Code Enforcement Hearing - public_hearing

Alright. I think we're I think everyone has signed in. So we'll call the meeting of code enforcement. It is 12/11/1925. It is 09:02AM. If everyone could please stand and join me for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to The United States Of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. All may be seated. I do not see that we have any public comment cards filled out. Are there any corrections to the minutes of the meeting of 10/23/2025?

Hearing no corrections, those minutes are approved. Okay. So the way this will work, we have one trespass appeal. We're we're gonna take that one first and get it out of the way. So I'm not gonna really talk much about the the people who are involved in that know what that process is pretty much. So I'm not gonna go into that. Everyone else is here is here for code enforcement. So, the way it will work is the, the code enforcement officer will stand at this podium over here. When your case is called, you'll come stand at this podium over on this side of the room. The the city puts on their case first.

At the end of their case, you are permitted this is a quasi judicial proceeding, so you're permitted to ask questions of the code enforcement officer. You're not required to. You can just go ahead and say why you do not think that, you're in violation. Or if it's anything other than a tree case where there is a time to cure before the fines kick in, you can say, well, I know I'm in violation. However, I'm gonna need this much time and this is why, you know, before the fines would apply.

So that is oh, and then usually I go back to I give each side one last time. I give the property owner the last word, and then I close the hearing. And with very, very rare occasion, I just make my ruling at that point in time, and the hearing is closed and we move on to the next hearing. At this point in time, anyone who is going to speak, that even includes attorneys under the rules of the city of New York court, I'm the clerk's gonna ask you to stand, and the clerk will administer the oath.

Can everyone wishing to provide testimony please stand and raise your right hand? Do you swear or affirm the testimony you are about to provide is true and accurate to the best of your knowledge so help you God?

I do.

Thank you.

Okay. And before I call the first case, there's there's usually one other thing I say and yeah, there's this adage that people's greatest fear is public speaking. So, you know, we're not gonna bite here, you know, just, you know, just take a deep breath, you know, it it'll be fine, you know. I again, I know some people just that's a huge fear of their to get up in the podium and speak, but don't worry about it. All right.

I'm gonna call this trespass appeal. It's case number 260010. The actual, I guess, police case number is 25068144. And it was a trespass warning that was given to given at the Morgan Family Community Center at 6207 West Price Boulevard.

Good morning, your honor. Reba Kull.

Hey. Well, let the city go first.

Oh, of course.

Let me see.

We go to the hearing. Go to the hearing one. Screw it. Screw Screw Screw I'm George White, code enforcement inspector for the city of Northport, and I have been sworn. Case number 2500665 was initially expected on 04/09/2025.

This case is addressing the violation of three zero four point one point one, IMPC, unsafe conditions. Number eight, roofing For the roof, soffit, and fascia in disrepair. The property has been inspected on multiple occasions, most recently on 12/09/2025. I have not had contact with the property owner prior to today. I have two photos to present as evidence. The photos are true and accurate depiction of the property located at 8690 Bumford Avenue.

Good.

Okay. I mean, can you just give me a description of what the roof I mean, I can see it's it's a flat roof. It's kinda hard to tell from the photos, but can you you give me a description of what the roof is like?

Yes. The roof was missing shingles. It was in a state of disrepair. A proportion of it was completely removed by a welder or I e someone. The facial bowl was in a state of disrepair, corroded, falling apart, as well as the soffit area.

Okay.

Alright. Now you may go.

Thank you, your honor. Good morning, gentlemen. I apologize for not speaking to you in advance of the hearing. I was unsure of the protocol. My name is Reed McCullough, and I have been sworn.

I'm here on behalf of the current and future property owners. My my office is primarily transactional. I received this property in the course of assisting in the sale of the property to a bonafide purchaser for value in an arm in an arm's length transaction. When researching the property, we discovered this that it has the dubious honor of being the highest violations in the city, I believe. And and and we set about establishing the the steps necessary to conduct a code a code lien reduction hearing, which at this point has been submitted for the city's consideration.

My my retainer the the gentleman who retained me, the buyer, has facilitated the probate of this estate. This this property was held by Dwellwell Inc, as the city correctly acknowledged. Dwellwell is an inactive Florida corporation, which was owned solely by a deceased lady. We assisted her her husband in probating her estate, quieting title. There were numerous deep defects in the official records and Also conducting repairs on the property.

My client has facilitated the submission of a permit for the roof repairs described and I believe work has been completed at this point with respect to additional code enforcement violations, namely debris cleanup and and patching, the missing shingles that that the honorable gentleman was describing. We expect that permit to be issued within the next several days. Once that permit is issued, I understand miss Ray is waiting to condense these liens into the administrative cost pursuant to the ordinance that was established in September. We'd ask that this matter be continued until the January hearing date so we could hopefully have this all wrapped up.

Okay. Are there any objections on the city's part to continue this till the next hearing date?

No. That'd be fine.

That'd be fine. Alright.

Thank you, your honor. Gentlemen. Alright.

So we will continue it to the January 22 hearing. Did you say there's other fines that are currently on the property?

I believe $822,000 at last estimate. Okay.

I'm just going to give you so I don't have jurisdiction once I issue the fine. So the city commission has jurisdiction over that. So that's where you'll head to go for a fine

reduction. Right?

Thank you.

Okay. Thank you. Next case okay. Was headed there. Next case is is CE case 2501634. The property owner is Darryl Spellman, and the property address is 2251 Trenton Dunn Street.

Your

honor.

Sure. Yeah. Yeah. You can. Yeah. Is there a chair there? If not Okay. Great. And this is a case that was continued.

I'm Anthony Brown, code enforcement inspector for the city of Northport, and I have been sworn. Case number 25Dash01634 was initially inspected on zip 7225. Cases addressing the violation of one zero five point one Florida building code permit needed. Property has been inspected on multiple occasion, mostly most recently on 11/04/2025. I'm not I have had property, contact with the property owner. I have two photos to present as evidence. The photos are true and inaccurate depiction of the property located at 2251 Cradenden Street.

And

can can someone refresh my memory about why we continued this case?

This is about the connex boxes?

The

Connex box in the back?

Yeah. But no. He was My read is why did we continue the case?

I believe the, Kevin Reduce, your honor, manager for the Code of Fortune Division, I believe that was at the request of the property owner.

Okay. Well, so why like, go ahead and state state your name for the record and that you've been sworn.

General Wayne Spellman. I am the owner of the property. There is a connex box on the property, And, I did ask for a continuance on it because I've been working with the building, the safety department. On pulling the permits for now, the windows, they told me if I do the window permit that, it makes a Conix box become a a material box for all the stuff that was damaged in my house from hurricane Ian.

Let me let me make sure

I understand that correctly. So there the box has to have a window installed in it?

No. No. No. No. The house has my house got damaged because my homeowner's insurance was canceled because the city of Northport failed to remove trees that were in my backyard on the other side of the fence on Sumner. Sumner is my backyard. I'm literally three houses over from here. And I showed I'm trying to Vicky. I think it was Vicky Shea or Vicky the public works lady. I can you refresh my name memory on her last name?

Vicky Shank? Shank. Vicky Shank, came out, inspected the property saying that she could not remove the trees prior to the hurricane, that if I wanted to, I could remove them at my own expense. I may or may not get paid for those trees. And I asked her if she could put that in writing. She could not.

Let's get back to the container. Are you saying that the city is not moving forward on some kind of a is the permit for

the container? Talk, When there is no permit on the container because I did not know the location

for the permit on the the container. Sorry.

I may, I may make an enlighten everybody. The building official is here. As a courtesy, the building official allowed mister Spelman to, keep the context box without permitting if he got a window permit, which he needs anyway to install windows. The reason we're here today is

Okay. That makes also, that makes sense. Right. Okay.

However, apparently, there's some problem today mister Spelman's having with his windows. Now I'm gonna be honest with you from a city standpoint. This case has gone on way too long. Mister Spelman may tell you too that he's having a problem. There may be a conflict if he gets the permit for the windows. If that's his testimony today, that's fine. However, he can still obtain a, the original permit for the CONEXPOXX, and that will close the case out. So one way or another, by January the next hearing is 01/22/2026. Correct?

Correct.

One way or another, the city is prepared to move forward with a violation for not for not having the permit for the CONEX box if either mister Spelling doesn't obtain the window permit or get the permit for the CONEX box. I just want that known upfront Well, this

is only about the box.

This Correct. But but the window, if he gets what he needs for the window permit is

the Yeah.

Building official has made a courtesy for him, an accommodation to supersede that in order for him to store the windows in that box. So he has an active building permit.

So you're not just It's not just the windows. It's all my personal possessions because my house

That's was fine. But for our purposes here for the city, that was the reasonable accommodation made for you obtaining the window permit. He would forgo the permit on the Konex box for now as long as you're in good standing with that permit. That

is So it's

a very easy fix.

That is Either

obtain the window permit by the next meeting or obtain the connex permit for the next meeting.

And there is a process for actually issuing a permit for the connex box?

Yes, sir. It has to be fastened down for hurricanes and has to be certain places on the property. He knows that

Which I've already moved. That complies now, correct?

I don't know. I I don't think you have a permit for it though. Right? Did you get the permit?

I have not gotten the permit. So as long as you get the permit.

So if that's the case, it's in the right spot. When you leave here, go back downstairs, settle up with them. If the permits good for that, you'll bill arrange an inspection for you. If it's not, you'll have to get whatever paperwork or documentation they need to get them to inspect it. And then you're good. You won't even have to come back to the next meeting. Okay. Our guys will go out and inspect it. They'll sign off on it. So either it's either way, it's fixable. But by the next meeting, the next hearing date in January, if it's not fixed, we're gonna move forward with the violation.

So so yeah. So essentially, you're you're asking for a continuance to

Correct.

But I just wanted on record what

you should do the next continuance and the reason why I'm asking for a continuance. I'm sorry. Refresh my your my memory with your name, sir.

Well, I mean, they're that are you are you okay with the continuance till the January 22?

I'm okay. I'm just applying for the

This is mister Greenbaum, the billing official for the city of Northport. Well,

think Yeah. Mean, I understand this connection now. Was very confusing at the beginning of how because I Again, I was like, what? A window has to be installed in the context box?

No. No. It's windows. Right. Right. I understand

now. I understand now.

And all the drywall in my house. Right. I wouldn't be in the position if the trees were removed because They said that trees now. And the city trees went through the back of my roof, put me in the position because my insurance was canceled. So this is all out of my pocket for all all improvements to this property because my homeowner's insurance was canceled because the city failed to remove the trees that posed a potential fire risk to my my house because they were dead.

Were Okay. Does anybody say anything else about the Kotnex box, you know, you know, we're going to continue this but before we close this, does anyone want to say anything?

No, your honor. We're good.

You're all good? Yes. You're good. Okay. We'll continue this case till the hearing of January twenty two twenty twenty six. But again, I think you heard the city that this is gonna be the last continuance. Yes, Alright. Okay. Next case is CaseCECase2502320. The property owner is Jason Gardner. The property address is 2764 Fairbrook Street.

Yeah. Okay. Gotcha.

Let me

know when to get the diagnosis for that. Yep. Okay.

Pictures.

Mhmm.

Gotcha. Okay. You're right. Good

morning. My name is Anthony Grayon, code enforcement inspector for the city of Northport, and I have been sworn. Case number 25Dash02320 was initially inspected on 08/06/2025. This case is addressing the violation of 42 dash 23 MPCC debris and IPMC twenty twenty one three zero two point seven accessory structure. Property has been inspected on multiple cages, most recently eleven five twenty five. I have not had contact with the property owner prior to today. I have two photos to present as evidence. The photos are a true and accurate depiction of the property located at 2764 Fairbrook Street.

Oh, that's what I said. I didn't see anybody. Okay. Alright. And then there's one more photo you said?

Yes.

Is that the same house?

Yes. Same house.

Oh, so that's on the side.

Okay. Yes.

It's on the side. Alright.

That's the shed in the back area.

Okay. Let me see the other photo because that's the one that probably shows the shed. Yeah. Okay. Alright. Anything else?

That's it.

Alright. State your name for the record and you've been sworn.

Yes. My name is Shelly Gardner and I have been sworn.

Alright. Do have any questions or do you just?

No. I've I've spoken with I'm sorry. Mister Bee Beeha. I don't know how to say your last name.

Vuillon.

Yes. On the phone and through emails. We are working with, I know a lot of people surprising to me aren't familiar, but with the Resilient Sarasota program. So they're currently deciding whether they're taking the whole house down or doing the repairs to the house. And you can't tell from this picture, but the back, the pool cage is attached to the shed and attached to, an awning that's behind that.

So it's all connected. And they're gonna be dealing with this with actual contractors who can do the the structure and, I mean, it's not like something that I can go pull down. And so they're doing all this. Resilient Sarasota is going to fix the whole, you know, all of it.

What is the timeline for doing that?

They currently are deciding which way they're going to go, either do the repairs or if like it's right on the line of just taking the whole house down.

Do you know when they're gonna make that decision?

They told me before the end of the year they'll make that decision and then they'll be they'll get started in January either way. So I don't know if you wanna if we can continue it till the next meeting and, like, we'll I mean, I have more answers by then. I do have a statement.

But so once you've consulted, let me know what your thoughts are.

I mean, it's

been As far as continuance.

I mean, we did clean up the debris. We had the church there.

But how long are you looking

So what she's saying is by the end of this month Correct. That Resilient Sarasota is going to tell her we're either going to level the house or we're going to repair the house. So, but I mean, either one, she might not have a permit by January. But what she's saying is I can at least come back and I can give you a status report and tell you which way it's headed. And I would think you would at least be able to start the permitting process by that time. It may not

be finished. Yes.

So that's a is that a fair characterization of what you're asking? Absolutely.

So say by the next hearing of January 2022, you should have some kind of indication on whether they will Absolutely.

Right. And at least start starting the permit process. Again, probably not finished. Understandable. Right. But at least starting it. Okay. Well, if there's no objection on either side, we'll continue this case to the 01/22/2026 hearing. If for some reason, it goes blindingly fast and they make a determination and they actually have a permit in hand to either demolish or to do the repair. I think on this one, just a permit to do it is not going to bring it into compliance. It's going to have to actually Yes. Be done, But if it's a demolition permit, that would bring it into compliance and you wouldn't even have to come back.

Would make sense. All right.

Right. Everyone understand that?

Yes, Thank you.

Same Same page? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Alright. So this next case, I believe the property owner, I think we've got somebody else coming in too. So we may you're gonna need to swear that, yeah, Some people here. So let me do this first. Let me let me call the case and then I'll have you swear this person and the people who just walked in. So the next case is you said it was p.

Yeah. CE case 2502476. The property owner is Heather Hanson, and the property address is 1505 Kirkwood Street. That did again, before we get started, so I think people in the back of the room and Mr. Hansen were not sworn previously. So at this point in time

I was Oh,

you were sworn. Okay.

Yeah.

We'll wait then. We'll wait. We'll we'll swear to those people later. Okay. So, whenever the the city is ready to begin, they may begin.

Okay. I'm Josh Preston, code enforcement inspector for the city of Northport, and I have been sworn. Case number 25Dash02476 was initially inspected on 08/13/2025. This case is addressing the violation of Northport City Code 70 dash 21 driving through the city right away. Northport City Code 59 Dash one C one allowed parking, parking on an unapproved surface, and Northport City Code 59 dash two damage to the city right away.

The property has been inspected on multiple occasions, most recently on 12/09/2025. I have not had contact with the property owner prior to today, and I have one photo or two photos rather to present as evidence. The photos were a true and accurate depiction of the property located at 1505 Kirkwood Street.

Do you have the a photo of the driving through the

Yes.

Right away? Okay.

Let me this one right there. As you can see here, the it's actually worn down to the roots of the trees that are exposed coming from this street through the city right away and on onto the back of the property.

Okay.

And then the other one, there's another vehicle back there as well that is currently being worked on as a

So so this give give me my bearings here. Where what am I looking at? Is it where is the city right away in relation to this?

So I'm in the I'm in the street on the edge of the street. So the city right away will be from my truck window through the city right away up into the back of the property.

Oh, so that entire what I looks like a driveway?

It looks like a driveway.

It must is inside the city right away?

A portion of it. Yes, sir.

Okay. Alright. Anything else? No, Alright. Mister Hanson, just describe how you're related to the property owner.

Oh, that's my wife. Okay.

All right.

I will let you speak and bring your wife.

Hansen and I've been sworn in. Okay.

All right.

So, yeah, I mean, essentially, we need until April to where we can afford to install the culvert and put a driveway in there and, you know, improve the situation. But in the meantime, we've got three kids. They're all driving, so it's hard to find places to put all these vehicles, and it seemed like the most appropriate place at the time.

So so okay. Let's just let's kinda divvy this up in parts. So the part that's the, you know, driving through the right of way and damage to the right of way. Again, is this one of these situations where if if you just had the permit in hand, but the work wasn't done, would that bring that into compliance?

That would satisfy me. Alright. If you

can obtain the permit. That would work. So Easy peasy. Yeah. Permit. But you don't you can wait till I mean, those permits are good for what? A year? Approximately. Yeah. Approximately. Yeah. So so that so, you know, that can solve that problem and that doesn't take till April to Right. Do. Right? And then the so it's it's so describe and I I don't know if it's this this vehicle. I think it's the other vehicle that's in the other photo that's the that is Inoperable vehicle? Is yeah. Is that the yeah. The one that's

Yes.

Yep. Not As you

can see there, it's up on Yeah. It's jacked up off the

ground there. Alright. So can you just explain to the gentleman what it would take to bring that violation into compliance?

Basically, the culvert permit wouldn't satisfy me where I can close this case out completely and it will buy you time

Okay.

At least a year to get that done. We would not be the entity inspecting the culvert. That's another department. However, just having an active permit would satisfy that that you're acting in good faith to complete that culvert permit and just extend the gravel or shell drive Yeah. From the edge of the concrete apron to the rear of your property, and we'll call it a day.

Okay. Well, but but is this truck still there?

Oh, is. Yes. If you get that back into repair

what it takes to bring that

and Yeah. Just get that vehicle operable, the one that's up on blocks

Yeah. We've got the transmission out, so Okay. We've gotta put the new one in.

Okay. If you can get that done, I mean, your honor, if we can continue this case till the January 22 It's been

the the day of continuances.

It is. But do you think you can get

that obtained within the January hearing, you should be able to have a permit in hand for the culvert and

have this So if I have the permit already before that established, I don't there's no need

to go up or Yeah, if you get the truck operable or you get it somewhere else, I guess, it's allowed to be and you get the permit in hand and you let the code enforcement officer know that you would not even need to come back. Okay.

Me give you my contact information. All right. I

think we got one more coming. Not Okay. Sure We'll just take a recess in place here while we figure this out.

Right. Because, yeah, it's first come first serve and then we go back to

did this one did this one show up? That's when you showed up. Right?

Oh, yeah. That's the one. Yeah. That that trumped everything else. That's why.

So you use the little red.

Because I I couldn't connect. So why

is it out there?

So I just took

pictures and a

little bit so

I can go back and find the right

addresses for the right case signs and. Because he's way out there on the East End. I I couldn't get Internet.

That's what they're using the color bar at the at the

bottom of it. Yeah. And I just

use that little stylus.

You can go there and just

write it on there. Okay.

To the beginning. It was continued to the next. This is the meeting of continuances. All right. So the next case we have is a continued case. It's case CE case 20Five-eighteen55.

You're you're requesting a continuous Yes. 2220 that the case will be continued till that hearing date. Alright. So now we actually do have some more for people who are here.

Okay. So that's the parking and the right of way.

That trailer has since been moved, but it's, like I said, it's an active site. So there's constantly vehicles and trailers coming in and out there on reinspections.

So I mean, on so on the prohibited parking in the city right of way, I mean, are you asking for a finding that even though it's in compliance as of today

But it wasn't there in compliance.

Has was not As

of December 9, just a couple of days ago, there was a lot of compliance. There was another passenger vehicle that was parked there. The truck was not there when I inspected

Okay. It's a different vehicle,

but okay.

Alright. Understand. Anything else? No, Okay. Mister and missus Bodran. Bodran. Okay. So are you the trustees of the land trust?

We bought the property. We bought the property from

Oh, okay. You bought it. Okay. So you're now the current owners. Alright. Alright. State your names for the record and that you've been sworn.

I'm Gregory M. Bodwin.

And you've been sworn?

Yes, I am.

Yeah.

Sharon Bodwin, I've been sworn.

Alright. And you can ask questions or you can say anything you wanna say.

Since these pictures have been taken, everything in the property in the front and the right of way or easement has been removed. It's gone. Okay. The vinyl fence, I mean, I can't have that fence up, I have $25,000 in air boat by itself in the backyard, I'm building on right now. My shop's back there. It's mobile. It's on wheels. The culvert pipe, I guess, improved driveway. We're just learning about this stuff. I've never had a piece of property before. What kind of fence can I put up to keep people out? Because there's a lot of theft out there.

Mean Boy, this is Yeah. So this is

It's a quirky thing

about the Norport code. There's been people who have come. And I think some have actually approached the city commission on has

changed.

It has changed.

You can get a permit for well, you don't need a permit, but you can do it on a vacant lot now.

Okay. So the rule has changed. You used to not be able to allow fences like that. But apparently now, you can. And you're saying you don't even need a permit for it?

If it's under I believe you want to check the planning and This is what I remember. If it's under six

feet We've trying voicemail, phone tag. Yeah, I

mean, you're here, you might as well go down. We're going go down. What I'm kind of hearing is it was the prior owner that was prior problem and here's the white knights and they're, you know Well, I'm They're like the problems of yeah, I understand. Stan, I mean, you know, there's a lot of stuff here.

We just

moved in too.

We just moved in.

Yeah. When did you close on the property?

April.

Maybe April.

April ish? We hadn't been out there

Okay.

As a teacher.

Oh, and then you have yeah. When when was the first time you went did you did you see this property before you bought it? No. No. But, yeah. When did you see it the first time?

Sometime during the summer.

Yeah, All right.

Okay. Well, honor, I would like to add that it appears to me that someone's actually actively living on that property in the RV.

Talk talk about that. I mean, talk I mean, tell them what what has to happen if that is happening. The have

a question about the fifth wheel. I mean, we we kinda copied 40 other three 43 other people out there. Everybody has a fifth wheel on their property. So we kinda thought we we don't live there. We haven't we haven't been back to

the case.

So we're not we we we stay out there. Everyone's small. It's not even livable. I'm rebuilding the inside of it. That would be the construction material up front. Since then, that's been moved and taken off the property.

Right.

And the whole front yard has been cleaned up. The vehicle's been removed. I mean, I've done everything except for the culvert. We had to look up what an improved driveway means because I haven't again, I've pictures myself out there. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with the driveway. Yeah.

So they they need to understand what the definition of camping is, what's what's permitted and what's prohibitive. If that are you familiar with that?

Essentially, having the RVs out there, the vehicles out there, you cannot park on an unimproved lot. So you'd have to have a prime a principal structure on that lot. What is a principal structure? A residence.

A residence. A house.

How do okay. That makes no sense to me.

But if we're out excuse me. But if we're out there to try to get it livable?

We can't live on it. That's the problem.

Not. We're out there trying to get it ready to be at that point. So where would we park?

You can't park there. So wherever you find another place to park is dripping on you.

Well, I think well, are you talking about this parking during the day and then leaving? Are you talking about Yeah.

We've mainly spent three nights there and they weren't consecutive nights. Yes.

Okay.

So your honor, Kevin Aduchi, manager for the code enforcement division. So this is pretty simple, and a lot of people don't understand it. The only way the only thing that can be on that property presently is that fence. There could be no items left there that have weren't there before that aren't in their natural state, which basically is just trees, shrubs, dirt, whatever's there naturally. You can't live there. You have to remove everything from that property. If you wanna live there, you come down to the building department. You just file a a permit to build a home. There's all kinds of regulations to do that, the square footage. And I'm not even sure if that lot would qualify because some of the lots, the zoning has changed.

Everything has to be removed from that property. That's the violation. It's not Are you the owner, sir? Yeah. Are you the owner?

Yes.

Yeah. They they the Is that is the name that I'm not This the prior owner that we've got.

Mister Prasier. I'm sorry, sir.

It's the prior owner that we've got that they're they're not the land trust. They're they're the current owners.

Sarasota County still shows

They're approved.

That trust.

Do you

have paperwork to prove you're the owner?

Not with me, but I

Are you leasing the property to own or did you buy it outright?

I bought it outright.

Okay. When was that?

In April. So why

don't you have a deed that's recorded?

We we we were not done paying for it. That's what he asked.

He said, leasing the property. So so really, you're a tenant on that property. The case is against the property owner. The property owner was notified, I believe, correctly, through our channels. If you have a contract with them, you may be in violation of the contract with that property owner. Our our violation is with the property owner. But I'm just letting you know nothing can be in that property except that fence because of our new the way we're doing fences. Now you don't need a permit as long as it meets those regulations. But living there, camping there, leaving is there an RV there?

Yes,

sir. That's got to go. This stuff associated with the RV, no vehicle.

Bus that's living out there. It's an

economy. I'm sorry.

People out there with RVs and stuff living out there.

They're also in violation.

It's the

same brain. But And

if you're trying to argue selective enforcement, all those other lots will come before this body. So selective enforcement is not

stop out there. So if leave here and go to the building and zoning and start to file permits and stuff, it would be still be in violation? Yes. Even if you have the permits?

You're you're not gonna get a permit, like, anytime soon. For you to file for the permit, you're at at least two months out, and then you're gonna need engineering, and you're gonna have to you're gonna have to meet all the requirements that the city is gonna, is enforcing. One of them is you're going to need septic, you're going to need a well, you're going need the plans for the actual building. There's a host of things you have to do. It's not something that gets done in like a week or two.

Never happens. Yeah. The, I mean, me if I'm wrong, once the building permit is issued, there's all kinds of conditions for that permit. You have to put up a self fence and then you are allowed to, you know, temporarily store construction materials because that's necessary to build a house. But it's again, it's it's they're all those conditions are built into that permit.

Correct.

But they're not the owner.

But you're they're not the owner, so it would be hard for you to get a building nearly impossible.

The permit. You can only do owner builder. They are not the owner. And if we continue this case and the owner does not show, I'm gonna ask for a default at the next hearing for the violation to be issued. We can't keep having these informational sessions. You are living in Northport, you are impugned with knowing the codes of this city and following those codes.

No, I haven't heard anyone from the city asking for a continuance on this case. So I'm not

asking for a continuance. Yes.

Okay. So then the property owner was properly noticed. We have proven the violations in this case. Then at this time, on behalf of the city of Northport, Kimberly Rubino, I have been sworn. We are going to ask for the violations to be issued at this time.

Okay.

So are the violations against us or the comp

It's a it becomes a lien against the property.

Oh, okay.

But whatever contracts or things you have with the property owner, that is not for us to decide. If

you had con sorry. This is just, again, if you had contacted the property and we have a contract with them and you probably don't know the answer to this, shouldn't or wouldn't they have contacted us?

I cannot I can answer that.

I mean, I Yeah. Always We're wondering why they're not here.

Right. That's my concern, too.

They were the ones that were noticed. All right. So I mean, I will just tell you right now, I'm not inclined to grant a continuance in this case. I think, you know, most of this can be probably resolved within twenty five days, but I'm willing to hear anything from you, you know, regarding timing on this.

With if I may, your honor, with all due respect, they do not have the appropriate authority to speak on this case.

Yeah. Well, yeah. I mean, that it that's problematic. I mean, owner should be here.

I mean, the violation was on the property in our names.

The property is not in your name?

Yeah. I mean, we just looked it up

in the the records of Sarasota County. You're you're

not listed anywhere. Our names on. What? The paperwork that was on those.

I said didn't.

No? Alright.

Just some note in the front yard and everything's talked to the inspector.

Alright. You want anything? Well

No. I'm just

I I hear I hear the objection of the assistant city attorney and I don't necessarily disagree with the position of the city. But I'm going to give you one last I I'm going to get I am going let you just say anything you want to say, then I'm going to rule.

So question so with twenty five days, you're saying that everything has to be off the property but the fence in twenty five days?

Correct.

Where I'm leaning. Yes, I haven't ruled yet, but that's where I'm headed.

Is it possible to have longer than twenty five days?

Well, again, if the owner was here, I might be inclined to talk to the owner, but the owner is not here. Okay. So anything else?

How was the owner notified? Like certified mail that they got Yeah.

That's how I get jurisdiction over the owner. Alright. So in this case, as to, I'm gonna find there is a violation in Norport City code, 42 dash 23 for the accumulation of debris. A fine of $10 a day with a maximum of $1,000 will commence on 01/06/2026 if not brought into compliance by 01/05/2026.
