5. Other Board Action
5.1 Consider request by petitioner(s) Ryan Gallagher for a partial release of lien as
recorded in OR Book 22164, Page 2617 and OR Book 22853, Page 646 regarding
1234 Eldridge St.
Assistant City Attorney Jerrod Simpson said this request is to partially
release a lien the City has recorded from a property in Largo owned by
the same entity. Partially releasing the lien allows the requestor to sell
the property in Largo without the Clearwater lien clouding the title. The
City's lien is still in place and enforceable and the liens only get released
from the Largo property.
Ryan Gallahger, owner of the effected Largo property, said he purchased
the property knowing there were code liens accruing from the City of Largo.
He fixed the violations and Largo satisfied their lien. He was unaware of the
cross-attaching lien as his title company did not see it when he purchased
the property. He only became aware when the title company for the sale
found the lien. He has a family ready to close on the property and move in.
He said he is willing to purchase the Clearwater property to fix it up but the
current property owner is not interested in selling.
The Secretary to the Board said the agenda item only lists two of the
three liens, in error. The third recorded lien is recorded in Pinellas
County Clerk of Court OR BK 22136 PG 204.
Member Kenne moved to grant a partial release of lien from 207 Melody
Lane, Largo, FL as it relates to 1234 Eldridge St., Clearwater. The
motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.

written order. If the Respondent does not comply within the time
specified, the City may take all reasonable actions, including entry
onto the property, to abate and maintain the nuisance, and charge the

property. After 3 months from the recordation date of such lien, if the
costs remain unpaid, the City Attorney's office is authorized to
foreclose, collect, or settle such lien using any legal or equitable
remedies available under the law. The motion was duly seconded and
carried unanimously.
