responded that he sent copies of the requirements issued by the Building
Division for canopies to the Respondent.
Chairman DeLiso was under the impression that the City's Building Department
would be contacting all residents who own canopies to attend a meeting. Mr.
Blasie reported that Code Compliance sent letters to all current owners of
canopies informing them how to bring the canopies into compliance,
Mr. Foot asked Attorney Tolces if the Board should proceed to hear the case.
Attorney Tolces responded that the Board could choose whatever action it
wished to take.
Mrs. Hall said that when they purchased the house in 1995, the canopy was
present. She felt that they should not be required to have a permit for the canopy
since it was already on the property when they bought the house.
Mr. Rossi pointed out that it was incumbent upon the property owners when
purchasing property to determine if there was anything illegal on the property.
Mr. Hall responded that they relied upon the realtor when they purchased the
property.
Chairman DeLiso asked Attorney Tolces how canopies were addressed in the
City's Code. Attorney Tolces responded that the Code has not been changed,
but a determination was made that canopies were structures that require a
permit. Also canopies must meet the windload requirements.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 01-1792, Mr. Foot
moved that this Board find, as a matter of fact and as a conclusion of law, that
Olive B. and Wilbert S. Hall are in violation of the Standard Building Code '97
Edition 104.1.1. Mr. Foot moved to order that the Respondents correct the
violations on or before May 20, 2002. If the Respondents do not comply with this
Order, a fine in the amount of $25 per day, plus administrative costs shall be
imposed. The Respondents are further ordered to contact the City of Boynton

Inspector Lewis presented photographs to the Respondent and then to the
Board. Mr. Williams stated that his wife would speak.
Mrs. Williams said that when they put the canopy up two years ago, she called
the City and was informed that she did not need a permit if the canopy was not
attached to the house. Chairman DeLiso referred to the previous case. He noted
that when this issue first came before the Code Board, some of the members felt
that a canopy was a temporary structure. The Board then asked the City
Commission to define a canopy and whether or not it had to be permitted, The
City Commission determined that canopies were structures and needed to be
permitted, as well as meeting the necessary setbacks.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 01-1794, Mr.
