FLORIDA BUILDING CODE 105.1, 2017 PERMIT REQUIRED.
[00:25:05]
THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS ARE RENEW PERMIT 133210 AND OBTAIN PERMITS FOR ANY WORK OUT SIDE THE SCOPE OF THE EXPIRED PERMITS AND WE DO HAVE PICTURES OF WHAT WAS GOING ON AND EVERYTHING IS STILL THE SAME. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY PERMIT ASAPPLIED FOR. >> WOULD THE PHOTOGRAPHS SENT TO THE RESPONDENT HAVE BEEN SENT? DO THOSE DEPICT THE VIOLATIONS?
>> YES. >> THIS TIME I WILL MOVE IT IN
AS COMPOSITE ONE. >> IT WILL BE ADMITTED AS SUCH.
ANYTHING FURTHER? >> NO MA'AM.
>> ALRIGHT. AND SIR, HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO
THE ALLEGATIONS. >> I THINK THE ALLEGATIONS ARE WELL I WON'T SAY EXPIRED BUT THE INVESTIGATION OF PROBABLY DIDN'T READ INTO THE PERMIT BECAUSE ACCORDING TO WHAT I'M HEARING THAT WHEREVER THE CONTRACTOR WHEN HE WROTE IT DID NOT GIVE DETAILS ON EVERYTHING THAT HE DID BUT WHEN HE DID THE PROPERTY, THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY CHANGES IN THAT PERMIT.
AS FAR AS CONSTRUCTION SO EVERYTHING THAT WAS DONE, WHOEVER CAME OUT AND DID THE, WELL I DON'T THINK THEY DID A TOTAL FINAL CLOSE OUT ON THE PROPERTY BUT I THINK EVERYTHING WAS, THE WAY IT WAS WRITTEN THAT'S WHAT WAS DONE.
WE DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. WE TOPPED THE PROCESS BECAUSE MY MOTHER WAS I'LL AT THE TIME. WE DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING OR ADD ANYTHING SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A NEW INVESTIGATION BUT IT'S WORN OUT SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW DIDN'T LEAD TO THE PERMIT. THERE'S NO CHANGE THAT'S BEEN N
THIS PROPERTY NOW? >> AS A MATTER OF FACT WE HAD TO THE PERMIT PACKAGE TO GET STARTED WITH THAT, YES.
>> SO YOU DO HAVE A NEW PERMIT. >> YES, I DO HAVE A NEW ONE.
I LIVE DOWN SOUTH, BUT WHEN I'M BACK IN THE AREA I WAS GOING TO
PAY THE FEE TO GET IT REMOVED. >> SO YOU HAVE NOT RENEWED THE
PERMIT? >> WE HAVE TO CHANGE THE CONTRACT. I DON'T THINK THE CONTRACT IS SMALL ENOUGH TO DO A DETAILED PERMIT.
I THINK HE SAID MORE BROADLY AS FAR AS WRITING PERMIT SAYING IT'S GOING TO BE THIS AND THIS AND I'M NOT A CONTRACTOR BUT FROM LOOKING AT IT, WHAT I SEE, THE PAPERWORK HE GAVE ME HE DIDN'T SAY THAT HE WANTED THIS OR WHERE HE WAS TAKING IT, HE SAID BASICALLY HE WAS GOING TO BE I GUESS DOING THE WORK ON THE
PROPERTY. >> ANYTHING FURTHER?
>> WELL OTHER THAN LIKE I SAID I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE INVESTIGATOR LOOKED AT BEFORE BUT THE PROJECT IS NOT DONE AND I THINK ONCE WE GET STARTED IT WILL BE GOING INTO MORE DETAIL WITH THIS
CONTRACTOR. >> ANYTHING FURTHER?
>> JUST FOR CLARITY. THIS IS SHAUN COSS BUILDING COORDINATOR. THE SCOPE DID NOT PROVIDE FOR INSULATION OF DOORS BUT WE HAVE PULLED THE PERMIT AND VERIFY THAT IT DID INCLUDE THAT WORK SO THE ONLY REMAINING ISSUE IS THE PERMIT FROM 2013 NEEDS TO BE RENEWED AND WHATEVER WORK IF ANY WORK WAS UNFINISHED WOULD NEED TO BE AND THE FINAL INSPECTIONS
NEED TO BE OBTAINED. >> SIR, DID YOU HEAR THAT?
>> I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THAT. LIKE I SAID, ONCE WE REMOVE THIS CONTRACT IT'LL STATE WHATEVER WE'RE GOING TO DO FURTHER.
>> ONCE YOU RENEW THE PERMIT IN THIS CASE YOU HAVE 180 DAYS TO GET EVERYTHING DONE IF YOU RUN INTO PROBLEMS JUST GET WITH THE
BUILDING DEPARTMENT, OKAY? >> YES, MA'AM.
