Deltona City Council Reviews Multiple Code Compliance Cases for Property Violations

The Code Enforcement Board meeting held on February 13, 2025, in Daytona Beach focused on several cases concerning property compliance issues. The meeting began with procedural updates and a motion to ensure ongoing communication between board members and property owners.

The first significant case discussed was Case 45, involving Pablo Raffo Hilliard. Inspector Garcia reported that the property was found to be in noncompliance due to unauthorized construction activities, including the installation of new electrical outlets and windows without the necessary permits. Hilliard's representative, Ruben Munoz, stated that they had applied for the required permits and requested additional time for compliance. The board agreed to a motion for a compliance review at the next cutoff date.

Next, Case 49 involved Gary Holt, who faced issues with outside storage and property damage. Holt explained that he was in the process of evicting tenants who had caused damage to the property. The board acknowledged his efforts and set a compliance deadline for March 13, 2025, allowing him time to address the property's condition.

Case 50 featured Riverview Commercial of Daytona Beach LLC, represented by Ejaz Ahmed. The case was opened due to work done without a permit. Ahmed informed the board that he had applied for the necessary permits and was awaiting further instructions from the city. The board recommended a compliance review at the next meeting.

Finally, Case 51 involved a property under the Trust LLC, where tenant Mac Robinson attended on behalf of the owner. The board noted that Robinson lacked the authority to represent the owner fully. A motion was made to find the case in noncompliance, with a requirement for the owner to provide proof of responsibility for repairs at the next meeting.

The meeting concluded with a summary of the cases discussed and the importance of maintaining communication between property owners and the board to ensure compliance with city regulations. The next meeting is scheduled for March 13, 2025, where updates on these cases will be reviewed.
