the amount of $3,450. Staff recommended 10 days be given to comply.
Catherine Mohommad, 127 S. Kaye St. Lake Worth, owner of Katies Kids Learning
Center, pled not guilty.
Ms. Richardson explained there are three free alarms per year starting October 1 st.
They had a total of eight alarms since then with an excess of five.
It was explained if the alarm was working properly, it was not a false alarm. Ms.
Mohammad explained the alarm sounded when neighborhood kids shoot BB guns,
shooting out windows in her vehicle and windows. She had pictures. When the Police
came on previous occasions, she was advised there was nothing they can do. At one
point, she was replacing bus windows every week
Mr. LaRock inquired if she kept track of the expenses. Ms. Mohammad had
photographs. If kids shoot at the windows and the alarm has a glass sensor, it is not a
false alarm. The dates of the false alarms were December 3, 2010, December 8, 2010.
two alarms on December 16, 2011 and the last on February 23, 2011.

Charles Jackson, 303 NW 1 st Avenue, testified he visits his girlfriend across the street
and he smokes outside. He sees four to six kids. One night he saw one throwing gravel
at the building and buses. He ran them off the property, but now they throw stones at
his truck and boat. There is a park there where kids get high. It is a bad neighborhood.
Jennifer Snow, 5117 Cheryl Lane, West Palm Beach, called the non-emergency
number for these instances. Dispatch did not send anyone. Only once did the Police
come when one of the neighborhood youth was being chased down the street. It was
not an issue for the Police.
Ms. Mohammad explained on those occasions, it was kids throwing things and shooting
a BB gun through the window. When a call comes in at two in the morning, she was not
going to respond. She has three other centers. One officer came out about the bus,
but advised nothing could be done. She inquired what should she do.
Ms. Richardson had reports from the dates. One report explained the alarm was set off
accidentally by an employee. Another was from a hall motion detector. None included
anything about a window, they all pertained to a front door, hall motion or accidental
alarm. Ms. Richardson testified most of the alarms occurred between midnight and 6:00
a.m. in the morning. The one at 6:00 a.m. occurred on February 23, 2011 and was
accidental. The alarm could have been shut off by the employee. The other incidents
occurred at 2:10 a.m. on December 3, 2010; at 12:13 a.m. on December 8, 2010; at
3:39 a.m. and 4:20 a.m. on December 16, 2010; and at 6:31 a.m. on February 23,2011.
Mr. Foot understood the concern, coming out in the middle of the night, but the fine was
$3,450. He commented that equated to $700 per fine. When the Police call and say
they were out and no one is there when they arrive, there is no reason for Ms.
Mohammed to go because there is no one there. The alarm company said nothing was
wrong. One night Ms. Mohammed had to go home and another employee closed for
her. The next day when an employee goes to open, the alarm goes off because some
employees do not know the Code. At one point, she stopped using the alarm.
Mr. Jackson requested mercy on the Respondent's behalf.
Diane Springer, Code Compliance Coordinator, explained, based on the incident
reports, they are considered false alarms. The Board should not determine if they are
false alarms. They should only make a finding if they are guilty of not paying the fine.
Staff already determined they were false alarms. It was acknowledged, however, that
there are occasions when additional facts and documentation could be presented.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Mr.
LaRock moved that this Board find that Katies Kids is in violation of the City of Boynton
Beach Code sections cited and moved to Order that the Respondent correct the

being dumped. He wanted to talk to the Board about it, but was advised the meetings
were only for those who were non-compliant. Accordingly, he did not comply in order to
address the Board. He indicated there is 350 feet on his side of the street that is a
vacant lot that is not his lot. They have no problem with that lot as it is City-owned
property. On his 50-foot lot, it is dumped on. The property is not fenced. Someone
knows who was dumping. Right now there are tires on the property line. Half were on
his property and half on the City's. He only wanted assistance in getting rid of the tires.

evicted. By law, Mr. Call can not remove the contents from the front. He has a valid
permit for the roof and was in the process of fixing the roof. He was expecting a tax
return, but it is financially tough and he requested leniency. Mr. Call had the eviction
papers on his person and reiterated he cannot legally remove the items from the front
yard, but as soon as he receives the notice from the Sheriff Department on the door, he
will get a tow truck and remove them.

Instead of putting up a sign, they freshened an existing mural with three letters and
three dots. In their opinion, it was not a sign. They spoke with Scott Blasie, Code
Compliance Administrator, and requested meetings with Mike Rumpf. Mr. Rumpf was
unable to get back with him and was working to meet him. They were taking the next
step and going to the Building Board of Adjustments and Appeals. He requested this be
tabled until then. Mr. Gaudio added the last issue there was with Mega Mini was
successfully defended before the City Commission. He was not aware of the hearing
date for the next meeting.
Officer Lewis explained wall signs are not allowed and Mr. Gaudio was aware of that
before the other violation occurred. He could have put a sign up with letters and the
same wording as was there with a permit and he could have painted over what was
there and been in compliance. Mr. Gaudio opined it was a mural and the City says it's a
sign. He explained a commercial sign has elements that make it a sign, such as a
phone number, name of business, and a combination of factors. A mural does not. Mr.
Gaudio contended the subject painting does not meet the criteria of a sign.
Mr. Foot inquired if Mr. Gaudio considered it an advertisement.

April 20, 2011
Mr. Blasie was put under oath and reviewed the Code. The definition of a sign was any
"letter, figure, character, mark, plain point, marquee sign, design, poster, pictorial,
picture, banner, stroke, stripe, line, trademark or reading material which shall be
constructed placed, attached, painted, erected, fastened, manufactured or displayed in
any matter whatsoever for the purpose of informing or advertising about the nature, type
or quality or goods, services or activities available; or to advertise the name of any firm,
corporation business or any other enterprise or its nature, type or quality of goods
services or activities; or to attract to or identify any of the aforementioned or by its
nature, act to draw attention to a business." He was unsure it was an appealable issue
for the Building Board of Adjustment and Appeals.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Ms.
Carroll moved that this Board find that the Respondent has not complied with this
Board's Order dated March 16, 2011, and having considered the gravity of the violation,
the actions taken by the Respondent, that this Board impose and certify a fine in the
amount of $150 per day plus administrative costs which shall continue to accrue until
the Respondent comes into compliance or until a judgment is entered based upon this
certification of fine. Mr. LaRock seconded the motion that unanimously passed.
Case No. 11-401
Mega Mini Co.
2951 S. Congress Avenue
Officer Lewis reviewed the details of the violation. The date of the Notice of Violation
was February 14, 2011 to secure a permit for a new real estate sign placed on vacant
property. The subject property was a vacant lot adjacent to the Respondent's other
property. The hearing was March 16, 2011, no one appeared. The compliance date
was March 25, 2011. The violation still exists.
Robert Gaudio, 301 Isle of Capri Drive, Ft. Lauderdale, testified they applied for a
permit for a much larger sign to replace an existing sign. The permit was denied. When
the permit for the new sign was denied, he repainted the existing sign on the property.
Then he was cited for a violation for a sign that was there at least 10 years. Mr. Gaudio
went to the Planning Department and learned staff could not find a permit ever pulled
for the sign, and he tried multiple times to meet with Mike Rumpf. The issue with not
allowing the sign permit was the property was owned for the last 30 years by the same
business adjacent to the property. They cannot do a unity of title and they are
requesting it be tabled until they appeal the issue.
Mr. Blasie explained Article 2, Chapter 21 of the Land Development Regulations
provides for a variance process that is done strictly through the City Commission, not
the Building Board of Adjustments and Appeals process. Only three conditions for a
variance exist which are: a decrease of setback, a height exception, or the number of
signs. No variances may be granted to signs expressly prohibited by this Chapter. He

explained if Mr. Gaudio was looking for a Board of Adjustments, it should go to the City
Commission.
Mr. Foot recalled the Ordinance, in the past, provides that a sign must have on it the
number for the permit. Mr. Foot's wife had a sign in the past. It is the applicant's
responsibility to come back with the paperwork to show that a permit was issued. If they
do not have it on the sign, they were not in compliance.
Officer Lewis agreed the Respondent could have easily complied by taking it down, but
they refused. The violation was a complaint by a neighbor. The sign could have been
removed in five minutes. The options were to obtain a permit or remove the sign. Mr.
Gaudio applied for a permit and each time it was denied. Chair Costantino suggested
then that should signify the sign had to come down. Mr. Gaudio contended these are
extremely trying times. The sign was up for at least 12 years. Mr. Gaudio commented
when the issue came up they were in the economic downturn.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Vice Chair

Boynton Beach, FL
April 20, 2011
Officer Webb reviewed the details of the case as contained in the Notice of Violation.
Staff recommended a compliance date of April 30,2011.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Mr.
LaRock moved that this Board find that HSBC Bank USA (120 NW 4th Avenue) 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 April 30, 2011. The Board has considered
the gravity of the violation, 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 $100 per day for each day the violation continues
past April 30, 2011 plus 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. Ms.
Carroll seconded the motion that unanimously passed.
Attorney Bridgeman researched a question posed by Mr. Foot earlier in the meeting
having to do with the Lien Penalty Certification, Iglad Noreulus case, whether he could
have the vehicle on the property with no insurance. Attorney Bridgeman explained a
vehicle cannot be on private property for more than 30 days without it being properly
registered. Since it was not insured, which he testified to and it was well over 30 days,
then the registration is invalid. Mr. Foot had been advised of her findings and the
actions taken by the Board were appropriate.
