Donald Grannan
WS City Ord. 13-2(b) Junk and Debris
Related Case Information
The Respondent was present.
Code Officer Guerra introduced the case and testified, "On June 25, 2020
I received a complaint regarding this resident having a large amount of
junk and debris in the driveway, also that there was a large truck parked
and the grass was high on the property. When I did go to the residence
to check for the violation Mr. Grannan came out to my truck to speak to
me. I told him that we received another complaint and this is an ongoing
thing. We get a complaint, we notice him, he cleans it up, and then it
goes right back to the way it was. Mr. Grannan advised he would clean it
up. He needed some more time and he and his wife were going through
some hardships financially at this time. He has done better in the past. A
few years ago he had another location for his items. Now he is going
backwards and everything is being stored at the house again. On June
26, 2020 I sent Notice of Code Violation to the owners of the property. On
July 9, 2020 the Notice of Code Violation was received. On August 10,
2020 I checked the property. The truck has been removed and the grass
has been cut in the back. The junk and debris violation still
persists. August 11, 2020 I posted the property and City Hall with the
notice of Code Board. I also sent certified and first class letter to the
owner of the property."
Code Officer Guerra showed photos from "Related Case Information."
Code Officer Guerra then testified, "I am recommending the Board find
the property in violation and impose a fine of $250.00 a day if found in
non-compliance. The owner should be given until September 15, 2020 to
comply."
Mr. Donald Grannan, 629 Sailfish Rd, Winter Springs, Florida
32708 testified, "The house has an in-law suite, the back house is rented.
We have a tenant back there so this is not really a single-family residence.
There is a fence now on the side...I am putting a gate on the edge of that
fence to match the fence." Mr. Grannan went on to note that the fence

and gate would be eight feet tall and discussion followed on commercial
vehicles, measures taken, and how best to avoid potential issues in the
future.
Attorney Nix noted the Code Enforcement Board was only dealing with
a violation of Winter Springs City Ordinance 13-2(b) for this hearing.
Mrs. Barbara Grannan, 629 Sailfish Road, Winter Springs, Florida
32708 testified, "I know in the report it said this has been going on for a
while. My husband rented a [storage] unit but the rent got too high...that
is the reason why he is doing what he is doing."

On July 30, 2020 I received a call from the daughter of the owner advising
that she is in an assisted living facility. She also advised the property was
part of a reverse mortgage and they are supposed to take over the
property. Her mother has been out of the house since August. She gave
me the number and I attempted to call them. They advised they could
not tell me anything about the property. I did advise them of the
