Kowalsky <CKowalsky@nasonyeager.com> 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, ,- 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; 19th 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 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; 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 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.

It looks like a lien was filed on 1/15/2020. There is a daily fine of $100.00. However. I am not sure what its status is now. We sent a memo to the City Council and Fortex was listed. If Fortex is not in compliance, then it needs to be brought to council for foreclosure or we need to advise council why it is not ready for foreclosure. Thanks!

July 19,2019 Inspection: Received call from Fred complaining about Mow Ditch, immediately hired new landscaper to mow the ditch and paid 500.00 for the service. Notified Fred and complain resolve. 2. September 30,2019: Received email from Fred complaining about Bees at Pole Sign, hired Bees removal and resolved the complaint and notified Fred. 3. February 24,2020: Received call from Fred complaining about Abandon Vehicle, immediately sign the authorization form with BMJ Towing and Vehicle was removed by February 26,2020. 4. March 26,2020: Received email from Melissa, asking to call Fred and stating that there is a fine in the amount of 8,450.00 for not removing the abandon vehicle, although Vehicle was removed in February, but immediately called Fred to discuss the issue and reminded him that when he first notified me in February 24,2020, Vehicle was removed by Feb 26,2020 and it's also says in City record the Property is in compliance as of February 26,2020. Followed our phone discussion, emailed Melissa on March 27,2020, stating that you heard Fred that he will call me after Virus Lockdown is over to clear this fine, because it was not my fault that for some reason instead of calling or emailing me, Mail was sent but never received and City has the proof that mail was never delivered to me. 5. April 1,2020: Received call from Fred notifying me about Wendy Customers dumping Garbage in our parking lot, by April 6,2020 install Orange Fence b/w Driveways to stop Wendy Customers and told Wendy Manager to stop their Customers from Dumping garbage on our parking lot. Removed all Wendy Customers garbage including Huge White Flowers Pot from underneath the Canopy that was used by Wendy customers to dump their trash. Notified Fred and also texted him pictures as well. For the first to time ever received a Certified Mail on the night of Friday, October 9th,2020 about the fine that was placed due abandon Vehicle back in February. As you can see, since I don't live in City and from the beginning at my request, our only method of communication has been always via phone call or email, for which I remains very Thankful to you for accommodating my request of preferred communication. https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox/id/AAQkADZIZGU0MTg2LTMOMGQtNDk3Mi04Mjc2LTg1 ZIwNmE4Zm EwMAAQAGjma265bUVHo3%2FbnrX... 1 /4 10/19/2020 Mail - Fred Sterling - Outlool Considering the above tacts which clearly shows that whenever I receive your call or email, I tries my utmost to resolve the complaints immediately, therefore please rescind this huge 8450.00 fine which was placed unjustly because I was not aware at all but when got notified BMJ removed the Vehicle within 2 days, therefore please clear this issue,which is causing huge stress on my health. With regards to the pictures that was emailed by Melissa, it looks like the back wall needs pressure cleaning and with regards to pots holes, as you know FDEP should be installing theirs Contamination cleaning Equipment soon, which may end up tearing the entire parking lot in the back where Underground Storage Tanks used to be, but I am trying to get their exact schedule for this work, if I don't receive concrete FDEP date than will try our best to fix them and pressure clean the back wall. I will call you later this morning to resolve the above mentioned issues but just wanted to recap and shows that upon receiving call or email, always took care of your complaints. Regards, Ra b when someone left the abandon vehicle at property, City send the mail, which I never received and you have proof of that and that's the reason City is charging me 8450.00 for no fault of mine but as soon you notify me in February, 2020, I immediately signed up with BMJ towing and removed the vehicle from the property, From: rabmass2 <rabmass2@aol.de> Date: October 12, 2020 at 12:19:14 PM EDT To: Fred Sterling <fsterling@cityofokeechobee.com> Cc: Rab <rabmass2@aol.com> Subject: 510 NOV 190718010 https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox/id/AAQkADZIZGU0MTg2LTMOMGQtNDk3Mi04Mjc2LTg1 ZIwNmE4ZmEwMAAQAGjma265bUVHo3%2FbnrX... 2/4 �----»......,.�e _: .--, 10/19/2020 Mail - Fred Sterling - Outlook Fred, Just left you the Voice message.

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 Olceechobee v. Marvin W. Brantley; 19th Judicial Circuit Case Number 47 2004 CA 000309: 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. Ciry of Okeechobee v.
