVISION TO THE PERMIT AND THE PERMIT HAS BEEN REJECTED THROUGH PLAN REVIEW AGAIN.
PRIOR TO SUBMITTED THE PERMIT I SPOKE WITH MR. WALLER MYSELF ADVISED HIM OF WHAT WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR A MINIMUM PLAN REVIEW REQUIREMENTS AND BRIEFLY LOOKED AT THE PLANS AND NOTED THAT THEY SEEM DEFICIENT. THE BUILDINGS WERE PREEXISTING.
AT THIS POINT THEY'RE PREEXISTING BECAUSE THEY WERE ALREADY THERE, BUT THEY NEED TO ADDRESS THESE AS IF NEW CONSTRUCTION. THE DETAILS ARE LACKING IN THE PLANS AND MR. WALLER WAS ADVISED OF THAT UP FRONT.
HE WANTED TO SUBMIT THE MAN'S ANYWAY TO GET A COMPREHENSIVE SET OF REVIEW COMMENTS AND THAT HAS BEEN DONE AND HE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE REJECTION. MRS. BROWN ARE YOU AWARE OF THAT
OR IS THIS NEWS TO YOU? >> THIS IS NEWS TO ME BECAUSE FROM WHAT I HEARD WAS THAT EVERYTHING WAS GOING AS PLANNED.
SO THIS IS NEWS TO ME. >> AND SPECIAL MAGISTRATE? RESPECTFULLY, THIS IS MY CONCERN WITH THIS CASE AND IN MY OPINION WHY IT'S CARRIED ON FOR SO LONG IS THE OWNERS JUST HAVE A LACK OF FOLLOW UP WITH THE CONTRACTORS.
ADMITTEDLY THERE WERE ISSUES WITH THE FIRST CONTRACTOR AND HE COULD NOT FULFILL THE CONTRACTOR THAT HE ENTERED INTO, HOWEVER IF I WAS THE OWNER OF THIS PROPERTY I WOULD BE CONTACTING THE MIKE CONLEY ASSISTANTLY FOR UPDATES AND THIS BEEN GOING ON FOR TWO YEARS AS YOU HAVE ALREADY STATED.
STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO PROVIDE A FINAL 60 DAY EXTENSION TO OBTAIN A PERMIT. IF THE PERMIT IS NOT OBTAINED IN THAT TIME THEN THE LIEN SHOULD BE IMPOSED WITHOUT THIS COMING
BACK BEFORE YOU. >> DID YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
>> YES, I DID. YOU KNOW, I JUST HIRED SOMEONE TO HANDLE THIS, SO I WILL STAY ON TOP OF THINGS IF YOU WOULD JUST EXTEND IT FOR GIVING US TIME TO CORRECT TISSUE TISSUES.
>> I'M GOING ALONG WITH THE CITY'S RECOMMENDATION, BUT I'M TELLING YOU THIS CASE WAS INITIATED AUGUST FIFTH OF 2019.
AND LITTLE HAS BEEN DONE, IF ANYT ANYTHING. SO I'LL SAY THE STIPULATION BETWEEN YOU AND THE STATE I'LL GIVE YOU A FINAL 60 DAY EXTENSION, BUT THAT'S THE LAST ONE.
>> THANK YOU, I APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> AND YOU NEED TO TELL YOUR CONTRACTORS OR MAYBE EVEN YOURSELF TO GET MORE INVOLVE IN THIS WHOLE PERMITTING PROCESS SO YOU ALL CAN AVOID THESE THINGS FOM CONTINUING TO HAPPEN.
>> YES, MA'AM. WILL YOU ALSO BE ABLE TO [INAUDIBLE] FREEZE THE FEES OR THE FINES
ASSOCIATED WITH THE PERMIT? >> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE THE FEES
WERE STAYED JUNE 16TH OF 2020. >> RIGHT.
[01:15:07]
THE FINES WERE RESTARTED BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T COMPLY ONCE AGAIN.SO YOU WANT TO GIVE THEM 60 TODAYS TO PULL A PERMIT OR STOP
THEM AGAIN? >> COULD YOU PLEASE STOP THEM,
PLEASE? >> I KNOW WHAT YOU WANT, BUT I'M
ASKING THE CITY? >> STAFF WOULD BE AGREEABLE TO STOPPING THE FINES AGAIN AND WE'LL CALCULATE THE TOTAL THAT
I'LL STOP THEM ONE MORE TIME, BUT I'M TELLING YOU THE NEXT TIME IF THERE IS NOTHING DONE ON THIS, DON'T EXPECT FOR ME TO CONTINUE ANYTHING. THE FINDS WILL RESUME.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. I APPRECIATE YOU.
THANK YOU. >> I THINK YOU GUYS ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION HERE AND IN THE MEANTIME, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO THIS PROPERTY.
>> THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
