on November 15, 2011. Certified mail was sent November 30, 2011. The receipt of

Tax Receipt needed to rent residence. Mow,
weed and trim property. Remove trash and
debris. Replace water meter and have water
turned on.
Vestiguerne Pierre, Senior Code Compliance Officer, presented the case for the
violations noted above. The only remaining violation was the permit for the carport
enclosure.
Paul Minoff, Attorney for the Bank, 101 NE 1st Street, Suite 1500, Ft. Lauderdale, pled
not guilty. He stated the Bank did not create the issues, but was remediating them and
had bids for the work. The property was set to go to sale. The violations occurred in
2010 before taking ownership of the property in July 2011. He testified the Bank
learned of the violations after November 2011, when they were receiving notices.
Previous notices went to the prior owner. He stated they had corrected the violations
and the Bank recently obtained a contractor to address the remaining violation, but did
not know how long it would take to correct it, demolish it, or how long it would take the
City to issue permits. He thought 45 days would be appropriate. The buyer would
accept the structure as was and planned to resell the property.
Mr. Foot suggested the Respondent plead no contest and the Board consider 45 days
unless staff advised 45 days was not long enough to obtain a permit for an as-built
property.
Attorney Minoff stated the structure was the illegal carport. The Bank was the lien
holder who foreclosed and took ownership of the property “as is” in July. There was
someone living at the premises, although the structure was now vacant, and the Bank
had no way to know who did the work and whether a permit was obtained. He clarified
the structure was there and either the prior owner, or owner prior to that constructed
it. The buyer’s preference was to keep the structure enclosed as it would increase the
value of the property. If not, the structure could be converted back to its original state.
Officer Pierre had photographs he distributed to the Board.
Motion
Based on the testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned case, Mr. Foot
moved that this Board find that Deutsche Bank National Trust 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 February 4, 2012. 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 February
4, 2012, plus administrative costs shall be imposed. The Respondent is further ordered

more time, the Board could table or reconsider the case.

Skip Lewis, Senior Code Compliance Officer, presented the case which arose from a
citizen complaint. The initial inspection date was on October 7, 2011, as noted above.
Written notice was sent giving 15 days to comply. Service was obtained by posting on
December 5, 2011, and staff recommended 30 days be given to correct the violations.
Mr. Augustin, the son of Rome and Valcina Augustin, 812 N. Federal Highway, pled no
contest and requested 60 to 90 days to correct the violations. Officer Lewis had
photographs he distributed to the Board. When asked why so much time, Mr. Augustin
stated the pump for the water was stolen and the sign was replaced after the last
hurricane at a cost of almost $5,000. The way his parent’s business was going, 30 days
was not long enough. They would have to obtain prices from various companies and
save the money to make the repairs. His parents owned the building for 16 years.

Yerzy moved that this Board find that Rome and Valcina B. Augustin are in violation of

the water pump was stolen.

2012. Mr. Foot seconded the motion that passed 7-1 (Mr. Cole dissenting.)
Case No. 11-2955 Emigrant Funding Corp. (717 NE 10th

Property that is vacant or subject to a current
notice of default must be registered with the
City and maintained per City Code. Mow and
trim property. Remove trash and debris.
Business Tax Receipt required to rent unit.
Officer Lewis presented the case. The initial inspection date was October 25, 2011,
pertaining to the violations noted above. The only outstanding violation was the
Business Tax Receipt and a representative from Emigrant Funding Corporation was
present. The building was a two-story apartment building and the owner did not have
a Business Tax Receipt since 2009. It was not renewed and the owner was collecting
rent.
Joy Mattingly, Esq., Becker & Polikoff, 3111 Stirling Road, Ft. Lauderdale, Attorney for
Emigrant Funding Corporation, did not enter a plea because they did not yet own the
property. Emigrant Funding Corporation brought all the violations into compliance
except the Business Tax Receipt and she was present to ensure Emigrant’s interests
were protected. She stated they could not address the Business Tax Receipt since the
property was not vacant.
Officer Lewis testified the property was not vacant. He stated he spoke with the owner
and explained the matter and was told he had to meet with his accountant. The owner
was collecting rent and losing the property. The property had eight units and Code
Compliance was not notified whether the property passed fire inspections. After further
discussion, Attorney Bridgeman stated the Bank should not have been cited for the

Officer Lewis presented the case. The notice of violation was June 6, 2011, for
violations regarding mowing and weeding overgrown yard area, removal of a dead
Mango tree, and trash and debris. Damaged exterior walls of the structure needed
repairs, the garage door needed to be replaced, and the structure needed to be
secured. The compliance date established by the Board was September 19, 2011, or a
fine of $250 per day would be imposed. The violation still exists. Another
representative from the Bank was present and the case was tabled at that time, but the
siding of the house remained outstanding.
Amy Concilio, Esq. Shapiro, Fishman and Gache, 2424 N. Federal Highway, Boca
Raton, Attorney for the Bank, testified the Bank was not the owner and that the owner
resided at the property. At the last hearing, the Bank representative explained they
were attempting to obtain an Order allowing them to enter the property. The owner
engaged litigious counsel and the foreclosure action has been ongoing for two years as
the owner was attempting to save the home. The Bank just obtained the order from
the court, but there have been many issues with the property owner’s counsel and the
borrower.
Vice Chair Yerzy noted the wrong party was named as the Respondent. Attorney
Concilio stated the Bank was not the owner of many of the cases, but they are noticed
while the foreclosure action was pending. Officer Lewis stated the property was vacant,
but the owner told him he had been returning to the home and taking care of it. After
further discussion about the exterior of the property, Attorney Bridgeman recommended
tabling the case. Officer Lewis commented the Board could comply the case with no
fine. The Bank was only required to maintain the property, which was being done.
Mr. Foot suggested tabling the case to February. Officer Lewis distributed photographs
to the Board.
