>> RIGHT NOW, I JUST HAVE IT SITTING THERE UNTIL I CAN AFFORD TO FIX IT . RIGHT NOW, I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT JUST ABORTING IT UP UNTIL I CAN GET THE MONEY TO FIX IT UP. IT IS VACANT , SO-- I WAS JUST GOING TO BOARD IT UP UNTIL I AM ABLE TO GET SOME WORK DONE.

COULD EVEN TRY TO DO THAT? >> RIGHT NOW, I JUST STARTED DIALYSIS , SO I AM NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING RIGHT NOW. I CAN'T SET A DATE . I JUST WANT TO KNOW, CAN I JUST BOARD IT UP?-- UNTIL I CAN GET SOME WORK DONE ON IT .

THAT. >> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, THE STRUCTURE IS IN SUCH A STATE OF DISREPAIR , EVEN IF IT WAS BOARDED , THERE IS PORTIONS OF IT THAT ARE SUBJECT TO COLLAPSE, AS SHOWN IN PHOTO II. STAFF WOULD NOT BE AGREEABLE TO JUST BOARDING UP THE STRUCTURE . UNFORTUNATELY, AT SOME POINT , THE STRUCTURE DOES NEED TO BE BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE , WHETHER THAT IS COMPLETELY RENOVATED OR DEMOLISHED , THAT WOULD BE UP TO THE PROPERTY OWNER. WE WOULD BE AGREEABLE TO PROVIDING AN EXTENDED TIME TO COMPLY IF THE STRUCTURE WAS BOARDED, BUT AT SOME POINT , HE DOES NEED TO

COME INTO COMPLIANCE. >> THERE IS ONE PART OF THE HOUSE, THE SIDE , WHEN I BOUGHT IT, I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS A PIECE THAT THEY JUST ADDED ON . I WAS JUST THINKING , COULD I JUST HEAR THAT PIECE OFF, AND THEN BOARD THE REST OF THE HOUSE? THAT PIECE IS -- WAS NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE THERE.

THAT IS JUST SOMETHING THEY PUT ON THE HOUSE. I DID NOT KNOW THAT THEY HAD JUST READ IT UP THEMSELVES UNTIL AFTER I PURCHASED IT . I WAS JUST WONDERING , IF I CAN JUST HEAR THAT PIECE OFF, AND BOARD THE REST OF THE HOUSE UP?

>> YOU WOULD STILL NEED TO GET WITH AN ARCHITECT OR ENGINEER TO HAVE DRAWINGS PREPARED TO ABOLISH THAT SECTION TO CLOSE OFF THAT PORTION OF THE HOUSE ONCE IT IS OPENED UP . AGAIN, BOARDING THE STRUCTURE WOULD BE A TEMPORARY FIX. AT SOME POINT, THE ROOF, ELECTRIC , EVERYTHING ELSE THERE WOULD STILL NEED TO BE BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE. I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU SAID PREVIOUSLY, BUT IF YOU HAD TO TAKE A WILD GUESS, OR THINKING YOU COULD RENT THE PROPERTY IN COMPLIANCE WITHIN MONTHS, A YEAR, TWO YEARS, OR LONGER THAN THAT, WHAT IS YOUR

GUESS ? >> AT LEAST A YEAR.

>> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, STAFF'S MOTION WOULD BE TO PROVIDE THE RESPONDENT 120 DAYS TO SECURE THE STRUCTURE , AND TO PROVIDE ONE YEAR TO OBTAIN A PERMIT TO BRING ALL OF THE VIOLATIONS

[00:40:03]

DIFFERENT DEADLINES. >> 120 DAYS TO SECURE IT, ONE

YEAR TO OBTAIN THE PERMITS? >> YES, MA'AM.

>> FOR A COMPLETE RENOVATION OR DEMOLITION.

UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS SAYING?

>> I HAVE 120 DAYS TO TAKE CARE OF THAT STRUCTURE, THE

SIDE STRUCTURE . >> EXPLAINED IT MR. COSS, I DON'T WANT TO STEP ON YOUR TOES.

>> 120 DAYS TO BOARD THE STRUCTURE , AND HAVE THAT PIECE OF THE STRUCTURE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THAT COULD POTENTIALLY COLLAPSE , TO HAVE THAT ADDRESSED WITH AN ARCHITECTURE ENGINEER. A PERMIT WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR THAT FOR A PARTIAL DEMOLITION TO BOARD OF THE REST OF THE WINDOWS AND DOORS. ONCE THAT IS COMPLETED , YOU WOULD HAVE A YEAR FROM TODAY TO COMPLETE THE REST OF THE WORK TO OBTAIN A PERMIT, RATHER, TO COMPLETE THE REST OF THE WORK .

>> OKAY. I AM FINE WITH THAT. >> YOU ARE OKAY WITH THAT?

ANYTHING FURTHER? >> NO, MA'AM .

>> AND IF I DON'T SAY THIS CORRECT, PLEASE CORRECT ME.

BASED ON THE TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE PRESENTED, I FIND THAT A VIOLATION EXISTS AT 26 14TH AVENUE AND QUEEN GIBBS IS THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY FOR THE VIOLATION. YOU HAVE GOT 120 DAYS TO BOARD IT UP OR SECURE THE STRUCTURE, THE PART YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THAT YOU DISCOVERED AFTER YOU PURCHASED IT, THAT SOMEBODY ADDED IT ON WITHOUT PROPER PERMITTING .

THEN, ONCE YOU GET THAT DONE, THE CITY HAS AGREED TO GIVE YOU ONE YEAR TO OBTAIN PERMITS FOR DEMOLITION OF THE PROPERTY.

LUCK . >> SORRY, I MIGHT HAVE MISSED IT . DID YOU ORDER THE FINE OF $100 PER DAY IF SHE DOES NOT

COME BY WITH THOSE DEADLINES? >> YEAH, BUT I AM HOPING SHE WILL COME BACK BEFORE THEN. SHE WORKS WITH THE CITY.

>> AND SHOULD CALL THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT IF YOU ARE GOING TO MISS THOSE DEADLINES, SO THEY CAN TRY AND WORK WITH YOU . THEN, THE 30 DAYS TO APPEAL, AS WELL.

OKAY. >> I UNDERSTAND THAT, I DON'T WANT TO MAKE A MESS, BUT WE DON'T HAVE ANY KIND OF INFORMATION ABOUT THAT, NOT IN THE ROAD.

[01:15:04]

TIME TO DO THAT? >> I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU SOME

>> I AM LEASING THAT PARTICULAR UNIT.

>> WE APPLIED FOR A PERMIT ON THE 21ST AND I THINK MR. COSS COULD BE PRETTY OPEN THAT I HAVE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH HIM THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT EXACTLY IT IS THAT WE NEEDED. EVERYTHING HE SAID THAT WE NEED, I PROVIDED .

WE APPLIED FOR THE PERMITS . JUST ON THE 5TH, WELL, WE SUBMITTED A PERMIT WITH ENGINEERS AND ARE WAITING FOR THE PLANS TO BE REVIEWED. THEY CAME BACK TO US ON THE 5TH, WHICH WAS LAST WEEK, AND SAID, WE NEEDED TO ADD AN EXTRA REST ROOM. THIS WAS COMPLETELY BLIND SIDING. I DID NOT HAVE ANY IDEA OF ANYTHING, BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY COMPLIANT . I APPLIED FOR THE PERMIT. I GOT THE ENGINEER PLANS, SUBMITTED THE SET OF ENGINEERING PLANS . SO, WE HAVE BEEN IN COMPLIANCE. I DON'T KNOW WHY -- EVEN

[01:20:03]

>> OKAY. YOU SAID , YOU ARE WAITING ON THE CITY? THEY SPOKE

WITH THE CITY? >> YES, MA'AM. WE SUBMITTED PLANS, APPLIED FOR THE PLANS OF A 21ST. THE UNIT, FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, NEVER HAD ENGINEERING PLANS. IT WAS USED WHEN I RENTED THE PLACE, IT WAS TURNKEY, SO WE THOUGHT.

EDUCATION FACILITY, SOMETHING WE WERE USING IT FOR. IT NEVER HAD A SET OF PLANS. WE PAID $3000 FOR A SET OF PLANS, COMMITTED TO THE CITY, WAITED FOR THE CITY TO REVIEW THE PLANS, AND THE CITY SENT IT TO THE FIRE. WE HAVE BEEN DOING EXACTLY-- WHATEVER THEY ASK OF ME, I DID. I WAS PRETTY OPEN WITH MR. WINN ONE, LISTEN, LET ME KNOW WHAT WE NEED , SO I CAN DO EVERYTHING WE NEED TO BE DONE, BECAUSE I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE TRYING TO DO THINGS BEHIND PEOPLE BACK . I WANT TO DO EVERYTHING UPFRONT, PAY FOR WHAT I NEED TO PAY FOR AND MOVE FORWARD. WE HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING . IN FACT, WE RECEIVED SOMETHING FROM THE CITY ASKING US TO REVIEW THE PLAN. I HAD AN ARCHITECT COME YESTERDAY TO REVIEW THE PLAY THAT HE WILL SUBMIT BACK TO THE CITY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT-- HE HAS BEEN DOING EVERYTHING THAT

HAS BEEN ASKED. >> OKAY. DID HE TELL YOU ABOUT WHEN HE WOULD EXPECT TO HEAR FROM THE CITY ABOUT THE NEWLY

REVISED PLANS? >> NO, MA'AM. IT WAS NOT DOCUMENTED . WE ARE THINKING IT IS JUST AN OVERSIGHT.

DEFINITELY NOT POINTING THE FINGER ON THE CITY OR ANYTHING, BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH MR. COSS. I AM THINKING, THEY JUST DID NOT KNOW THAT WE HAVE THE PLANS APPLIED FOR.

THIS HAS BEEN BACK IN NOVEMBER.

>> IF I COULD JUMP IN, WHAT I AM HEARING IS ENGINEERING SENT IT BACK TO YOU AND THAT, BASICALLY, YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH RESTROOMS FOR THE SPACE AND YOU NEED TO ADD A RESTROOM.

THE PERMIT HAS BEEN SENT BACK TO YOU, BUT YOU HAVE NOT SENT IT BACK TO THE CITY WITH THOSE LIMITED PLANS., A FEW DAYS

AGO. >>, IT IS WITH YOU. THE CITY WOULD BE WAITING ON YOUR TEAM TO DO THE AMENDMENTS REQUIRED

BY THE DEPARTMENT. >> WE HAVE APPLIED FOR THE PERMIT. AS IT IS LOOKING NOW, WE ARE REALLY HAVING TO APPLY FOR PERMITS, WHICH WE HAVE APPLIED FOR THE PERMITS IN

NOVEMBER. >> MR. WINN TESTIFIED TO THE FACT THAT YOU APPLIED FOR THE PERMITS . WE KNOW YOU HAVE APPLIED. MR. COSS, DID YOU WANT TO ADD SOMETHING?

>> YOU SAID WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY.

>> IN QUEUE. >> YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE THE CITY TO LOOK AT THE PLANS AND APPROVED?

>> IT DEPENDS ON WHEN WE GET BACK. IT IS NOT WITH CURRENTLY. A ONE TO TWO AT TURNAROUND. THE PLANS WERE JUST REJECTED LAST. WE ARE AWAITING REVISIONS . ONCE WE RECEIVE REVISIONS, WE WILL GET THOSE REVIEWED AGAIN.

>> WE HAD ENGINEERS YESTERDAY. HOPEFULLY, HAVE THEM DONE TODAY. HOPEFULLY, IT IS NOT A LOT OF WORK. LIKE A DAYS WORTH OF WORK AND WE WILL BE APPLYING FOR THE PERMIT FOR YOU GUYS AND

APPROVED IT. >> DO YOU WANT TO REVIEW THIS,

OR SHOULD I GIVE MORE TIME? >> ARE THEIR STUDENTS PRESENT

HERE? >> STAFF WOULD BE AGREEABLE TO

CASE, ALSO. >> ALSO HERE FOR CASE 6B , A MESSY HEARING. 22-1896, 1106 NORTH 17TH STREET. NORANNIE REALTY CORPORATION IS THE OWNER.

>> FOR 1106 NORTH 17TH STREET, INITIATED JUNE 6, 2022. THE POVERTY IS OWNED BY NORANNIE REALTY CORPORATION . THE VIOLATIONS AT THE PROPERTY ARE FOR BORDER BUILDING CODE 105.1, PERMIT REQUIRED. THIS CAME BEFORE MAGISTRATE OCTOBER 18, 2022 IN AN ORDER DETERMINING THE VIOLATION WAS AN AFFIDAVIT OF NONCOMPLIANCE. THE VINES WAS RECORDED OCTOBER 26, 2023. ON NOVEMBER 9TH, 2023, AN EMAIL WAS SENT TO THE OWNER EXPLAINING THAT THE ENGINEERS REPORT THE METER FOR

[01:30:02]

>> AND WHEN YOU EXPLAINED THAT, COULD YOU TELL US YOUR NAME AND RELATIONSHIP TO THE PROPERTY?

>> ONE OF THE OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY, ME AND MY WIFE OWNED THE PROPERTY. THIS WAS AN AFTER THE FACT PERMIT THAT WAS PULLED . AFTER WE PULLED THE PERMIT, I CALLED FOR THE INSPECTION.

THE INSPECTION WAS APPROVED . UNFORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE APPROVAL THAT I GOT WAS A PARTIAL APPROVAL , BECAUSE SINCE IT WAS AFTER THE FACT , THERE WAS ONE PERMIT PULLED FOR THE WORK THAT WAS DONE . I ASSUME THAT THE INSPECTION THAT I GOT COVERED THE WORK, SINCE THIS WAS AFTER THE FACT . I DID FIND OUT LATER ON, PROBABLY ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO, THAT THE INSPECTION THAT I DID GET DONE DID NOT COVER ALL THE WORK . I HAVE SINCE REOPENED THE PERMIT . I HAVE GOTTEN THE INITIAL LETTER , AND I AM TRYING TO GET AN INSPECTION FOR TOMORROW , SO I CAN PUT THIS BEHIND ME. IT WAS AN HONEST MISTAKE. I WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE APPROVAL THAT I GOT DID NOT COVER THE ENTIRE PERMIT . UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS A SPAN OF ALMOST EIGHT MONTHS FROM THAT FIRST INSPECTION, TO WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS NOT COMPLETED.

>> WHEN DO YOU THINK THE FORM OF THE APPLICATION WILL BE

COMPLETED? >> I ALREADY GOT THE APPROVAL FOR THE EXTENSION , I GUESS IT IS CALLED . IT IS PAID FOR . I SHOULD GET AN INSPECTION TOMORROW.

>> HOW LONG DID THEY GRANT THE EXTENSION FOR?

>> THEY GAVE ME THE EXTENSION PROBABLY 30 DAYS OR SO. I DON'T NEED ALL THAT TIME. I WILL CALL FOR THE INSPECTION TOMORROW , BECAUSE I HAVE ALL OF THE DOCUMENTS I NEED TO GET

IT CLOSED OFF. >> OKAY. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO

DO MR. COSS. >> DEFINES ARE RUNNING IN THIS CASE. LIKE THE RESPONDENT SAYS, HE HAS A PERMIT FOR THIS WORK.

IF HE IS GOING TO BE SUBMITTING LETTERS OR CALLING IN INSPECTIONS, STAFF WOULD BE AGREEABLE TO STAY THE AND CRUEL OF THE FINES AT THIS TIME. THEY WOULD REMAIN UNTIL THE PERMIT HAS BEEN HAPPILY CLOSED . AT THAT TIME, HE CAN COME BACK FOR A REDUCTION . IF THE PERMIT WERE TO EXPIRE WITHOUT BEING PROPERLY CLOSED, THE FINES WOULD RESTART AT THAT TIME.

>> DO YOU NEED TO SEE A COPY OF THE LETTER?

>> THIS IS AN ENGINEER LETTER IN LIEU OF INSPECTION. THIS WILL NEED TO BE SENT TO THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT AHEAD OF

TIME. >> I THINK I DID, WHEN I SUBMITTED FOR THE RENEWAL, OR WHATEVER IT WAS CALLED. I AM NOT EVEN SURE IF I DID THAT , I WOULD HAVE TO SEE. THEY DID

GIVE ME THE RENEWAL. >> THE RENEWAL WAS REQUESTED DECEMBER 19TH, THIS IS DATED JANUARY 9TH.

>> THIS IS CASE 22-326 FOR 2650 SOUTH KINGS HIGHWAY. THE CASE WAS INITIATED JANUARY 25TH, 2022. THE PROPERTY IS OWNED BY FORT PIERCE SOUTH KINGS HIGHWAY LLC OF 67 MOUNTAIN BOULEVARD NUMBER 201 WARREN, NEW JERSEY 07060. THE VIOLATIONS WERE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE SECTION 105.1, PERMIT REQUIRED. AN ORDER DETERMINING VIOLATION WAS AT OUR JANUARY 18TH MEETING, 2023. THE GRANT OF EXTENSION WAS GRANTED MARCH 21ST, 2023. IN ORDER TO APPROVE THE EXTENSION, A TIME WAS GRANTED OF SEPTEMBER 20TH, 2023. AFTER THE PERMIT HAD NOT BEEN ISSUED, AN AFFIDAVIT OF NOT COMPLYING STARTING THE FINES WAS RECORDED NOVEMBER 21ST, 2023. AS OF JANUARY 8TH, THE FINES TOTALED $4840. WE DID RECEIVE A REQUEST AND RESPONSE FROM THE MASSEY HEARING, WHICH HAS BEEN SCHEDULED FOR TODAY. THE PERMIT WAS ISSUED DECEMBER 6, 2023 . STAFF'S RECLAMATION IS TO STAVE THE ACCRUAL OF THE FINES UNTIL THE PERMIT HAS BEEN PROPERLY CLOSED . AT THAT TIME, THE RESPONDENT CAN COME BACK TO REQUEST REDUCTION. IF THE PERMIT WERE TO EXPIRE, THE FINES WOULD RESUME.

>> ANYTHING FURTHER? >> NO, MA'AM.

>> AND SIR, YOUR NAME? >> I AM MARK DUNN .

>> DID YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT MR. COSS JUST SAID ? I DID.

>> WAS THERE AN ADDITIONAL WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE?

>> THIS WAS IN REGARD TO PAVING OUTSIDE WORK AT THE PROPERTY. I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THE SITE LATELY, I AM NOT SURE IF CONSTRUCTION IS GOING. IT IS ABOUT TO START YOUR PAYMENT THIS IS NOT THE TIME . IT NEEDS TO BE AT THE END, WHEN THE PROJECT IS DONE. WHAT HAPPENED, WE ARE IN MEETINGS WITH DEVELOP ABOUT DEVELOPING THE ENTIRE SITE, WHICH IS A MAJOR PROJECT THAT WILL TAKE A GOOD YEAR OR MORE. AT THE TIME, IT WAS TO PAVE THE FRONT PART OF THE PARKING . THAT GOT DONE AFTER THE APPLICATION WAS TURNED IN, THERE WAS MISCOMMUNICATION WITH THE PAVING CONTRACTOR. IT WAS DECIDED THAT THEY NOT TO GO AHEAD WITH THAT PERMIT, BUT TO INCORPORATE THAT WORK INTO A LARGE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT, BECAUSE THAT WOULD AFFECT THE FRONT PART. OTHERWISE, WE COULD HAVE HAD A PAVEMENT CLOSED THAT PART ALREADY. THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE, WE HAD DEVELOPMENT GOING ON ABOUT A YEAR. I WAS COMMANDED 60 DAYS, I BELIEVE.

WE WERE DOING WHAT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO AND IT TOOK LONGER THAN 60 DAYS TO GET THE PERMIT, OTHERWISE, WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN FINED. IF WE WOULD HAVE SAID 90 DAYS, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN JUST FINE. IT WILL BE CLOSE TO A YEAR BEFORE THE PROJECT IS DONE, BECAUSE ENGINEERING FELT IT WAS SO THAT THEY SHOULD PUT THE PAVEMENT AS A PART OF A MAJOR DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, OTHERWISE, WE WOULD HAVE HAPPY SEPARATE PERMIT A YEAR AGO. IF THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO TRY TO HAVE THE FINES REMOVED, WE CAN ARGUE THAT AT THE END OF THE PROJECT, TOWARDS

THE END OF THE YEAR. >> I WILL SAVE THE FINES UNTIL IT CLIENT COMES INTO COMPLIANCE

THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS ARE, OBTAIN A PERMIT TO REPAIR , REPLACE ALL DAMAGED WIRING, ELECTRICAL FIXTURES, DRYWALL, SOFFIT AND FACIAL . ANY STRUCTURAL DAMAGE WILL REQUIRE A SIGNED AND HEALED REPAIR PLAN DESIGNED BY A REGISTERED DESIGN PROFESSIONAL. THE CITY REQUEST THAT IF SPECIAL MAGISTRATE FIND THE VIOLATION EXISTS, THE VIOLATORS BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN A PERMIT, OBTAIN 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 OF THE VIOLATIONS DESCRIBED IN THE ORDER NOT REQUIRING A PERMIT OR A FINE OF $100 PER DAY BE ASSESSED.

I, MYSELF MET WITH THE CONTRACTOR AT THE SITE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, PROVIDING A TIMELINE OF COMPLIANCE . NOT MUCH HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED SINCE THAT TIME.

STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE TO PROVIDE 180 DAYS TO OBTAIN A PERMIT . SO, WE ARE REQUESTING AN ORDER OF DETERMINATE VIOLATION BE FOUND. HOWEVER, I DO BELIEVE 180 DAYS WOULD BE MORE THAN A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF TIME TO

OBTAIN A PERMIT. >> OKAY.

>> AND THERE IS NOT A REPRESENTATIVE HERE ON BEHALF OF THE OWNER OR THE CO-OWNER.

BASED ON THE TESTIMONY OF MR. COSS, THE INFORMATION SUPPLIED , I WILL FIND THAT THERE IS A VIOLATION AND GIVE THEM 180 DAYS TO OBTAIN A PERMIT . 30 DAYS TO APPEAL . ANYTHING
