Monson of 1209 Deer Run, Hinter Springs, Florida 32708) arrived at the follo1-Ting conclusions of fact: 1. Herbert G. Monson resides at 1209 Deer Run, Winter Springs, Fl. 32708. 2. Herbert G. Monson was served .....i th a Notice of Violation and a :Iotice to Appear before the Board. 3. Herbert G. Monson did remove the sod from the City's right-of-vay in front of the aforesaid address between the sidewalk and the pavement and replace it with a wood chip mulch. 4. In performing the aforesaid work Herbert G. Monson did not obtain a permit for said 1-lOrk from the City of Hinter Springs. Having arrived at the foregoing conclusions of fact, the Board arrived at the following conclusions of law: 1. Sec. 14-1 (M) defines a street "including all of the land lying bet.....een the right-of-way lines as delineated on a plat showing such street I' , a~d the area between the sidewalk and the pavement is including in a "street. " 2. The excavation of the sod and replacement by mulch constitutes a violation of Sec. 13-1 of the municipal code in that it was u~lawful for r~. 110nson to have done such work without first procuring a permit authorizing sa~e from the City Councilor an official who has been designated by the City Council to issue such a permit. After arriving at the foregoing conclusions of law it is ORDERE~ BY THE Board as follows: 1. Herbert G. Monson is hereby directed to remove the mulch and replace the mulch with sod in the area .....hich was disturbed to the same condition as existed prior to hIs constr~J_ction -r,'Jor1\.. i'.!r. rvlonsor! is granted B, period of 30 days v:heJ:"e~n to p:2~form said ivork. 2. Upon failure to do so at the end of 30 days a levy of $50.00 per day shall be placed against the property (1209 Deer Run, Hinter Springs. Florida 32708) and if and when such le\~ mrrounts to $1,000 or mOY'e the City Attorney is directed to file a claim of lien and foreclose on same.

City of ~'Iinter Spri.ngs Dear Dick: . This office has been retained by Colonel and Mrs. Monson to represent them with regard to their placing mulch on property without a permit allegedly in violation of City Ordinance 13-1. I have reviewed this Ordinance and dispute the existence of even a prima facie case against them~ More importantly, I think the implications of pursuing this matter must have been ignored. ~13-2 of the Ordinances defines sidewalks as being a portion of the street intended for the use of pedestrians; therefore, the city must be considering the property in question as ~streetr'. If the property in question is a dedicated street, then it is the city's obligation to maintain same and arguably would have to have paved same pursuant to your ordinances which require streets to be paved. I think the proper classification of the property involved is "dedicated public area" (see ~14.98). Dedicated public areas are not covered by ~13.1. Consequently, the city has no legal authority to pursue this natter. If the city persists in its position that the property involved is street, I will have to recommend to my client that he remove the mulch and delG:lnd that the city provide and maintain grass for him. e e e e S"WAN"N AXD HADDOCli:. Mr. Richard Rozansky November 11, 1982 Page T\'lO Additionally, I would hasten to point out that the violation alleged is not at all consistent with the ordinance cited. ~13.l states: "l-t shall be unlawful for any pers.on to do any construction or repair work. . . or to dig up or to dig into. . without a permit." That section goes on to explain how you have to replace that which you dig up in the same condition. ~13.2 requires a surety bond. S13.3 refers to restoration and S13.5 would have required Col. Monson to erect safe and sufficient barricades while working pursuant to the permit. If the city's strained interpretation is to be carried to its logical conclusion, an owner needs a permit to dig weeds or plant trees and he must erect a barricade while he is digging or planting. I think a logical reading of this ordinance will show that it was intended to protect the city from unauthorized digging in the road bed or sidewalk for the purpose of laying or repairing pipe. At this point, I believe the city is violating Mr. Monson's civil rights or in the alternative is offering to accept main- tenance responsibilities it had not contemplated. I would hope that this matter could be terminated without further expense or aggravation for the Monsons. Thanking you for your attention to this matter.
