Ordinances/Lien Foreclosure Cases -- City Attorney Update
This is to provide you with an update of code enforcement and related matters which the City Attorney's
office is working on.
Ordinances:
The code enforcement ordinance is being updated to, among other things, reflect that the City has a
magistrate process rather than a code enforcement board and increasing the administrative fee. The
updated ordinance will be presented for final reading at the City Council meeting on May 18, 2021. The
updated ordinance will ensure that the City's code is consistent with the authority provided by Florida
statutes. The revised ordinance will include the changes requested by City Council following the first
reading. I will be scheduling individual briefings with each of you to go over this ordinance before it is
presented to you for adoption.
Lien Foreclosure Cases:
502 S.E. 10th Avenue (City of Okeechobee v. Cappetta): this is a lien foreclosure case wherein, per
direction from City Council, we filed the Complaint on October 30, 2020. We proceeded expeditiously
and filed our Motion for Default Final Judgment on January 1, 2021 which was granted on February 17,
2021. The property was auctioned off on April 14, 2021. We are awaiting the Certificate of Title to
determine who the new record owner is. The property is subject to existing tax lien certificates so it is
possible that the property will have a new owner when the Tax Collector sets the tax lien certificate
sale.
914 NW 2"d Street (City of Okeechobee v. Rodriguez): this was a lien foreclosure case wherein, per
direction from City Council, we filed the Complaint on November 2, 2020. The matter was resolved via
a Settlement Agreement entered into in February 2021. Therein, the Plaintiff agreed to pay the majority
of the fines and all of the attorney's fees and costs. The Plaintiff further brought the property fully into
compliance with the City's Code of Ordinances. We filed a Notice of Dismissal on March 10, 2021.
900 SW 2"d Avenue (City of Okeechobee v. Kemp): this is a lien foreclosure case wherein the City's
prior attorney filed the Complaint on September 19, 2021. Upon being retained, we proceeded
expeditiously and filed our Motion for Default Final Judgment on November 5, 2020 which was granted
on December 11, 2021. The property was auctioned off on April 14, 2021. We are awaiting the
Certificate of Title to determine who the new record owner is. The property is subject to existing tax
lien certificates so it is possible that the property will have a new owner when the Tax Collector sets
the tax lien certificate sale.
1905 S. Parrott Avenue (City of Okeechobee v. Brantley): this is a post-judgment matter we inherited
from prior counsel. At the direction of City Council we procured an Order of Contempt against Brantley
on September 21, 2020. As Brantley did not pay, we procured a monetary Judgment in the sum of
$16,047.50 on November 19, 2020. In an effort to collect on the Judgment, we have set the matter for
a Sheriff's Levy Sale. The Brantley's have offered to pay the Judgment in full and pay for all post-
judgment attorney's fees and costs.
102 SW 14t" Street (City of Okeechobee v. South Florida Barbeque): this was a lien foreclosure
case wherein, per direction from City Council, we filed the Complaint on December 18, 2020. The
hearing on our Motion for Default Final Judgment was held on March 16, 2021. The Judge granted the
Motion and the property will be sold at auction on June 7, 2021. We will receive the order shortly.
100 N. Park Street (Walgreens): This settlement proposal is on the City Council meeting for
consideration on April 20, 2021.
1206 SW 5th Avenue (City of Okeechobee v. Mills): - City Council approved the settlement in this
case on April 6, 2021. This matter is now closed.
Other code enforcement activities:
As you've heard, there is a lack of formal training for the city's new code enforcement staff because of
a backlog created due to the pandemic. In its place, our office is continuing to work with staff to provide
training to staff concerning the legal and practical requirements of code enforcement, and documenting
cases. We are also working with them to update code enforcement forms, develop consistency, and
help streamline the process.
As always, should you have any questions or comments regarding code enforcement matters, please
do not hesitate to contact me or Carlyn Kowalsky.

without a Business Tax Receipt. A Statement of Violation/Notice of Hearing was

Hearing was sent out on June 29, 2020, for the cancellation of the July Hearing
due to illness; it was signed for by Amanda Markham. A third Statement of
Violation/Notice of Hearing was mailed July 16, 2020, for the August Hearing and
was signed for by Hailey M. This Case was found in violation on August 11, 2020.
A fine of $100.00 per day after 14 days proper notification and a$50.00
administrative fee was imposed. The property was inspected and found to be
non-compliant on August 19, 2020, and September 10� 2020. A Lien/Order was

A fourth Statement of Violation/Notice of Hearing was hand delivered on March
5, 2021 after several attempts to contact Mr. Rose. The property was brought into
compliance [insert date here], leaving an accrued fine of $14,600.00. The City
recommended a fifty-percent reduction plus a$50.00 administrative fee. Mr.
Rose requested that the Fine be reduced to $0.00, as he was unaware of the
violations until later in the Case. Based on the evidence provided, Special
Magistrate Azcona reserved ruling until the next day to review all evidence.
Special Magistrate Azcona's report concluded that the fifty-percent
reduction of the total fine was more than reasonable and fair under the facts
and circumstances presented, and such reduction is in the best interest of
the City of Okeechobee. All administrative fees previously assessed should
remain. The Respondent should arrange a payment plan to pay the fines
and fees within a reasonable time.

$9,920.00 which is a reduction from the original fine that was due. Due to no
response from the properly owner, a demand letter with an attached complaint
was sent. Mr. Mark Rouer, the Walgreens representative, agreed there was a

partner with the City and has brought the grounds into compliance. Based on the

Hello Joe
As we discussed yesterday, I am sending you information from the City's files in an effort to find out who was

We appreciate your efforts to resolve this outstanding case. My understanding is that the amounts pending

Dear Mr. Rieger,
I checked with the City and since there isn't an open Court case, you will need to go to the magistrate and the staff, on
appropriate terms, will recommend settlement.
Your contact that that is Carlyn Kowalsky, Esq. who is cc'ed to this email.

Code Enforcement Case Number: 17-040
Dear Mr. Dunn,
DIRECT DIAL:
(561) 471-3524
FAX NUMBER:
(561)982-7II6
As you aware are, Okeechobee Park Street, LLC owns real property located at 100 N.W. Park
Street, Okeechobee, Florida 34972 ("Property"). This correspondence is being sent to you
regarding the outstanding fine of $11,650.00 ("Fine") relative to the Property. As you are aware,
this Fine relates to violations that occurred from February 19, 2018 through October 10, 2018.
By way of background, the aforesaid violations were first observed on December 7, 2017. The
City of Okeechobee ("City") caused a Notice of Violation to be sent to you on the same day.
The Notice of Violation gave you ten (10) days to bring the Properiy into compliance with the
City's Code of Ordinances. You failed to bring the Property into compliance and thus, the
matter was presented to the Code Enforcement Board ("Board") in Case Number 17-040.
The Board found that the Property was in violation of Section 30-43 (Public Nuisance) and
section 30-44 (General Cleaning and Beautification) of the City's Code of Ordinances. The
Board provided you twenty-five (25) days to provide the City with a timetable relative to the
necessary maintenance and landscape improvements. The Board further stated that if this was
not complied with, a daily fine of $50.00 would be imposed. As you did not contact the City per
the Board's requirement, a daily fine of $50.00 began on February 19, 2018.
The City further sent you letters dated August 2, 2018 and August 30, 2018 notifying you that
the fines had accrued for more than 90 days and thus the City could proceed with a foreclosure
action. It was not until September 21, 2018 that the City's Code Enforcement received a letter
from a landscaper named William Sandritter which included a terse landscaping plan. It was not
until October 10, 2018 that the Property was finally in compliance with the City's Code of
Ordinances.

is not made within ten (10) days form the date of your receipt of this letter the City will have no
other option than to iile the enclosed Complaint and proceed with a foreclosure action. Please
contact this office at your first available convenience to discuss this matter.

Re: City of Okeechobee v. Okeechobee Park Street LLC
Code Enforcement Case Number: 17-040
Dear Property Owner,
As you aware are, Okeechobee Park Street, LLC owns real property located at 100 N. W. Park Street, Okeechobee,
Florida 34972 ("Property"). This correspondence is being sent to you regarding the outstanding fine of
$11,650.00 ("Fine") relative to the Property. As you are aware, this Fine relates to violations that occurred from
February 19, 2018 through October 10, 2018.
By way of background, the aforesaid violations were first observed on December 7, 2017. The City of
Okeechobee ("City") caused a Notice of Violation to be sent to you on the same day. The Notice of Violation
gave you ten (10) days to bring the Properiy into compliance with the City's Code of Ordinances. You failed to
bring the Property into compliance and thus, the matter was presented to the Code Enforcement Board ("Board")
in Case Number 17-040.
The Board found that the Property was in violation of Section 30-43 (Public Nuisance) and section 30-44 (General
Cleaning and Beautification) of the City's Code of Ordinances. The Board provided you twenty-five (25) days
to provide the City with a timetable relative to the necessary maintenance and landscape improvements. The
Boaxd further stated that if this was not complied with, a daily fine of $50.00 would be imposed. As you did not
contact the City per the Board's requirement, a daily fine of $50.00 began on February 19, 2018.
The City further sent you letters dated August 2, 2018 and August 30, 2018 notifying you that the fines had
accrued for more than 90 days and thus the City could proceed with a foreclosure action. It was not until
September 21, 2018 that the City's Code Enforcement received a letter from a landscaper named William
Sandritter which included a terse landscaping plan. It was not until October 10, 2018 that the Property was finally
in compliance with the City's Code of Ordinances.

Despite our subsequent communication(s) with you, you have still not paid the fines. If payment is not made by
, the City will have no other option than to proceed with a foreclosure action. Please contact this
office at your first available convenience to discuss this matter.

Subject: RE: Letter Walgreens
I like it. The only problem is Mr. Sandritter is the landscape company that they hired. He called and said he has noting to
do with Walgreens. Which I find crazy, he requested a fine reduction form. I went through the file multiple time until I
realized he is a landscaper. So we may need to keep him out of the letter???

Subject: Update on City code enforcement program
Dear City Council-
I am providing an update on the various code enforcement matters that have been approved by the
City Council for foreclosure, as well as those code enforcement matters which will be considered by
the City Council for foreclosure. The pending code enforcement matters are:
1. City of Okeechobee v, Brenda Kemp et. aL; 19th Judicial Circuit Case Number 2019 CA 253:
this is a foreclosure action resulting from the City's municipal lien/order. On October 30, 2020,
I emailed Fred Sterling an Affidavit of Default Amounts Due. Once I get that back, I will set the
Motion for Default Final Judgment for hearing. We intend to expedite this matter.
2. City of Okeechobee v. Gloria Rodriguez et al.; 19t'' Judicial Circuit Case Number not yet
assigned: this action will be a foreclosure of the City's municipal lien/order. We have finalized
the Complaint and intend to file it today, October 30, 2020. After the Defendants are served,
r
they have twenty days to file an Answer. If they do, we will serve discovery pleadings. If they
do not file an Answer, we will press forward with a Default Final Judgment.
3. City of Okeechobee v. Teresa Cappetta et al.; 19t" Judicial Circuit Case Number not yet
assigned: this action will be a foreclosure of the City's municipal lien/order. We have finalized
the Complaint and intend to file it today, October 30, 2020. After the Defendants are served,
they have twenty days to file an Answer. If they do, we will serve discovery pleadings. If they
do not file an Answer, we will press forward with a Default Final Judgment. I believe that Roy
Conerly, one of the Defendants, is dead and so I preemptively drafted the Motion to Appoint
Curator so that we could set up an estate for purposes of service of process.
4. City of Okeechobee v. Marvin W. Brantley; 19t" Judicial Circuit Case Number 47 2004 CA
000309: We successful in procuring an Order Finding Defendant in Contempt of Court on
September 21, 2020. The Court ordered Mr. Brantley to pay the City $6,297.50 as and for the
City's attorney's fees and $9,750.00 as and for the City's fines. Given that it is clear that he
will not pay those fees and fines, I emailed Fred Sterling the Affidavit required. Once we get
his Affidavit, we will submit same along with a proposed judgment. After the Court issues the
judgment, we will record it so it becomes a Judgment Lien. We will also submit it to the State
of Florida Secretary of State and get a Judgment Lien Certificate. Once that is done, we will
ask the Clerk to issue a Writ of Execution and we will provide that, along with the Judgment
Lien, the Judgment Lien Certificate and an Instructions for Levy form to the Okeechobee
County Sheriff. The sheriff will then auction Mr. Brantley's property off.
5. City of Okeechobee v. Barbara Mills; 19th Judicial Circuit Case Number 47 2004 CA 000309:
On October 28, 2020, we filed a Suggestion of Death and Motion for Substitution as the
Defendant is dead. The probate attorney agreed to enter into an Agreed Order and that was
provided to the Judge on October 29, 2020. Once that is entered, the Personal
Representative will be substituted in for the Defendant and he must file an Answer or a Default
will be entered against him. We likewise, as a creditor of the Estate, filed a Statement of Claim
in the Palm Beach County probate case on October 29, 2020. This property is purportedly
homestead but that loses the protection on January 1, 2020. Depending on how this matter
proceeds, we may need to file an Amended Complaint.
6. City of Okeechobee v. Crystal l, LLC; 19t" Judicial Circuit Case Number 2017 CA 218: We
are waiting for the City's approval to proceed with this matter. The City had initiated a
foreclosure case against the Defendant on September 15, 2017. On October 28, 2020 we filed
a Motion for Default Final Judgment seeking $32,562.50 inclusive of attorney's fees. The
Notice of Hearing was filed and the hearing is set for November 17, 2020. The proposed
Order has already been emailed to the Judge.
7. City of Okeechobee v. Okeechobee Park Street, LLC (Walgreens); Code Enforcement
Case Number 17-040: we have worked with City staff to draft a letter to the property owner
advising it that if the current accruing liens are not paid, a foreclosure action will be initiated.
Staff has not further advised of the status.
8. City of Okeechobee v. South Florida BBQ; 19t'' Judicial Circuit Case Number not yet
assigned: the 90 day letter was sent to the property owner on February 27, 2020. We are
waiting for the City's approval to proceed with foreclosure.
; �
9. City of Okeechobee v. Fortex Holdings, LLC; 19t'' Judicial Circuit Case Number not yet
assigned: the 90 day letter was sent to the property owner on March 2, 2020. We are waiting
for the City's approval to proceed with foreclosure.
As always, should you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me or
Carlyn Kowalsky.

This firm is proud to represent the City of Okeechobee ("City"). Pursuant to the City's request, I
am providing an update on the various code enforcement matters that have been approved by the
City Council for foreclosure as well as those code enforcement matters which will be considered

of Court on September 21, 2020. The Court ordered Mr. Brantley to pay the City
$6,297.50 for the City's attorney's fees and $9,750.00 for the City's fines. If Mr.
Brantley does not pay those funds within 45 days, we will engage in post judgment
collections and request the Court to impose a lien on the property that can be
subsequently foreclosed on. This is a great win for the City!
2. City of Okeechobee v. Brenda Kerrcp et. al.; 19`h Judicial Circuit Case Number 2019 CA
253: this is a foreclosure action resulting from the City's municipal lien/order. After
receipt of the file from the City's prior counsel, we determined that the Defendants had
not filed a responsive pleading to the Complaint and thus we intend to file a Motion for
Default Final Judgment. We have provided a copy of said Motion, together with the

Good Morning Mr. Sterling,
I spoke to the Program Manager for Walgreens in Chicago. He told me to take point on the matter
involving Walgreens and the City of Okeechobee.
Please send me the information they need to appeal the fines that are pending on Walgreens.
I will be sure you receive the information needed to move forward with this matter.
Thank you,
Bill

Case # 17-040/190917021
To Whom it May Concern,
We appreciate you bring your property into compliance, but this does not cancel the Code Enforcement Lien on the property
stated above. As you are aware at the January 2018 Code Enforcement Meeting, you were found in violation of Ch 30 Sec 30-
43 Public Nuisance and Ch 30 Sec 30-44 General Cleaning & Beautification. The Code Board imposed a fine of $50.00 a day.
The fines of $50.00 a day started on February 19, 2018 and ran until October 18, 2018 at that time you came into compliance.
The balance due on this property is $11,650.00. I would like to get this issue resolved and file a satisfadion of lien for this
property. This has run well over 90 days and I would like to give you a chance to make a payment before I start the
foreclosure process. You can also call us if you would like to come in front of the Special Magistrate for a fine reduction, and
we will get you on the next regular scheduled agenda. We meet every second Tuesday of the month.
You can make a payment at/or mail to the City Police Department at the above address, by a check or money order made
out to the City of Okeechobee. Or you can go to the Okeechobee City Hall and see Kim Barnes to make payment. Please
reference the above case number on the memo.
Sincerely,

Good morning Mr. Sterling,
Attached is a crude plan for the Walgreens landscaping re-vitalization.
I apologize for the crudeness of this drawing, but I tried very hard to get an L-1 for you, but no one could
locate that pian.
I have attached pictures and numbered them as to where we would install the material.
I am sure there will be questions. I am available anytime you need to speak with me about this. We are
ready to start installation once you give us permission.
Thank you,
Bill

Hi Sue,
Thanks for tracking me down! I was just about to email you my new email address. Thank you for the agenda.
Question, is there a reason Walgreens and CVS aren't on the agenda? As an old business item or anything?
Same question for 802 SW 2nd Avenue.

Code Enforcement
August 2, 2018
Okeechobee Park Street LLC (Walgreens)
Re: 100 NW Park Street, City of Okeechobee, Florida/code liens
After actual notice to the district manager and corporate offices of your store, and pursuant to
action of the code board for the City of Okeechobee at a public hearing on January 9, 2018 the board
found your establishment to be in violation of certain city codes related to landscaping/public nuisance.
As a result, a fine was imposed against you in the sum of $50.00 per day, until the violation(s) came into
compliance.
A lien was filed in the public records of the clerk of court for Okeechobee county, and may be
found at O.R. Book 804 Page 96 . The accrued fine to date totals $8,250.00, and the violations remain in
effect. The City has made personal contact with the store and/or district management on numerous
occasions regarding this lien, but it appears no one at the district or corporate office is willing to make
an effort to resolve the compliance issue.
Under Fla. Statutes ch. 162, if a lien remains unresolved in excess of 90 days, the city council
may recommend that a lien foreclosure be filed in the circuit court against the offending party. This time
period has now elapsed, but further action has not to date been presented to the city council for
consideration.
It may or may not be feasible for the City to file a foreclosure action, but it certainly would be
embarrassing to the company if this action were to occur. The City would much rather have the store
come into compliance with codes, as it would resolve the enforcement issue, and result in an aesthetic
improvement to the location.
At this time the City will postpone further action for a period of thirty (30) days to await a
response. You are advised that even if the violation(s) are resolved, the accrued monetary lien will
remain in effect until paid, or a corporate representative personally appears at a code board meeting to
request a fine reduction. Please contact our code officer Fred Sterling at (863) 467-1586 if you wish to
address these issues.
Thank You, , �

Okeechobee Park Street LLC. 100 NW Park Street
Ch 30 Sec 30-43 Public nuisance
Ch 30 Sec 30-44 General cleaning & beautification
JANUARY J. 201 S•CEB REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 3 OF 4
BOARD ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE
Officer Sterling testified no?ice of violatior/nolice oi hearing was sent via ceRiiied to the propery otivner's add;ess & received.
Officer Steriing said there were no official plans on file for Okeechobee Park Street LLC (Walgreens) because it was built before
the Land Development Regulations (LDR's) were established by the Ciiy. Therefore, the City has noihing to show what the
original landscaping requirements were for this business. Also, Mr. Steriing said after talking with the store manager he fo�nd
out the broken irrigation system had never been repaired. Officer Sterling said a lot of the vegetation is dead or very sparse.
Chairperson Gamiotea reatl part of the City Ordinance pertaining to General cleaning & beautification (Ch 30 Sec 30-44,
subsections b, f& g)"(b) Also, ail landscaping shall be trimmed and kept in a neat appearance so as not to adversely affect
the aesthetic appearance of the property and adjacent properties. (fl It shall be unlawful for any person to cause, maintain,
permit or allow to be caused, maintained or permitted ihe accumuiation of any litter, garbage, abandoned property, stagnant
water, untended vegetation or weeds on any construction or building site before, during or after completion of such construction
or building. (g) It shail be the responsibility of all owners of improved property to maintain proper ground cover on their property
(such ground cover including, but not limited io, grasses, concrete, asphalt tlecorative stones; in-laid brick, tile and shell rock)
to prevent a condition that could endanger the healih, safety and welfare of any member of the community; maintained as
required in this section. Furthermore, appropriate landscaping shall be installed, replaced and maintained, in living condition,
so as not to adversely affect the aesthetic appearance of the property and adjacent properties." Chairperson Gamioiea said
this ordinance will allow City staff to specify to property owner �vhat has to be done for property to be in compiiance.
Member Close moved to find Case 17•040, Okeechobee Park Street LLC,100 NW Park Street, in violation of Ch 30 Sec
30•43 Public nuisance and Sec 30-44 General cleaning & beautification, based on the testimony of Code Officer
Sterling, recommending a copy of City Ordinance Ch 30 Sec 30•44 including subsections (f) and �g} be sent to
Okeechobee Park Street LLC allowing twenty five days from receipt of proper notification to contact City Staff with a
timetable stating their intentions for landscape improvements and maintenance, if the City has not received a specific
timetable for the work to be done by the end of the twentyfive day period a fine of fifty dollars per day wiil be imposed;
seconded by Member Pippin.

the Code Enforcement Board may increase the fine up to $500.00 per day. In addition to fines, the amount of the lien may
