Code Enforcement Officer Simon said that the City would like to see this case resolved, that
no one was caring for the trailer which was vacant and open. Officer Simon expressed concern
about risks of fire or destruction.
,,,,, Sandra Crane, 89 Buck Key Court, Pioneer Key Park I, was sworn in by Acting Deputy Clerk
Cronnon, and presented a Power of Attorney for Garfield Holmes (Exhibit 1). She requested
a re-hearing and asked that the fine be lowered in Case No. 95-58. Ms. Crane also presented
a photograph (Exhibit 2) of the property, and said that she was interested in buying the property.
Mr. Holmes had wanted to rent (the trailer) until it is ready for sale.
Discussion ensued about lowering the fine and whether the Board should re-hear the case.
Several Board members expressed objection to this request, and Vice Chairman Carlsson said
that the City already had at least $1300 involved in labor on this case. Member Linebarier said
that the Board needed to see some improvement in this property, and must have a firm
commitment before they could take any steps toward reducing the fine any further. Member
Lenko said that if the property was going to be used as a rental property than there was no
problem with the lien sitting on it as is. The only time the owner had to worry about the lien
was when the property was being sold. Vice Chairman Carlsson agreed with Member
Linebarier, and said that if the Board reduced the fine, there was nothing stopping Mr. Holmes
from selling the property to Ms. Crane with no lien. Mr. Holmes should show the City that he
could maintain the property, and come back to the Board in 6-12 months to request a reduction
in the lien. Vice Chairman Carlsson, seconded by Member Lenko, moved that the request
for a re-hearing for Barbra Ball, Case No. 95-58, be denied but Ms. Crane had the opportuni
to come back before the Board in 6 to 12 months for a re-hearing. Motion carried 7-0.
