Observation: Dredging of Wetlands. No other history was provided.
Code Enforcement Supervisor Simon, having been sworn, gave a brief history of the above Cases
and presented pictures. A discussion ensued.
Leah Proffit, having been sworn, gave a brief history of the property and the investigation by the
Department of Environmental Protection. She stated that no restoration has been done on this
property. The berm and swale are fine, however there has been some displacement of water due to
the fill dirt used at this property. Irreparable damage can not be determined as the lake is still too
high to evaluate the damage. A discussion ensued.
Attorney O'Quinn inquired if Department of Environmental Protection would be resolving the "Fine
Order" with the homeowners.
Leah Proffit stated that a "Consent Order" would be issued through the Department of Environmental
Protection. This is a document which outlines restoration requirements, and it is an enforcement
document. It will be issued to the Contractor, George Bori, Groundtek (brother of Albert Bori). A
discussion ensued.
Attorney O'Quinn stated that the Florida Statutes, 162.09(2), provides for a one time fine of
$5,000.00 provided that the damage is irreparable or irreversible. Based upon the testimony tonight,
he did not feel that the Board can levy such a fine at this meeting.
Mr. Robert C. Reid, having been sworn, stated that the reason that the "fill" was put into that area
was to prevent damage to his retaining wall and swimming pool. He was unaware that a permit was
required to do this type of work. He also stated that he is willing to comply with the Board's
decision. He assured the Board that all of the aquatic vegetation has grown back just as it was before.
A discussion ensued.
Mr. Albert Bori, Groundtek, having been sworn, stated that he was willing to accept total
responsibility for this problem and that the person who had agreed to perform this work was no longer
with his business.
Member Skiles, seconded by Vice Chairman Lenko, moved in Case 97-108 and 97-109 to find the
respondents in violation of LDR Article VII, Section 7-4B, 51-21A,B and to issue a six month
extension which would run concurrently with the Department of Environmental Protection's
extensions. At the end of this period of time, that the Board be apprised of the results by the
Department of Environmental Protection. A discussion ensued. Motion carried 6-0.
