VIII. OLD CASES AND FINE REDUCTION REQUESTS
A. Case Number 17-005 Jackie Rediker, 201 Northeast 101h Street, Okeechobee, Florida
34972 (Chapter 30 Section 30-43, 30-44 and 30-41) City of Okeechobee Code Ordinance. [City
of Okeechobee Lots 19 and 30, Block 31]
Mr. Rediker was sworn in and Special Magistrate Roger Azcona asked Code Officer
Sterling to explain the issue with this property. Officer Sterling stated that the property sits
on two parcels, one which has the home and the other which has a workshop. He went
on to explain that this Case has been ongoing since February 2017. The property was
found in violation of Chapter 30 Section 30-43 Public Nuisance, 30-44 General Cleaning
and Beautification as well as 30-41 Disabled Vehicles. The fine on the property ran for
576 days at $15.00 per day, bringing the fine amount to $8,640.00. Mr. Rediker stated
that he was gone during this time period. He stated that his wife was supposed to take
care of the property but did nothing. Special Magistrate Azcona asked Mr. Rediker if the
Case goes to the City Council for a request of Fine at 10% totaling $864.00 could he pay
it? Mr. Redikers stated that he is on disability and only gets $522.00 a month, but he could
pay $50.00 a month. Magistrate Azcona stated that if the City Council approves the fine
reduction to the 10% making the fine $864.00, it would have to be paid on the first of
every month. Mr. Rediker agreed to this term. Magistrate Azcona stated, If the fine is not
paid every month then the case will be overturned, and the foreclosure process will begin.
This property was deemed in compliance as of December 10, 2019.
B. Case Number 17-028 Lorene Mott (Feltenberger) 1006 Southwest 5th Avenue,
Okeechobee, Florida 34974 (Chapter 30 Section 30-44 and 30-43) City of Okeechobee Code
Ordinance. [ South Okeechobee Lots 2,3and 4 Less That Part Lying West of a Line Described
in or 257, Page 1677 Block 7]
Mrs. Feltenberger was sworn in and Special Magistrate Azcona asked Code Officer
Sterling to explain the issue with the above property. Officer Sterling stated that the
property has been in disarray and that the Feltenbergers just purchased the property. Mr.
Sterling stated that the property was in violation of Chapter 30-44 General Cleaning and
Beautification and Section 30-43 Public Nuisance. Officer Sterling stated that they have
gone in and started the cleanup process. Mrs. Feltenberg was asked by Special
Magistrate Azcona if the case was to go to the City Council for a recommendation of a
fine reduction of 10%, would she be fine with that. Mrs. Feltenberger stated that she would
like to get the fine down around $500.00 to $600.00. She stated, they have gone in and
cleaned the property up and that the property has also been a thorn in the City Code
Enforcements side. Mrs. Feltenberger also stated that they have had to pay an attorney
to do the probate on the property, and that it has all been paid. Special Magistrate Azcona
stated that the recommendation on the fine reduction is usually 10% of the fines due.
Special Magistrate Azcona also stated that the fee of $400.00 would have to be paid for
the filing of the foreclosure that the city already paid. Mr. Azcona recommended that this
case be sent to the City Council for a fine reduction at the 10% due of 6,615.00 and the
filing fee of $400.00. Mrs. Feltenberg stated that if that's what the City Council decides
she would take care of the payment of $1,061.00.

Subject: Mott Property Case #17-028
I have all the information on the Mott property, the only thing I am lacking is your fee. I have the
fine figured out and the filling of the foreclosure figured out. Fine amount is $10,675.00 the filling
fee was $400.00 which they paid. So all I need is what your fee is to add to the fine amount. Sorry I
got a new computer this am and Betty is installing all my programs.
Thank you for all your help and hope you are doing well. Spoke with David Feltenberger and he
said he has the deed, so I will get them on the January Special Magistrate meeting.
Sincerely,

Subject: Regarding the Mott Property Case #17-028
Mr. Feltenberger
I have the figures for the Mott fine: Fine started on 1/19/2018 ran through 03/05/2019 for a total of 411 days at $15.00
a day. Total on that is $6,615.00. Also have foreclosure fee that will be add to the amount ($400.00)
So that brings the total amount of the lien to $7,015.00. The City Attorney waved his fees. I have the paperwork you
filled out for the fine reduction and will get this case on the January 14th Special Magistrate Meeting at 6:30 at the City
Hall/ Council Chambers. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact me at the number listed below or
email me.
Thank you,

Re: 1006 SW 5' Avenue
Dear Property Owner:
This letter is in reference to the Code Enforcement Board Order/Lien dated December 12, 2017
imposing a fifteen dollar per day fine beginning January 19, 2018 for overgrown grass, yard
debris on property located at 1006 SW 5'h Avenue.
On March 23, 2018 the Lien was recorded in Okeechobee County. The fine has now accrued for
over ninety (29) days and is continuing, to accrue dailv. 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 August 14, 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 ed Sterling
