Officer Webb reviewed the details of the violations as contained in the staff report. The
Respondent was provided with a notice and given 30 days to comply. Service was
effectuated by certified and regular mail. Photographs were provided for the Board's
review.
Giovanni Caliendo, 172 SE 28th Avenue, pled not guilty, and commented his neighbor
was desirous of purchasing the property. The Respondent contended that since the
photographs had been taken on June 15, 2010, the grass had been cut and the fenced
repaired by his neighbor.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, pointed out Mr. Caliendo was a repeat
offender and it had been necessary to mediate disputes between Mr. Caliendo and
various Code Officers over the years. Mr. Caliendo met with the City Manager's Office
in the past. The property had been in disrepair for some time. The potential purchaser
used due diligence in speaking with Mr. Blasie and met with Planning and Zoning staff
to determine what the zoning would allow. It was the intent of the proposed purchaser
to install a fence around the property and to store automobiles. The issues with the
Respondent had been ongoing since February. However, since that time, the front yard
had been mowed and a portion of the fence was repaired.
Mr. Caliendo remarked his neighbor wanted to gut the house, make it into an office and
fence in the area. Since the neighbor performed body work, it was his desire to repair,
refurbish and sell cars. Mr. Caliendo was advised the property was not zoned for that
type of business.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Ms. Carroll
moved that this Board find that G. & Emily H. Caliendo are in violation of the City of

Case #10-399
Lillian V. Mayhew

Notice of Violation was dated February 5, 2010. The property was cited as it was
unsafe and unsanitary. It was necessary for the trash and debris to be removed from

case had been presented to the Board on April 21, 2010, and no one had appeared.
The Board had established a compliance date of May 21, 2010, or $200 per day. The
violation still existed, having 25 days of non-compliance. Officer Pierre provided
photographs for the Board's review.
Lillian Mayhew, 313 SE 21st Avenue, had painted the duplex and spent considerable
time working on the outside of her house. FEMA had provided hurricane shutters and
repaired the roof but did not provide enough money to repair the inner ceiling. The
police had visited the residence, advising the ceiling was in need of repair. Ms. Mayhew
asserted that while water remained from hurricane damage to the sheetrock and
ceiling, the ceiling did not leak. She agreed her house was "a mess" but contended it
was not unsafe or unsanitary. While she was handicapped and 84 years of age, she
cleaned every day. She owned four cats, but claimed cat feces were not present in the
home. The toilets and water functioned property, but the sprinkler system was in need
of repair. She requested six months to attend to the violations.

this date cleaning the front of the house and irrigating the lawn. Ms. Mayhew had

Costantino passed the gavel to Vice Chair Yerzy in order to make a motion.

Case #09-1881
Dushyant &
Jashminiben Patel
930 Chapel Hill Blvd.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, advised the initial lien reduction hearing
was held on May 17, 2010. At that time, City Attorney James Cherof had determined
there was not enough evidence before the Board to move forward. Kenny Patel had
appeared on behalf of his brother, the Respondent, and the case had been tabled to
June 16, 2010. Mike Biddelman, of Boynton Beach Realty, and Daniel Dugger, the
Boynton Beach Police Officer currently negotiating the purchase of the property, were
present. As previously commented, Mr. Blasie did not believe Bank of America should
be a party to the action as the Respondent had created the violation and the Bank
brought the property into compliance.
Kenny Patel, 214 East Ocean Avenue, advised the property was being maintained
regularly, and a landscaper had been cutting the grass every two weeks. The
Respondent had not been aware of the violation as the notice had been sent to the
property, which was vacant, and the Respondent had not been to the property in some
time. The locks on the house had been changed by Bank of America and as such, the
Respondent believed the Bank was responsible for the property. However, once the
Respondent was made aware of the violation, he remedied the situation. Kenny Patel
requested the lien be removed from the property in order to proceed with the sale, as it
was the Bank's intent to foreclose on the property on June 26, 2010. The Respondent
would not be realizing any proceeds from the "upside down" sale of the property. Short
sales were also anticipated for other properties owned by the Respondent, and if the
liens were not removed, the sales could not go forward. The Respondent's "homestead"
would also be sold in approximately ten days.
Kenny Patel indicated the Respondent had no funds to pay the lien currently in the
amount of $24,634.12. It was noted the City's lien had nothing to do with the
foreclosure of the property, and satisfaction of the lien would be the responsibility of

the Respondent. In order to bring the property as close to compliance as possible,
Kenny Patel had previously paid an outstanding water bill of $1,040, $398 for the initial
cutting of the grass and an additional $75 every two weeks thereafter. The taxes on
the property had been paid to date.
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Dugger, 705 Villa Circle, proposed purchasers of the property,
were present and advised it was their intent to reside at the residence.
Michael Biddelman, 77 Sausalito Drive, advised he represented Mr. Patel, the
Respondent, in a number of short sales including the primary residence, and if the lien
was not removed from the property, the sale could not go forward and the Bank would
foreclose on the property.
