CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS,FLORIDA MINUTES CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD REGULAR MEETING-AUGUST 27,2013 PAGE 8 OF 10 Assistant City Attorney Kate Latorre agreed and added, "If he is working with a willing tenant, a tenant can grant consent to come onto the property, even though they don't own the property. So, we would just presume that they go unfixed, until they call and say `We fixed it, come check it out'." Board Member Wentz then inquired, "So, his claim also that you have no jurisdiction is totally false, and obviously you do, is that correct?" Inspector West concurred, "That is correct". Further discussion ensued on if the structure was inhabitable; needing a Building Official to inspect the property; the new tenants or owners not allowing City Officials onto the property; that the International Property Maintenance Code would qualify the property as uninhabitable; and that from a street view, the carport and window Violations had not been corrected to date. In addition, Board Member Kaprow inquired, "Is a property in this condition a public safety hazard?" Assistant City Attorney Latorre answered, "It is certainly possible. But, that call would have to be made by a Building Inspector or Building Official to opine on the structural integrity of the building." Assistant to the City Clerk Beaudet swore in Inspector West and Captain Deisler whom provided Testimony during tonight's Meeting. Captain Deisler noted, "Everything he (Inspector West) stated in his testimony was accurate. Mr. Sanchez has not followed through with any of the things that he was asked to do by me or him (Inspector West) and he is still M.I.A. (Missing In Action) as far as these issues are concerned." Chairperson Fisher then referenced the washer machine drain pipe and asked, "Is it dumping drain water directly into the yard?" Inspector West replied, "Yes, Sir. It empties directly into the yard." Discussion. NOTE: The Respondent was not present. "I MOVE TO FIND THE RESPONDENT IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY CODE AND ORDER THAT THE RESPONDENT, MR. ANGELO SANCHEZ AND RAQUEL TAVARES, BE GIVEN UNTIL SEPTEMBER THE 6TH, (2013) TO CORRECT THE VIOLATION. IN THE EVENT THE RESPONDENT FAILS TO COMPLY BY THIS DATE, A FINE IN THE AMOUNT OF TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS ($250.00) FOR THE FIRST DAY — RETROACTIVE TO AUGUST 27TH, (2013); AND TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS ($250.00) FOR EACH DAY THE VIOLATION CONTINUES THEREAFTER SHALL BE IMPOSED."

INSPECTOR WEST CONCURRED AND NOTED, "I WAS ASKING FOR SEPTEMBER 16TH IN MY RECOMMENDATION." NEXT, BOARD MEMBER WENTZ SAID, "I WOULD LIKE TO AMEND THAT TO READ THAT THEY ARE GIVEN UNTIL SEPTEMBER 16TH." AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION BY BOARD MEMBER WENTZ. SECONDED BY BOARD MEMBER GILTZ.
