Pensacola code enforcement orders daily fines, awards costs and continues one case
Summary
At a Jan. 6 hearing, the City of Pensacola Code Enforcement Authority ordered $25‑a‑day fines to begin for multiple properties found in violation, awarded $200 in court costs in one case that was later found compliant, and continued a long‑running case to Feb. 3 to identify the proper party for service.
Special Magistrate Matthew Hargraves and the City of Pensacola Code Enforcement Authority on Jan. 6 ordered daily fines to begin for several properties found out of compliance and awarded court costs in a case where the property was later brought into compliance.
The actions affect multiple properties across Pensacola, including orders to start $25‑per‑day fines on Jan. 6, 2026 for properties found in violation of the International Property Maintenance Code and municipal ordinances. In one case the authority found the property compliant at reinspection but awarded $200 in court costs to the city. One long‑running case involving a reportedly deceased owner was continued to Feb. 3 so the city can bring the appropriate party before the authority.
