Martin told the board he will be effective Oct. 1 and will lead the county's code enforcement processes. \"I'm your new code enforcement manager for the Board of County Commissioners,\" Martin said. He described a long career in law enforcement and code enforcement in the region, including supervisory roles and work with state certification for code officers.

Martin told the board the office will include a field supervisor and four officers initially; the staffing level will be reassessed based on caseload and production. He said the division will emphasize education, assistance and proactive enforcement, and the office will relocate to a second‑floor customer area so residents can use a single point of contact for permitting and enforcement questions.

Board members welcomed Martin and asked about training and office location; Martin said the office would move to the second floor over the next few months and that he hoped to offer training to board members in August if appointments are finalized for vacant board seats.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Code Enforcement Board 06-26-25","oneSentenceSummary","John Martin introduced himself to the Code Enforcement Board as the new manager who will lead a supervisor and four officers and emphasize education and proactive compliance beginning Oct. 1.","taxTitle","Seminole County, Florida","taxId",5038,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6184941,"Seminole County orders property owner to remove rubbish by July 10 or face daily fines",189,2590000,2779000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f&start=2590&end=2779","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f/thumbnail_2590000.jpg","/articles/6184941/Seminole-County/Florida/Seminole-County-orders-property-owner-to-remove-rubbish-by-July-10-or-face-daily-fines","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6184941-6291cc5df7cf1c0b95f452ac3fd91e1e/orig.mp4?Expires=1770546225&Signature=ihAcUfTAZSIWz4~1ptQY8xSuJfOzl0KNrdA1YjBdwv9OPg40-c1qUuQFShZhmw0hTwsNTl5Y8Vr7cUBRtMFUj3ugcRKGJfP-meCvSllZDUqIPxDmck-7ODKmV2fXXxr74IzH1wX8t~YpqCOCmclA9qIaJTFlp4f1Rr3CVN7ZQXF~8m6E8SDFfwTDEdHwDy-kU0wBEKkAUH5UVBdRPUUZZPI-8X4aJ-BI6KK6l66wg6jkKp4yy48kTUFJ0aeRTM98CusYJa2sYECYDKV-B3uOZL5CvhtCwSFtUcOBLBcLXS73jL1zfrr68mCnkQYZJExYIhVcnOvoBn9Ig7UpbesL-Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Seminole County Code Enforcement Board on June 26 ordered respondent Leila Litter to remove rubbish from her property at 1302 Pressview Avenue by midnight July 10 or incur a $100 daily fine.

Hemingway told the board she spoke with the respondent's daughter, who said the household had been moving and hoped passersby would take reusable items; Hemingway advised the family to arrange a bulk pickup.

\"There has been a lot of improvement,\" Hemingway told the board, but she said rubbish remained at the June 25 inspection. The board accepted staff's recommendation setting the July 10 compliance deadline; the order specifies that if the respondent does not remove the rubbish by that date, a $100 fine will be imposed for each day the violation continues or is repeated after compliance.","The Code Enforcement Board gave one property owner until July 10 to remove rubbish or face $100 daily fines; code staff reported improvements but said remaining debris persisted.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6184944,"Code enforcement board fines property owners $9,200 after repeat rubbish violations",177,2299000,2476000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f&start=2299&end=2476","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f/thumbnail_2299000.jpg","/articles/6184944/Seminole-County/Florida/Code-enforcement-board-fines-property-owners-9200-after-repeat-rubbish-violations","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6184944-f3130c2a46465a1a1bff1b74b221a5c4/orig.mp4?Expires=1770546225&Signature=Bv44-kO~VNAxNUpW65Rb0LaLWpSe7QRl9poCJZfVkLL0JqrQSYyCzmhxhtIIPey6qpfZYsDF~a5G4US-pf5dLM-TCSAFSmQYLfuGu9c3FyM39V6WpvTLDz7W~RrWSim3AM4QdmkagGUM7QrgP9KtFqRdxDb7cTQv04hUjCsALGof1XiB-9ytXUaIEl5orbTflZgHF2gVaufRpVgPzXJ6Lm~9o3AJu2c8N9n5mJeoFJWGnheTCHXh5gSE9T9Lqfz2K3WDSRkkIP3hRHI~6Zjb3mGbstEEyLwQmKr39BCKmoVdVXhiMUfReOQhA4jJvc7iyNPz-lF6jSlIeIn4NRtXZg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Seminole County Code Enforcement Board on June 26 voted to impose a $9,200 fine on Trinity and Joshua Bailey for a repeat rubbish violation at 181 Langford Drive, Chuluota.

Officer Melissa Hill, Seminole County Sheriff's Office code enforcement (East Region), told the board the case is a repeat violation under Seminole County Code chapter 95, section 95.4 as defined in 95.3(a). Hill said her initial inspection was Dec. 19, 2023; the board issued a compliance order on Feb. 7, 2025; the property appeared compliant on Feb. 18 but a March 26 inspection showed the rubbish had returned. A follow‑up inspection on June 25 found the rubbish remained.

\"I had also contacted Waste Pro at the time to see if they had scheduled for a pickup. Waste Pro had said, no, they did not,\" Hill told the board, noting a tagged bulk pickup had not yet occurred. The staff recommended a fine of $100 per day for 92 days of repeat violation, totaling $9,200, with the fine to continue accruing at $100 per day until compliance.

Board members moved to accept staff's recommendation and voted in favor. The board's order imposes the fine for the days specified and allows fines to continue accruing until the property is brought into compliance. Hill said she had given the property owners her business card and asked them to contact her when they had complied.","The Seminole County Code Enforcement Board found Trinity and Joshua Bailey in repeat violation for rubbish at a Chuluota address and imposed a $9,200 fine covering 92 days of repeated noncompliance.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6184946,"Code board approves liens for three properties on consent agenda",337,1938000,2275000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f&start=1938&end=2275","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5084860-7dfc09ac8000afdda639d82d605d266f/thumbnail_1938000.jpg","/articles/6184946/Seminole-County/Florida/Code-board-approves-liens-for-three-properties-on-consent-agenda","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6184946-298800306d9ce8885a86e37a510e726a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770546225&Signature=kbwLrrR8b4JdY1q9Q8i9Yr8SBL4nA5V2e2100GFcCZcvGVCRjt2kV~9h5CnAb0RQmnCtOrjpzVdWe0qHC9-FLNCsYcbyEYHjG1uXUk2JwrS9rAaJdRUK9IeWmSQfiris0iC1GWw4Klrzim79iAMFPRNo9bvW7oNQzla7IUfViIswqgwPC2dKhdwV2JH~TmwdEpfM6Cjz2xQHtV2XhuKkNsHrFM5BH3cj2Xa4jZmmLDKu37-uzUs0k9CgwtHxYS3U1gN2935Mcajqwe6ee8IDzTKxVCn9V587C-fo1LR8wKfBPVQB6ijKt67c1jNEBLsNc6DYMZSn7m3ac2kIdzTKCw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Seminole County Code Enforcement Board on June 26 accepted staff recommendations and imposed liens on three properties listed on the meeting's consent items.

The board approved a recommended lien of $10,400 for 104 days of noncompliance in case 25‑11 (Victoria Gomez) at 3407 Holiday Avenue, Apopka. The board also approved two related cases for the same property owners at 936 Red Fox Road (25‑30 and 25‑31): a $4,500 lien for 45 days of noncompliance on one violation and an $11,250 lien for 45 days on a related violation. All fines were ordered to continue accruing at the per‑day rates shown in staff recommendations until each violation is corrected.

Code enforcement staff reported reinspections for the properties and told the board they had not confirmed compliance on the most recent on‑site checks. Board members moved and seconded acceptance of staff recommendations and voted to impose the liens as listed on the agenda.

Officer Melissa Hill, Seminole County Sheriff's Office code enforcement (South Region), said the county had cited both properties under Seminole County Code chapter 95, section 95.4 (defined in 95.3) for unsecured pools. \"The latch needs to be facing the pool, not on the opposite side,\" Hill said when explaining why both gates initially failed inspection.

In case 25‑17, respondent Betty W. Tanzer of 300 South Sweetwater Cove Boulevard told the board she purchased tools and secured the gate herself after her handyman was unavailable. Tanzer praised Hill and said of the officer, \"She is tough as nails.\" Hill presented inspection photos from Oct. 29, 2024, and follow‑up inspections in May 2025 showing the latch repositioned to face the pool and the yard secured. Staff had recommended a lien of $700 for seven days of noncompliance plus administrative costs; after discussion the board voted to close the case and dismiss accumulated fines.

In case 25‑29, Shanita Hemingway, a code enforcement officer with the Seminole County Sheriff's Office (South Region), said the property at 200 Crooked Oak Court had shown a chain and padlock at one point and later had a latch that was not pool‑facing and not high enough. Hemingway reported the property was brought into compliance on June 18, 2025. Staff's paper recommendation had sought a lien of $12,000 for 48 days of noncompliance; the board instead voted to reduce the lien to the total administrative costs — $118.74 for the clerk and $247.87 for code enforcement, a combined $366.61 — and approved that amount as the action on the record.

Board members commented that both respondents had taken steps to correct the hazards and that the evidence supported current compliance. The board's actions remove or substantially reduce the monetary penalties that staff had recommended but do not remove the underlying code requirements for pool gates: they must be self‑closing and self‑latching with the latch oriented toward the pool.

The board recorded the findings and instructed staff to file the appropriate orders for each property.","The Seminole County Code Enforcement Board found two Longwood property owners in compliance after they changed pool gate latches; the board dismissed accumulated penalties in one case and reduced another lien to administrative costs.","actionData","errors"]
