Dear Colin,
DIRECT DIAL:
(561) 471-3524
FAX NUMBER:
(561) 982-7116
As you are aware, this firm represents the City of Okeechobee ("Okeechobee") in the above
noted matter. VVe provided you with a template of a settlement agreement on January 29, 2021
but have not received any further communications from you.
We have spokeri with City staff regarding your client's offer of $5,000.00 to resolve the case.
City staff are unlikely to recommend City Council approve that. However, City Staff is willing
to recommend approval of payment of '/2 of the lien amount plus attorney's fees and costs
expended.
The fines began accruing on June 25, 2019 and had a daily fine of $25.00. Thus, half of the
amount as of th� date of this letter is $7,362.50. The attorney's fees and costs of $3,993.25.
Thus, the total a�mount would be $11,355.74. Please let me know your clients' response at your
earliest possible convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.
Many Thanks,

Dear Fred,
Per your request, the attorney's fees and costs are $3,438.19. However, some work will be involved in dismissing the case etc. So I
would assume that the total will be around $4,000 or less.
Thanks,
Greg

TIMELINE:
Permit has been pulled. Contractor says he will have the buildings removed by the end of November, 2020 — i.e., within 6 days....
I have the Reduction requ��st form in hand, signed by Raul Rodriguez, and ready to file with the City when the buildings are removed
and Fred Stirling (the Code Enforcement Officer) confirms removal, and that the property is in compliance.
Incidentally, Fred Stirling has been a client of this office. We did a will for him and Jan (his wife) a few years ago. Okeechobee is a
small town.

Thank you for the email. "ou are correct in terms of service. Will you accept service on their behalf? If Ms. Rodriguez is in a nursing

Mr. Hyden:
Looking at the Clerk's docN:et sheet online, it appears you have service only on Noe, thus far. His response is due on 11/24/20 (next
Tuesday). Raul lives hereiri Okeechobee and has not been served yet. Gloria is, I understand, presently in a nursing home.
We expect the demolition to be completed before the end of this month possibly. Client has spoken to the City Code Officer about
mitigation, and they expect to have it before the Code Board or City Commission for reduction shortly after completion.
Can we have an extension� of time, until end of January, 2021, in which to file an Answer on behalf of all defendants, if not resolved
before then?
I could file a response to the discovery requests at the same time, if necessary.
Please review with your client and advise.

Dear Colin,
i will forward your settlem �nt offer to my client now. As soon as I have a substantive response from my client, i will let you know.
Yes, a County Court can pr��ceed with a foreclosure. In my experience, most condominium lien foreclosures remain in County Court
due to the jurisdictionai monetary limits for example. A municipal code enforcement lien foreclosure isn't like a tax deed sale where a
new chain of title is create��. Rather, a new purchaser takes title with the existing liens (assuming there are superior liens) still
attached to the property. In other words, the title may still be clouded.
Thanks,
Greg

Mr. Hyden:
Please see attached settlement proposal for the above case. Please review with your client and advise.
Curiosity question: I known jurisdictional limits are what they are, but, Fla. Stat. §26.012(2)(g) says circuit courts have "exclusive
original jurisdiction" over "all actions involving the title and boundaries of real property." Emphasis added. Your law suit seeks to
foreclose a CEB lien and "t:hat the property be sold at auction to satisfy the City's claim". Doesn't that necessarily involve title to real
property? Can the County Court order a sale of the property without involving the title to the property?

Dear Fred,
Karen forwarded me your voicemail. I pulled the bills and it looks like the total amount billed and unbilled is $3,206.49.
There may be some costs that have not come in yet like process server fees etc. So I think a safe bet is about $3500 for
attorney's fees and cos�ts total or so if they settle today.

Dear Mr. Hyden:
I have the pleasure of representing Gloria, Raul ("Rudy") and Noe Rodriguez in
connection v��ith the above foreclosure of a code enforcement lien.
The Rodriguez's had made arrangements to have the two buildings (the offending
single family home, and the shed) demolished. A copy of the contract proposal and
the permit (already issued, # 20-11-415) are attached. Estimated cnst to complete
is $2,400.00.
We propose to complete the removal of the buildings and Co cure of the code
violations within thirty (30) days.
The lien is 9�11,575.00 pursuant to your complaint (pai-a. 16). We request a
reduction of t:his fine, and propose to pay the total sum of $3,500.00 for ttle accrued
lien, and the court costs and attorney's fees incurred to date.
We would pr��fer to not have to file an appearance or other papers or pleadings in
the civil actic�n to ]ceep everyone's costs and legal fees to a minimum.
Please revievv this with the City of Olceechobee and advise us.
Sincerely yours,
C LIN M. CAtvIERON

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 forecic►sure, 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 Okeechiobee v. Brenda Kemp et, al.; 19t" Judicial Circuit Case Number 2019 CA 253:
this is a foreclo:�ure action resulting from the City's municipal lien/order. On October 30, 2020,
I emailed Fred :3terling 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 Okeech�obee 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,
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; 19t'' 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 initi�ated 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; 19th 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 Okeecl'�obee v. Fortex Holdings, LLC; 19t" Judicial Circuit Case Number not yet
assigned: the 9�0 day letter was sent to the property owner on March 2, 2020. We are waiting
for the City's aK>proval to proceed with foreclosure.
As always, should you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me or

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
by the City Council for foreclosure. The pending code enforcement matters are:
Pendin� in Circuit Court
City of Okeechobee v. Marvin W. Brantley; 19�h Judicial Circuit Case Number 47 2004
CA 00031�9: We were 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� 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 Oiceechobee v. Brenda Kemp et. al.; 19`" 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 �i responsive pleading to the Complaint and thus we intend to file a Motion for
Default F:inal Judgment. We have provided a copy of said Motion, together with the

COMPLAINT
COMES NOW, Plaintiff, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, FLORIDA ("Plaintiff' or "City"),
by and through undersigned counsel, and brings this action for foreclosure against the Defendants,
GLORIA RODRIGUEZ, RAUL RODRIGUEZ, and NOE RODRIGUEZ (collectively
"Defendants") arid in support thereof states:
Venue and Jurisdiction
1. Tl1is is an action to foreclosure a lien on the Defendants' real property located
within Okeechob�ee County, Florida.
2. This Court has original jurisdiction over this action because the City's lien and
related damages �do not exceed the sum of $30,000 exclusive of costs.
3. Venue is proper in the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit because the property in question
is located in Oke��chobee County, more specifically, Okeechobee, Florida.
3. The Defendants' own real property located at 914 NW 2°d Street, Okeechobee,
Florida 32643-64�03 and legally described as follows:
Lot 17 a�nd the East'/Z of Lot 16, Block 132, Town of Okeechobee, according to
the plat thereof recorded in Plat Book 2, page 17, Public Records of
Okeecho�bee County, Florida.
Subject �to all restrictions, limitations and covenants running with the title to
the property. Subject property is the homestead of the Grantor.
("Properly"). A true and correct copy of the Warranty Deed is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and
incorporated by �reference herein.
4. The Property is not homestead property and not otherwise exempt under Article X,
Section 4(a) of the Florida Constitution. A true and correct copy of the applicable 2019 Notice of
Ad Valorem Taxes & Non-Ad Valorum Assessments is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and
incorparated by ��eference herein.
5. P�ursuant to Florida Statute Chapter 162, the City has the right and obligation to
enforce its Cod�s and Ordinances within its boundaries and has the authority to foreclose
applicable liens :;temming therefrom.
General Allegations
6. By way of background, on or about October 23, 2018, the City sent out a Notice of
Violation to the Defendants relative to the Property's unsafe roofing and inadequate drainage. The
matter was eventually referred to the Code Enforcement Board in matter number 18-043.
7. Tlhereafter another Notice of Violation along with a Notice of Hearing before the
Code Enforcem�nt Board dated January 18, 2019 was sent to the Defendants via Certiiied Mail
with Return Recf�ipt Requested. Noe Rodriguez signed the Return Receipt on January 22, 2019.
8. Tlhe Special Magistrate conducted a hearing on June 25, 2019 and subsequently
entered a Lien/Order imposing a fine of $25.00 per day until the violations were correct.
9. The Lien/Order is recorded in Book 828, Page 1250 of the Official Records of
Okeechobee Co�anty, Florida. A true and correct copy of the Lien/Order is attached hereto as
Exhibit "C" and incorporated by reference herein.
10. By way of letter dated October 17, 2019, the Defendants were advised that the daily
fines of $25.00 r�ad accrued for over 90 days and that this could result in foreclosure.
11. A.11 conditions precedent for bringing this action have occurred or been performed.
Count I — Foreclosure
12. The City realleges paragraphs 1 through 11 as if fully set forth herein.
13. P,ursuant to Florida Statutes Section 162.09(3), if a valid lien remains for a period
of 90 days and does not otherwise come into compliance, the City may elect to file a foreclose the
lien.
14. As of the 90th day, and at all times since, the said lien has not been satisfied and the
Property has not come into compliance with the City's Code of Ordinances.
15. In� addition to the various mailings, the City has posted notice(s) of lien on the
Property itself. A true and correct copy of photographs of the posted Notices are attached hereto
as Exhibit "D" and incorporated by reference herein.
16. Tlhrough September 30, 2020, the Defendants owe the City $11,575.00 plus
attorney's fees and costs. Additionally, the fine continues to accrue at $25.00 daily thereafter
until entry of the judgment of foreclosure by this Court.
17. T1'ne City believes that there may be additional persons who may be interested in
the Property, but after a diligent search and inquiry remain unknown to the City.
18. Tl.�e unknown parties may claim as heirs, devisees, grantees, assignees, lienors,
creditors, trustees, or other claimants by, through, under or against the Defendants herein, and
therefore all of the said unknown parties are made defendants to this action.
19. T:here may be other unknown parties having or claiming to have some right, title or
interest in the subject matter of this action, but whose names after diligent search and inquiry are
unknown to the City. Diligent search and inquiry has been made to discover the names and
residences of any unknown defendants, but their ages are unknown, their residences are unknown,
and the City does not know, by, through, or under or against whom they may claim, nor what right,
title or interest thiey may claim in the Property.
20. TP�e City has expended, and will expend during the pendency of this action, certain
necessary costs and shall seek reimbursement of same.
21. Further, the City has retained the undersigned counsel as its attorney in this action
and has agreed t:o pay him a reasonable fee for said services. The said fees are an additional
indebtedness autTlorized by Florida Statutes Chapter 162.
WHEREl ORE, the City respectfully requests that (a) this Court enter a judgment of
foreclosure, warcl the accrued lien(s), expenses and costs, including attorney's fees and costs, plus
interest to the City; (b) if the said sum is not paid within a time set forth by the Court, the City
requests that the Property be sold at auction to satisfy the City's claim; (c) if the proceeds of the
foreclosure sale are insufficient to pay the City's claim, that a deficiency judgment be entered for
the sums remairiing unpaid against the Defendants herein; and (d) such other relief as this
Honorable Court deems just and proper.
Respectfully submitted,

an order being entered solely on the evidence to be presented by the petitioner and a lien being recorded against your
property. Violators may be fined up to $250.00 for each day the violation is proven to exist. In cases of a repeat violation,
the Special Magistrate may increase the fine up to $500.00 per day. In addition to fines, the amount of the lien may include
costs incurred in prosecuting the case pursuant to Section 162.07(2), Florida Statutues and reasonable cost of repairs
required to bring the property into compliance pursuant to Section 162.09(1).
You have the right to obtain an attorney if you wish, and the Magistrate will receive testimony and evidence at said PUBLIC
HEARING, make findings of fact as are supported by the evidence, and issue appropriate orders necessary to bring the
a!;��ged violation into c;ompliance, including the payment of a fine by the Respondent(s). It is your obligation to insure an
accurate record of the� proceeding is taken for an appeal.
Pursuant to Section 162.06 Florida Statutes, you have a responcibility to disclose violations to any potential buyer of the
property and notify the Code Enforcement Department of the transfer, with the identity and address of the new owner and
copies of the written clisclosure made to the new owner within five days after the date of the transfer. Failure to make the
disclosure creates a r�buttable presumption of fraud. Sale of the property will not c se this case to be dismissed.

5. Pursuant to Florida Statute Chapter 162, the City has the right and obligation to
enforce its Codes and Ordinances within its boundaries and has the authority to foreclose
applicable liens stemming therefrom.
General Allegations
6. By way of background, on or about October 23, 2018, the City sent out a Notice
of Violation to the Defendants relative to the Property's unsafe roofing and inadequate drainage.
The matter was eventually referred to the Code Enforcement Board in matter number 18-043.
7. Thereafter another Notice of Violation along with a Notice of Hearing before the
Code Enforcement Board dated January 18, 2019 was sent to the Defendants via Certified Mail
with Return Receipt Requested. Noe Rodriguez signed the Return Receipt on January 22, 2019.
8. The Special Magistrate conducted a hearing on June 25, 2019 and subsequently
entered a Lien/Order imposing a fine of $25.00 per day until the violations were correct.
9. The Lien/Order is recorded in Book 828, Page 1250 of the Official Records of
Okeechobee County, Florida. A true and correct copy of the Lien/Order is attached hereto as
Exhibit "C" and incorporated by reference herein.
10. By way of letter dated October 17, 2019, the Defendants were advised that the
daily fires of $25.00 had accrued for over 90 days and that this could result in foreclosure.

performed.
Count I — Foreclosure
12. The City realleges paragraphs 1 through 11 as if fully set forth herein.
13. Pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 162.09(3), if a valid lien remains for a
period of 90 days and does not otherwise come into compliance, the City may elect to file a
foreclose the lien.
14. As of the 90" day, and at all times since, the said lien has not been satisfied and
the Property has not come into compliance with the City's Code of Ordinances.
15. In addition to the various mailings, the City has posted notice(s) of lien on the
Property itself A true and correct copy of photographs of the posted Notices are attached hereto
as Exhibit "D" and incorporated by reference herein.
16. Through September 30, 2020, the Defendants owe the City $11,575.00
plus attorney's fees and costs. Additionally, the fine continues to accrue at $25.00 daily
thereafter until entry of the judgment of foreclosure by this Court.
17. The City believes that there may be additional persons who may be interested in
the Property, but after a diligent search and inquiry remain unknown to the City.
18. The unknown parties may claim as heirs, devisees, grantees, assignees, lienors,
creditors, trustees, or other claimants by, through, under or against the Defendants herein,
andtherefore all of the said unknown parties are made defendants to this action.
19. There may be other unknown parties having or claiming to have some right, title
or interest in the subject matter of this action, but whose names after diligent search and inquiry
are unknown to the City. Diligent search and inquiry has been made to discover the names and
residences of any unknown defendants, but their ages are unknown, their residences are
unknown, and the City does not know, by, through, or under or against whom they may claim,
nor what right, title or interest they may claim in the Property.

certain necessary costs and shall seek reimbursement of same.
21, Further, the City has retained the undersigned counsel as its attorney in this
action and has agreed to pay him a reasonable fee for said services. The said fees are an
additional indebtedness authorized by Florida Statutes Chapter 162.
WHEREFORE, the City respectfully requests that (a) this Court enter a judgment of
foreclosure, ward the accrued lien(s), e*-ises and costs, including attorney'-acpes and costs,
.90 PV

City requests that the Property be sold at auction to satisfy the City's claim; (c) if the proceeds of
the foreclosure sale are insufficient to pay the City's claim, that a deficiency judgment be entered
for the sums remaining unpaid against the Defendants herein; and (d) such other relief as this
Honorable Court deems just and prpper.
