Department:
County Attorney
AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval of code enforcement lien settlement agreement with Daniel & Jennifer Ganim.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
The County had a code enforcement lien ansmg from a violation involving unpermitted
construction/demolition. The Ganims obtained an after the fact permit 13 days after the fme was
imposed but through some miscommunication did not obtain a final inspection. As of September 30,
2003, the fme had totaled $11,200.00. Because of the Ganims' prompt efforts to obtain an after the
fact permit, staff has negotiated a proposed settlement of $750.00 which represents the daily fine
accrued at the point the after-the-fact permit was obtained plus the administrative costs routinely
imposed by the Special Master in all cases that are brought forward for a hearing.
