Casey Simmons
612 S. Hillcrest Avenue
Public Health, Safety or Welfare Nuisance—Anderson
Inspector Matthew Anderson provided a PowerPoint presentation. A notice of violation
was issued on January 30, 2013, following the first inspection. The violation at 612 S. Hillcrest

showed the tall tree with a large basal cavity and a second large cavity at the large branch
Code Enforcement 2013-06-26 1
union. The decay will increase with time; failure of the tree would be catastrophic. A neighbor
submitted a complaint regarding the tree's condition.
Property owner Casey Simmons admitted to the violation.
Member Riordon moved to find the Respondent in violation of the City of Clearwater
Code as referred to in the affidavit in this case. The motion was duly seconded and carried
unanimously.
Inspector Anderson recommended compliance by July 12, 2013 or a fine of$200 per
day be imposed. He recommended a short compliance time frame due to the dangerous
condition of the tree and the potential for tropical storms.
Mr. Simmons said he was aware of the tree's condition but could not afford the $4,000
cost he was quoted for its removal.
Discussion ensued with comments that costs would be significantly higher if the tree fails
and concerns that injuries could occur and nearby residents need to be protected. It was felt
the property owner should be granted additional time.
Assistant City Attorney Camilo Soto submitted composite exhibits.
Member Riordon moved to enter an order requiring the Respondent to correct the
violation on or before July 19, 2013. If the Respondent does not comply within the time
specified, the Board may order a fine of$200 per day for each day the violation continues to
