We can move into our introduction of building violation cases, starting with item number two.
Okay. Okay.
Investigator James LaPonza, case number 32443, respondent Lyndon P. Duvall and Rebecca A. Duvall, respondent address 1017 Southeast Holbrook Court. All right.
Is there anybody here on behalf of the respondent for this case? Okay. All right. Whenever you're ready, you can.
Good morning. My name is James LaPonza. I've been sworn in. This case concerns the property at 1017 Southeast Holbrook Court, B2, Port St. Lucie, Florida. On May 7th, 2026, an inspection was performed and photos taken showing the following violation. Commercial alteration with electric, plumbing, and air, no permit. Violation of Florida Building Code 150.105.1 and City Code of Ordinance 105.1. Notice of hearing was sent on July 17, 2026. On July 27, 2026, proper service was achieved by certified mail, return receipt received. I request the respondent, Lyndon P. Duvall and Rebecca A. Duvall, TRV. be ordered to comply with cited provisions of the City of Port St. Lucie Code by September 16th, 2026, and if not in compliance by that date, they'd be required to pay a fine in the amount of $100 for every day the violation continues thereafter not to exceed $10,000. The City has incurred costs in the amount of $510 in conducting the investigation, which summons to be in addition to the daily fine and included in a lien unless compliance is achieved by the compliance date. This was discovered through a business tax inspection. It has added office space, air conditioning, electric, and plumbing. This is all added space.
Okay. Anything else you need to put into the record at the moment? Not at the moment. All right. Good morning, sir. Let me get you sworn in, and then I'll be happy to hear from you.
Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or affirm the testimony offered today is the truth and nothing but the truth?
I do.
And please state your name for the record.
Daniel Robinson. Thank you. Hello, sir. What are we doing? So working for Red Tail Design Group, we were hired to create the plans that are needed to get the proper permits for the work. This is going to, it's not an easy task. it's been a while figuring out exactly how to do this process currently we're working in with two different addresses same type of issues work done in these warehouses without permits okay as you know you've seen me a few times working for planning and zoning um i know i was very confused yeah i'm on the other side So I'm very aware of the situation, and I know you're aware of the situation in a lot of these warehouses and what happens. So knowing that, we looked at the situation and the options that we would have, and we were getting quotes to like 90,000 and up. trying to get these small little warehouse spaces, um, either torn out and started over or up to code. Um, w w we worked through a process, um, took a little time of figuring out how exactly to do it. We, um, starting with floor plans and then we're going to come in and get the, um, plumbing electric and HVAC all done properly on plans so that we can submit to the building to prop, uh, building department. with everything that actually meets code, and not just saying, this is what's there. Tell me what works or doesn't work, because that's a waste of a lot of people's time. So it is time consuming. It took us three months to get the first floor plan done on one of the bays. And we still need to do the electric plumbing and HVAC. And then from there, we'll be getting ready to submit for permits. This isn't going to be a three-month turnaround. We can keep you up to date to show that we're definitely moving forward because that's our goal is to get this done. But it is a little hard to get done fast because this is work that is done through walls that are closed in. So you can't just necessarily walk up and take measurements. You're scanning into the walls. You're separately running to make sure that you know exactly where everything is. And then you've got inspectors coming in to make sure that that is all done properly. So we're just asking for more time. I don't know that 90 days is going to be enough. I highly doubt that 90 days is going to be enough. I know that's the norm. But if it's a stipulation of showing progress every month or every two months, We'd like to definitely work forward and take care of these issues. It's just been time-consuming.
Okay. Mr. LaPonza, what needs to be done to get this out of code enforcement?
Well, we need the engineer drawings and sign off on all the inspections. We can go out 90 days and revisit it then, but we typically wouldn't go past that 90 days mark.
So I'm based on what I've heard 90 days seems like a reasonable time and to at least I guess we would continue today's hearing and not enter any order today is that well today is just the violation hearing really so just to determine that there is indeed a violation correct yeah I mean I clearly there's a violation and I know he doesn't want what I'm hearing is 90 days probably not going to be enough time to get to get to compliance.
I mean, I'm going to give you looking more, you know, closer to the end of the year to get it really submitted to the building department with reasonable plans. But we are going to be trying to do this as fast as possible.
I kind of like the idea of maybe doing this in 90 and setting 90 days coming back with the understanding that it very well may not be done and that you may be seeking more time at that point, but that and showing you the progress, let the city do it. Yeah, that'll let the city keep its thumb on it and see what's going on. Uh, so I that that makes sense to me.
Yeah, we had, uh, council out there and the city, uh, manager out there show them what's going on so that we're all on the same page. Um, they see the work that we're we're getting done and, um, We're keeping them up to date on our process, too. We're just working through the process to make sure it's not costing more than a reasonable amount to where you're not spending over almost $100,000 a bay in these warehouses to bring them into compliance.
So the... 90 days puts us in the middle of November, but the hearing schedule starts getting a little off because of the holidays and stuff at that point.
Right. It would be November 18th would be our hearing.
It would be November 18th? Yes. Okay. Okay. I just don't have that on my calendar. And I know that the city's hired another magistrate who might be taking the building cases back away from, from my pinch hitting. Um, so it may not be me. Um, but we'll, why don't we, uh, I, I will do this. I will make finding a proper notice. Uh, there is a violation, but we'll set this for November 18th for, I don't know what you want to call it. Uh, it's not my intention to certify a fine on November 18th. If, if, um, It's not in compliance, but there has been good faith forward progress. It would be my intention to continue to work with the respondents. Again, assuming we see good faith forward progress, that would be my intent. That's how we would know, right? Yeah. Okay, so I don't know what you want to call that hearing on November 18th.
compliance hearing.
Okay, that's fine. Like I say, I would not be intending to certify a fine unless everybody left here today and nobody did anything and we were in the exact same spot that we are. But I would be shocked based on what I've seen and heard this morning. Okay. Then that will be the order for today. We'll... We'll make a finding of violation, but we'll set this for a compliance hearing on November 18th, and hopefully you'll be pretty far along by then. I sure hope so.
We'll have a very good understanding of the time it's going to take for these moving forward, too.
And you know the drill. Stay in touch with Mr. LaPonza.
Yeah, we'll keep everybody up to date constantly. That's the most important thing, really. OK. Nice seeing you again. Same. Even if it's on the respondent side of the equation.
All right, we'll enter that order. Thank you very much.
That concluded our building violations. We'll move on to certification of fine cases that are present. We'll begin with item number four, investigator Darren Subrayan, case number 32318, respondent Geiger Properties of Florida LLC, respondent address 1062 Southeast Port St. Lucie Boulevard.
Okay. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.
All right. Good morning, sir. Good morning. All right. This case concerns a property at 1062 Southeast Port St. Lucie Boulevard, Port St. Lucie, Florida. On November 14th, 2025, an inspection was done and photos taken showing the following violations. City ordinance 150.105.1, Florida building code 105.1, commercial alterations with electric and no permit. On February 11th, 2026, proper service was achieved by posted property with notice of hearing. A violation hearing was held on March 25th, 2026. Based on the evidence provided, the special magistrate found a violation exists and ordered compliance be achieved by April 22nd, 2026. A review of the building department records indicate that the compliance has not been obtained. The city requests that Geiger Properties, Florida LLC, be ordered and required to pay a fine of $100 for every day the violation continues thereafter not exceed $10,000. The city has a code cost of $510 in conducting the investigation. which sums to be in addition to the daily fine and included in the lien. This case came before you last month. The photograph looks familiar. Yeah. It was a shop. It just basically had alterations in it. It had a wall installed and some electric. Yeah. There's a couple of bits in there. And it was noticed when I was doing the business tax inspection. You can see there's a doorway added. and the electric. I've been in contact with the property manager, Ashley. They've made progress. At the moment, it's in P&C, planning and zoning. So they're making their progress. Until it comes out of P&C, there's very little we can do. But they're making strides to correct it, to get the permit in order. So at this point.
OK. Let me go ahead and get you sworn in, ma'am, and then We'll see what's going on.
Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or from the testimony you offer today is the truth and nothing but the truth? I do. And please state your name for the record. Ashley Ledlow. Thank you.
Good morning. Nice to see you again. So what's going on?
We submitted for permit and we're just waiting for the permit to be approved. So as of this morning, they did a check and it's still sitting in planning and zoning under review.
Okay. So we're Last time we were here, the permit hadn't been submitted yet.
Correct. And it was submitted immediately after, within, I think, a few days. We went ahead and gathered documents, submitted, and it's been there ever since.
Okay. Once it goes into planning, we have no control over what they do. Understood. Yeah. So do you want to put this on a future agenda? Yeah. I don't mind giving it another 30 days and then revisit it again. It would probably be a wise thing to do at this point.
That'd be September 16th. What's that going to be, September? Or 15th. 16th? Is that the right date?
Correct. Yeah, September 16th would be 30 days.
Okay.
I have no... problem doing that this is moving forward uh yeah i'll buy it slower probably than everybody wants but uh i mean they've been keeping me informed which is fine so we know where we're at with yeah no i i didn't mean to imply anyone dragging their feet it's just the process takes time sometimes do you know um miss ludlow the uh when you checked with pnz have they reviewed anything yet it's still in review in review so no comments have been left at this time all right so we'll try again on september 16th i guess and uh hope for the best hopefully we'll get through the process by then i hope so me too all right then uh uh let's see just uh for housekeeping i do find proper notice uh we're we're still uh in this same position where we're just continuing To September 16th, I guess, and no actual order will be entered today other than to roll this to September 16th. All right, we'll see you then. Sounds good, thank you. Thank you.
Next, we'll have item number five, Investigator James LaPonza, case number 32403, Respondent Gary Telemach and Marie Raina Moisey-Telemach. Respondent address, 181 Southeast Lakehurst Drive. Thank you. Amen.
This case concerns the property at 181 Southeast Lakehurst Drive, Port St. Lucie, Florida. On March 13, 2026, an inspection was done and photos taken showing the following violation. City Ordinance 150.105.1 and Florida Building Code 105.1, garage conversion with electric in air, no permit. On June 20, 2026, proper service was achieved by certified mail return receipt received. A violation hearing was held on July 15th, 2026. Based on the evidence provided, the special magistrate found that the violation exists and ordered compliance be achieved by August 19th, 2026. A review of the building department records indicate compliance has not been obtained. I request the respondent Gary Telemach and Marie Raina Moyes-Telemach be ordered to and required to pay a fine in the amount of $50 for every day the violation continues thereafter not to exceed $10,000. The city has incurred costs in the amount of $510 in conducting the investigation, which some is to be in addition to the daily fine and included in the lien. This was discovered by one of our building inspectors and felt that it was a life safety issue because the garage had been Garage had been converted into a theater, a movie theater, and it's in a group home. Um, I don't think the group home is currently operating. Um, but they felt he felt the need to get it permitted because it seemed like a life safety issue. They have SUBMITTED TO PLAN REVIEW AND I THINK IT'S FAILED PLAN REVIEW THREE TIMES WITH THE SAME NOTES EACH TIME. SO THEY KEEP SUBMITTING THE SAME PAPERWORK OVER AGAIN BUT NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUES THAT THE PLAN REVIEWERS ARE LOOKING FOR.
DID ALL THAT HAPPEN BETWEEN THE JULY 15 FILE? YES. THE THREE PLAN REVIEWS, I MEAN? HAS THAT ALL BEEN WITHIN THE LAST 30 DAYS? YES. NONE OF THAT HAD HAPPENED BEFORE THE VIOLATION HERE? CORRECT. All right. Let me get you sworn in, ma'am, and then I would love to hear from you.
Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or affirm the testimony you offered today is the truth and nothing but the truth? Yes. And please state your name for the record.
Mary Rayna Moyes-Talema. Thank you.
Yes, ma'am. What are we doing here?
Okay, so we are opening a group home. We are licensed by August 5th. We convert the garage to a movie theater for the clients. However, we didn't create new things in the garage. The door is still the same door of the garage. The ceiling is still the same ceiling. And the AC is a portable AC, so we did cement the The engineer sent it to us, and we sent it to the city three times, and every time it comes back with more items in it. And on the 14th, I was here, and I paid $50, and I gave them the plan again. Mr. David is the engineer that's doing the adding. the garage into a plan and on Monday we receive an email say that they add more item to it saying that we're not in compliance, it's not acceptable and we will need to pay another $50 to review if we're going to submit the plan again.
Okay.
I do have the plan review notes. So the latest set of plans.
Yeah, I was going to ask if we knew what that was. And I also wanted if you have any more detail on the concern, the life safety concern. Yeah, I think you testified that the inspector thought there was a health or life safety concern. Right.
Because now it's being used as living space in the garage and the garage door is blocked off. that would be the garage door wall it is it's still there the garage door is still there it's a sheet track it's just on the outside you can see it yeah but correct not on the inside correct got it okay so let's let's see and there's been air conditioning air conditioning ducts that have been added lighting in the ceiling yeah okay so on all right it's near the seating areas there's also outlets that that have been installed um so the plan review notes The first one, I'm not going to read the whole note. No, that's fine. Okay. There's two more before this one. This one was just on 817, as previously noted, provide such and such. Okay. Number two, as previously noted, if using a mini-split, which she's calling it a portable unit. It is one. It's an AC mini-split.
No, I know what a mini-split is. That's not a portable unit.
A mini-split is a permanent fixture. Okay, number three, as previously noted. Number four, as previously noted. Number five, the manual J is incomplete, missing the model. Make model and serial number. That was also on the last plan review from 727. And then you only receive one page of the plans. They're not clear or legible. It seems to me as though the same things keep getting submitted without the corrections that are being asked for. If you'd like to see and take a look at this, that would be fine.
How is this area being
utilized right now like are they or is it being used at all is it as of right now no okay and if you go to the window like where we put the ac it's a plug it's right there up up right there it's a it's a window i'm talking about the air conditioning yes yeah that's a mini split
So there's that part, and then there's probably a compressor outside with a fan, and they're connected through the wall. I know what a mini-split is.
We didn't cut it. We didn't cut this area of the property. It was a window. The window is still there.
The window is covered?
A shed window. A shed window.
What work have you done in terms of trying to answer the comments that you've gotten back from the city on your permit application?
We keep sending it to Mr. David, the engineer guy that's doing the plan for us. Because from our understanding, that's the only thing we need. And then he said he's going to fix it, fix it, and he sent it back. Every time we send it, they say it's not correct, and they add more and more to it.
Okay. Okay.
And then there's a mobility fee added.
I think I'm still here in September for building, I think. Do you know? Do we know when the new magistrate is starting? Here's what I want to do, but I want to be very clear. I want to put this on the September 16th agenda. But in the meantime, nobody is to use this room or occupy it. And when we're back on the 16th, if there's not a permit that's been issued and all these comments cleared, I will certify the fine. So I'm willing to give you one more continuance with the understanding, again, that this does not get used by anybody. Nobody goes in there except the workers. to do whatever needs to be done to answer the comments. And then on September 16th, if we're not under permit, the fine will be certified. I want you to understand that. Does that work for you? Yes, sir.
Does it work for the city? The city feels that's reasonable.
And my intent there is to not only... give you one more shot but it is to keep people out of this room I mean that that if somehow it's determined that that that's not honored and that people are using or going in because I see like clothing and suitcases that's when we were moving out okay so um with APD which is department with personal disability um if for us to be in compliance with him we had to move out our own house
This is our house. And then we purchased a second home. And from there, we were moving out. So we were putting everything in the garage and then get everything needed because we had to do fire and sprinkler.
So whatever it takes, I don't want anybody using that room for anything.
Yes, sir.
So I don't know if there's any residents there at this point. But when I was there the last time, there were no residents.
There's still nobody living there. Well, so that would be my condition on not certifying the fine today. Okay? Yes, sir. Then that's what we will do. Anybody else need anything else in the record before?
Just in case you're wondering, I think our new magistrate is starting in October. So October 28th would be his day.
Yeah, so I think I'll be here in September, which is what I wanted. I wanted to be able to handle this one myself. Okay. Thank you. So anything else into the record on this one?
No, sir. No.
All right. Then I do find proper notice. For today's hearing, which we're going to continue to September 16th, is that the right day? I keep closing my calendar. September 16th, yes. And what we're expecting to see on September 16th is the permit, all the comments being answered, the permit being issued. In the meantime, nobody using the room. If those conditions, if that's not what we find, it would be my intent to certify the fine on September 16th. Thank you, sir. All right. Thank you, ma'am.
Next up we'll have item number 10. Investigator James LaPonza case number 32245 respondent Cameo Corner LLC respondent address 481 Southwest Port Saint Lucie Blvd.
I was really hoping you weren't like that bored with life that you're like sitting here and For entertainment purposes.
No, I just had to be back.
Okay, this case concerns the property of 41 Southwest Port St. Lucie Boulevard, Port St. Lucie, Florida. On August 14th, 2025, an inspection was done and photos taken showing the following violation. City Ordinance 150.105.1 and Florida Building Code 105.1, commercial alteration, no permit. On October 28th, 2025, proper service was achieved by certified mail return receipt received. A violation hearing was held on November 19th, 2025. Based on the evidence provided, the special magistrate found that the violation exists and ordered compliance be achieved by December 17th, 2025. A review of the billing department records indicate compliance has not been obtained. I'm going to skip over the recommendation at this point and let the respondent speak.
Okay. Very good. You're still sworn in, so just go ahead and put your name and address into the record again, and you can proceed then.
Ashley Ledlow, 481 Port Sunset Boulevard. So we, this project had a couple of different parts. First was updating the addresses, which is done and completed. Now we had to submit to planning and zoning prior to submitting for permit. We just got approval for that two days ago. Permit has been submitted. I have a permit number and it is sitting in intake.
Okay.
So waiting on y'all.
So forward progress since?
Yes.
But we haven't landed yet. Haven't landed yet. They're getting close. One more. One more. Was the last one September 16th?
Yes, the last one was September 16th.
Why don't we put this with that and keep them traveling together and then you only have one hearing with both cases.
I'm fine. Yeah, I'm fine with that. If we have to come back.
Maybe it'll get resolved before and you don't have to come back. I don't know. But if...
I think they're approaching the finish line.
Sounds like it, yeah. All right, well, then we'll continue this to September 16th if need be. Maybe it'll get done before then, and at least this one will be off the docket.
Crossing my fingers.
Okay, so ordered. Thank you. Thank you.
Next, we'll have item number 11, Investigator Jennifer Venator, case number 32426, Respondent Maciana Florestal and Renaud Titus. Respondent address, 4189 Southwest Darien Street.
Good morning.
Good morning. This case concerns the property at 4189 Southwest Darien Street, Port St. Lucie, Florida. On April 16th, 2026, an inspection was done and photos taken showing the following violation. City Ordinance 150.105.1. and Florida Building Code 105.1. Enclosed porch with electric, no permit. On June 22, 2026, proper service was achieved by certified mail return receipt received. A violation hearing was held on July 15, 2026. Based on the evidence provided, Special Magistrate found the violation exists and ordered compliance be achieved by August 19, 2026. A review of the building department records indicates that compliance has not been obtained. Regarding this one, they have applied for a permit. It was submitted on July 15th. It did fail, I believe, planning and zoning, and there were some items that needed to be addressed for them to sign off on it. I did check it, and it looks like they just submitted some new documentation to be reviewed by the zoning department as of the 17th, so just two days ago. And it's yet to be reviewed, so it's just kind of linear. Sure.
As the enclosed porch, we're talking about the...
It's this back portion here.
Yep, that's what I was looking at.
With the flat roof.
Yeah. Okay. All right. Let me get you sworn in.
Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or affirm the testimony you offer today is the truth and nothing but the truth? Yes. And please state your name for the record. Renon Titus. Thank you.
Thank you, Ms. Titus. If you have any questions, you may ask. Otherwise, the floor is yours. Tell me about where we are.
So we add an extension to the master bedroom. We're working on fixing everything. So the first time we submit the permit, they sent another stuff to do, like different things to fix. So we resubmitted again, like she was saying. So we just did it like a few days ago. So we just waiting on them.
Okay.
And then we recently got like a new survey. We got our survey update for the home because it says that we needed to have the survey update also.
Does it make sense to put this on September 16th given the...
I think so, because I know that it looks like that they addressed what was the concerns, the survey, and I think there were some other items that Zoni was asking about for within the plans to correct. I think that those have been done. I did see that the updated plans were also included, and it looks like it possibly addressed all the other comments from them, but I won't know that for sure until they get a chance to review it.
No, I understand, but there definitely is good faith effort here at Sun Forward Progress.
Yeah, and it's been good communication. I mean, I've spoken with the property owner, and I know that the gentleman who is working on her plans has also contacted me, and he's contacted office staff through this process. Okay. In reality, in order to update plans and stuff like that, there's not been that much time lapse. It seems like he's on top of it, trying to address those comments and get it corrected.
Okay. So why don't we push this to September 16th? Sounds like you've been responding and submitting, and maybe by then it'll be all taken care of. Does that make sense to you? Yes. Ms. Tite is okay, and the city is good with that. Okay, September 16th it is. If need be, we'll see you back on that date. All right, good luck.
Thank you.
That concludes our introduction of PRESENT CASES.
OKAY. SO LET'S SEE. I GUESS IF YOU WANT TO PUT INTO THE RECORD HOW THE CITY ACHIEVED NOTICE FOR EVERYONE WHO DIDN'T JOIN US THIS MORNING, WE'LL DO THAT.
A notice of hearing or notice of the certification of fine was sent to the violator by certified mail return receipt requested to the address listed in the tax collector's office for tax notices or to the address listed in the county property appraiser's database. If the green card was returned, it was placed in the file and is either signed, unsigned, or unclaimed. Ten days before the hearing, the agenda was posted on the bulletin board in the lobby of Port St. Lucie City Hall. Also, a notice of hearing was posted on the property in question along with an affidavit of posting, which included a copy of the notice posted and the date and places of its posting. If the certification card was not returned to the building department, then within ten days before the hearing, posting is completed in the same manner as if the card was returned unclaimed as stated above. The photos shown at today's hearing are kept and maintained as public record of the City of Port St. Lucie's building department.
All right. With that process being applied to the remaining cases, I will find proper notice for the remaining cases on the agenda. Do you need to read those into the record at this time?
Yes, I will. Beginning with our building violations. Regarding the following cases entered into public record, our building compliance coordinators inspected the properties and found violations to exist. A reasonable date for compliance was subsequently given, but upon reinspection, it was confirmed that compliance was not achieved. A formal notice of hearing was issued for today's hearing and the respondent has failed to appear. The city requests that these cases be found in violation of their respective listed code sections and be given until our next hearing date of September 16th to bring the property into compliance. Should compliance not be met, the city requests that a future hearing be scheduled to determine and impose an appropriate fine. Oh, we don't have any violations.
That sounds great, but I think we don't have any more of those.
For certification of fine cases.

Thank you. I will sign the appropriate orders for those matters. We're at the end of the agenda. Is there any public to be heard? Seeing none, because nobody's here. Is there anything else we need to address for the good of the order before we adjourn to this morning's hearing? Then seeing nothing, it is 9.49. We have completed our business, and this hearing is adjourned.
Thank you. you
