THE PERMITS THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY APPLIED FOR FOR INTERIOR EMOTION -- DEMOLITION, REMAINS EXPIRED , SINCE DECEMBER. PRIOR TO MAKING A RECOMMENDATION, I WANT AN UPDATE FROM THE OWNER AS TO WHAT SHE ANTICIPATES COMPLETING DURING THIS EXTENSION THAT IS REQUESTED. YES. I WAS WORKING ON SUNRISE CITY CONSTRUCTION. >> THEY PULLED THE PERMITS. BUT AT THE TIME, THEY WERE BOOKED UP ON PREVIOUS JOBS. AND? THEY DID STATE THAT IT WOULD BE A COUPLE MONTHS BEFORE THEY CAN GET TO IT. YOU KNOW? UNTIL THEY FINISH UP , IT WAS TO PREVIOUS JOBS. BUT? I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE SECURING THE FUNDING. FOR THE PROJECT, A COUPLE ESTIMATES. AND THE LAST ESTIMATES, YOU KNOW? IT HAS BEEN HARD TO SECURE THE AMOUNT OF FUNDS.

AND DOORS. IN COMPLIANCE, IT IS HERE FOR A FINAL REDUCTION. THE AMOUNT OF FINES TOTAL $630, INCLUDING $30 OF RECORDING FEES. THERE ARE THREE CRITERIA TO CONSIDER IN REDUCTION OF THE FINES. ONE COME THE GRAVITY AND SERIOUSNESS OF VIOLATION IS MINIMAL. TO, ANY AND ALL ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE VIOLATOR TO CORRECT THE VIOLATIONS. PROPERTY MANAGER HAD PROPERTY INSPECTOR DID AFTER THE ORIGINAL HEARING. ALL VIOLATIONS WERE CORRECTED EXCEPT FOR ONE ITEM. APRIL 23, 2020 THIRD, WAS MESSAGE WAS LEFT AT THE NUMBER PROVIDED TO OUR DEPARTMENT AT THE HEARING ASKING IF THE LAST ITEM WAS CORRECTED. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE AND FINES BEGAN MAY 1, 2024. THE PROPERTY MANAGER CALL THE OFFICE ON MAY 4, 2024 SATURDAY AND LEFT A MESSAGE. MAY 6, 2024, WHEN INSPECTION WAS SCHEDULED AND THE CASE WAS COMPLIANT ON MAY 7, 2024. THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE VIOLATOR WAS FOUND IN VIOLATION BY EITHER THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD SPECIAL MAGISTRATE OR OTHER QUASIJUDICIAL OR JUDICIAL PROCESS OR OTHERWISE ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS WAS THREE PREVIOUS TIMES. >> STAFF CALCULATED THE MINISTRY OF COST IN THIS CASE. TO BE $805.25. SINCE THEY DEMONSTRATE OF COST EXCEEDS THE COST OF THE FIND THAT ACCRUED, STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS TO DENY THE FINAL REDUCTION REQUEST. THE REQUEST OF THE FINE IN THE AMOUNT OF $630 BE PAID. >> DOES IT INCLUDE THE $30? >> YES MA'AM, THANK YOU. >> WOULD YOU LIKE TO ADD ANYTHING? >> CORRECTED WHATEVER THAT WAS WRONG IN THREE DAYS.

IT PRODUCES A VOICEMAIL MESSAGE AND AN EMAIL. THE FIRST CALL I GOT BACK WAS , MAY 4. THAT WAS A SATURDAY ASKING FOR THE REINSPECTION. I RECEIVED ANOTHER CALL ON MAY 6. THAT IS WHEN I CALLED BACK AND ARRANGED THE REINSPECTION. IT WAS DONE ON THE SIXTH AND IT WAS COMPLIED. IT WAS COMPLIED ON THE SEVENTH. >> THINKING. >> I FIND THE $630 FINE IT'S APPROPRIATE. AND THAT IS WHAT WILL BE ASSESSED. >> CAN I ASK YOU TO MAKE [00:40:01] FINDINGS ON THIS CRITERIA? >> IT WAS A FINAL REDUCTION. >> IT WAS STATED. THE INFRACTION WAS MINIMAL. IT WAS CORRECTED. AFTER. THERE HAD BEEN AND THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE VIOLATOR WAS PREVIOUSLY FOUND IN VIOLATION WAS THREE. SO, IN CONSIDERATION OF THOSE FACTORS. THE ADMINISTRATIVE COST EXCEEDED THE FINE. I FIND THAT THIS FINEST APPROPRIATE. >> SHE CANNOT HEAR ANY OF THAT, SORRY. >> I WAS TRYING TO GET YOUR ATTENTION. >> I'M SORRY. DO YOU WANT ME TO REPEAT THAT? OKAY. THERE ARE THREE CRITERIA. THIS IS BASED ON IT. THE GRAVITY OF THE VIOLATION WAS MINIMAL. AND THE ACTIONS TAKEN TO CORRECT THE VIOLATION WERE TAKEN. IT WAS A WEEK WHERE IT WAS STILL IN VIOLATION. THE NUMBER OF TIMES THERE HAD BEEN PREVIOUS VIOLATIONS WITH THREE. THE ADMINISTRATIVE COST TO THE CITY EXCEEDED $800. THE FINE IS 630. I FEEL THE 630 WAS FAIR. UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPEAL THAT. YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO DO SO IF YOU DECIDE YOU WANT TO APPEAL IT. >> SHE SAYS I HAVE A RIGHT TO APPEAL? >> SHE SAYS YOU ARE IN VIOLATION THREE TIMES.

EVEN AFTER HE CAME OUT AND THAT THE FIRST INSPECTION AND SAID ONE OTHER THING HAD TO BE REDONE. SHE GOT IT DONE THE SAME DAY. SHE THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS DONE. THE ONLY REASON WHY SHE DID NOT CONTACT MISS BECK UNTIL MAY, OF WHATEVER IT WAS, WE GOT A LETTER OR SOMETHING? THAT IS WHAT MADE HER CALL HIM. OTHERWISE, I'M REALLY EXPEDIENT AND I'M THE ONE THAT HANDLES EVERYTHING. I'M HERE. IF I KNEW THERE WAS AN ISSUE, OF COURSE I WOULD'VE BEEN HERE PRIOR TO THE DATE. WE GOT IT FIXED A COUPLE OF DAYS OF THE COURT. I WAS HERE LAST TIME. IT IS WHY I APPLIED FOR THE REDUCTION. THE STUFF WAS LITERALLY DONE. THEY ARE PAYING FOR NOTHING. IT'S BEEN DONE. FOR A WHILE. >> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, THE CASE CAME TO THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE FEBRUARY 9, 2024. STAFF PERFORM THE REINSPECTION OF FEBRUARY 16.
