On June 6, 2022 Mrs. Minton called in and spoke to Code Officer Smith and asked how her fine went up to $1,100.00. I Code Officer Smith explained that the fine started on May 3, 2022 and ran up to May 23, 2022 and $100.00 administration fee. She claimed that she was told that the fine was 700.00 dollars a few days ago. She was advised that she should fill out the fine reduction form and turn it in to get her scheduled for next hearing. On June 8, 2022 Ruby Minton came into the office and dropped off the Request for Fine Reduction.

The City recommends a fine reduction of 50% plus a $100.00 administrative fee, reducing the fine from $1,000.00 to $500.00 plus the $100.00 administrative fee, totaling $600.00 RA -okay, Ms. Minton do you understand how the fines accrued in your case RM-yes, I do RA -okay so since there was a finding of violation and there was a fine ruled by this Hearing that after 21-days from the date and that was May 31 that a fine of $50.00 per day was going to accumulate plus a $100.00 administrative fee. My understanding is that on May 23d the property was corrected, and we do appreciate that you were able to correct that, so the total fine in this case was $1,100.00 but Code Enforcement is agreeing to reduce your fine by 50% and now it is only $600.00, 1 understand that you complain as to why your fine has gone up but the City is recommending that your fine be reduced by 50% do you have any further objection besides that RM-my only concern that I have is that the truck was moved on the 19th and they have it marked as the 23rd- but that truck was moved on the morning of the 19th RA -okay RM- I do have neighbors up and down the street that can verify to that, if need be, I don't feel that I should be charged for those days RA -okay so you are saying that the vehicle was moved on the 19th RM-yes RA -did you call code enforcement right after it was moved RM-1 spoke to him about that RA -okay I am going to give Mr. Smith an opportunity to respond to that AS-1 spoke to her after the fact I think she really spoke to Code Officer Curl and Code Officer Curl let me know to go check it when I came back to work on the 23rd, I believe she called on Friday if I am not mistaken, I am off work on Fridays, so I came and checked it on Monday RA -it looks like you fined her till May 231d did you make an adjustment for that or are you still asserting that it was not in compliance until May 23rd AS-1 can't say if it was in compliance on the 19th because I did not go inspect it on the 19th I did not go until the 23rd RA -when were you made aware that the respondent was in compliance AS -on May 23 rd, that Monday when I got to work RA -so you were not made aware until May 23rd AS-1 did not find out about it until the 23rd as I was off Page 2 of 7 V. FINE REDUCTION REQUESTS CONTINUED A.

Ms. Minton you are saying the vehicle was removed on the 19th RM-yes sir RA -okay you said the vehicle was removed on the 19th that would reduce the fine by how much Mr. Smith AS-$100.00 RA -by a $100.00, okay AS -yes RA -okay would the City be willing to AS -I'm sorry it would be $200.00 wouldn't it, four days correct at $50.00 a day RA -yes and if we reduced that by 50% AS -that would be $400.00 plus the $100.00 administrative fee RA -correct, so if we take that into consideration Ms. Minton that it was corrected on the 19th and still adding the 50% reduction you would have objection if the fine was reduced to $500.00. Would that be fair to you, I mean the City has already bending backwards to reduce it by 50% and giving the credit that the violation was corrected on the 19th RM-yes if I can get payments RA -how long will it take you to pay $500.00 Ms. Minton to satisfy the fines in this case RM-I probably can't do payments over $50.00 maybe $60.00 a month as I only receive Social Security each month RA -I don't know if we can bring it down that far Ms. Minton. Mr. Smith what is the lowest amount of payment that the City is willing to go down to AS-1 don't have a number, I am fine with $50.00 a month I don't have a problem with it, it will just take a while RA -okay RM-if I see that I can pay more I will RA -can you pay at least $60.00 a month or $50.00 a month RM-I will pay $50.00 a month and if I can see that I can pay $60.00, 1 will pay $60.00 RA -okay so you can pay at least $50.00 a month and if you have more you will pay more RM-yes sir RA -will you be able to pay that consistently for the next ten months RM-yes sir, I hope I can get it paid off RA -alright so the City is okay with it AS-1 am fine with it RA -okay Mr. Hyden as the attorney for the City are you okay with it GH-I am not going to veto Code Officer Smith RA -okay Mrs. Curl you can make the arrangement for that CC -yes RA -I just want to make sure the Code Enforcement Office is able to make arrangements to accept payment from Ms. Minton CC -I will send you an agreement in the mail that is typed up for you sign and to send back to me Ms. Minton RM-okay so when will you be able to make your first payment Ms. Minton RM-all my bills have been paid and I only have $100.00 in the bank so it will have to start next month RA -okay so your first payment will be due September 1 st or August 30th RM-I don't get paid until the V so maybe around the 4t' or 5th Page 3 of 7 V.

Have you had an opportunity to contact those people AS -just via the SOV/NOH and the Courtesy Card RA -okay was your statement of violation sent to those people Page 5 of 7 VII. NEW CASES CONTINUED A. CONTINUED: AS -no Creech Construction is a construction company that you could get to build on that property it is actually owned by a company called Grand Lake Investments Inc so that is where we sent it RA -okay when you conducted a diligent search for the owner the only one that came up was AS -Grand Lake Investments Inc RA -Grand Lake Investments is the registered owner from where, the property appraiser AS -yes RA -and this was the only contact that you could obtain AS -yes CC -and the address that we mailed to is the registered agents address on Sunbiz as well RA -okay, Mr. Hyden could you think of anything else for us to make an attempt to get ahold of these people other than posting because it sounds like these are people from out of town GH-I believe the City has exhausted the efforts that they are normally supposed to do. Unfortunately, this does occur on occasion where someone does not claim their mail, but I think they have done everything that they can do obviously if a lien order does go out we can do regular mail as well as certified mail and we can do background checks to see if we can try to track down the officers of the entity but in terms of today the City has down what they need to do to provide proper notice AS -also to correct you on that statement it is a local company because we sent it local RA -okay that is what I wanted to hear that the City for the purpose of this Hearing today is sufficient. I will find in the case of the City of Okeechobee vs, Grand Lake Investments Inc, Case #220601005 based on the testimony of the certified Code Enforcement Officer Mr. Smith and the exhibits presented at this Hearing that there is sufficient bases for the allegations in this case and the respondent is in violation of Chapter 30, Sections 30-43 Public nuisances, 30-44 General cleaning and beautification for having a vacant lot with overgrown grass and weeds. On review of the exhibits and hearing the testimony of the certified code enforcement officer in this case I see from the exhibits in this case there is a lot of overgrown vegetation and has not been kept and I will make a finding that the respondent is in violation and I will also make a finding in this case that even though the SOV/NOH was mailed via USPS certified return receipt it came back unclaimed and unable to forward that the City of Okeechobee has satisfied the requirements of the law as the purpose of notice in this case by posting the Notice to Appear at the property itself and at City Hall. I will make a finding the City's recommendation of a fine of $50.00 per day to begin 21-Days after the date of this hearing on August 9, 2022 unless the property owner brings the property into compliance on or before that date, plus a $50.00 administration fee. Anything else Mr. Hyden GH-no your honor RA -Mr. Smith AS -no sir RA -Mrs. Curl CC -no your honor RA -okay next case VIII. DELINQUENT BUSINESS TAX RECEIPTS A.
