Magistrate reduces fines for North Eleventh Street property; owner given six months to pay
Special Magistrate Jennifer De Peschke on March 5 reduced the outstanding daily fines on a code-enforcement matter for 432 North Eleventh Street after the property owner brought the structure into compliance.

City evidence showed a notice of violation issued May 24, 2024, and an order finding violation issued Sept. 11, 2024. The property was reportedly brought into compliance on Feb. 18, 2025; staff calculated total fines of $6,420 and estimated administrative charges of approximately $1,176.65. Staff offered before-and-after photographs and inspection reports.

Respondents Daryl Wilson Sr. and Christopher Wilson Sr. appeared and said they completed stucco and painting work necessary to meet the code requirements. The magistrate accepted city photographs dated Dec. 16, 2024, and Feb. 18, 2025, and noted the property was in compliance at the time of the hearing.

After accounting for administrative costs and the property’s corrected condition, the magistrate reduced the assessed fines and left a remaining amount of $1,001.76 to be paid within six months. The magistrate said the reduction reflected efforts to bring the property into compliance and granted the owner time to arrange payment; staff will accept partial payments but does not establish a formal payment plan.
