Officer Siegrist (who has inherited the case) presented the case and gave its history. He met with the property owners on site and significant progress has been made; he was on site with the deputy building official who is suggesting a six -month extension on the permit. Ms. Angela Schmitt, 1903 Jessica Lea Lane, spoke on the case. She presented photos showing the property's progress. Turner Construction is the contractor that was being used. Mrs. Schmitt said that they have volunteers working with them to complete the project. It was discovered that there is a conflict of interest to have Turner Construction working on the project because Mrs. Schmitt's mother is also helping. Her mother is a City of Orlando employee and Turner Construction does work for the city, thus creating a conflict. They are in talks with Home Depot to donate time, and there are more volunteers waiting to help. She continued showing photos of the project's progress. They have not made progress on the project since the end of February and are still waiting to hear from Home Depot as to whether they will be joining to complete the project. Chief Robert Pigman (spelling ?) of the City of Orlando Police Department is heading up the project and is in talks with Home Depot. He has heard nothing from Home Depot since the end of February. He has suggested that Mrs. Schmitt ask for six months to complete the room. Member Carrington asked if the project manager has a back -up plan if Home Depot falls through. Mrs. Schmitt answered that she did not know. She knows that there is manpower, she is just unsure about the materials from Home Depot. Chairman Godek asked if Mrs. Schmitt is requesting that the extension be six months from March 25, 2013, or six months from today's date. Mrs. Schmitt answered that it would be six months from today's date. Page 3 Chairman Godek asked if the City is okay with six month from today. Officer Siegrist replied that he was okay with the extension. Attorney Sneed said that the motion will simply move to extend the compliance date from March 25, 2013, to October 22, 2013, which is also the board's meeting date for that month. Vice - Chairman Lowery, seconded by Member Carrington, moved to extend the compliance date from March 25, 2013, to October 22, 2013. Motion carried unanimously.

Senior Mr. Rawa and Junior Mr. Rawa, 1902 Lauren Beth (the son), approached the podium to speak for the case. Chairman Godek asked why board should reduce fine. Junior Mr. Rawa responded that he had financial hardship, as well as health matters. Junior Mr. Rawa said he further explained he was not able to pay the fines due to financial hardship. He could not afford a new car, so was usually in the position of having to repair a vehicle. He is living on a VA stipend, has lost his wife, and is being treated for PTSD. Senior Mr. Rawa asked if the board had the April 10th memo from the Rawas. The board acknowledged that they have the memo. The Rawas have offered to deed the property to the City as payment for the liens. Junior Mr. Rawa said that he does not want to relocate outside of Ocoee. Member Osborne asked if Mr. Rawa was asking to leave off paying for the City's costs. Junior Mr. Rawa answered `no'.

Donating the land, however, is off the table according to the city manager, Mr. Gaines concluded. Further discussion ensued. Attorney Sneed advised that the board can do one motion for the cases as long as all four cases are mentioned in the motion.
