Re: 309 NE 6`h Street and 302 NE 7`h Street
Dear Property Owner:
This letter is in reference to the Code Enforcement Board Order/Lien dated May 8, 2018
imposing a fifteen dollar per day fine beginning May 30, 2018 for overgrown grass, yard debris
and a damaged shed on property listed above.
On July 2, 2018 the Lien was recorded in Okeechobee County. The fine has now accrued for over
ninety (90) days and is continuing to accrue daily. According to Chapter 162 of the Florida
Statutes the City possesses the ability to file a foreclosure action against the property to collect
the fine.
At this time no foreclosure action has been taken against the property. However, you should
contact me immediately in order to bring the property into compliance with City ordinances
and stop the fine from accruing. The next regularly scheduled Code Enforcement Board meeting
is November 13, 2018 at which time the Code Board could decide to recommend foreclosure.
Please contact me at 863-467-1586 to discuss this matter.
Sincerely,
Sterling

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