Michael J. Morris, 921 SW 34 Avenue, pled no contest. Officer Lewis noted Mr.
Morris could put up a temporary barrier around the pool, and Mr. Morris agreed to do
so on May 21, 2009. The remaining violations had not come into compliance.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #09-812, Mr. Karageorge
moved that this Board find that Michael J. and Jane A. Morris are in violation of the City
of Boynton Beach Code sections cited and moved to order that the Respondents correct
the violations on or before August 18, 2009. The Board has considered the gravity of
the violations, the actions taken by the Respondent and any previous violations by the
Respondents and hereby orders that if the Respondents do not comply with this Order,
a fine in the amount of $100 per day for each day the violations continue past August
18, 2009 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. Mr.
LaRock seconded the motion.
Discussion ensued. Mr. Foot sought a distinction between the pool issue and the
remainder of the violations. Mr. Karageorge advised the intent of his motion was that
all violations come into compliance within 90 days. Mr. Foot noted his objection, as the
pool violation represented a safety issue. He requested Mr. Karageorge withdraw or
amend his motion. Mr. Karageorge agreed to rescind his motion and offer two motions
in lieu thereof.
Chair Costantino acknowledged the original motion made by Mr. Karageorge and
seconded by Mr. LaRock had been rescinded, and two new motions would be offered.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #09-812, Mr. Karageorge
moved that this Board find that Michael J. and Jane A. Morris are in violation of the City
of Boynton Beach Code sections cited with respect to the violation specifically on the
pool barrier code, of securing and approving the barrier, and moved to order that the
Respondents correct the violations on or before May 30, 2009. The Board has
considered the gravity of the violations, the actions taken by the Respondents and any
previous violations by the Respondents and hereby orders that if the Respondents do
not comply with this Order, a fine in the amount of $500 per day for each day the
violations continue past May 30, 2009 plus administrative costs shall be imposed. The
Respondents are further ordered to contact the City of Boynton Beach Code Compliance

moved that this Board find that Michael J. and Jane A. Morris are in violation of the City
of Boynton Beach Code sections cited dealing with the repair and replacement of the
missing or broken windows and exterior doors, repair or removal of the deteriorated
dock and deck, and removal of outdoor stored materials in the back of the property,
and moved to order that the Respondents correct the violations on or before August 18,

individually.
The motion passed unanimously.
Case #09-862 Nelson and Teofila Quinapallo
nd
2897 SE 2 Street
CO CH 15 SEC. 15-120(D) 1 Inc
Remove sod from yard and
unregistered/inoperable vehicle from
the carport, including debris in carport.
Vestiguerne Pierre, Senior Code Officer, presented the case and reviewed the details
of the violation.
th
Nelson Quinapallo, 416 SW 7 Avenue, pled no contest. He noted he had not been
residing at the premises and had instructed the tenants to attend to the violations. As
they had not done so, it was Mr. Quinapallo's intent to have the tenants vacate the
premises. He contended while the tenants had made minor repairs to their vehicle, the
property had not been utilized as a garage, and no major repairs had been made. With
regard to the yard violation, Mr. Quinapallo had been visiting the property to ensure the
sprinklers were turned on. Despite his efforts, the tenants would turn the sprinklers off
to prevent the water from rusting. Mr. Quinapallo was reminded that as the property
owner, it was his responsibility to cure the violations. Mr. Quinapallo had not responded

to the Board's request for a timeframe for compliance. Photographs were provided for
the Board's review.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #09-862, Mr. Yerzy moved that
this Board find that Nelson and Teofila Quinapallo are in violation of the City of Boynton
Beach Code section cited and moved to order that the Respondents correct the violation
on or before June 19, 2009. The Board has considered the gravity of the violation, the
actions taken by the Respondents and any previous violations by the Respondents and
hereby orders that if the Respondents do not comply with this Order, a fine in the
amount of $100 per day for each day the violation continues past June 19, 2009 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. Mr. Karageorge
seconded the motion.
Chair Costantino noted the tenants had been making more than minor car repairs, and
had been operating a full body shop on the property. As such, she believed the fine
should be increased.
Discussion ensued. With the onset of the hurricane season, it was believed the time
element for removal of the debris should also be addressed. Attorney Tolces suggested
the Board include all violations and the timeframe element in one Order, as splitting
Orders would result in additional paperwork, time and expense for staff.
In response to Chair Costantino's comments, Mr. Yerzy amended his motion to double
the fine to $200 per day. Mr. Karageorge seconded the amended motion which passed
unanimously.

(Mr. LaTour arrived at 7:28 p.m.)
Richard Berg, 5754 Hamilton Way, Boca Raton, Managing Member of 215 S. Seacrest
LLC, pled no contest. Mr. Berg's air-conditioning vendor advised he would have the
permits by May 22, 2009. He had originally applied for three permits and was informed
a fourth was required. Mr. Berg noted he had telephoned Officer Roy upon his receipt
of the Notice, and had attended to the violations immediately. He believed he could
bring the property into compliance in 30 days.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in Case #09-901, Mr. Karageorge
moved that this Board find that 215 S. Seacrest LLC is in violation of the City of Boynton
Beach Code section cited and moved to order that the Respondent correct the violation
on or before June 19, 2009. The Board has considered the gravity of the violation, the

Case #08-1319 John Van De Warker 135 SW 1 Avenue
Willie Webb, Senior Code Officer, presented the case. In order to come into
compliance, the Respondent was required to hire a licensed contractor to obtain a
permit for interior remodeling and alterations. The Respondent had been originally
cited on May 2, 2008. The case had been brought before the Board on June 18, 2008,
and Mr. Van De Warker had appeared. The Board had established a compliance date of
August 17, 2008, or $100 per day. The violation still existed, and there were 275 days
of non-compliance.
th
John Van De Warker, 312 SW 11 Avenue, advised he did not reside at the property,
which was currently occupied by tenants. He had been unable to remedy the violation
as a result of financial difficulties. The approximate cost for the work required was
$30,000. Additionally, the roof was leaking and would have to be repaired prior to
compliance. Chair Costantino reminded the Respondent the fine had exceeded $20,000
and would continue to run. Mr. Van De Warker noted the property was in foreclosure,
and he was in negotiations with the bank. To date, Mr. Van De Warker had not
obtained a general contractor or pulled the necessary permits. However, he was willing
to take all steps necessary to bring the property into compliance.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, had assumed the unit was empty. The
tenants currently occupied the west side of the premises, and there had been no issue
with that portion of the property. The work was being performed on the east side,
which was empty and had been secured. The City had no objection to tabling the case,
as no danger would be caused to anyone, and an extension would provide an
opportunity for the Respondent to repair the roof.
It was believed the situation could have been compartmentalized by obtaining a permit
and calling for an inspection. Mr. Blasie believed the matter should be tabled for 90
days to provide an opportunity for the Respondent to comply. A good deal of the plan

review had been completed and approved. Chair Costantino felt 60 days would be
more appropriate, and would provide an opportunity for the Board to track the
Respondent's progress.
Motion
Mr. Karageorge moved that Case #08-1319 be tabled until the Code Compliance Board
meeting to be held on July 15, 2009. Mr. LaTour seconded the motion that
unanimously passed.
th
Case #09-541 Andrew and Sabina Smejkal 189 SE 27 Place
Officer Pierre presented the case and advised the Respondents were required to
remove the inoperable vehicle, stove and debris from the property. The Respondents
had been originally cited on February 24, 2009. The case had been presented to the
Board on April 15, 2009, and no one had appeared. The Board had established a
compliance date of April 25, 2009, or $100 per day. The violation still existed, and
there were 24 days of non-compliance.
Andrew Smejkal, 9561 Carousel Circle East, Boca Raton, had recently learned of the
violation at the time the tenant handed him the Notice. He telephoned Code
Compliance on May 19, 2009 and was advised the Notice had been mailed to him at the
address listed on the tax records, rather than the address at which he resided. When
no response had been received from Mr. Smejkal, the Notice was posted on the door of
the premises. As a result, Mr. Smejkal had never received any of the Notices. The
City's records were changed and now reflect Mr. Smejkal's address in Boca Raton.
Mr. Smejkal then contacted Officer Pierre who advised the stove had been removed,
but the vehicle owned by the tenant had not been removed from the property. Mr.
Smejkal contacted Eastern Towing, the company on file with the City, and was advised,
a "tow-away zone" sign would have to be posted in front of the property for 24 hours
before the vehicle could be towed. Mr. Smejkal visited the premises on May 19, 2009
and posted the sign by 5:00 p.m. Thereafter, Mr. Smejkal contacted the tenant
requesting the vehicle be removed from the property. To date, the tenant had not
complied. Therefore, it was Mr. Smejkal's intent to contact Eastern Towing on May 21,
2009 to have the vehicle removed from the premises.
Officer Pierre advised he had originally opened the case for the purpose of having the
vehicle towed. However, each time the towing company attempted to remove the
vehicle from the property, the tenant blocked the towing company from doing so.
Officer Pierre subsequently closed the case and opened a new case requiring the tenant

to remove his vehicle from the property. Mr. Smejkal indicated the vehicle would be
removed on May 21, 2009.
It was suggested, rather than placing a lien on the property at this time, the case be
tabled until next month, as long as a fine could be imposed in the event the property
had not been brought into compliance.
Motion
Mr. Foot moved that Case #09-541 be tabled until the Code Compliance Board meeting
to be held on June 17, 2009. Ms. Carroll seconded the motion that unanimously
passed.
Case #08-2119 Joel and Rosalia Deyback 7124 Chesapeake Cir.
Mr. Blasie presented the case and reviewed the details of the violations. The
Respondents had been originally cited on July 22, 2008 and were required to remove a
dead palm tree and mow the property. The case had been presented to the Board on
September 17, 2008, and no one had appeared. The Board had established a
compliance date of September 27, 2008, or $50 a day. Compliance had been
documented on April 22, 2009, and there were 206 days of non-compliance.
Photographs were provided for the Board's review. It was noted the property was in
foreclosure.
James Burk, 318 S. Palm Way, Lake Worth, noted he had no relationship with the
Deybacks. The property had been in foreclosure, and Mr. Burk was the real estate
broker for the current owner, Bank of New York Mellon. The property was currently
under contract, and the closing date would be rescheduled.
Mr. Blasie provided an overview of the lien reduction procedure. The City's ordinances
required the Board's decision on the lien reductions be reviewed by the City
Commission. As such, completed minutes of the meeting would be forwarded to each
City Commissioner for review. The Commissioners and the applicant had seven days to
review the Board's Order and request an additional review at a City Commission
meeting. If no such request was made within seven days, the Board's decision would
be final. In the case of foreclosures, it was the Board's intent to recover staff costs and
possibly other necessary costs. It was important the Board and staff be made aware of
any unpaid water or garbage bills, lot mowing liens or back taxes which were required
to be paid by the applicant, and whether any work was performed on the property at
the applicant's expense. The applicant should be prepared to testify and present any
evidence of the expenses paid.

Boynton Beach, Florida May 20, 2009
Mr. Burk indicated the current owner's costs had been minimal and pertained to the
removal of a dead palm tree and landscaping. Mr. Blasie noted his records indicated
back taxes of $11,963. However, this had been previously paid.
Suggestions for a fine included:
?The sum of $1,000 plus administrative costs;
?Administrative costs only; or
?The sum of $1,149, including administrative costs.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-2119, 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.
Yerzy moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-2119, by virtue of
this Board's Order of September 17, 2008, to an amount of $1,149, including
administrative costs. Mr. LaTour seconded the motion that unanimously passed.
Case #08-801 Countrywide Bank, NA 7042 Chesapeake Cir.
Mr. Blasie advised the property was in foreclosure. The Respondents had been
originally served on March 12, 2008 for violations to the Code and Land Development
Regulations. The structure had been damaged by fire during an attempted suicide. The
fire had destroyed the garage and caused smoke damage to the structure. It had been
necessary to repair the garage and replace the plywood, mow, weed and trim, paint the
house, replace the facia and secure the property. The case was brought before the
Board May 21, 2008, and no one had appeared. A compliance date and fine was
established of May 31, 2008, or $1,000 per day. Compliance had been documented on
May 19, 2009. Mr. Blasie provided photographs for the Board's review.
Mark Schoen, 3646 Cypress Edge Drive, Lake Worth, advised he was the managing
broker for Prudential Florida Realty. Prudential had obtained the listing five or six
weeks ago, and the property went under contract the next day. Upon the title
company's discovery of the lien, Mr. Schoen telephoned Code Compliance and attended
to the violations. An extension to close on the property had been coordinated. The
new owner would arrange for any other repairs to be made as quickly as possible and
would be residing at the premises. Countrywide had paid two years of back taxes, a
water bill for $880 and the Homeowner's Association fees for the past two years. The

mortgage was in the amount of $304,000 and the house was sold for $108,000, for a
loss of $200,000.
It was questioned whether the delinquencies had been incurred prior to the suicide
attempt. Mr. Blasie believed the fire had occurred on September 18, 2006, prior to
Countrywide having taken over the property. As set forth earlier, the case had not
been brought before the Board until March 12, 2008.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-801, 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. Yerzy moved
that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-801, by virtue of this Board's
Order of May 21, 2008, to an amount of $9,530, including administrative costs. Mr.
Foot seconded the motion.
Mr. Yerzy explained the reduced fine of $9,530 amounted to 2.5% of the lien amount
($352,000) or $8,800, plus administrative costs of $730.
The motion passed unanimously.
Mr. Burk requested a further reduction based on all of the expenses associated with
compliance and the sale of the property. Mr. Burk was reminded that he had been
instructed to provide all the financial information before the Board had voted. The
Board did not wish to reconsider, believing the reduced fine was fair and appropriate.
Case #07-3383 Maritess Cadano and 1819 Stonehaven Dr.
Mycel Perez
Mr. Blasie noted the property had been in foreclosure. The Respondents had originally
been cited on November 29, 2007 for violations to the City's Community Appearance
Code. The structure had been damaged by water and termites. The case had been
brought before the Board on February 20, 2008, and no one had appeared. The Board
had established a compliance date of March 21, 2008, or a fine of $50 per day.
Compliance had been confirmed on December 17, 2009, with 270 days of non-
compliance. The lis pendens had been recorded on November 8, 2007, and the final
summary judgment on March 24, 2008. The City's lien, however, was still valid. Mr.
Blasie provided photographs for the Board's review.
Frank Wallmueller, 4101 Manor Forest Trail, of Lenson Realty, noted he was
representing Mark Lenson for the current owner. Lenson Realty was given the property

th
to manage on May 6, and the property was put on the market a month later. Shortly
thereafter, the liens on the property had been discovered, and the necessary repairs
had been made. The property was currently under contract and the closing, which was
originally scheduled for May 22, 2009, would be rescheduled to some time next week.
Mr. Wallmueller had in his possession the bill from the contractor in the amounts of
$18,000, $12,700 and $3,000, together with the Release of Lien.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #07-3383, 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.
Yerzy moved that this Board reduce the fines of $13,500 instituted in Case #07-3383,
by virtue of this Board's Order of February 20, 2008, to an amount of $1,309 including
administrative costs. Mr. Karageorge seconded the motion.
Mr. Yerzy noted he arrived at the sum of $1,309 by reducing the fine to 5% and adding
the administrative costs. Mr. Foot suggested the fine be doubled, as the neighborhood
was forced to view a distinctly unpleasant structure. The comment was made that the
5% reduction had been a guideline used by the Board in the past.
The motion passed 6-1 (Mr. Foot dissenting).
Case #07-561 Yachtsman Properties LLC 1550 N. Federal Hwy.
Mr. Blasie reported the Respondent had been originally cited on March 2, 2007. The
case had been presented to the Board on March 21, 2007, and Andrew Cohen had
appeared. The Board had established a compliance date of June 19, 2007, or a fine of
$250 per day. Compliance had been documented on June 16, 2008, with 362 days of
non-compliance. "Before and after" photographs had been provided for the Board's
review.
th
Andrew Cohen, 4721 NW 28 Way, Boca Raton, agent, set forth the circumstances
surrounding the matter. A facade grant in the maximum allowable amount of $15,000
had been provided by the CRA for the restoration of the plaza, which had now come
into compliance. Most of the facade work visible to the public had been completed
within the first 90-day period. Mr. Cohen was attempting to advance the viability of the
plaza in order to attract desirable tenants. The cost for the roof tiles, paint, stucco, and
parking lot restoration amounted to between $55,000 and $60,000, and the
Respondent was required to match the City's $15,000 grant.

Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #07-561, 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. Karageorge
moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #07-561, by virtue of this
Board's Order of March 21, 2007, to an amount of $5,831.33, including administrative
costs. Mr. Yerzy seconded the motion.
Mr. Karageorge noted the reduced fine of $5,831.33 amounted to 5% of the original
fine ($90,500), or $4,525, plus administrative costs.
It was commented the formula for setting a fine had been addressed at the recent
workshop, and it had been discussed a 5% reduction should not be the standard by
which a fine was determined. Mr. Karageorge pointed out it had also been discussed
that the Board would proceed on a case-by-case basis. He believed the 5% was fair
and equitable in this case, based on the measures taken by Mr. Cohen to improve the
plaza, bring the property into compliance and pursue the facade grant from the CRA.
The vote passed 6-1 (Ms. Carroll dissenting).
Case #07-564 Yachtsman Properties LLC 1600 N. Federal Hwy.
Mr. Blasie reported the Respondent had been originally cited on March 2, 2007. The

th
Case #08-3098 Deutsche Bank National Trust 510 NW 11 Ave.
Mr. Blasie noted the Respondent had been originally cited on October 14, 2008 for
violations to the Code. The property had been unsecured, overgrown and littered with
trash and debris. The case had been brought before the Board on November 19, 2008,
and no one had appeared. A date and fine had been established of November 29,
2008, or $500 per day. Compliance had been documented on January 14, 2009, and
there were 45 days of non-compliance. Mr. Blasie provided photographs for the Board's
review.
th
Eloise Wexler, 2726 SW 5 Street, Delray, noted she was the listing broker for
Nautica Realty.
The 10-day compliance period and high fine were questioned. It was noted the 10-day
compliance period and $500 were imposed as the property had not been secured and
had the potential to be used for nefarious purposes.
Ms. Wexler noted a delinquent water bill for $60 and back taxes had been paid by the
Bank. The Bank had incurred numerous expenses as a result of ongoing vandalism of
the property. The Bank had invested approximately $24,000 to renovate the
bathrooms, kitchen, air-conditioning systems and water heaters. The property had
been under contract, and it appeared the closing would be extended for approximately
one week. The property had originally been listed for $119,900, but had been reduced
to $15,000. Ms. Wexler had in her possession the original listing agreement reflecting
the $119,900 sales price, as well as a broker's opinion estimating the value of the
property at $234,000 in April 2007 with an anticipated sales price of $227,000.
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-3098, 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, Ms. Carroll
moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-3098, by virtue of this
Board's Order of November 19, 2008, to an amount of $634.12, the administrative
costs. Mr. LaRock seconded the motion.
Ms. Wexler noted the property had previously been under contract, and when the
original buyer's contractors had arrived at the property to determine a budget for the
scope of work needed, the contractors had been accosted and solicited. The property
also had been to auction on several occasions. As such, she believed she was fortunate
to have a buyer for the property.

Discussion ensued. It was suggested the fine be increased to $1,759 including
administrative costs. Ms. Carroll felt the City should cut its losses and allow the sale to
proceed. She disagreed with the suggested fine of $1,759.
The motion failed 1-6 on roll call vote (Chair Costantino, Messrs. Foot, Karageorge,
LaRock, LaTour and Yerzy dissenting).
Motion
Based on testimony and evidence presented in Case #08-3098, 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.
Karageorge moved that this Board reduce the fines instituted in Case #08-3098, by
virtue of this Board's Order of November 19, 2008, to an amount of $1,759.12,
including administrative costs. Mr. Yerzy seconded the motion that unanimously
passed.
Mr. Karageorge noted the reduced fine of $1,759.12 amounted to 5% of the original
fine plus administrative costs. He explained the 5% penalty had been used as a
guideline and was not "set in stone." Ms. Carroll objected, as she believed it appeared
the 5% penalty had been set in stone, and was not fair to the applicants. Chair
Costantino noted other communities had utilized a flat 10% for their penalty.
The meeting recessed at 8:48 p.m. and reconvened at 8:55 p.m.
