Case Against Joan Sawaske Continued to Dec. 19 for Power-of-Attorney Service Issues
Summary
The board continued a penalty hearing in case 24-86129 involving property maintenance roof violations to Dec. 19, 2025, after staff confirmed power-of-attorney information for the respondent.
The Punta Gorda Code Enforcement Board on Oct. 21, 2025, agreed to continue the penalty hearing in case number 24-86129 (alleged roof maintenance violations at 1580 San Marino Court) to the Dec. 19, 2025, board meeting after staff provided updated power-of-attorney information for the respondent.
Meredith Achtenberg, co-compliance officer, reported that staff had obtained the necessary power-of-attorney details for the respondent’s representative and asked for a continuance so the party can be properly noticed. Nick Clark, Code Supervisor, requested a 60-day continuance at the interim senior attorney’s direction; the board moved to continue the hearing to the Dec. 19 meeting.
No finding on the underlying substance of the roof allegation was made at this hearing; the matter will return on Dec. 19 for further proceedings.
