OCCUPIED BY: |
Section(s): 5-1.105.1 Permit Required.
Patricia Shotto was sworn in. Special Magistrate Ross informed the public that she did know Ms. Shotto personally. Ms. Shotto said she did not put the windows in. She said she had been pricing windows but to replace them with impact resistant windows they were going to cost her at least $1,500.00 which she doesn't have. Special Magistrate Ross referred her to an organization called SELF to see if she could get some assistance.
BDI Coss said the City does not require impact windows but if she's going to replace them they will need to be energy efficient. Also, she will have to put shutters over them. If this is the route she wants to take she will have to have the permit revised.
The Special Magistrate extended the deadline for 90 days to allow for Mrs. Shotto to renew the existing permit, revise, and have it approved. If this is not complied by the next hearing date, January 11, 2017, the fines will be restarted and a lien placed on the property.
Code Compliance Manager Peggy Arraiz mentioned new ordinances for parking passed at the City Commission meeting and Ms. Mosley is working on putting a training session together to discuss how to handle them.
