Code Officer Guillaume reported the initial inspection date was November 16, 2004 for
required permits and inspections on interior alterations and a porch enclosure.
Wilfred Pierre, 436 SW 5th Avenue, took the podium and pled no contest after Code
Officer Pierre translated the plea system to him. The Respondent requested an
additional 180 days to bring the property into compliance because he needed to hire an
engineer to begin the approval process with the City. The additional time would also
allow the Respondent enough time to gain the additional funds required to pay the
engineer.
Chair DeLiso asked whether the enclosure represented a safety hazard and Staff
informed him they felt it did not.
Mr. Foot expressed his concern that hurricane season begins June 1st and the 180-day
extension would place the compliance date well into hurricane season.
Motion
Based on the Testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2571, Mr. Foot moved
that this Board find that Wilfred Pierre is in violation of City of Boynton Beach Code
Sections as cited, and moved to order that the Respondent correct the violations on or
before June 1, 2005. The Board has considered the gravity of the violations, the
actions taken by the Respondent, and any previous violations by the Respondent, and
hereby orders that if the Respondent does not comply with this Order, a fine in the
amount of $25.00 per day plus Administrative Costs shall be imposed for each day the
violations continue past June 1, 2005. The Respondent is further ordered to contact
the City of Boynton Beach Code Compliance Division in order to arrange for re-
inspection of the property to verify compliance with this Order.
Code Officer Pierre translated the motion to the property owner.

located in the rear yard area was registered and operable but the one in the driveway

Smith commented her car had a valid tag until just recently and was only inoperable for
a few months. She is trying to get it fixed but had financial constraints that prevented
her from doing so. She stated she had been trying to locate financial assistance in
order to install a driveway extension instead of placing sod on the area. She clarified
she had a large family and many of them parked on the grassy area in the front of the
house.
Code Compliance Administrator Blasie informed the Board the Community
Redevelopment Agency no longer had funding available for community appearance
violations due to budget constraints. The Faith-Based CDC was provided as an
alternative for Ms. Smith to contact for potential assistance.

additional time to take care of the sod and driveway issues.

FBC 2001 ED BBA 104.1.1
Obtain a permit to replace your
fence along the north property line.
The fence is part of your site plan.
Sr. Code Officer Melillo reported this case was initiated as a citizens' complaint. The

month extension in order to bring the property into compliance. He stated the earliest
date they had received from a fencing contractor to replace the fence would be mid-

Association removed all but one panel of the fence. That panel had real property
attached on the other side.

February ~6,2005
Mr. Flex informed the Board the Association received a guarantee of work with a
completion date from only one contractor. The remaining contractors could not commit
to a date to begin work.
Mr. Foot asked what the neighbors' concerns were that started the complaint. Sr. Code
Officer Melillo reiterated this case originated as a citizens' complaint from the residents
on the other side of the development who are located on South Road. Shortly after the
property was cited, Sr. Code Officer Melillo received a phone call from Mr. Flex asking if
the Code Compliance Division would be willing to work with them until they could
secure a fencing contractor willing to at least show up to provide a cost proposal. Once
that was obtained, Mr. Flex would then need to take it to the homeowners for approval.
Some of the complaints the Code Compliance Division received were the missing fence
created foot traffic through the other neighborhood and lights were shining into some
of the homes.
Mr. Flex stated he had not heard about any of the problems Staff mentioned. The only
issue he was aware of was dogs from the other neighborhood were wandering onto the
Mariners Way property. He had not been in contact with anyone from the other
neighborhood, nor had anyone from the other neighborhood contacted him, to discuss
resolution to any issues. He further stated he did not know who to contact.
Sr. Code Officer Melillo stated there were two gentlemen who visited the Code
Compliance Office on several occasions complaining about the foot traffic and the lights
from the cars parking in the Mariners Way parking lots shining into their homes. He
said he had not personally witnessed those incidents.
Chair DeLiso stated he was sympathetic to the concerns of the neighbors but also
understood that it had been difficult, since the recent hurricanes, to get any contractors
to commit to doing any work in Palm Beach County. He asked for all parties to be
patient with the process.
Ken Capp, 708 South Road, took the podium and stated he did not enjoy watching
headlights shine into his living room every night and having to listen to diesel truck
engines running in the parking lot. He indicated the dogs in his neighborhood were not
going onto the Mariners Way property, but the dogs from Mariners Way were coming
into his neighborhood. He also said that the residents of Mariners Way left trash on his
property. He expressed his disagreement with the request for an additional 6 months
to replace the fence.
Sr. Code Officer Melillo distributed pictures of the property first to the property owner
then to the Board. He stated he did not have oversight of the area in which Mariners

Way is located until November 2004. He cited the property on November 9, 2004.
Therefore, it had only been out of compliance on record for a period of 3 months.
Johann Broseno, 714 South Road, took the podium and stated he had the same
concerns as Mr. Capp - specifically, having to listen to the diesel truck engine.
Chair DeLiso asked whether any of the neighbors who had voiced complaints had
spoken to or attempted to contact anyone at the Mariners Way Association as a
concerned neighbor. All indicated they had not. Chair DeLiso said Mr. Flex could have
corrected some of the problems, had IVlr. Flex known what they were. He said it would
not be appropriate for the Board to chastise the Association because this is the first
time these problems had been brought to their attention. Chair DeLiso encouraged
everyone to exchange contact information and work toward a resolution of the
neighboring residents concerns. All agreed to do so.
Chair DeLiso asked the length of fence that needed to be replaced. Mr. Flex stated that
length is 987 feet according to the latest estimate received. He also stated if anyone
knew of a fence contractor that was licensed and insured that would install the fence
sooner than the 6-month time frame he had already been given, he would be more
than willing to hire them immediately. He stated he was unaware of the neighbors'
issues and would work toward a resolution with them.
Mr. Capp stated he would begin making phone calls to secure a fence contractor and
then provide that information to Mr. Flex.
The residents continued to voice their disapproval of the 6-month time extension.
Kenneth Hislop, 744 Mariners Way, Vice President, Mariners Way
Homeowners Association, took the podium and stated he personally contacted 2
fence contractors. Mr. Hislop wanted the Board to know that one of the contractor's
made a promise to provide a quote but never showed up and the other contractor said
he did not work with homeowner associations.
Mr. Flex clarified for the neighbors the plans the developer originally submitted for
Mariners Way indicated a concrete wall. The developer asked for and received a
variance from the Planning and Development Board to put up a wooden fence. The
homeowners association submitted a site plan modification to the Planning & Zoning
department to install a chain link fence. He does not know whether it would be
approved and would install whatever type of fence was approved.
Notion
Based on the Testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2470, Mr. Foot moved
that this Board find that Mariners Way Association l~nc., et al is in violation of City of

Gertrude Belizaire, 618 NE 2nd Street, took the podium and pled no contest. Ms.

months in order to bring the property into compliance. The tenants who had been
living in the trailer moved approximately 1 month prior. She informed the Board some
of the other issues had been resolved and she was getting assistance from members of
her church to fix the remaining violations.

She confirmed that she would.

moved the items it had contained to the small trailer in her back yard. She informed
the Board the addition is not a room but more of a storage area. She would provide
the paperwork to the Code Compliance Division to prove permitting.
Ms. Cook asked whether the refrigerator that was shown in the pictures was still located
on the front porch. Ms. Belizaire clarified that the refrigerator had been taken out of
the home in order to clean it and was put back into the home after the pictures had
been taken. She also confirmed the hedges had been cut to Code.

Violation(s):
Doris A. Grover
2321 NE 4th Street
CH 15-ART.]X-15-120(D)1.E, and
CHAPTER 20 SEC. 8 E-16.
Sod areas void of grass. Place 4-
inch house numbers on building.
Sr. Code Officer Webb reported this property was a single-family homesteaded
property. The initial inspection was completed on December 6, 2004. A written notice
was issued giving 30 days to comply. Certified mail was sent on .lanuary 10, 2005 and
was returned signed on .]anuary 15, 2005.
Doris Grover, 2321 NE 4th Street, took the podium and pled not guilty. She stated
that the house numbers were displayed at the time of the inspection. The bare areas in
the front yard were due to loose bulk trash not having been picked up by the City. The
trash was placed there approximately 3 months prior but the City had not picked it up
as of the time of the meeting. She stated that when the scoop truck does pick up bulk
trash, very often it digs a hole in the ground. She did not feel that this was her fault.
Code Compliance Administrator Blasie clarified if the loose trash were discarded
properly, the scoop truck should not have to dig a hole in the ground in order to pick it
up. He stated typically, if foliage is discarded and kept loose, it was possible the scoop
would leave a hole in the ground. He suggested she contact Public Works to see if they
would fill the hole. ]:t was possible they might fill it once and he would provide her with

the proper contact phone number. However, the City would not be responsible for
placing sod in the area.
Chair DeLiso asked if Ms. Grover would be financially able to place the sod and she
indicated it was a small area and she should not have a problem doing so. She
indicated her neighbors use the opposite corner of her lawn to dump their trash as well
and she has had to place sod in the area prior. She asked for a Hispanic translator to
inform her neighbors about the proper area and method of disposing their waste.
Several Code Officers offered their assistance.
Ms. Grover asked if the Faith-Based CDC could assist her with the hole in her sprinkler
system. Chair DeLiso informed her he did not know whether they could, but she should
contact them to find out what assistance they could offer.
Notion
Based on the Testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2716, Vice Chair
Costantino moved that this Board find that Doris A. Grover is in violation of City of
Boynton Beach Code Sections as cited, and moved to order that the Respondent correct
the violation on or before April 17, 2005. The Board has considered the gravity of the
violation, the actions taken by the Respondent, and any previous violation by
Respondent, and hereby orders that if the Respondent does not comply with this Order,

Lien Certification
Case #04-2246
William Ganoe
418 NWl1m Avenue
Code Officer Pierre reported that the notice of violation had been issued on September
29, 2004. A Code Compliance Board hearing was held on November 18, 2004 and the
Respondent did not appear. A compliance date of December 17, 2004 was set by the
Board along with a fine in the amount of $100.00 per day plus administrative costs if
the violation was still in existence beyond that date. Code Officer Pierre advised that
the property complied on February 15, 2005 and the number of days of non-compliance
was 59 days.
William Ganoe, 9605 Peyton Court, Boynton Beach, took the podium and stated
he received the Writ of Possession and the Sheriff's Department physically evicted the
tenant from the property. The tenant had been given access to the property in order to
remove her belongings and both sides of this duplex are now empty. He understood
15
Meeting Minutes
Code Compliance Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
February :~6, 2005
that an occupational license was not required unless he decided to rent the property
again. He commented he mowed the lawn, and trimmed the hedges and trees. He
asked the Board to consider that the tenant had been in the property for approximately
30 years and it had been a difficult process to get her removed in order to make the
necessary repairs. She was evicted one week prior but he was allowing her time to get
more of her belongings.
Mr. Ganoe had applied for an occupational license but was denied it because of the
condition of the home. He is aware that he cannot rent the property until the
occupational license is issued.
Chair DeLiso asked for the reasons why the property was in non-compliance for 59
days. Mr. Ganoe explained that it was because of the length of time it took to process
the eviction through the judicial system. He explained that the tenant originally agreed
to move out on a specific date but didn't and he had to take her to court to evict her.
Mr. Foot said although there were mitigating circumstances with the tenant situation,
the appearance of the property was a continuing issue that Mr. Ganoe may have had
some control over, and suggested that the costs for the 5 inspections totaling $480.15
was a reasonable amount but to overlook any daily rate assessment.
Mr. Ganoe said he took care of the yard violations before the last hearing in December.
Code Officer Pierre stated he was called at the last minute before that hearing but
confirmed it was in compliance. Mr. Ganoe stated that he either owns or manages over
300 properties. When this case first started, the hurricanes had just hit and he was
busy taking care of the major damage the other properties had sustained. Code Officer
Pierre stated the only issue that held up this case was the occupational license.
Code Officer Pierre stated he wanted Mr. Ganoe to take the Board's warning seriously
and not wait until the last minute to take care of any violations. He was asked to allow
a reasonable amount of time to schedule any inspections with the Code Compliance
Division.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2246, Ms. Cook moved
that this Board find that the Respondent has complied with this Board's Order dated
November 18, 2004, and having considered the gravib/of the violations, the actions
taken by the Respondent, that this Board impose and certi~ a fine in the amount of

Bradley Stocker
148 SW 14th Avenue
Code Administrator Blasie stated this case was part of another case involving the same
Respondent and property - Case No. 03-1008.
Code Administrator Blasie reported that this case was originally cited on March 13, 2002
for violations of the Florida Building Code that involved permits to enclose a
garage/carport into a habitable living space. Mr. Stocker appeared at the May 15, 2002
Code Compliance Board hearing and a compliance date of August 14, 2002 was set or
be fined $25.00 per day plus administrative costs. The property complied on .lanuary
27, 2005 resulting in fines of $22,400.00 and administrative costs of $538.09.
Mr. Blasie distributed pictures first to the Respondent and then to the Board. He stated
the pictures reflected the work cited in Case No. 03-1008. He reminded the Board this
case was in two parts, this one being the permitting issues for the enclosure. The
Respondent had permits pulled and was in the process of converting the room into
what it was originally designed to be.
Mike Snetzler, took the podium and explained he had appeared before the Board at
the Code Compliance Board hearing on December 23, 2004 in reference to another
property he had purchased from Mr. Stocker. At that time, he explained to the Board
he was unaware that there were several large liens and judgments that had been
assessed. Because he did not use a legal title company in doing his title search before
taking possession of the title, he was incurring the risk associated with those items.
Because the liens and judgments are associated with Mr. Stocker's name and not
individual the properties, Mr. Snetzler was not allowed to close on any of the Stocker
properties until the fines were paid.
Mr. Snetzler presented a Settlement Statement from Acoustic Home Loans, Inc. that
itemized the liens and judgments assessed to Mr. Stocker. They include a child support
delinquency of $11,446.72, damages to Gulfstream Lodge of $5,379.61, and Code Liens
of $36,964.36.

Respondent was given 15 days to comply. Certified mail was returned signed on
January 13, 2005. Sr. Code Officer Lewis stated the Respondent was a repeat offender.
Ellington Beckles, 310 NW 16th Court~ took the podium and pled no contest. He
requested an additional 30 days to bring the property into compliance. He understood
the trim needed to be painted but was unsure what other items were still outstanding.
Sr. Code Officer Lewis stated that soffits on the 2nd story needed to be repaired and
painted. Painting also needs to be completed in areas where the stucco is missing
paint. Mr. Beckles stated he had arranged for a mason to design square corners on
both the 1St and 2nd stories and the mason was scheduled to begin the following week.
The soffit damage was due to the recent hurricanes and he was delayed in getting
repairs made because he was waiting for payment from the insurance company. The
insurance company notified him they had declared bankruptcy as a result of the
hurricane damage payouts and would be delayed in getting the money to him.
Mr. Beckles had an issue with the City's notification system and confused violations
between the property on which his residence was located and the lot next door. He
stated he had not understood on what property the violations were. Chair DeLiso
commented he should contact the Code Compliance office and ask for assistance. Mr.
Beckles stated he understood. Sr. Code Officer Lewis reminded Mr. Beckles this
particular case was for the violations concerning the property where the residence is
located but that he would also be issuing violation notices for the lot as well.
Sr. Code Officer Lewis asked about the status of the van located on the property. Mr.
Beckles stated the vehicle is in good condition and is registered with a valid tag.

young men cutting up a car with a cutting torch. The young men said they were
cutting up the car so that it could be removed from the premises. Lt. Henderson asked
Sr. Code Officer Lewis to look into the situation to determine if there was anything that
the Code Compliance Division could do to address the concerns of the neighbors.
Justin Guthrie, son of the property owners, 2126 NE 3rd Street, took the podium
and pled no contest. He stated there were 3 old cars in the yard that he had to cut up
in order to remove them from the premises. He stated that there was no longer any
