This property was cited previously and, on December 8, 1999, the,MCEB
IMu'nicipal Code E~forcement Board) had found the property to be In violation.
Previously a request for reconsideration of this case was approved by the board;
however, the case was later withdrawn by staff due'to concern proper service had
not been obtained. "he process is starting anew. The Property Appraiser still lists
Arian Tenney as property owner even though she is deceased. During the course of
both actions, property resident Forrest Tenney had promised to correct the,
violations. Mr. Rosa said the last notice of violation required compliance by
February 10, 2000. This morning, several violations remained. At Mr, Tenney's
request, staff returned to the property after lunch and found it to be in compliance.
"
"
Mr. Rosa identified City Exhibit photographs he had taken of the property on
February 3, 2000. The photographs are an accurate representation of current
conditions. The property has a long history of citations. He recommended the
property be found to be in'repeat violation with no accompanying fine. Should
,problems reoccur. this action would allow a fine to be imposed without a
subsequent' hearing.
Ms. Dougall-Sides submitted City Exhibits 1 ~ 6 and displayed photographs
taken this morning.

Mr. Dalip, signed a permit application, stating he, lived on ,the property and' would do
the' work himself. Staff subsequently learned he does not occupy the property.
The City froze the' permit on June 1, 1999.
Mr. Scott said Mr. Oalip was informed the Code requires he hire a licensed'
contractor to obtain a permit and certify the co'nstruction meets Code. He
reviewed difficulties in communication with the owner, noting the addition had been
credited wit~ 22 failed inspections.
Mr. Scott identified City Exhibit 6 as photographs Ms. Chianel.la had taken of
the construction on February 27, 1999 and December 27, 1999. He stated the
photographs are an accurate representation of conditions. He said the project has
been'time consuming for City inspectors. He recommended 1 5 days to hire a
, contractor and comply or a $150 per day fine be imposed.
Ms. Dougall~Sides submitted City Exhibits 1 -7 and displayed photographs of
the site.

Mr. Dalip testified he had allowed tenants to move into the house temporarily
after he had injured his back. In response to a question, Mr. Scott said the City had
not fined Mr. Dalip for 9 of the failed inspections. Notes on one framing inspection
indicated that violations were too numerous to document.

In reference to the Km art store at 21 30 Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard, Kmart
representative Mike Gaines requested the board waive the $46,500 fine that had
accrued while the store's landscaping violated Code. Site landscaping now exceeds
the level required under the City's original landscape plan. Kmart employee Joe
Burnett reviewed circumstances responsible for the protracted project. Once he
took control, he hired a contractor and work began. Further delays related to '
inclement weather. The project was completed ,on October 14, 1999.

The City had fined Kmart $250/day until the site complied with Code. Mr.
Burnett reviewed corporate changes designed to avoid similar problems. Mr. Gaines
stated the City had presented an award for the landscape project, which cost Kmart
almost $250,000 and eliminated 44 parking spaces. Landscaping plans are in place
for the Countryside Kmart.

Inspector Scott Kurleman agreed the project represents a great improvement
but felt the 18-month delay was excessive. While the landscaping exceeds
conditions of the original landscape plan, it does not quite meet new Code'
, '
landscaping requirements. It was noted the only contact the board had with Kmart
was through the company's authorized landscape architect who testified the project
could not be completed in a timely manner due to his workload. Discussion ensued
regarding the fine and Kmart's long term disregard of City efforts. Mr. Kurleman
said Kmart had made no cOn:'lpliance effort between April 1998 and June 1999,
when Mr. Burnett had become involved.
'"

" ~.
Mr. Gaines stated fines should not be punitive but should encourage
compliance. 'In response to a question, Assistant City Clerk Sue Diana, excluding
staff time, estimated administrative costs at $800. Mr. Kurleman stated'the
Planning Director had recommended the fine be reduced to, $5,000. Discussion
ensued regarding the size of the reduction with suggestions ranging, from 75% to
85%.
Member Cole moved that concerning Case 06-99, the Municipal Code
Enforcement Board has considered the Respondent's request for reconsideration of
fine at a hearing held on March 22,' 2000, and based upon the testimony reduced
the fine from $46,500.000 to 6,975.00 to be paid within thirty days of the date of
this hearing. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.

Attorney for the Board Karen Clark referred to a previous board member
comment regarding the board's ability to discuss issues before a motion is made.
She suggested after the public hearing is closed, the board could pass a motion for
consideration before discussing relevant issues and determining the board's
conclusion of law.
Consensus was to adopt a procedural rule, that board members shall pass a
motion for consideration before board discussion begins.
