Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, reported he inspected the home in
September. The open electrical boxes were in the utility room on the north side of the
house. He had asked Ms. Shelton to secure the room, and she agreed to do so.
Mr. Himmelbaum noted for the record that he asked Attorney Tolces how an individual
would go about obtaining assistance from the City. Attorney Tolces suggested the
Respondent contact Community Improvement. Mr. Blasie indicated Ms. Shelton had
been in contact with Debbie Reamsnyder with regard to her application.
Motion
Mr. Himmelbaum moved that Case #08-2685 be tabled until the Code Compliance
Board meeting to be held on January 21, 2009. Mr. LaTour seconded the motion that
unanimously passed.
th
Case #08-2469 A Safe Place 146 LL 146 SE 27 Place
Luney Guillaume, Code Compliance Inspector, presented the case and advised a
Business Tax Receipt was required. The Notice of Violation date was August 27, 2008.
The Code Compliance Board hearing date was October 15, 2008, and Attorney James
Dougherty appeared. The compliance date and proposed fine set by the Board was
November 14, 2008, or $25 per day. The violation still existed, with 32 days of non-
compliance.
James J. Dougherty, 7491 N. Federal Highway, C5300, Boca Raton, noted he was the
attorney for A Safe Place and Felicia Dickson. Attorney Dougherty was accompanied by
Ron Brito, who was under contract to perform the work on the property.
Ron Brito, Enterprise Contractors Incorporated, 2559 Webb Avenue, Suite #2, Delray
Beach, introduced himself.
Attorney Dougherty met with Inspectors Guillaume and Roy after the last hearing and
secured a contractor to work with Ms. Dickson. However, the work was not financially
feasible at the prices quoted. There was a problem with a solar panel installed by
Green Tech Solar Solutions and, despite several attempts, Attorney Dougherty had not
been able to reach Green Tech. Ms. Dickson had reached an agreement with Mr. Brito
regarding the structural work, but additional time would be needed for the plans to be
submitted. Mr. Brito was familiar with the City’s process.
Attorney Dougherty explained additional violations were brought to light during the
inspection required for the Business Tax Receipt.

Boynton Beach, Florida December 17, 2008
Mr. Brito requested 90 days to review the work that had been performed, submit plans
and apply to the City for a permit. A Safe Place would be used for single-family rentals.
Motion
Mr. LaTour moved that Case #08-2469 be tabled until the Code Compliance Board
meeting to be held on January 21, 2009. Mr. Himmelbaum seconded the motion that
passed unanimously.
Ms. Blasie addressed the lien reductions. He announced there currently were only four
members present, and a vote by the Board would have to be unanimous. The
applicants present had the option of returning when a full complement of the Board
was present, or proceeding with the four members present. It was noted Mr. Foot
would be arriving late, and the applicants could opt to have their cases heard upon Mr.
Foot’s arrival. If the applicants agreed to have their lien reductions heard at this
meeting, the Board’s decision would be subject to review by the City Commission.
Once the minutes were forwarded to the City Commission, they had seven days to pull
the item and have it reviewed at a City Commission meeting. The applicants were
provided the same opportunity under the Code. Unless a City Commissioner requested
the item be presented to the Commission, the Board’s decision would be final. The
cases for the Respondents wishing to proceed are hereinafter set forth.
th
Case #08-696 Maretha Medeus 240 NE 13 Avenue
and Johnnie Grimes
Mr. Blasie reviewed the case and presented details of the violation. The matter was
originally cited March 3, 2008, and the Respondents were directed to remove all trash
and outside storage at the rental property. The Code Compliance Board hearing date
was April 16, 2008, and no one appeared. The compliance date and proposed fine set
by the Board was April 26, 2008, or $500 per day. Compliance was achieved on
November 17, 2008, with 204 days of non-compliance plus administrative costs.
Two extenuating issues existed. The first related to service which had been effectuated
in accordance with established procedures and law. However, Ms. Medeus indicated
the address noted in the City’s records was incorrect. The records of the County Tax
Collector and Property Appraiser’s Office, however, reflected the address used by the
City to process the case.
The second issue related to the timeframe for compliance. Once Ms. Medeus began
working with the City, she contacted the City Manager with regard to the lien on the
property. Digital photographs were taken of the property and emailed to Ms. Medeus.
The individual renting the property was uncooperative and eviction proceedings were
commenced. This resulted in a delay in achieving compliance.

Meeting Minutes
December 17, 2008
Boynton Beach, Florida December 17, 2008
Maretha Medeus, 130 Alicante Street, College Park, Georgia, discovered the violation
on the internet. After contacting the City Manager, she received photographs of the
property. She was under contract to sell the house to St. John Missionary Baptist
Church, and no one was to have been in the house. Unfortunately, however, her
brother allowed an individual to reside in the house. Thereafter, Ms. Medeus’ brother
advised the individual it would be necessary for him to leave the premises, and the
locks on the doors were changed. The police were contacted and advised the
Respondents that the individual could not be forced to leave the premises unless
challenged through the court system. The individual sold and repaired tires at the
premises for which Ms. Medeus, as the property owner, was cited. Ms. Medeus began
eviction proceedings, and as a result, the individual had been removed from the
premises. Ms. Medeus has since cleaned up the property, and she requested the liens
be waived.
Chair Costantino pointed out she had known Ms. Medeus and her family for some time,
and her current situation was not the norm. Mr. Blasie added the certified letters had
been returned, even though they were processed based on Ms. Medeus’ registered
address.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-696, 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 rescind the fines instituted in Case #08-696, by
this Board’s order of April 16, 2008, and that the lien imposed by that order be
released. Mr. LaTour seconded the motion. The motion failed 3-1 (Mr. Yerzy
dissenting), as four votes were required for the motion to pass.
Chair Costantino noted Mr. Yerzy was in favor of administrative costs being charged,
but would agree to inspection costs of $384.12

administrative costs. Mr. Yerzy seconded the motion that unanimously passed.

Case #08-1710 Soundview Home Loan Trust 2006 404 SE 20 Court
Mr. Blasie presented the case, adding the Notice of Violation date was June 17, 2008
for violations of the City’s Community Appearance Code and Chapter 13 requiring a
Business Tax Receipt for a rental property. The Code Compliance Board hearing date
was August 20, 2008, and no one had appeared. The compliance date and proposed
fine set by the Board was August 30, 2008, or $250 per day. Compliance was achieved
on November 12, 2008, with 73 days of non-compliance plus administrative costs. Mr.
Blasie provided photographs for the Board’s review.
Bob A. Sauer, Caldwell Banker, 1185 East Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach, noted the
property was in foreclosure and under contract, and he was marketing the property for
the Respondent.
Mr. Blasie advised the matter was brought to Code’s attention by the Recreation and
Parks Department staff who observed the trees were growing into the street. Staff cut
the trees back a bit to clear the street, but most of the trimming was performed by the
Respondent. The house was old, and the entire street had been designated a Cottage
District. The Respondent complied with other violations including replacement of rotted
siding, and clearing out the back yard.
Mr. Sauer indicated Deutschbank, National Trust and Certificate Holders of Soundview
Home Loan Trusts, charged him with the task of marketing the home. His crew took
measures to come into compliance, including the maintenance of the property. The lien
had been discovered when the parties went to contract. Deutschbank hired Mr. Sauer
th
to market the property and accepted the listing on September 30. Mr. Blasie’s file
contained a Certificate of Title dated February 25, 2008, which was signed by the Court
March 12, 2008. Deutschbank was aware that Mr. Sauer was appearing on its behalf.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-1710, and having been
advised that the Respondent has 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. LaTour
moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-1710, by virtue of this
Board's Order of August 20, 2008, to an amount of $1,825, including administrative
costs. Chair Costantino passed the gavel to Mr. Yerzy and seconded the motion.
Mr. Himmelbaum pointed out it took approximately 40 days for the property to be
brought into compliance. He suggested 15 days at $250 per day plus administrative
costs.

Boynton Beach, Florida December 17, 2008
Mr. Sauer reiterated he was unaware of the lien on the property until a tax and lien
search was conducted at the time the parties went to contract.
Mr. Himmelbaum suggested the lien be reduced to $4,384 including administrative
costs (15 days at $250 per day plus $634 in administrative costs). The community had
to deal with the nuisance, and Recreation and Parks had to trim back the trees.
Attorney Tolces advised the maker of the motion could amend his motion to change the
amount if he was in agreement with Mr. Himmelbaum’s suggestion, and the person who
seconded the motion could agree to the amendment.
Mr. LaTour agreed to amend his motion to reflect the amount of $4,384. Mr.
Himmelbaum seconded the amended motion that passed unanimously.
th
Case #07-2844 U.S. Bank National Assoc. Trust 519 NW 10 Ave.
Mr. Blasie presented the case and reviewed the details of the violations. The
Respondent was originally cited on September 25, 2007. The violation required the
property be mowed and maintained. The Code Compliance Board hearing date was
November 19, 2007, and no one had appeared. The compliance date and proposed
fine set by the Board was November 29, 2007, or $150 per day. Compliance was
achieved on September 23, 2008, for a total of 298 days of non-compliance plus
administrative costs.
Nick Jackson, Exit Global, 3969 N. Haverhill Road, West Palm Beach, advised he was
the broker in charge of the property for the Respondent.
Mr. Blasie explained the Ficus hedges were 10 or 12 feet high, nearly touching the
house, and had not been maintained. The Certificate of Title had been recorded August
24, 2007.
Mr. Jackson explained his company was not assigned the property until September 3,
2008. Clear title was not readily available as a result of litigation. Once they received
the property, it was brought into compliance.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #07-2844, and having been
advised that the Respondent has 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 #07-2844, by
virtue of this Board's Order of November 19, 2007, to an amount of $2,134, which is

rd
Case #04-690 Pelican Pointe Properties LLC 180 SW 3 Avenue
Mr. Blasie presented the case and reviewed the details of the violations. The
Respondent was originally cited on March 29, 2004 for violations of the City’s
Community Appearance Code. Several areas along two of the streets bordering the
Pelican Pointe Apartments did not have any grass. The Code Compliance Board hearing
date was June 16, 2004, and no one had appeared. The compliance date and proposed
fine set by the Board was July 16, 2004, or $100 per day. Staff documented
compliance on June 14, 2005, with 332 days of non-compliance plus administrative
costs. He provided photographs for the Board’s review.
Dave Bellitier, 180 S.W. Third Avenue, and Ricky Brewster, 8896 Chestnut Ridge
Way, Project Manager, introduced themselves. Pelican Pointe Properties LLC was aware
Mr. Brewster was speaking on its behalf. They submitted photographs for the Board’s
review.
Mr. Bellitier explained at the time notice was received requiring the installation of the
sod, the complex was undergoing construction. The units had been completely gutted
and renovated and more than $240,000 had been spent on landscaping and a new
irrigation system. Mr. Bellitier had informed Code Compliance that he could not install
the sod, as the irrigation system was going to be installed. Approximately 60% of the
units were currently occupied, and an active sales office was maintained on the
property.
Mr. Blasie believed when the property had been purchased, the intent was to bulldoze
the units and replace them with a new project. Currently, a few of the buildings had
not been refurbished. Mr. Blasie noted vandalism involving the theft of outside air-
conditioners and palm trees, had occurred at the site. Landscaping had been added to
make the units more attractive. Mr. Yerzy commented he was impressed with the site’s
appearance.
(Mr. Foot arrived at 8:33 p.m.)
Mr. Bellitier had previously appeared before the Board to request a lien reduction.
However, while the sod and irrigation had been completed, the site was still under
construction. He was, therefore, asked to return to the Board when the property came
into full compliance. To date, most of the units had been completed. He explained he
had been working with the Boynton Beach Police Department with regard to the
vandalism at the site.

Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #04-690, and having been advised
that the Respondent has 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 #04-690, by virtue of this
Board's Order of June 16, 2004, to an amount of $768.24, which is inclusive of the
administrative costs for the eight inspections. Mr. Yerzy seconded the motion that
unanimously passed.
th
Case #08-1950 Wells Fargo Bank Nat’l. Assoc. 228 SE 26 Ave.
Mr. Blasie presented the case and reviewed the details of the violations. The
Respondent was originally cited on July 10, 2008 for violations of the City’s Code
concerning overgrowth in the yard, installation of a pool barrier and maintaining the
pool in a sanitary condition. The property was currently vacant. The case was brought
before the Board on September 17, 2008, and no one appeared. The compliance date
and fine was established by the Board for September 27, 2008, or $500 per day.
Compliance was documented on November 6, 2008, with 39 days of non-compliance
plus administrative costs.
th
Carlina Lerma, 8375 S.W. 87 Court, Miami, advised she was employed by the real
estate company that had the listing, and Wells Fargo was aware she was appearing
before the Board on its behalf. She had taken over the listing of the property in
February 2008. The Certificate of Title was executed November 15, 2007 and recorded
December 3, 2007. The real estate company took over the marketing of the property in
February 2008 prior to her employment. The management company, rather than the
real estate company, performed periodic maintenance on the property. Ms. Lerma
became aware of the violations when the parties went to contract in September 2008
and a title search was made. Measures were immediately taken to cure the violations.
Chair Costantino pointed out the hazards of an unsecured pool, and the possibility of
the loss of a child’s life.
Mr. Blasie noted the pool had now been secured. A chain link fence and padlocked gate
had been installed around the east side of the property and a wood fence across the
rear.
Mr. Foot pointed out that action could have been taken more rapidly to cure the
violations. As evidenced by the $500-per-day fine, the situation was not taken lightly,
and while there were no known accidents relating to the pool, the ordinance and
enforcement efforts were important. He suggested a fine of $3,900 plus administrative
costs, for a total of approximately $4,500. Mr. Yerzy concurred.
