Motion carried 6-0. Takoordeen Mangru, 1807 Prairie Lake Blvd., was sworn in by Executive Secretary Seaver, and said that he was requesting a reduction of the fine. Lengthy discussion ensued about the violations, fine, and lien. VICE PRESIDENT LINEBARIERL seconded by MEMBER LENKO, moved to reduce the fine to $1,000 in Case No. 97-056, Takoordeen & Neela Mameru, provided that it was paid within seven (7) days. Motion carried 6-0. Vice Chairman Linebarier said that since this case had begun, the respondent had a total of $20,400 in fines, that Mr. Mangru or someone had paid $9,600 of that fine when the respondent had made the sale of another piece of property or something, and that had brought the fine up-to-date. Since that time, Mr. Mangru had failed to comply with the previous order of the Board and the instructions of the Code Enforcement Officer. The respondent had not called for a re-inspection of the corrections that the respondent had made in the house, therefore, the fine continued to accrue even after paying the $9600. It had continued to accrue with another $10,800 which brought the total fine to $20,400. The Board had dropped that additional $10,800 down to $1,000 if Mr. Mangru paid it within seven (7) days. �•► Attorney Barice said that it might help to clarify the motion about the total fine so there would be no clarification later as to $1,000 versus $10,600. MEMBER LENKO, seconded by ALTERNATE MEMBER ELLISON, moved to amend the first motion to read a total fine of$10,600 in this case, and that the fine had been reduced from $20,400 to $10,600 with a balance due of $1,000 if paid within seven (7) days. Motion carried 6-0. In response to Mr. Mangru, Chairman Carlsson said that the Board would not extend the due date to seven (7) months instead of seven (7) days. Alternate Member Ellison left the table at 8:30 p.m. 97-108, ROBERT REID - 122 Olympus Drive Simon 10/08/97 NOCV - Re-inspection Date:10/13/97 10/17/97 NOH - Board Meeting Date:10/28/97 10/17/97 SOV 10/21/97 POS - Mail Cert#Z 312 103 402 10/28/97 Order of Continuance: 25-Nov-97 11/25/97 Order of Continuance: 27-Jan-98 01/27/98 Order of Continuance: 24-March-98 03/02/98 NOH: Board Meeting:03/24/98 03/06/98 POS: Mail Cert: P 882 518 756 Code Enforcement Supervisor Simon, representing Code Enforcement, having been sworn, and stating qualifications, made a statement.

Lakeshore Drive Ocoee, FL 34761-2258 Dear Ms. Simon, Today we had George of Groundteck at our property to discuss the proposed restoration required on our lot and the lot of Patrick Freeman. We will restore the areas according to your letters to us and according to the sketch from the Department of Environmental Protection. However, due to the unusually heavy rain of last week the area where the work has to be done is soft and has standing water present. The heavy equipment will do more damage to the area if we do the work now. We are requesting an �r extension of time to get the work done. I would judge that we need another 60 days for the water to recede enough to proceed. I have enclosed two photos taken this week of the water level. Enclosed is the DEP sketch showing what Groundteck will do on our lot. Mr. Freeman will follow your directions and remove the mound to his dock. Mr. Luce has told me that the equipment travel over his lot will push the sod down enough so that it will not have to be removed, according to your instructions. Will you please advise us on our request for the extension. Thanks! Sincerely, cc: Patrick Freeman 4.4).

Hadley. CEP Environmental Manager Department of Environmental Protection. Central District 3319 Maguire Boulevard, Suite 232 Orlando. FL 32803-3767 Dear Mr. Hadley, As you must be aware. the recent rains are causing our lake to keep rising. We appreciate you granting us an extension until March 15: 1998 to restore the wetland area on the lake shore. However. at the present lake level it will not be possible to do the work by that date. Please see the enclosed photos taken in late February and today showing the present level of the water. If we did not have the earth in place we would be in danger of erosion undermining our (lor retaining wall. We would request that you grant a further extension until the water levels have receded to a level such that the work can be done without major damage to the lake. Also, we would like you or your representative to come out and see first hand. the current situation. I am also enclosing a copy of a "NOTICE OF HEARING" received today from the City of Ocoee. I am copying Shelly Simon of the City on this letter so that all parties are informed of the present situation.
