Sea Club Ocean Resort granted 91‑day extension to finish rear parking work; city suspends fines during permitting delay
Summary
Sea Club Ocean Resort (former Jolly Roger Hotel) received a 91‑day extension to complete rear parking-lot repairs and the magistrate suspended fines during that period; the owner said permit review involves archived city records and pledged to proceed.
The Sea Club Ocean Resort Hotel was given 91 days on June 10 to finish repairs to two rear parking lots, and the special magistrate suspended fines during that period while the owner works through permitting issues.
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.
