[A. 20-2192 3205 S US Hwy 1 Ave Maria Company LLC Shaun Coss]
>> FIRST CASE 22-851. 2514 AVENUE Q.
GOOD MORNING 2246192. OWNED BY MAY REESEA COMPANY LLC. THIS MATTER CAME BEFORE THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE ON MARCH 17TH, 2021.
AFFIDAVIT OF NONCOMPLIANCE RECORDED DECEMBER 30TH, 2021. ONCE PERMITS WERE ISSUED ALL FINAL INSPECTIONS HAVE BEEN APPROVED.
AFFIDAVIT OF COMPLIANCE WAS RECORDED JULY 13TH, 2022.
THE FINES ACCRUED TO 19,330. INCLUDING $30 IN RECORDING FEES. THERE'S THREE CRITERIA TO CONSIDER IN REDUCTION OF THE FINES.
ONE THE GRAVITY OF SERIOUSNESS OF THE VIOLATION WAS MODERATE. TWO ANY AND ALL ACTION TAKEN BY THE VIOLATOR THE CORRECT THE VIOLATION.
THEY OBTAINED PERMIT, RECEIVED FINAL APPROVE INSPECTIONS ON JULY 11TH, 2022.
AND THREE THE NUMBER OF TIMES VIOLATOR WAS PREVIOUSLY FOUND IN VIOLATION BY EITHER THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD SPECIAL MAGISTRATE OR QUASI-JUDICIAL OR JUDICIAL PROCESS WHERE OTHERWISE IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING WAS ZERO TIMES. STAFF CALCULATED THEE ADMINISTRATIVE COST IN THIS CASE TO BE $1,623.42.
AND WE HAVE THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OWNER IS PRESENT THIS MORNING AS WELL AS THE CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBLE FOR PULLING THE PERMIT.
>> GOOD MORNING. STATE YOUR NAME.
>> STATE YOUR NAME. >> WILLIAM DAWSONVILLE.
WE DID PULL PERMIT ON JULY 2021.
MR. VINNY WAS REJECTED SAID WE DO THE MONEY ON THE WRONG PARCEL. SINCE THEN WE GET BACK TO VINNY. HE NEVER RETURNED NO PHONE CALL AND FINALLY WHEN WE GET TOGETHER WITH THEM WE PROVE EVERYTHING WAS RIGHT AND THEN HE APPROVE IT.
MY QUESTION IS, WE DON'T DO ANYTHING WRONG AT ALL AND THE RIGHT PARCEL, IT MAKES NO SENSE FOR US TO PAY FOR HIS MISTAKE. I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY SENSE TO PAY EXTRA MONEY. WE DON'T ANYTHING MORE ON
[00:05:05]
ANYTHING FURTHER? >> I'M THE PROPERTY OWNER.
I THINK THERE WAS SOME ISSUES WITH THE MONUMENT THAT WAS BUILT WAS NOT ON THE PROPERTY LINES AND I THINK THREE TIMES SUBMITTED. I'M NOT SURE DURING TIMES WHEN PEOPLE ARE NOT IN OFFICE OR SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE PAPERS WERE NOT TRANSFERRED OVER.
I'M NOT SURE. BUT IT WAS ON THE PROPERTY.
AND I THINK THAT WHAT YOU KNOW, I DON'T THINK THAT WE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO PAY THESE FINES.
[INAUDIBLE] WHEN WE PULL THEM.
YOU DON'T LOOK AT IT GOOD. WHEN YOU LOOK CAREFULLY, MAYBE AFTER THE YEAR, THEN HE SAID OKAY.
>> GO AHEAD. >> THIS IS THE WAY IT IS.
>> MR. COSS. >> WHEN WE RECEIVED THE REQUEST FOR REDUCTION. THAT'S THE FIRST TIME I HEARD OF THE ISSUES. THEY ARE REFERRING TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT.
THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY OUTSIDE THE CONTROL OF THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT. I'M NOT AWARE OF ANY DELAYS.
ALTHOUGH I DO BELIEVE MR. JOSEPH I'M NOT CONTESTING THAT. HOWEVER, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS CASES ISSUED BECAUSE THE WORK BEGAN BEFORE PERMIT WAS ISSUED OR EVEN APPLIED FOR FOR THAT MATTER. THE OWNER IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR PERFORMING THE WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT
BEING ISSUED. >> I DID PAY SOMEONE TO DO THE WORK. I WAS NOT AWARE THAT, THAT PERSON DID NOT PULL A PERMIT AND HAS SINCE VANISHED.
THAT'S WHEN A LOT OF THIS STUFF TRANSPIRED.
I LEARNED THERE WAS NO PERMIT ISSUES.
I'M NOT SURE IF THERE WAS SOME LETTERS OR -- BECAUSE CERTAIN CORRESPONDENCE, I DON'T KNOW IF ADDRESSES ARE WRONG OR NOT. I THINK ROLAND GOT IT AND WE WOULD WE WOULD TRY TO ADDRESS EVERYTHING AS
QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. >> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE.
STAFFS A REQUEST THAT THE FINES OF 19,330, THAT THEY BE REDUCED TO $1,500. WHICH IS REFLECTION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE COST MINUS $123.42.
>> DID YOU ALL HEAR WHAT MR. COSS SAID TO RESOLVE
WE HEAR THAT PART. AGAIN WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, I DON'T SEE WHY WE HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING IF YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. AND WE ALREADY PAID THE CONTRACTOR TO DO THE JOB AND HE THOUGHT THE GUY WAS LICENSED. THE GUY TOOK HIS MONEY AND TOOK OFF. STILL WHEN THE INSPECTOR SAID YOU DO THE JOB WITH NO PERMIT.
THEN HE PAID US. HE HAD TO PAY THE ENGINEERING A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE BLUEPRINT.
IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO PAY ANOTHER DOLLAR FROM SOMETHING THAT'S NOT HIS OR MY FAULT.
>> MR. COSS, HOW MUCH YOU ASKING FOR?
>> $1,500. YOU KNOW, YOU'RE NOT THE FIRST PERSON THAT HAS COME IN HERE WHO HAD SOMEBODY UNLIKE WHO HAS COME BEFORE THIS BOARD NUMEROUS TIMES.
BUT THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ARE NOT DOING WHAT THEY SHOULD BE DOING. AND SO THE CITY WAS INITIALLY ASKING FOR A 19,330 IN FINES.
PLUS $30 IN RECORDING FEE. IT'S UNFORTUNATE.
IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE DOING WORK THAT THEY SHOULD NOT BE DOING.
CHARGING PEOPLE MONEY THAT THEY SHOULD NOT BE CHARGING.
THAT'S NOT THE CITY'S FAULT. THAT'S NOT THE CITY'S FAULT.
[00:10:05]
WHEREAS THE CITY AGAIN WAS ASKING FOR $19,330 THEY AREJUST NOW ASKING FOR $1500? >> YES, MA'AM.
>> I DON'T SEE WHY THAT'S NOT UNREASONABLE.
>> UNFORTUNATELY, I'M OKAY WITH THE RECOMMENDATION.
I THINK SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE WE HAD SUBMITTED STUFF IN. AND I THINK THINGS WERE DELAYED. I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN -- ALL THE BLAME COMES TO US THAT WE DIDN'T TURN THINGS IN PROPERLY. YOU KNOW, FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD IT WAS LIKE PLANNING DENIAL, NOTHING OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF BILLING DEPART. PLANNING DENIAL, DENIAL, DENIAL. HOW, BECAUSE A SURVEY WAS GIVEN WHEN I BUILT THE BUILDING YEARS BACK.
THE CITY HAS COPY. THERE'S ANOTHER COPY WHEN BUILT IN 2007 WHEN I DID REMODELLING THERE AS WELL.
FOR SOMEONE TO SAY THINGS WERE NOT DONE ON MY PROPERTY, BECAUSE I HAD BROUGHT DOT DOWN AND EVERYTHING DOWN BEFORE I PUT THE MONUMENT THERE.
FOR SOMEONE TO SAY THAT IT'S NOT YOU KNOW OO MOTHER MARY STATUE IS NOT ON MY PROPERTY WHEN I HAD BROUGHT EVERYBODY THERE. THERE WAS A REASON THAT MONUMENT WAS PUT THERE. THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY. WHY WAS THIS DELAYED.
IT WAS GOING ON AND ON AND ON.
I WANTED IT RECTIFIED AWAY. I'M OKAY WITH THE RECOMMENDATION. ITS JUST LIKE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD -- I WISH IT WAS TAKEN CARE A LONG TIME BACK. I HAD SUBMITTED AND WAITED AND SUBMITTED AND WAITED AND PESTERED MR. ROLAND, HEY, WHAT'S GOING ON. I JUST COME TO FIND OUT RECENTLY WHEN I FOUND OUT THERE'S A LEAN ON THE
PROPERTY. >> YOU'RE IN AGREEMENT WITH
>> HOW MUCH ARE YOU ASKING FOR.
>> $1500. >> YOU IN AGREEMENT WITH
>> BASED ON THE STIPULATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, FINE YOU $1500. YOU HAVE -- HOW MUCH TIME DO
YOU NEED TO PAY IT? >> I CAN PAY IT TODAY.
>> OKAY. I WILL GIVE YOU 30 DAYS TO
PAY. >> WE WILL GET THIS PAID TODAY. WE WILL GET THIS LIEN
>> JUST FOR THE RECORD THERE'S NO LIEN.
THE LIEN HAS NOT BEEN RECORDED.
THIS HEARING TODAY WAS FOR THE IMPOSITION OF THE LIEN.
SINCE YOU'VE COMPLIED, PRIOR TO THE HEARING TODAY, THIS IS BEING TREATED AS THE FINE REDUCTION.
>> ONCE THE FINE IS PAID, A RELEASE WILL BE RECORDED
WITH THE CLERK OF COURT. >> THANK YOU.
>> GOOD LUCK. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, WE WOULD BE ASKING FOR REVERSION. IF IT'S NOT PAID IN THE TIME FRAME THAT IT REVERTS BACK TO $19,330.
>> FOR THE RECORD, THAT'S FINE.
>> I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTOOD THAT.
GENLT -- GENTLEMEN IF YOU DON'T PAY IN THE TIME PERIOD IT WILL REVERT BACK TO $19,330.
>> YES, WE WILL GET IT TAKEN CARE OF.

SIR, WHAT KIND OF BUILDING IS THIS?
>> IT'S -- WHEN I PURCHASED THE BUILDING.
IT'S A BUILDING THAT PRETTY MUCH A BODY SHOP THAT MOVED.
MORE SO USED FOR STORAGE, WHICH IS WHAT I USE THE BUILDING. THERE'S A CAR LOT NEXT DOOR TO THE BUILDING. THERE'S A CAR LOT BUT THE BUILDING HAS NEVER BEEN USED FOR ANY BUSINESS.
USED MAINLY FOR STORAGE. THERE'S NOT OPERATIONS OUT O OF THE BUILDING. I JUST USE IT AS STORAGE.

SPECIAL MANAGE ADMINISTRATE. THERE APPEARS TO BE ONE CHUNK OF STUCCO THAT HAS FALLEN.
YOU CAN SEE IT'S MISSING IN THERE.
THE FEAR IS THAT IF IT CONTINUES TO FALL SOMEONE BEING HURT. OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT THE WORST BUILDING THAT WE'VE EVER SEEN IN THE FEAR IF THOSE PIECES FALL THEY COULD INJURE SOMEONE.
>> ANYTHING FURTHER MR. BRUCE?
>> LIKE I SAID SPECIAL MAGISTRATE.
I HAVE ALL MY TEXT MESSAGES. THE LAST PERSON LIKE I SAID I COULDN'T GET A CONTRACT OR AN ENGINEER.
YOU HAVE TO COME OUT AND LOOK AT THE BUILDING.
I'M ASKING FOR ANOTHER 90 DAYS.
WITHIN 90 DAYS IF I CAN'T GET SOMEONE TO WORK ON THE BUILDING, WE WILL JUST DEMOLISH THE BUILDING.
I WILL HAVE THE CONTRACTOR DEMOLISH THE BUILDING.
