The original citation included several items: barrels, tables, misc . junk and sheets of styrofoam. Ron Thomas , the Building Official and Code Enforcement Board Officer, was sworn in and stated that he had been a Mr. Peterlich ' s property today and that the man has obviously complied with the majority of the original citation . However, there is still a small amount of rubbish and 4 to 5 large sheets of styrofoam that need to be addressed. Mr. Thomas recommended that the Board give Mr. Peterlich two weeks to get the styrofoam stacked, covered and elevated off of the ground and also to clean up the remaining rubbish. Mr. Peterlich was present and sworn in. Mr. Peterlich stated that 2 weeks would give him adequate time to get everything into compliance. Mr. Carlsson was concerned that Mr. Peterlich could obtain more styrofoam and add it to the pieces that he already has. Mr. Peterlich stated that he could no longer obtain the styrofoam. Chairman Linebarier made a motion to issue Mr. Peterlich a Compliance Order, giving him until March 25 , 1985 to remove the remaining rubbish and to stack, cover and elevate the styrofoam. If Mr. Peterlich does not comply by the 25th of March, the case will be brought before the Board at the Aprill 8th meeting, at which time penalties may be considered. The motion was seconded by Frank Carlsson and the vote was carried unanimously . The Clerk prepared the Compliance Order, Chairman Linebarier signed the Order and a copy was furnished to Mr. Peterlich . OTHER BUSINESS The City Manager was sworn in and stated that he observed Mr. Setarum' s property prior to the meeting and that he is in compliance. There is still outstanding penalties against Mr. Setarum. However , the City is in litigation with Mr. Setarum at present . Mr. Carlsson made a motion to table the case until August 12 , 1985. If Mr. Setarum has not paid the penalties at such time, the Board will review the avenues it may take to re- solve the matter. The City Manager informed the Board of the progress with Ms. Reeves. This case was not brought before the Board, but taken directly to the Commission. The City Manager informed the Board that Ms. Reeves has accomplished quite a bit in getting her property cleaned up and feels that the progress will continue until everything on her property is in compliance with the code. L PAGE 2 MINUTES OF THE CITY OF OCOEE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD MEETING HELD MARCH 11, 1985 ORDER OF CONTINUANCE Kay Wood, # 84-48 and Leigh Sill , # 84-47 have been adminis- tratively dismissed. ORDER OF COMPLIANCE After much discussion the Board agreed that Ms . Howell is indeed concerned about the condition of her grove and that she has been very conscientious in keeping the City Manager posted on status . She is having a problem due to the small size of her grove . The freeze has caused much damage in many of the groves in this area. The people with the equip- ment to clean up her grove are working in larger groves and do not want to take on such a small job at this time . Chair- man Linebarier made a motion to issue Ms. Howell an Order of Continuance accompanied with a letter from the City Manager. This continuance will give Ms. Howell till May 13th, to clean up her grove . If Ms . Howell does not comply within that time, she must show reasonable proof that she has indeed tried to contract someone to do tile work. If no reasonable proof can be furnished to the Board, a Compliance Order will be the next step. Gary Carroll seconded the motion and the vote was carried unanimously. DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO JUNK, VEHICLE ORDINANCE After much discussion the Board directed the City Manager and his staff to re-draft the amendment to expand further on what constitutes a vehicle being considered junked and abandoned.
