Meeting Minutes
Code Compliance Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
August 17,2005
Michael Fitzpatrick and Lisa Hanley, 175 SW 2nd Street, pled not guilty. Mr.
Fitzpatrick addressed the complaints in sections: (1) pick up loose items that would
cause a hurricane hazard, (2) trim all overgrowth, (3) the back corner of the lot, and (4)
harassment and/or selective enforcement.
With regard to the first complaint, Mr. Fitzpatrick noted Officer Laverdure stated there
were no hurricane hazards. Mr. Fitzpatrick presented photographs, as well, to the
Board. With regard to trim all overgrowth, he noted Officer Laverdure came to the
property and Mr. Fitzpatrick thought they had come to an understanding that if the
property was trimmed 50' back from the sidewalk, the property would comply, which he
has done.
Mr. Fitzpatrick reported that Mr. Blasie and Officer Laverdure were at his property
yesterday and took the pictures presented to the Board. Mr. Fitzpatrick noted that they
have taken out all the grass in the swale area. Mr. Fitzpatrick further felt they have
complied by trimming back the grass 50' from both roads, since the property is on a
corner lot.
When the Code Officers came to his property yesterday, some grass has since grown
out into the 50' area and if this is a violation, he felt they should be cited again because
the property had complied. Mr. Fitzpatrick acknowledged that the back corner lot is
overgrown with natives and they would like to keep it in this condition because it acts as
a bird and wildlife habitat. Their yard is a State of Florida certified yard and they use no
pesticides or fertilizer and very little water. Mr. Fitzpatrick would like to install a privacy
fence approximately 25' to 50' back from the road in order to maintain this part of the
yard in its current condition.
Ms. Hanley had a letter from their neighbor across the street complimenting the
Fitzpatrick's yard. Ms. Hanley weeds the yard on a daily basis. Further, Ms. Hanley
pointed out that the plantings they were cited for are the same as those at the Children's
Museum. They are mitigating the globally imperiled Florida Coastal Scrub on a 29' pile
of sand. She stated there is a certain kind of grass that keeps growing back and the
birds feed on this. She had repeatedly cut back the "unknown grass," but she does not
want to totally rid the property of it because the birds feed on it. Ms. Hanley also noted
that State Representative Anne Gannon liked their yard and requested Ms. Hanley help
her with her yard. Ms. Hanley opined that people like the feel of the old Florida look that
their yard presents.
Vice Chair Cook said that the yard must comply with the Code and not what people
would like to have their yard look like. She asked what the issue was regarding the
appearance of the Fitzpatrick property.
Officer Laverdure noted xeriscape yards must be weed free and mulched. With regard
to the 50' setback, this applied to commercial property, not residential. Officer Laverdure
agreed that Mr. Fitzpatrick has cut back 50' from the front of his house, but the back lot
5
Meeting Minutes
Code Compliance Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
August 17,2005
has not been cut back. Vice Chair Cook inquired if the respondents were allowed to
erect a fence, would this correct the violation.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, explained there are two separate Code
sections that address this issue. One was cited and one was not. The more restrictive
Code was cited. A copy of the Code was furnished to Mr. Fitzpatrick. The Code section
dealing with the 50' setback is in Section 10-2 of Chapter 10 and deals with "acreage."
Mr. Fitzpatrick's property is not "acreage."
Officer Laverdure cited the property for the Community Appearance Code that is more
specific. Grass cannot be more than 12" high and the property is in violation of many
Codes. Mr. Blasie stated the fence would not resolve the issue, and the Board has no
authority to grant a variance for the fence. Mr. Blasie felt the pictures were quite evident
that a violation of the Code exists.
Further, Mr. Blasie did not think that this hearing was the place for the selective
enforcement issue and he informed Mr. Fitzpatrick yesterday what selective
enforcement is.
Mr. Blasie pointed out even if the respondents contend their property is xeriscaped, it
still needs to be maintained. The Code does not allow people to grow things willy-nilly or
to neglect pruning the landscaping. He added that staff feels the violations are clear-cut
and did not warrant further debate.
Ms. Simshauser asked about the Florida Certified Yard and Mr. Blasie explained that
even though a yard may have that status, it still needed to be maintained according to
the Code.
Mr. DeLiso inquired if Mr. Fitzpatrick applied for a variance for the fence, would it shield
the yard from the street. Mr. Blasie explained there are no variance options for the
Community Appearance Code. The only variances available are limited to the zoning
Code. Mr. Blasie noted that a 6' fence would not hide the yard from the street.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #05-1367, Mr. Foot moved that
this Board find that Michael Fitzpatrick and Lisa Hanley are in violation of City of
Boynton Beach Code Sections as cited, and moved to order that the Respondents
correct the violation on or before October 16, 2005. The Board has considered the
gravity of the violations, the actions taken by the Respondents, and all previous
violations by the Respondents, and hereby orders that if the Respondents do not
comply with this Order, a fine in the amount of $25.00 per day, for each day the
violations continues past October 16, 2005, plus Administrative Costs, shall be
imposed. The Respondents are 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. Motion seconded by Ms. Simshauser.

Vice Chair Cook thought the fine should be higher and recommended a fine of $50 per
day.
Mr. Foot amended his motion to $50.00 per day. Vice Chair Cook seconded the
amended motion. The Recording Secretary called the roll and the motion carried 4-2
(Mr. DeLiso and Ms. Simshauser dissenting).
Ms. Hanley said if they had been told in June that the tall grass was actually the
problem, they would have taken care of it. She reported they were never originally
informed that this was the violation.
Attorney Tolces informed the respondents that they should speak with the Code
Compliance staff to determine what they must do to come into compliance.
Case No. 05-738:

Thomas Hatch
1620 NE 3rd Court
FBC '01 Edition BBA 104.1.1 and Section
13-16 B.B.C. of Ord. A building permit is
required as stated in memo from Building
Official. Rental property requires an
occupational license.
Officer Lewis presented the case. The property is a single-family, non-homestead home
and was initially inspected on April 4, 2005.
Thomas Hatch, 1620 NE 3rd Court, Boynton Beach, pled no contest and asked for 60
days. The respondent reported that they will be tearing down non-permitted structure
and turning it back into a carport. No hurricane hazards are prevalent.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #05-738, Vice Chair Cook moved
that this Board find that Thomas Hatch 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 October 16, 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 for each day the violation continues past October 16, 2005,
plus Administrative Costs, shall be imposed. The Respondent is further ordered to
contact the City of Boynton Beach Code Compliance Division in order to arrange for re-

Article IX-15-120 (0), Inc.; and Chapter 15,
Article IX-15-120 (B) 1. Please remove all
construction debris from the swale and
property area. Mow and trim overgrown
yard and hedges.
Officer Lewis presented the case. The property is a single family, non-homestead home.
The property was cited on June 28, 2005, as the result of a citizen's complaint. Service
was obtained on August 15, 2005 and there are health and safety issues at the site.
Jean Baptiste, 11446 54th Street North, Royal Palm Beach, Florida, assumed the
podium and stated he was the husband of the respondent and pled guilty.
Officer Lewis explained that the violation resulted from an addition being built onto the
property and the last time he inspected the property was in February. The job had been
halted. All the construction material has been left at the site and there is material on the
roof. The debris in the swale has been there since June 28, 2005, when the property
was cited. Officer Lewis pointed out the debris has nails sticking out and was left in the
area between the sidewalk and the swale. Officer Lewis thought someone was living at
the property and it may be rented. He will be checking into this. Since the property was
cited, the Building Division red tagged the property and this is another case.
Officer Lewis presented photographs to the respondent and then to the Board.
Mr. Foot inquired why the construction was not completed. Mr. Baptiste responded that
he paid someone to bring a dumpster to the site, but he never showed up. With regard
to the permit that expired, he said he paid $17,000 to a contractor that never completed
the job and left the site. He asked if he could have 90 days to complete the job. Mr.
Baptiste said he would have the yard cleaned up in a week.
Officer Lewis was going to recommend 10 days for the current violations to get the
property cleaned up. The permit issue needed to be addressed with the Building
Division. Officer Lewis informed the respondent he could rent a dumpster from Public
Works. Mr. Baptiste was under the impression if he left the debris on the swale, the City
would pick it up. Officer Lewis noted the City does not pick up construction debris that
has nails and Mr. Baptiste would have to call for a special pick up.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #05-1436, Vice Chair Cook moved
that this Board find that Marie C. Nicolas is in violation of City of Boynton Beach Code
Sections as cited, and moved to order that the Respondent correct the violations on or

writing by certified mail of the violation and given 10 days to comply. The letter came
back from the Post Office and Officer Melillo hand delivered it to the respondent
yesterday.
Chairperson Costantino asked if this property was before the Board last month. Officer
Melillo stated it was, but it was for a different violation.
Michael R. Rogers, 111 NE 3rd Avenue, Boynton Beach, pled guilty. Mr. Rogers said
he would have the property in compliance by the end of the month. He has hired
someone to pick up the debris and is selling the motor vehicle. He presented a copy of
the ad for the sale of the motor vehicle to Mr. DeLiso. Mr. Rogers also thanked Mr.
DeLiso for his assistance and presented him with a letter of commendation.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #05-1479, Mr. DeLiso moved that
this Board find that Michael R. Rogers is in violation of City of Boynton Beach Code

Dennis Vlassis, 1415 South Federal Highway, assumed the podium.
Mr. Foot inquired if there were any other outstanding issues related to this property and
Officer Cain stated there were no other violations.
Chairman DeLiso inquired if the property was sold and Mr. Vlassis stated that it was.
Vice Chair Cook felt that the respondent should be assessed for the administrative fees
and the Board was in agreement with this. She acknowledged the respondent had
difficulty with the sale of the property.
Mr. Vlassis reported that he had allowed the City to use the property for fire training
purposes and 10 days before the closing, it was postponed. At that point he had to find
a firm to demolish the buildings that added to the time for compliance. The respondent
reported it cost $30,000 to raze the buildings.
Mr. Blasie noted the respondent had been given 10 days to raze the buildings, but
before he could proceed, he was required to obtain an asbestos survey that took about
two weeks. After that, there was an additional 10-day period when the Health
Department reviewed their findings. Mr. Blasie noted during this time, no work could be
done.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2319, Mr. DeLiso
moved that this Board find that the Respondents, Gulf Stream Lumber Company,
Dennis Vlassis, Registered Agent, and Margo Vlassis Officer/Director, were in violation
of the City of Boynton Beach Code Sections as cited, subsequent to the date of
compliance specified in this Board's Order of June 15, 2005, and in consideration of the
gravity of the violations, the actions taken by the Respondents to remedy the violations,
and previous violations of the respondents, that this Board impose and certify a fine in
the amount of $768.24, including Administrative Costs. Motion seconded by Vice Chair
Cook and unanimously carried.

VII. Lien Reduction
Case No. 04-2338
Matthew J. & Dianne Williams
125 SW 1st Avenue
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, presented the case. The property was
originally cited on October 15, 2004 for violations of the Florida Building Code. The case
first came before the Board on December 15, 2004 and no one appeared. A compliance
date of January 14, 2005 was set or be fined $25 per day. The demolition permit was
final on April 4, 2005, for 79 days of non-compliance.
Mr. Blasie explained that the building was severely damaged during the hurricanes. The
building was demolished and is now a vacant lot.
Attorney Tolces administered the oath to Mr. Williams.
Matthew Williams assumed the podium and explained that the property was destroyed
by a hurricane at the end of September. Mr. Williams noted the structure was non-
conforming and only half of the building was destroyed by the hurricane, but because it
shared a common roof, he had to tear down the entire building. He also had a problem
getting paid by his insurance company because he had to re-file his claim for the entire
building because the case had already been settled for half of the building. As a result, it
took longer to get the building demolished.
With regard to not appearing at the meeting, he thought it was a miscommunication
because he did not think he had to appear since he was addressing the problem. When
the certified letter went out in January, he was not in town when it was delivered to his
house, so he never received it. Also, he did not realize hewas being fined $25 per day.
Chairperson Costantino asked what Mr. Williams' intentions were with the lot and he
said he would be selling it, along with two adjoining lots. The sale will take place on

Code Compliance Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
August 17, 2005
August 24th but because of this meeting, he postponed the closing until September
because he did not want the lien to be an issue.
Mr. Foot inquired if the building was demolished in May and was informed that was
correct. Mr. Foot inquired what the violation involved. Mr. Williams explained the
building was very old and when it was hit by the hurricane, it was severely damaged.
Mr. Blasie presented photos of the damaged building to the Board.
Chairperson Costantino asked what the respondent was seeking in a lien reduction. Mr.
Williams reported he had expenses of over $11,000 and would like the fines to be totally
eliminated because of the hardship he has incurred over the past several months.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case No. 04-2338, and having been
advised that the Respondent has complied with all lien reduction procedures set forth in

Violations:
Richard C. Hilton, Jr.
112 SW 25th Avenue
Section 424.2.17.1.1 through 10. Please
install fence to secure the pool area
Officer Pierre presented the case.
Richard Hilton, 112 SW 25th Avenue, pled no contest. Mr. Hilton displayed a brochure
and the receipt for a protection device he purchased today to cover the pool. Mr. Hilton
stated the protection netting would be installed by August 26th and he was informed it
would meet Code.
Chairperson Costantino inquired if the Code staff was acquainted with the protective
netting displayed by the respondent. Mr. Hilton also said he has contracted with a
company to install a fence around the pool as well. The netting was only temporary until
the fence could be erected. Members were not certain if the protective netting would, in
fact, meet Code.
Mr. Blasie inquired if the respondent obtained a permit to install the netting and the
respondent stated a permit was not required. Mr. Blasie explained the City would
require a permit, because a barrier would have to be approved by the City. Mr. Blasie
was unfamiliar with the protective netting that Mr. Hilton purchased. He recommended
that the respondent submit the "product approval" to the Building Division. Mr. Blasie felt

it would still have to be permitted and inspected to make certain it was installed
properly.
Chairperson Costantino asked if the pool was currently secured and Mr. Hilton stated it
was not. Mr. Foot asked about the condition of the pool and was informed the pool was
dirty and could be accessed by anyone. Mr. Foot noted there are many children living in
this area, and he had concerns for the children in the neighborhood. He suggested that
the City act quickly in getting the pool secured. Mr. Foot recommended a fine of $250
per day for a first violation.
Vice Chair Cook noted the concern for the safety of the public. Mr. Hilton said he would
drain the pool, if the Board so wished. Officer Pierre stated draining the pool would be
dangerous and would not solve the problem.

Division within the recommended date and he felt the fine was excessive. Mr. DeLiso
recommended allowing the respondent 30 days.
Mr. Foot felt that August 27, 2005 was appropriate and if the respondent needed more
time, he could come back and ask for it. He felt the Board had a responsibility to insure
that the pool was safe and Mr. Foot considered it a hazard. Mr. DeLiso pointed out that
the pool has been without a fence since the hurricanes of last year.
The Recording Secretary called the roll. The motion failed 3-3 (Mr. DeLiso, Ms.
Simshauser and Mr. Yerzy dissenting). Motion failed 3-3.
