pointed out a Respondent was usually represented by a spouse or other relative. He

October 15, 2008
Motion
Mr. Himmelbaum moved that Case #08-2443 be tabled until the next Code Compliance
Board meeting to be held on November 19, 2008. Mr. Karageorge seconded the
motion.
The question was raised as to what could happen if Mr. McCann pled no contest, and
the Board provided 30 days to comply, levying a fine. Attorney Tolces responded the
hearing would have to be re-noticed. He provided a worst-case scenario. If the Board
entered an order, and a lien was placed on the property because compliance was never
achieved, the Respondent could challenge the action taken. If the Board agreed to table
the matter, Attorney Tolces recommended Mr. McCann be requested to provide a Power
of Attorney in the event the Respondent was unable to attend the next meeting.
Following discussion, the motion passed 5-1 (Mr. Yetzy dissenting).

Case # 08-803 John Paul and Cristina Brancato
96 Citrus Park Lane
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, noted the property was currently being
salvaged from foreclosure. A lis pendens had been filed against the property owners,
John Paul and Cristina Brancato, and was recorded on December 17, 2007. Patti Baker,
of Keller Williams Realty, had been working with Ms. Springer, Code Compliance
Coordinator, and it was believed a closing was scheduled for the near future. Ms. Baker
cured the violations and brought the site into compliance. She also paid an outstanding
water bill of $572.68. Mr. Blasie provided photographs for the Board. In one of the
photographs, it appeared the pool gate was not secured. However, another photograph
illustrated the gate had been secured with a chain and padlock. Mr. Blasie noted the
pool violation resulted in a lien on the property.
Patti Baker, Keller Williams Realty, 7552 Texas Trail, Boca Raton, noted she was the
realtor for the sellers. A buyer had been found and would be occupying the property.
It was questioned whether the new owner would be responsible for the dollar amount
agreed to by the Board for a lien reduction. Ms. Baker responded the parties were
involved in a short-sell transaction, wherein she negotiated a purchase agreement with
the lender, Chase. Chase was only allowing Keller Williams Realty to pay administrative
fees in order to remove the lien and close on the property.
Attorney Tolces advised if the Board approved the lien reduction, under the Code, the
Respondents had 90 days to pay the reduced amount. If the amount was not paid, the
full amount of the lien would be due and owing. If the Respondents were unable to
resolve the issue in 90 days, in all likelihood the short sell would not go through, and
the lien would remain on the property.
Ms. Baker pointed out the buyer would not purchase the property with a lien currently
in place. Chase had agreed to pay only the administration fees, even if it meant the
property would go into foreclosure. The property had not been maintained in months,
despite Ms. Baker's due diligence in bringing the property up to Code. She maintained
if the issue was not resolved at this meeting, the property would go into foreclosure.
Attorney Tolces added in the event of foreclosure, it was likely the City would not
receive any monies.
Ms. Baker noted if the issue was resolved at this meeting, she would re-submit a
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 1 form to the lender tomorrow morning, and
the buyer would be ready to close within two to three weeks.

It was noted staff appreciated the efforts of Ms. Baker and Keller Williams Realty in
bringing the property into compliance and finding a buyer.
In light of the danger posed by an unattended pool, it was suggested at least a nominal
fine of $1,000 plus administrative costs be assessed. Attorney Tolces reiterated no
monies would be received by the City if the property went into foreclosure, and Chase
had only agreed to pay administrative costs.
It was believed it would be better to collect something, rather than nothing, on the
property and as such, it was suggested the Board settle for administrative costs. Mr.
Blasie noted the board's decision was subject to review by the City Commission.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-803, and having been advised
that the Respondents have complied with all lien reduction procedures set forth in
Section 2-84 through 2-89 of the City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances, Mr.
Himmelbaum moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-803, by
virtue of this Board's Order of April 16, 2008, to an amount of $634.12, which is
inclusive of administrative costs. Ms. Carroll seconded the motion that passed 5-1 (Mr.
Foot dissenting).

Officer Lewis presented the case and reviewed the details of the violations. City staff
was requesting the Board abate the nuisance for the costs to mow, trim and clean up
the property.
Motion
Mr. Yerzy moved to abate. Ms. Carroll seconded the motion that carried unanimously.
Mr. Blasie pointed out staff would prefer the Board provide a deadline for compliance.
If compliance was not achieved, the Board would go forward with the nuisance
abatement process.
Mr. Karageorge noted the Respondent was a repeat offender, and it was suggested the
Board provide 10 days for compliance with the issuance of a Cease and Desist Order.
Attorney Tolces noted it was up to the City to take action with respect to abating a
nuisance on the property. He suggested proceeding with an Order setting a time
period, a higher fine for a repeat violator if that was the Board's desire, and if the
nuisance was not abated within 10 days, the Board would direct the City Commission to
abate the nuisance.
Mr. Foot suggested a 10-day compliance period and a fine of $250 a day, and that the
original motion be amended. Mr. Yerzy withdrew his motion.
