Code Compliance Hearings
Boynton Beach, Florida January 21, 2015
Iglad Naurelus, SW 5'1' Avenue, produced his ATT bill. Ms. Ellis noted the violation
was at 216 SW Stn Avenue, The Property Appraiser's website also showed the subject
property was not homesteaded. Mr, Naurelus did not know why it was not. He did not
change his driver's license, but asserted he lives at the premises.
Based on the evidence and that there was sufficient time to address the matter, Ms.
Ellis certified the fine. She commented there was a fine imposed on the property and
he had one more opportunity to remove the lien. It was not a matter of changing his
license; he had to live at the premises.
Officer Shickles explained Mr. Naurelus has not contacted him since the hearing, When
he posted the property months ago, a woman there stated she was renting.
Case No. 09-2813 Alex Rivera & Christy Carone 1814 Meadows Circle W.
Diane Springer, Code Compliance Coordinator, advised the Notice of Violation was
sent on August 27, 2009, regarding a Business Tax Receipt. The case was heard on
November 18, 2009, and no one appeared. The compliance date set by the Board was
December 18, 2009, or a fine of $100 would be imposed thereafter. Compliance was
confirmed on November 24, 2014, having a fine of $180,100 and administrative costs of
$634,12.
Ms. Springer was contacted in November and staff confirmed the property was vacant.
There was an outstanding water bill of $168.91 that had to be paid. All else was in
compliance,
Juan Robles, Realtor with Century 219 and representative of the owner, explained the
property was foreclosed by Deutsch Bank National Trust Company in August 2013.
The property was sold at auction, and Deutsch Bank assured the owner there were no
liens, and the owner made the purchase. The new owner already paid hefty fines from
the Homeowner's Association. She decided to sell the property because she could not
maintain it and the HOA fees and learned of the liens. He commented the owner was
taking a loss. He requested the fines be waived, but was aware she would have to pay
administrative fees to the City.
Ms. Ellis reduced the lien to $1,500 plus the administrative fees of $634.12.
