Order? Do you know what that means?

Corp and I do commercial fishing and I've been parking my boat in
the front yard and taking it out every night to fish, coming back and
leaving it in the front yard and I guess I've been, I've been cited. I
have been cited before saying to move it and now I've moved it into
my driveway and I haven't been cited there so. Um yes, it's been
out front.

Chair Costantino: It's in compliance?
Office Guillaume: Yes Ma'am.
Mikylo Senkowicz: That's fine with me too. I can leave it there.
Chair Costantino: Okay. So he's asking for us to give a Cease and Desist Order that
any time that they go past the property and that is not parked
properly, where you have it parked currently, that you will be fined.
Do you understand that?
Mikylo Senkowicz: Yes ma'am.
Mr. Foot: Where he is repairing the boat?
Chair Costantino: Well I think he's more - Luney, you are more concerned about the
parking than the repair, correct?
Officer Guillaume: The parking and the repairs.
Chair Costantino: And repairs?
Officer Guillaume: Yeah, but --
Chair Costantino: Well cuz, the Cease and Desist is for the actual parking.

September 19, 2012, Code Compliance Board Meeting
Chair Costantino: Sure. Ms. Yerzy?
Ms. Yerzy: If it's his own boat, why is he not allowed to make some kind of
corrections to it, some kind of repairs to it?
Chair Costantino: I imagine it's kind of like cars, it's gonna be a limited type of repair.
If he, if he's pulling out a motor, that can't be done. If he's replacing
a, doing a patch of fiberglass maybe that's allowed. I'm not familiar
with that section of the Code as far as what can and what can't be
done as far as boat repair. It's all - -
(Inaudible)
Chair Costantino: Come and speak so it's recorded so we all know.
Officer Roy: No. The parking he was talking about, he's in the street when he's
doing that.
Chair Costantino: We understand that.
Officer Roy: Okay so. It's not - - he's saying his yard, but it's in the front, it's in
the street and as far as repairs on the boat, no, you can't grind, you
can't sand, you can't spray paint any of that.
Chair Costantino: But as far as the outboard motor he could do - -
Officer Roy: He can, yeah, he can take the cowling off the motor and tune it up,
that's not a problem.
Chair Costantino: Change spark plugs, etcetera.
Officer Roy: Yup.
Chair Costantino: Okay.
Ms. Yerzy: Thank you.
Chair Costantino: Alright, we're all clear now. Kathleen?
Ms. Carroll: Based on testimony and evidence presented in the aforementioned
case, I move that a Cease and Desist Order be issued giving Amy
and Michael Senkowicz until September 29, 2012, to bring the
violations of the City of Boynton Beach Code Sections as cited into
compliance. The Board has considered the gravity of the violations,
the actions taken by the Respondents and any previously violations
