The Special Magistrate Hearing held on June 18, 2025, in Fort Pierce addressed several code violations, resulting in fines and compliance orders for property owners. The meeting focused on parking citations and property maintenance issues, with multiple cases reviewed.
In the first case, Cecilia Corridott Anderson was found in violation of parking regulations, leading to a total fine of $78, which includes a $50 fine, a $10 administrative fee, and an $18 late fee. The city presented photographic evidence of the violation, which was confirmed by the officer involved. Failure to pay the fine within 15 days will result in the case being forwarded to the County Court.
Subsequent cases involved similar parking violations at JC Park, with two additional citations resulting in fines of $78 each. The officers provided photographic evidence for both cases, and the magistrate confirmed the existence of violations, reiterating the consequences of non-payment.
A notable case involved a property at 603 Azalea Avenue, where the owner, Mark Newman, was ordered to address a violation related to protective treatment of shutters. The magistrate granted 30 days for compliance, with a potential fine of $250 per day for non-compliance.
Another significant case involved Goodfellas Pizza, which was operating without a required certificate of use. The business was given 15 days to comply or cease operations, with fines of $250 per day for continued violations.
Lastly, a nuisance violation was reported for a property owned by O'Reilly Automotive Stores Inc. The property was deemed overgrown and a threat to public safety. The owner was given 7 days to rectify the situation, with fines of $100 per day for non-compliance.
The hearing underscored the city's commitment to enforcing code regulations and maintaining community standards, with all violators granted a 30-day right to appeal their decisions.
