OC 3711 LLC found not in compliance; magistrate orders administrative fees and records lien
Summary
A property owned by OC 3711 LLC was found not in compliance at a first compliance hearing. The special magistrate ordered administrative fees and noted prior orders imposing fines and liens remain in effect; a contractor said seawall work could be completed in about 90 days once permits and panels are in place.
The special magistrate found the property listed as OC 3711 LLC not in compliance and entered an order imposing administrative fees while noting prior fines and liens in the county record.
City staff explained the owner had been given compliance dates in prior hearings related to five violations tied to storm damage from hurricanes Ian and Nicole in late 2022. The city re-inspected and found the property remained in violation as of the compliance date.
An individual identifying himself as Ankeet (no last name provided) attended the hearing; he said he was acting as a contractor on-site but did not have authorization to fully represent the owner. The city called a witness, AnK Grama (owner of Above Code Marine), who said his firm had been contracted to install a new seawall and had engineering from CRA engineers. He said he believed the FDEP emergency order application was completed in February and that panels would take six to eight weeks to arrive after permits are in hand; he estimated 90 days of work once panels arrived.
City staff told the magistrate the owner previously reported repairs complete but an inspection found they had not been. Evidence in the packet included photos showing missing or failing seawall sections, a collapsed pool deck corner, and washouts along the north property line.
The magistrate said the matter was a first compliance hearing intended to perfect the record that violations remain unresolved even though orders imposing fine and lien already exist. The magistrate found the property not in compliance and ordered administrative fees of $805.53 (as stated on the record) to be paid within 30 days and entered order number 11 for the case. The magistrate also reiterated that prior orders imposing liens are recorded in public records.
The contractor witness said he expected to place an order for seawall panels and begin construction after permits are issued; he told the magistrate he anticipated panels would take six to eight weeks to arrive and that installation would be finished within about 90 days once materials were on site. The magistrate closed the hearing with the finding of noncompliance and the administrative-fee order, and directed that the matter continue in the enforcement process.
