Summary

A North Miami special magistrate found violations at 14030 Biscayne Boulevard for an expired business tax receipt, expired certificate of use, and missing window and sliding‑door screens. The property representative said applications are pending; the magistrate ordered compliance by June 17 and warned of daily fines beginning then.

A special magistrate hearing in North Miami on May 6 found that the property at 14030 Biscayne Boulevard has multiple code violations including an expired business tax receipt (BTR), an expired certificate of use (CU) and missing window and sliding‑door screens.

Officer Daniel of the City of North Miami presented notices, certified mailings and photographs documenting unresolved citations that date back to mid‑2024 and earlier. Licensing manager Rafael Pedron told the magistrate the property has an application nearing completion but that several open permits must be closed before a BTR can issue; he estimated about 30 days for final processing once permits are cleared.

The property representative, identified on the record, told the hearing the team is waiting on inspections and closure of legacy permits and asked for more time. The magistrate acknowledged the circumstances but said the period of noncompliance has been substantial — the city’s records show the BTR lapse back to 2023 in at least one case — and found each violation proven.

Magistrate Rafael Suarez Rivas granted 30 days for the property to cure each cited violation, setting the abatement date at on or about June 17, 2026. The order includes the city’s standard $100 administrative cost and warns that daily fines will be imposed after the compliance date if the violations are not corrected: the magistrate cited $250 per day for some violations and up to higher amounts for others as allowed by code.

The magistrate accepted the city’s exhibits into the record and instructed the respondent to present any completed permits and a full compliance package to the city before the abatement date to avoid fines. No appeal or further procedural action was announced at the hearing.
