NEW BUSINESS:
CASE #92-CE-0784 - Mary Lyn Johnson - Weeds in excess of two (2)
feet. Section 10-43. Code Enforcement Officer Beverly Kinney-
Johnson reported the violation was first observed on September 22,
1992 and was to be corrected by October 13, 1992. Attempts to
notify property owner failed, therefore, Legal Ads were placed in
the Daytona News Journal. Photographs were presented to the Board
for review. Upon reinspect ion of the property on February 18,
1993, Mrs. Johnson found that no correction had been taken and
recommended that the violator be given until March 1, 1993 to
correct the violation or a fine of twenty-five dollars ($25.00) per
day be imposed.
Mrs. Strong moved to drop this case because some things in the City
aren't kept up by the City themselves, there own property, so I
can't see doing this to someone else.
Krista Storey, City Attorney, interjected that Mrs. Strong's
comment of the lack of enforcement or severity of enforcement
against other property is not relevant and the motion must be based
on the facts.
Mrs. Strong's motion stood.
CARRIED 4-3.
Seconded by Mrs. Delnigro. Motion
CASE #93-CE-0002 - Daniel C. and Michelle W. Troian - Uncontained
trash in and around garbage/trash enclosure. Code Enforcement
Officer Beverly Kinney-Johnson reported the violation was first
observed on January 4, 1993 and was to be corrected by January 14,
1993. Photographs were presented to the Board for review. Upon
reinspections of the property on January 14, 1993, February 16,
1993 and February 18, 1993, Mrs. Johnson observed that no
corrective action had been taken and recommended that the violators
be given until March 1, 1993 to correct the violation or a fine of
thirty dollars ($30.00) per day be imposed.
Mr. Schmidt, after hearing the testimony presented and the
recommendation of Staff, moved in reference to Case Number 93-CE-
0002 that a violation of Section 717.02 of the Edgewater Code of
Ordinances does exist and the alleged violator has committed the
violation. After considering the gravity of the violation, any
actions taken by the violator to correct the violation, and any
previous violations committed by the violator, further moved that
the violator be given until March 1, 1993 to correct the violation
and that a fine of $30.00 per day be imposed for each day the
violation continues past that date. Seconded by Mrs. Borner.
Motion CARRIED 7-0.
