Ordinances/Lien Foreclosure Cases -- City Attorney Update
Y � �
M I I�5 �-12J� ���{,
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. 10t" 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 14th 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 5t" 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.

See below.
City of Okeecltobee v. Marvin Br�nt[ey, Case Number: 2004 CA 000309: The Court entered an Order Finding
Defendant in Contempt of Court on September 21, 2020. Per that Order, if Mr. Brantley did not pay the fines and
City's attorney's fees or enter into an agreed payment plan within 45 days, the City could file an Affidavit on
same and get a judgment entered against him. We filed the Affidavit of Defendant's Non-Compliance with
September 21, 2020 Order Finding Defendant in Contempt of Court on November 5, 2020. Also on November
5, 2020 we sent lhe Judge a letter enclosing both the Affidavit and a proposed judgment. We received the Final
Judgment on November 19, 2020. We had it recorded in both Palm Beach County and Okeechobee County to
create a judgment lien and had it recorded with the Florida Secretary of State so that it would become a judgment
lien certificate. We had the Clerk issue a Writ of Possession and we are in the process of collecting what is needed
to have the County Sheriff levy the property, i.e. sell it at an auction.
City of Okeec/iobee v Teresa Cappettc� et al., Case Number 47 2020 CC 000189 CC AX MX: The City filed
its foreclosure action along with discovery requests on November 2, 2020. All of the Defendants have been
served. None have filed answers. Thus, we filed a Motion for Clerk's default against Teresa Cappetta (which
was granted) and Roy Conerly (which is pending). We will file a Motion for Clerk's Default against Mary
Conerly after the expiration of 20 days from her date of service. We will proceed with a Motion for Default Final
Judgment once Clerk's Defaults are entered against all of the Defendants.
City of Okeechobee v Gloria Rodriguez et al,. Case Number 47 2020 CC 000190 A: The City filed its
foreclosure action on November 2, 2020 and its discovery requests on November 6, 2020. Noe Rodriguez has
been served. We have been in communication with Colin Cameron, Esq., counsel for the property owners. They
have demolished the house and are working with the City to bring the property into compliance. Colin Cameron,
Esq. has been advised that the property owners will need to reimburse the City for its attorney's fees and that they
can fill out a fine reduction request form, which is available from the City Code Enforcement office. We have
entered into a"gentleman's agreement" with Colin Cameron, Esq. which abates the case until January 31,
2021. Colin Cameron, Esq. has made a settlement offer to resolve the case.
City of Okeecliobee v Brend� Kemp et al., Case Number 2019 CA 253: On November 5, 2020 we filed the
City's Motion for Default Final Judgment. That was granted on December 11, 2020. At the December 11, 2020
hearing, Ben Purvis expressed a desire to resolve the outstanding code violations and/or sell the property. As
such the Judge scheduled a foreclosure sale date on April 14, 2021 to give him time to attempt to remediate the
property or sell it.
City of OkeecJzobee v Barbara Milts, Case Number 2020 000194 CC AXMX: The City filled its foreclosure
action on November 6, 2020. Richard Mills, the Personal Representative of the Estate of Barbara Mills, was
served on November 10, 2020. As there is an open probate case in Palm Beach County, we filed a Statement of
Claim in that matter. During the pendency of the case, he sold the property to Mr. Feltonberg. As a result, we
will dismiss this case as the code enforcement lien encumbers the property not Richard Mills. Mr. Feltonberg has
expressed a desire to seek a lien reduction. We will also need to file a Satisfaction of Claim in the probate case.
City of Okeeclaobee v. Crystal I, LLC, Case Number: 2017 CA 218: We filed the Motion for Default Final
Judgment on October 28, 2020. The Court granted our Motion and entered a Final Judgment on November 17,
2020. The auction will be held on January 6, 2021. If the property is not purchased at auction, we will seek a
new sale date.
City of Okeec/zobee v. Sotct/z Florida Barbeque, Case Number: 2020 CC 000241A: The City filed its
foreclosure action on December 18, 2020. The Clerk issued the summons on December 21, 2020 and we are
attempting to serve the Defendant's agent.

amount and argued the billing of the attorney fees was inaccurate based on the
information provided. It was requested by both parties to defer the Case to the
next Hearing to allow the City and property owners time to resolve the attorney
fees issue. Special Magistrate Azcona deferred Case No. 990215011 to the

VI. FINE REDUCTIONS REQUESTS CONTINUED
B. Case No. 200312003; Bella Rose Day Spa, 311 Northeast 2"d Street (Legal

Okeechobee County public records]. Violation of Code of Ordinances Chapter
30, Sections 30-43 Pubiic nuisances, and 30-44 General cleaning and
beautification.
Code Officer Smith testified a Courtesy Card was mailed on March 12, 2020, for
violation of Chapter 30, Sections 30-43 and 30-44, and operating a business
without a Business Tax Receipt. A Statement of Violation/Notice of Hearing was
sent and signed for by Hailey M. The second Statement of Violation/Notice of
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
filed and mailed on September 22, 2020; it was signed for by Hailey M. on
October 13, 2020, the fine began to accrue. A 90-day Letter was sent on January
15, 2021. Mrs. Rose submitted a request for a fine reduction on January 22, 2021.
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 r�duced 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.
C. Case No. 17-040; Okeechobee Park Street, LLC, 100 Northwest Park Street
[Legal Description: Lots 1 through 12 of Block 155, OKEECHOBEE, Plat Book 5,
Page 5, Okeechobee County public records]. Violation of Code of Ordinances
Chapter 30, Sections 30-43 Public nuisance and 30-44 General cleaning and
beautification.
City Attorney Kowalsky testified the City and Walgreens have agreed to
$9,920.00 which is a reduction from the original fine that was due. Due to no
response from the property owner, a demand letter with an attached complaint
was sent. Mr. Mark Rouer, the Walgreens representative, agreed there was a
breakdown in communication. Walgreens prides itself on being a good business
partner with the City and has brought the grounds into compliance. Based on the
evidence provided, Special Magistrate Azcona ruled a settlement had been
reached on Case No. 17-040.

Chapt�r 30, Section 30-44 for used tires stored on the property. On December 29, 2020,
a Statement of Violation/Notice of Hearing was mailed. On December 31, 2020, a 90 Day

Dear Mr. Mills,
Thank you for the email and the attachment. I was able to use it to get into the Public Records. It appears that there was
a Satisfaction for one prior matter and a Release for this matter but both matters related to the same parcel. I just need to
double check that there are no further code enforcement liens against this parcel. If none, I am more than happy to sign
and file the Stipulation for Dismissal and file a Satisfaction of Claim in #he probate case.

I was able to find Mr. Feltonberg's number and called him. He took the property subject to the existing lien. The City will need

Fred,
I was able to find Mr. Feltonberg's number and called him. He took the property subject to the existing lien. The City will need
to determine how it wants to proceed with the existing foreclosure action.

Dear Fred,
it appears Mr. Mills sold this property without addressing the municipal lien on this property. Do you know the buyer? We
need to find out if he is going to address the municipal lien and attorney's fees or not.
Thanks,
Greg

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.; 19t" 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. Cify 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 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 wilt 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.

re: City of Okeechobee, Florida v. Mills
Case No.: 47 2020 CC 000194 CCAX MS
Dear Mr. Mills
DIRECT DIAL:
(56l) 471-3524
FAX NUMBER:
(561)982-7116
As you are aware, this firm represents the City of Okeechobee, Florida ("City") in the above
noted matter. We are in receipt of your Motion to Strike Notice of Lis Pendens. Generally,
professional courtesy would dictate that you reach out iirst to resolve a dispute over the Lis
Pedens. You opted not to do that despite the fact that we have communicated in the past and, for
example, entered into an Agreed Order on your Motion for Extension of Time.
I find it perplexing that while the Agreed Order on Enlargement of Time ("Agreed Order") gives
you until to December 20, 2020 to file a responsive pleading or motion, you have devoted your
time to a Motion to Strike and a Reply rather than an Answer or discovery responses. As it is
clear that you have ample time to file motions, we expect that the Answer and the discovery
responses be filed by the deadline in the Agreed Order. If not, we will seek to hold you in
contempt.
Regards,
NASON, YEAGER, GERSON, HARRIS
& FUMERO, P.A.

Dear Chief Peterson and Mr. Sterling,
Richard Mills, the Personal Representative of the Estate of Barbara Mills, has asked that we agree to an extension of time for
him to respond to our Complaint. He has asked to be given until December 30, 2020. He believes that either (a) the property
will be remediated by then or (b) it will be sold. Let me know your thoughts.
My only concern is that as we get closer to the holidays, things can slip and so I'd rather keep the heat on them to get the
property cleaned up. I would prefer to give them until December 20, 2020. That said, it is your call...

property into compliance in August or September 2019. The individual informed
Ms. Kemp the property was brought into compliance and that a conversation was
had with Ms. Close at the Code Enforcement Office stating the same. Ms. Kemp
then issued the individual a check for the services rendered. Mr. Purvis asked for
time to bring the property into compliance, as he has already reached out to an
electrician.to begin wark.
City Attorney Kowalski recommended the Case be sent to the City Council with
Mr. Purvis providing evidence of work on the property to the Council at that time.
Should no progress be made, the Council should consider foreclosure.

City of Okeechobee 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. City of Okeechobee v. Brenda Kemp 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

RE: Barbara Mills
That was very helpful. Because she died in Palm Beach County, I checked to see if an Estate was opened here. An Estate
was opened here in Case Number SO 2020 CP 003529 XXXX MB in August 2020. I checked the docket and it does not
look like anyone has sought homestead on that property. We need to check to make sure that it is the same Barbara
Mills. Assuming that it is, we need to contact the probate attorney to advise about the impending foreclosure action
and its impact on the Estate as there has been a Will admitted into probate. lust let me know.

Subject: RE: Barbara Mills
Dear Melissa,
Thank you! If there is no probate open, then her heirs are not seeking to have the home declared protected
homestead. So that should be relatively straightforward. My suggestion is that we have the pleadings ready to go by
that date. We also still need to know who her heirs are to be able to foreclose. Usually, when a person has died,
someone technically has to open an estate for purposes of service unless we can find her heirs. Do we know when she
died?

Fred called the property appraiser office yesterday. They informed him that due to Mrs. Mills passing the property will
no longer be homestead exempt as of January 1, 2021. We may want to hold of on the foreclosure until then. I am still
putting them on the Octobers Agenda for recommendation from the City Council for foreclosure.
