The board’s order requires removal of inoperable vehicles or restoration to roadworthy condition and removal of scrap, appliances, and trash; the board authorized city abatement and lien recovery if the respondent does not comply within five days.

Inspector Daniel Cassey presented case 18-25 for 929 Bruce Avenue, describing overgrown vegetation, debris (including what appeared to be pilings or dock material in the driveway), and a posted notice that returned unclaimed by mail. The inspector said the owner reported lacking funds to remediate. The board ordered lot clearing, mowing, edging, and removal of debris within five days and authorized city mitigation and lien recovery if noncompliant.

Inspector Daniel Kasman presented case 20-25 for 131 Devon Drive, where demolition debris and a fallen silt fence were observed after a home demolition. Kasman said the property still had a pile of plywood and a deteriorating silt fence; the board ordered debris removal and silt-fence repair or replacement within five days and authorized city abatement and lien procedures if not corrected.

For Zonta of Palm Harbor LLC, represented by attorney Anthony Domenakis and petitioner Dennis Kappas, the board reduced the lien to administrative costs of $1,187.20 for a business tax receipt violation tied to 1808 Drew Street. Domenakis said the underlying issue arose because a previous tenant did not obtain a business tax license and that state records contained an address typographical error that kept notices from reaching his client. The board ordered the administrative cost amount payable within 30 days; if unpaid the lien reverts to its original amount.

For Oakmont Reserve Properties LLC, represented by David Covert, the board reduced the lien to administrative costs of $2,747.20 for lot-clearing and nuisance violations at 3010 Oakmont. Covert said the owner learned of the lien Aug. 14 when it interfered with a refinance, and that cleanup and repairs were completed by late October. The board set a 30-day payment deadline; if the reduced amount is not paid the lien will revert to the original amount.

Both motions passed on voice votes. City staff and the board discussed that prior compliance filings and inspections had occurred in each matter and warned petitioners that repeat violations could trigger elevated fines if new cases are opened in the future.","The Municipal Code Enforcement Board on Feb. 26 reduced liens to administrative costs for two petitioners: Zonta of Palm Harbor LLC (1808 Drew Street) and Oakmont Reserve Properties LLC (3010 Oakmont), with payment deadlines set at 30 days.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6306490,"Board accepts noncompliance affidavit for 1204 Clare Drive; order imposes fines",51,774000,825000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2437552-177872616bb55d5b6f726c3415c2847b&start=774&end=825","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2437552-177872616bb55d5b6f726c3415c2847b/thumbnail_774000.jpg","/articles/6306490/Clearwater/Pinellas-County/Florida/Board-accepts-noncompliance-affidavit-for-1204-Clare-Drive-order-imposes-fines","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6306490-e483809d695938d101aff37cc053df48/orig.mp4?Expires=1771140629&Signature=UrMFPmXeKsPc326RhNEY4l1DhckDWZBSZE9o9XhOGvZpxYgMaxqgb1qshOfi~vSgk6kM708G7Fr9dvNAdqxMdUwpU-8HQ~r6jrA08-phXd9c3ClmCj423Q7QFg5~gY9OQdwy6bu1w2mNHf-S8Kmq9hVmqBUZYpDrZ8WLaWlctvFqzsdFEBUYgGacm8F4PfGgjA5QR2JPbZi6tQEfKQ85dBeS00P83918peSWTpid4OznHbcNrwTLG6XzzCHO~UpsoMRUbeQvbuYNigtvg0Is6mmBJ5pit3T2TYwrARdZHnJUMMDxn82BJqIKi1P4927fnd665zqNWW9Oe~iSKYBGdw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Municipal Code Enforcement Board accepted an affidavit of noncompliance for the property at 1204 Clare Drive and issued an order imposing fines and authorizing the city to pursue liens and collection if fines remain unpaid.

Dixon reported no contact with the property owners.

Inspector Jensen (City of Clearwater Code Compliance) told the board the property’s exterior continues to deteriorate: eaves troughs are hanging, much of the roof shingling is gone, and exposed sheathing is present. Jensen said repeated attempts to contact the owner, Patricia Depriest, have been unsuccessful and neighbors reported she had not been seen recently. Jensen said prior efforts to connect the owner with city grant programs were unsuccessful because the owner would not participate.

A board member moved to accept the affidavit of noncompliance and to issue an order that imposes fines and authorizes the city to foreclose, collect, or settle a lien if fines remain unpaid three months after filing.

Inspector Stephen Burger of the City of Clearwater told the board he first noticed the freestanding sign in need of maintenance on Aug. 6, 2024, and that a notice of violation was mailed Sept. 9, 2024, with certified mail receipt on Sept. 19, 2024. Burger said the sign’s face panel was “peeling” and the structure showed mildew and rust. He told the board the store manager at Walgreens provided a work order showing the issue had been reported to the company on Aug. 7, 2024, but the face panel remained unrepaired as of a Feb. 24 site check even though the sign structures had been painted.

The board’s order states the respondent must remove peeling paint and rust, repaint or replace damaged parts, and remove or repair peeling lettering on the face panel by March 26, 2025. Inspector Burger recommended a fine of $150 per day for each day the violation continues. A board member moved to find the respondent in violation and to enter the corrective order; the motion passed on a voice vote.

The code cited for the case is Section 3-15.0.02 (sign maintenance), which requires all signs to be maintained in the form originally approved and free of mildew, rust, or loose material. The order notes the city may file a lien and pursue collection procedures if fines remain unpaid.","The Municipal Code Enforcement Board on Feb. 26 found a respondent in violation of sign-maintenance rules for a freestanding sign at 1880 N.
