Meeting Minutes
Code Lien Reduction
Boynton Beach, FL March 19, 2012
On March 22, they met Officer Roy on the premises so he could show them what
needed to be addressed on the property.
Mr. Howell explained they could not attend the lien hearing until all the violations were
corrected. Most of them were corrected except for the driveway due to the issue with
the vendor and the new City procedures. Ms. Springer distributed photographs of the
property taken in December 2011. Mr. Howell pointed out there was a three to four
week time period when the original buyer was going to purchase the property, assume
the Code violations to bring the property into compliance and do the lien reduction, but
they backed out.
Discussion followed about an appropriate fine amount and the pool, Mr. Howell noted
when the Bank took possession of the home in October 2010, they immediately made
sure there were no security issues. He did not know of the legal ramifications for the
Bank to address it when the prior owner was there. The Board members noted;
however, there was a hole in the wooden fence and a hole in the other fence. After
discussion, a total fine of $30,000 for the two cases was agreed on.
