Owner told to obtain fence permit after denial; $2.50/day fine runs from April 20, 2025
Summary
Magistrate ratified an earlier finding that a fence was installed without a permit and set the $2.50-per-day fine to run from the April 20, 2025 denial; owner was instructed to reapply for a permit and was given guidance to work with building staff.
Magistrate Suarez ratified a prior order concluding that a fence at the property owned by Draco Romanil Dunez was installed without a permanent permit file and that the permit application was denied on April 20, 2025.
Code officer Jonathan Lemestri presented photographic evidence and permit history showing the permit application was abandoned after six months of inactivity. The owner, Draco Romanil Dunez, said he believed submission of the application completed the process but acknowledged he had not followed up to address corrections. The magistrate explained the fine will run from April 20, 2025 (the date of denial) at $2.50 per day until the permit is obtained and encouraged the owner to coordinate directly with building staff to reapply and supply required measurements and documents.
The magistrate told the owner to consult staff, as permit corrections typically involve zoning and building review steps that must be addressed in sequence.
