Paulette Del Grasso presented the city’s case citing worn asphalt, potholes, faded stripes and other parking-facility maintenance problems. \"There are broken faded wheel stops, potholes, faded asphalt and surface markings,\" Del Grasso said. The city requested 91 days for the parking work or a $100-per-day fine thereafter.

Michael Mann, the resort’s general manager and vice president, said the contractor applied for the permit in March and that progress has been slowed during permit review. Mann told the magistrate the contractor is awaiting documents and archive records the city has requested. \"The contractor we hired applied for the permit the time in March...they are not able to get the permit,\" Mann said, and asked for more time. The city advised Mann to confirm with his contractor about the city comments; the acting magistrate granted a 91‑day extension and suspended fines during that time, instructing the owner to contact the inspector if problems arise.

The magistrate treated a companion case for an adjacent folio the same way; both folios will be processed and were each given 91 days, with fines suspended pending progress. Mann said his crews had completed most of the other items and that they would continue to work through the permit process and archive requests.

Leonard Champagne opened the matter for the city, telling the magistrate the property had been altered without permits and that work included a new addition, a relocated laundry room, and converted storage spaces now used as inhabitable rooms. \"There have been work without permits, including but not limited to, new addition, laundry room relocation, closet converted into a room,\" inspector Jessica Martinez told the magistrate after visiting the site and reporting the unpermitted work and a lack of required certificates of occupancy.

Magistrate action: After the inspection testimony, the magistrate revoked the property's vacation‑rental license. \"It's revoked,\" the magistrate said on the record. The revocation was entered during the hearing (case CE25040123); the magistrate did not elaborate further during the on‑the‑record ruling.

What's next: The revocation takes effect as the administrative order entered at the hearing. The owner may pursue administrative appeal channels available under city rules or the municipal code. The city indicated it will proceed with additional related enforcement matters (separate citations were opened for occupancy without required certificates).","The special magistrate revoked the vacation-rental certificate for 3624 Northeast 16th Street after inspectors found unpermitted structural changes and occupancy issues; inspector testimony also cited additions and a relocated laundry room without permits.",{"_32":87,"_34":35,"_36":37,"_38":88,"_40":89,"_42":90,"_44":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},6206691,"Fort Lauderdale magistrate orders removal or permits, fines if unresolved for multiple violations at 1332 Citrus Isle",1326,853000,2179000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3761301-1be3fd9079b6ba92c3fbbb00f4c05fa4&start=853&end=2179","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3761301-1be3fd9079b6ba92c3fbbb00f4c05fa4/thumbnail_853000.jpg","/articles/6206691/Fort-Lauderdale/Broward-County/Florida/Fort-Lauderdale-magistrate-orders-removal-or-permits-fines-if-unresolved-for-multiple-violations-at-1332-Citrus-Isle","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6206691-1d244bc61f893afd38cdfdbc503387e6/orig.mp4?Expires=1769979343&Signature=UK-pzKVMBV6ITQvVhHSwSJb7YOzDeNlXnlMohqVmy2pygW16OrZyEQ2ErqRt5WnZ5k1t3O~cHQWPMcrYPJZ5RTESsiUcOXlamjrKO-A25vUs9Yk5ymTMqrOkPhEx~s6vzwaqvW4h99YTf-4V~x7pZy~hhoX2~kLiQoeu6w~EdAExlLtvqODK5qH3~pLLL-mxjKmUOsfB1hPZNFrPeYpNhAEjh3uDWk5Nj8Ag8UcNuseyyNSJ-s1HvzwbfZpxS5~JXM7Jo55YSxeXqYkjUbjdCKl8j170UcPgoS5STQBiX8JsnJgIrJlRYP0LlUY54AbnQHPUCN9OXlm~oRznHdAXbg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Fort Lauderdale code compliance presented three cases tied to 1332 Citrus Isle on June 10, and the special magistrate issued staggered compliance deadlines and potential fines across the matters.

In a case presented by Building Inspector Andrew Gebbia, the property was cited under the Florida Building Code (noted in the hearing as \"2023 105.1\") for work performed without required permits — specifically, a blue awning anchored to the house and driveway. Gebbia testified there was no record of a permit for the awning and said it was observed during an inspection on March 31. Gebbia recommended 63 days to comply or a $100-per-day fine. The owner, Walter W. Carnes, said he would remove or permit the structure; the magistrate granted 63 days. \"I'll give you 63 days,\" the magistrate told Carnes, noting fines would begin afterward.

A second case, presented by Inspector Gustavo Caracas, alleged a vessel docked at the RS-8 zoned property was being used as a live‑aboard, which the inspector said the zoning prohibits (citing 47-196B during testimony). Caracas said inspections and video evidence showed a person sleeping aboard at night; the city sought 10 days to evacuate the vessel or a $500-per-day fine. The property manager and owner acknowledged someone was living aboard. The owner told the magistrate the person aboard was recovering from a hysterectomy and requested leniency. The magistrate allowed 20 days \"because of the health concerns\" and told the owner the man who comes and goes to assist the woman may not stay overnight on the vessel. The magistrate warned that if the person returned after 20 days the city would treat it as a recurring violation with additional consequences.

A third matter, presented later by Mohammed Dam, cited illegal outdoor storage and other RS-8 zoning violations at the same address (including items stored at the front, sides and rear). The city requested 10 days for certain violations (or $100/day thereafter) and 28 days for others; the magistrate ordered 10 and 28‑day deadlines as reflected in the hearing and said the inspector would work with the owner about allowable items. Carnes asked for clarification about keeping personal furniture on a back porch; the magistrate said the inspector would advise what may remain.

Neighbors and a remainderman representative also spoke at the hearing. Mark Hermes, who said he lives at 1328 Citrus Isle, described ongoing problems and presented video and photo evidence to the magistrate alleging more serious criminal conduct tied to people associated with the property; he asked for immediate removal. The magistrate kept the orders focused on the zoning and code violations in front of the court and emphasized the separate limits of the magistrate’s authority on criminal matters and registered-offender issues.

Summary of orders and penalties: The magistrate ordered 63 days for the unpermitted awning (or $100/day thereafter); 20 days for removal/evacuation of the live‑aboard occupant (or $500/day thereafter) — with the man prohibited from staying overnight — and 10 to 28 days on outdoor-storage/landscape violations (or $100/day thereafter). Inspectors were instructed to re‑inspect and work with the owner on permitted items.

","Owner Walter W. Carnes was ordered to remove an awning or obtain permits within 63 days, to evacuate a live‑aboard from a vessel within 20 days or face $500/day fines, and to remove outdoor storage within 10 days in separate compliance cases heard June 10.",{"_32":99,"_34":35,"_36":37,"_38":100,"_40":101,"_42":102,"_44":103,"_46":104,"_48":105,"_50":106,"_52":107,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":108,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":109,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6206696,"Special magistrate finds public nuisance after shooting tied to 828 Southwest 16th Street short-term rental; $2,500 fine imposed",2562,2418000,4980000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3761301-1be3fd9079b6ba92c3fbbb00f4c05fa4&start=2418&end=4980","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3761301-1be3fd9079b6ba92c3fbbb00f4c05fa4/thumbnail_2418000.jpg","/articles/6206696/Fort-Lauderdale/Broward-County/Florida/Special-magistrate-finds-public-nuisance-after-shooting-tied-to-828-Southwest-16th-Street-short-term-rental-2500-fine-imposed","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6206696-71a42e46b21acf4f74e00aabb86de4e2/orig.mp4?Expires=1769979343&Signature=cnc~D7noeLrr4oMSbp5XHCX9cdcM~kfhS2B1r8qpqxq1OtOtdpZ~SyRHAl19nvq7JxxLIGZ2ZeGtbKE40uAeWArewPZKKNGgGodBflgOwExms00-kuOwdGuUB5c-AbtkVlhgVUrbOTE9C7~sIHHg2j32SWGWFtLxYC2DZBq2eHV21fjdGP3JRNKLMl5alW~mShJrctfqsz7ZePl7eomEtddT4qmrT048GwZS6~zfnEJQuSDjkZZYrMwbeyEY6Ddt74x18Oo-uP~61PN5hCet6LGAOYqvkABTDt7VVrMABWjDTrVbj5pnmNhe2BUdQOqa17r5J9uuw3R3eDAR9XU4cQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","A Fort Lauderdale special magistrate on June 10 found that activity tied to a short-term rental at 828 Southwest 16th Street constituted a public nuisance after multiple late-night police responses and a shooting that involved guests of the address, and imposed a $2,500 fine.

The finding followed testimony from Leonard Champagne, a city code inspector, and Don Geiger, homicide sergeant with the Fort Lauderdale Police Department, who described calls to the property, an on-site police response and a later shooting that involved patrons of the rental. \"There was a homicide that occurred…on May 19,\" Sgt. Don Geiger said during testimony. Champagne told the magistrate the property was operating as an Airbnb and that police had been called multiple times because a party got out of control.

The city argued the disturbances and repeated responses fit the municipal nuisance code, 18-1, which forbids maintaining property in a way that \"threatens or endangers the public health, safety or welfare.\" City attorney Ron Montoya Hassan and Champagne said the pattern of disturbances, pepper-spray injuries at the scene, and the return of patrons to the rental after police left supported an irreparable public-nuisance finding; the city asked the magistrate to impose a fine up to $15,000.

O'Neil Dror, the property manager who appeared on behalf of the owner, described attempts to manage the incident while abroad and said she repeatedly contacted guests and police. \"I was constantly on my cameras communicating back,\" Dror said, describing calls she made from Japan to try to clear the property and to urge officers to remain on scene.

Neighbors and nearby residents told the magistrate the property has been a recurring source of disturbance since the rental began operating months earlier. \"The police were there until 9 at night. It impacted my neighborhood greatly,\" neighbor Millicent Porter said. Neighbor Leo Singleton said his family has three young children and that the property hosted frequent parties that reached the adjacent driveways and pool areas.

Defense counsel argued that the shooting occurred off the property and that the owner could not be held responsible for a violent act committed in public by an unknown perpetrator. The owner’s attorney said the ordinance language focuses on boarded or vermin-infested buildings and urged dismissal.

Special Magistrate's ruling and penalties: After hearing testimony from the inspector, police sergeant and neighbors, the magistrate concluded the late-night disturbance and subsequent shooting met the code’s standard for a public nuisance and imposed a single fine of $2,500. The magistrate noted the city did not ask for immediate suspension of the rental license at this hearing and said a suspension would be a separate process requiring notice. \"I will find that there certainly existed a public nuisance that night,\" the magistrate said, then ordered the $2,500 fine.

What happens next: The city attorney indicated the city may pursue further enforcement — including a future licensing or suspension proceeding — but that any suspension would require separate notice and process. The magistrate advised the parties that fines already imposed will remain subject to later processes (including amnesty applications if the owner later seeks fee reductions) and that the owner retains appeal rights.

","A Fort Lauderdale special magistrate found a public nuisance after a May 19 shooting that involved guests of an Airbnb at 828 Southwest 16th Street and imposed a $2,500 fine; city sought up to $15,000 and discussed but did not request immediate license suspension.","actionData","errors"]
