Chair Costantino responded it was for everything, but a safety hazard should be repaired first, such as the pool. She advised she could secure the pool but cannot correct the entire violation within ten days. She lived in the house since 1999.

She did not have enough money to make the repairs nor did she have the funds to stop the foreclosure. The board discussed their options and noted foreclosures would be forthcoming and was a sign of the times. This case was a hardship case; to assess a fine, dollar wise was moot, because the funds were not there. Mr. Foot felt it would not be moot, but 5 Meeting Minutes Code Compliance Board Boynton Beach, Florida March 19, 2008 only in the sense that work was done without the permit and if she did not have the money, no work would be done. The work that was done was to enclose the carport. Chair Costantino explained the fine would roll over to the purchasers of the house and the violation would run with the land. Attorney Alexander explained if the property was in foreclosure, there may be a Lis Pendens, against the property. The violation would run with the land, but any fine that would accrue would be foreclosed out if a Lis Pendens had already been filed on the property. Officer Webb noted she had the Lis Pendens paperwork. The board noted the issue would be passed on to the next property owner.

Case #08-21 Location: Violation(s): Tracy Tinari 2011 NW 2nd St. PT3-LDR.CH20-VIII.SEC1.G. 13 Meeting Minutes Code Compliance Board Boynton Beach, Florida March 19,2008 10-2 B.B.C. of Ord. Secure house and remove trash & debris Code Officer Cain reviewed the case which pertained to violations of the Building/Housing Code. The City was recommending 10 days be given, until March 29, 2008 to comply. Motion Mr. Yerzy moved for 10 days or $500 per day. Mr. Foot inquired whether the City should intervene and board up the structure because the house was unsecured. Mr. Blasie explained there were hundreds of empty/abandoned houses in the City. This location had police action on it and the owner was identified and it was not, as of yet, a foreclosure. He explained from staff's perspective, they would like to continue to pursue the homeowner, who lives out of the area, and hold off on the order to abate. He explained there is a very limited pool of funds to secure homes with and literally hundreds, if not thousands, of homes that are abandoned. The City cannot board up all the homes. He explained when a Lis Pendens is filed, the office notifies the owner and the attorney handling the matter and typically attorneys for the plaintiffs understand an unsecured abandoned home is further devalued and can attract unlawful or inappropriate activities. A Lis Pendens is usually a precursor to foreclosure and due to the foreclosure process, staff was seeing a longer wait because there are so many and there was a back log. Staff was trying to hold off on abatements and only abate the real nuisance cases because there are no funds. Mr. Blasie advised this was an ongoing, City-wide issue. He reported Homeowner's Association's are not the most forthright in holding up their end of the rules and the City has had to mow a property in Citrus Glen. They observed a gated community with a property manager simply refusing to do their part. An abandoned house is an opportunity regardless where it is, in residential or commercial areas. Staff has a number of criteria used to prioritize; that aspect was only one of the criteria. Motion Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-21, Mr. Yerzy moved that this Board find that Tracy Tinari is in violation of the City of Boynton Beach Code Sections cited and moved to Order that the Respondent correct the violations on or before March 29, 2008. 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 $500 per day for each day the violation continues past March 29, 2008 plus 14 Meeting Minutes Code Compliance Board Boynton Beach, Florida March 19,2008 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-inspection of the property to verify compliance with this Order.
