| OWNER: Andre Tarraf 19021 SW Positano Way Port St. Lucie, FL 34986 |
TENANT: |
Section(s): 16-46 Maintenance of nuisance on property prohibited.
Section(s): 16-48 (9)(18) Nuisance as a Condition
Andre Tarraf was sworn in. He said on September 20, 2019 he had over 18,000 sq. ft. of vegetation cleared. On October 10 he received a letter from Code Officer Debevec thanking him for cleaning up the property. He claimed he never received the October 15th letter from Officer Debevec saying there was still some work that needed to be done including picking up a small pile of debris. He said this pile was not on his property, but Officer Debevec said it was and he was informed of this at the time she issued the letter.
Code Compliance Manger Arraiz explained that staff does not send anything other than the notice of hearing out certified; however, the letter was not returned by the post office so staff assumes it was received. After not complying within the time given, the City authorized the City's landscape maintenance contractor to clean up the property. She said there was a stabbing on this property and the police department requested code enforcement's involved. She said this is a perfect example of why the City Commission adopted the CPTED resolution.
The Special Magistrate found Andre Tarraf was in violation of Section(s) 16-46 and 16-48 (9) (18) and denied his appeal. She gave him 30 days to pay the bill. He has 30 days to appeal to the Circuit Court of St. Lucie County.

Felipe Rivas Ramos was sworn in. He said his elderly mother lives there. He pays the monthly alarm bill and he feels he shouldn't have to pay for the police department to check when the alarm goes off. This is a whole week of food for her.
Code Compliance Manager Arraiz said the department works with a company called Cry Wolf who administers the alarms, fines, and appeals. They contacted Staff about the new fine and Staff's position is that he had one appeal waived and should not be granted another one.
The Special Magistrate found Felipe Rivas Ramos was in violation of Chapter 14 Article II and ordered the fines to remain as is. She ordered the alarm system owner’s account be updated and shall retain the current false alarm count status of 2 false alarms.
