case number 2025 02368 13 Officer Diaz address is 13 Magnolia Street in Okoi on July 9th 2025 I received a complaint and observed the fence that was installed without the required
permits, plans, approval, and inspections. On July 9th, 2025, a notice of code violation was mailed to Bradford Wendy Llair at 4:15 Court Lea Creek Drive in Winter Garden, Florida 34787
as I in identified by Orange County Property Appraisal. The notice were sent for the violation of or ordinance number chapter 51, the building code subsection 51-13 permits required. They were given until August 9th to bring the property
into compliance or to obtain a permit. On August 10th, 2025, I reinspected the property and it is not in compliance with the city. On August 11, 2025, the notice of hearing to this code board meeting was mailed and city hall was posted. On
August 11th, I posted the property with a notice of hearing to this code board meeting. As of today, there is no permit at hand. Um, and the property is not in compliance with the city. The recommendation of the city recommendation was to give him um 30
days to obtain the required permits for the city of from the city of Okoier to impose a fine of $50 a day. I have a few questions. You said him. Have you he made Oh, is there any questions for the office?
I I have one. Yes. You mentioned a Winter Garden address or is it an AOE address? Um the property owner lives in Winter Garden. Got it. That's the address that's on the Orange County property. But the house is here in a 13 Magnolia
Street. Yes. Any other questions for the officer at this point? No. We have somebody who's wishing to speak. Yes, sir. Sir, approach the microphone. State your name and address for us for the record. My name is Cam Bradford. I'm uh I live
at 415 Courtley Creek Drive in Winter Garden, Florida. Okay. Um I um I on the on March the 20th, I applied for a permit for this fence among other permits. We bought this house for our daughter and our grandson
and my son-in-law. They fixed it up for him. 100 100-y old house looks looks great. But um we I did not do this process correctly. Well, I will admit this. Um I received an email from the city uh on the 8th of April saying that
the permit was conditionally approved. That's how I interpreted this email. Um I told the fence company to install the fence. We removed an old wooden fence and put a this vinyl fence that you see exactly where the old fence was. Um the
on the 16th of April that same month, I received another email saying that the permit was conditionally approved, but they have since explained to me that that's not an approval. All right, that's just a statement that this stage is of that has been conditionally approved. Later that same day, I
received an email. This is after we installed the fence, right? This is two or three days after that that um that it was denied. And it was denied because where the fence was and now is is in the center of a platted alley that runs between Lou's real estate office there
on Blford and uh this property. So I then went to uh right away down to the building department right here, which is the nicest building department I've ever seen. You guys should be really proud. It's beautiful. and asked and met with city staff and said, "Here's here's what happened. Here's
what I did." Um, and then they said, "You need to meet with Bernice, the zoning official." I sent an email to her on the 14th of that same month, that same day. And then she she emailed me back and saying, "Hey, I'm getting ready to go on vacation, but we I can meet you
Thursday." I couldn't meet that Thursday. I was in Jacksonville, so I emailed her again on the 5th. Uh on the 8th I got that notice posted on the door. It was for a different property, but I knew what was going on. So here I am. I did email Bernice again on the
18th and she emailed today in fact and scheduled a meeting to discuss the variance process at 9:00 Monday. So that's where I stand. Um I have to take responsibility for it. I I should have known better, but I I'm here I am. So I I guess what I'm requesting is a continuous to let me see if I can get a
variance. I have a price to move it if I have to, but I really like to, if I could, leave it. It does align with the neighboring fence. So, there's an alley that runs the length of two residential lots. It's a it's an unimproved platted alleyway. It just looks like a, you
know, yard really. But, um, if we move this fence over, there's still another fence that's in the right behind us that's going to be seven feet in the center of the alley, too. So, I don't know how that would work, but I don't hold much hope to get the variance, but
I would like to try that process and try to go through that. I guess that's my ask. If you don't get the variance, are you going to move it uh to where it should be? Yes, sir. How much how much time do you think you would need to uh to finish this process
with the uh the city zoning? Uh, I think I could answer that really well after my meeting with her on Monday, but I would I think it's going to take more than 30 days usually. I think I think that's it's going to involve a public hearing generally as I understand it, but I I really don't know. I don't know
how long that would take. Okay. But I could commun I have her her number now and I could communicate with her and keep her up to date of the process, but I don't know. Yes, member Bickram has a question. I do have a question for you. So, uh, was
this done professionally or you did it yourself? No, I hired I hired you hired someone and they didn't advise you on getting a permit. No, I h I thought I had the permit. So, I I had the email. If you read it in retrospect, it's it's kind of I don't know why it is. It definitely was. I'm a general contractor. I deal with permit
departments all the time. I just applied two weeks later. I got an email saying you're conditionally approved. I called the guy the next day and said, "Hey, come do it." But when I go back and read it, it's it's not, you know, you can tell, you know, I should have I should have understood it more carefully, but I did not.
Did they Did they ever issue you a number or anything on that conditional? They did. Really? Yeah. You get a permit number, but but it's not a permit. But it's not a permit. The case number. Understood. Yeah. But they subsequently denied the
permit. Right. Because what I'm asking I was asking to put the fence up right back where it where it was. And I have pictures showing where it was and where it is. It's in the same exact place, but it's not it's in the center of that plat. You just put up too pretty of a fence. I was it was noticeable now.
I don't know. It looks good, but um anyway, I I sorry for taking up y'all's time, but that's that's my ask, I guess, to try to get through this. So just a tip in the zoning um they do it does take time. They meet every month
and then it has to go before zoning board and it goes before commission as well. So just so you could take that under consideration. It's going to take some time. Okay. Well, there's some wisdom on this board here. So
I'm happy to make a motion. All right. Member Fernandez, let's hear it. I move in 2025-02368 that the case is let me find that date. The case is continued until November
20th, 2025, the next at the November Akoi um code enforcement code enforcement board meeting. Okay. Hopefully that's enough time, sir. Thank you. I appreciate it. We got to we got to get through the whole official thing here.
Okay. So, we have a motion on the floor made by member Fernandez, seconded by Vice Chair Lewis, that in case number 2025-02368 that it be continued until the November 20th, 2025 COE code enforcement meeting. Any
questions or discussion about that? All right, let's take a vote. All those in favor press yes and those opposed press no. You got passed unanimously. Good luck with that. Thanks. All right.
Thank you. All right. On to our next case. 2025-02417. Officer Laughler. 02417 is 903 Dorine Avenue. Edward Leler, City View Code Enforcement. On
July 10th, 2025, the city received a complaint which read, "They have long grass and weeds and have not mowed the property all year." On July 14th, this officer did observe the tall weeds and grass as described and observed a pickup
truck with no tag on the grass with tall grass under and around the pickup. Other vehicles on the property had current valid license tags and appeared recently used. With no answer at the door, a violation notice was posted at the location and sent out certified service
to the owners of record as identified as Linda and David Lindsay at the same address for violation of ordinances 115-3 regarding the tall grass and 165-3 regarding the vehicle with no tag.
The owners were provided until July 30th, 2025 to cut the tall weeds and grass on the front, side, and rear yards and to remove the vehicle from the property or repair it, make it operable, including the attached display of a valid license tag, and relocate it to
surfaced parking. On July 31st, 2025, reinspection revealed non-compliance. On August 8, 2025, a hearing notice to this meeting was posted at the location in the city hall lobby and sent out certified service by the clerk.
As of this date, the property remains non-compliant. Um, I did notice that both postings disappeared off the front door and the city's recommending a $50 per day per violation fine.
And originally I was going to recommend a 15-day time compliance, but the property owner is here today. So, he might need a little more time. He's here to speak. Okay. Is there any questions of Officer
Laughler at this point? So, what time what time are you recommending? You said he might need a little bit more time, but what time are you recommending? I originally I was going to say 15 days, but since I've heard his story, which he's probably going to tell you, I'm gonna leave it up to you guys.

is uh 2025-02455. Officer Diaz. Case number 2025 2455 officer Diaz address is 200 Lee Street in Okoi and on July 10th 2025 I observed the
abovementioned property with trash debris in front and back of the property an above ground swimming pool not being maintained and an overgrowth in the back of the property. On July 16th, 2025, a notice of code
violation was mailed to WMAC, Daniel J. 30567 Georgia Highway 23 North Meor, Georgia 30439 as identified by Orange County Property Appraisal. Okay. Notices were sent for the
violation of ordinance number chapter 115 nuisance 115-3 a junk and debris b overgrown grass and debris or uh overgrown grass and weeds. They were given until July 29th to bring the property into compliance.
On July 30th, 2025, I reinspected I reinspected the property finding it not in compliance with the city. On August 8th, 2025, a notice of hearing to this code board meeting was mailed and city hall was posted. On August 11, 2025, I posted the property with the
notice of hearing to this code board meeting. And as of today, the property is not in compliance with the city. Now, she did remove the pool. She removed a lot of the debris, but there's still the tires in the back of the property and
this overgrowth here which is still on their property. So, city is recommending to give until September 8th, 2025 to clean and cut the overgrowth or impose a fine of $50 a day per day
for the overgrowth and the tires and the trash and debris. So, $50 total for the day or 50 per violation. It's per violation. All right. Any questions for the officer?
Just a minute, ma'am. Any questions for the officer? No. Okay. You're here to speak today? Hi. Please, if you would uh speak your name and your address for us, please. I am Karen Wilson, property manager for
Mr. WAC. Uh, I live at 26044 Nukem in Leburg, Florida. Okay. Thank you. So, I am aware of the um violations here on the property. I guess I had went by
the property on the 30th and it was cleaned up um pretty much until uh we got this letter here that I just was aware of the meeting tonight. But talking with Officer Diaz now, I'm aware
exactly what corner she's talking about, which I thought said on the back property of the neighbor, but it does not. Um, so I need a little bit more time to get that area that's up there cleaned up. And then I'm not aware of
any tires, but I did let her know that I will go to the property and look to see where the tires are and get those removed. I posted Okay, that's on the west side of the house. Yeah. Were you the officer there? Yeah. Okay. She and the grass on the side of
the house is still overgrown as well. Okay. I can get that taken care of. And right here, here's the tires. The tires right behind the back door. There's three of them there. All right. I can get those removed. So, I think I need I need a little bit more
time than the 8th of September, though, to get that cleaned up. Any questions? Will the next court enforcement board in September 18th be enough? Um, yes, ma'am. I should be fine there.
And we said some work was started. Some work was done, just not on the right. Exactly. A lot of it was cleaned up. It looks good except for the corner and those tires. Now that I'm aware of those the tires up against the house. Yeah. Still they're not
and some weeds there. Yeah. Yes. Okay. There's no other questions. I'll entertain a motion. Goes all the way to here. See, goes right here where that overgrowth ends. That's where the end of your property and the overgrown brushes by the front by the road. Is that is that
on the railroad tracks? No. No, that's not on the railroad. Oh, see I I'm thinking the railroad tracks there and it's all cleaned up. No, it's be right directly behind the house. I see I can get See, this is your house and this is the overgrowth.
Okay. So, that's the pole I'm talking about. Yeah, that's that's what divides the property. See? Okay. So, this is on the side. Railroad tracks are over here, right? Across across the street. Okay. So, I think we'll be good on by the next meeting. I'll get that all cleaned up.
I'll entertain a motion. Can since it's all trash, we do have a right to con, you know, it's $50 for trash and trash. Can it be 50 or 25 each? You can make whatever motion you want.
All right, Mr. Mr. Chair, I'd like to make a motion. Yes, member Schultz. I move that in case number 2025-02455 that a respondent be found in violation of code 1153B
as cited um A and B. It's 115-3 A and B. A and B um as um the codes as citided and be given until se oh wait um as citided as of July 29th
and be given until September 18th to come in compliance or be fined $25 per day per violation until found into compliance. Do we have a second? Perfect. Second.

All right, let's take a vote. All those in favor, press yes. All those opposed, press no. And it passes unanimously. Thank you. I appreciate your time. Yes, ma'am. Thank you. All right. So, this brings us down to
board comments. Um, excuse me. I um and I apologize about this. When Mr. Lindsay was here, I should have spoken out. Um given his health concern, I would really like to revisit this to see if we can push this to our next meeting just in case he has
any health concerns. Continue. I think we gave him 30 days. I gave him more than I know the attorney isn't here, but that would be a motion to reconsider. It would have to be from the um the winning side. you you wouldn't be able to, but someone else who voted yes can can do a
motion to reconsider if you want. He had asked for two weeks. We decided to give him a little longer. We gave him a month. Yeah. You know, and and as long as he's making forward progress, he can always speak to the I mean, that's the reason I voted against it because I I really would like
to see a little more, you know, for people going through health concerns, I really have some, you know, empathy. So, so that's why I I I reached out to co-chair and I asked if we can do a little longer term, right? Okay. Yeah. So, yeah, but if you have any concerns,
remember member Whittle, I I know this is your first meeting and we appreciate you here, but if you have any concerns during that discussion time, it's really, you know, even even if you don't know if it's a great question, ask it anyways. Fair enough. You've got a great board here of of members that that have some
experience. Okay, understood. All right. Uh well, we're going to start with board comments. This is where uh we ask you if you if you want to make any comments um at all. No, I think my comment was just what I just talked about. It's reconsideration.
Um normally I'm not quiet. I'm generally pretty vocal. Sorry. It's first meeting. Just trying to make sure I understand the the landscape and how, you know, this board interacts and, you know, considers things. I think we did a pretty fair job today and I appreciate it. Thank you. All right, member Schultz.
Um, like that. I see it seems we have more respondents from the community and I'll lean on member Fernandez there. When you look at the code violations, it's up to each, but if they're trying and you see it in progress. Yeah. Yeah. So, I I I like that we're working
together with that. I like that, too. Yes. That's community, right? All right. Member Fernandez, no comments, chair. Thank you. Really? No. No continuance. No more continuence. from now on. You know, that was good. No, that was really good.
All right, Vice Chair Lewis, number I'd like to welcome you to the board. So, I was glad to have some additional support from the community for for a while. We had been suffering as far as with membership, but we're certainly getting quite to have a full
board. So, welcome. Looking forward to working with you. Thank you. All right. Member Bickram. Uh, welcome to the board and uh no additional comments. Okay. You know, he's like two days older than you on you know. He sounds like an experience.
