AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Discussion and direction at the request of the property owner, Alicia C.
Geer, for a reduction in the outstanding code fines imposed in code case CE07090260.
ITEM BACKGROUND: As a result of Code Case CE07090260, an Order Imposing Fine and Lien was
recorded as a Lien on behalf of the County on August 5, 2009. After receiving a demolition permit for
FEMA compliance (14303737), completing the work, and passing all required inspections on January 13,
2015, Ms. Geer achieved compliance.
As a result, a daily fine of $150.00 per day accrued for 2028 days (June 25, 2009 - January 13, 2015), for a
total fine amount of $304,200.00. To date, the costs incurred in prosecuting the case are $371.62 and
continue to accrue until the case is closed. Therefore, the current amount of the Monroe County Lien is
$304,571.62 ($304,200.00 fines and $371.62 costs).
A letter was sent to the property owner February 21, 2015. This letter included the maximum fine reduction
allowed by staff per resolution 148-2008; $76,421.62 ($76,050.00 fines and $371.62 costs).
On February 23, 2015, staff received a request from Ms. Geer to appear at the March 18, 2015 BOCC

SUBJECT: Request for additional reduction in fines CE07090260, 229 ABERDEEN CT KEY LARGO
SUMMARY:
The County has received a request from Alicia C. Geer, the property owner, to address the BOCC, asking them to
further reduce the amount of fines beyond Staff s authority.
CASE CE07090260 BACKGROUND:
On September 20, 2007 the property owners applied for and were issued a permit (07304120) for a Flood
Insurance Inspection of enclosed areas below base flood elevation for the renewal of their flood insurance policy
and FEMA compliance. On October 15, 2007 the subject property was inspected. A community inspection report
and letter of deficiencies, giving the property owner 60 days to achieve compliance, was mailed to property owner
October 17, 2007. Research revealed no demolition permits or requests for reinspection, therefore on November
13, 2008 a reminder letter was mailed certified mail giving the property owner 30 days to achieve compliance
before a referral to code compliance was made. The certified mail was signed for by the property owner on
November 15, 2008.
On January 8, 2009 the Floodplain Administrator referred the case to the code compliance department. As a
result, a Notice of Violation/Notice of Hearing was mailed to the property owner on January 12, 2009 via certified
mail. The mail item was returned to the County unclaimed, Therefore, the subject property was posted on March
20, 2009 for the property owners to appear at the April 30, 2009 Special Magistrate Hearing.
The hearing was held and the Special Magistrate found the property owner in violation of Monroe County Code
and imposed a compliance date of June 18, 2009 with a review hearing June 25, 2009 if compliance was not
achieved. Compliance was not achieved and a review hearing was held June 25, 2009, and Special Magistrate
imposed a daily fine of $150.00 to accrue beginning on June 25, 2009.
Additionally, the Order Imposing Fine and Lien was recorded as a Lien on behalf of the County on August 5,
2009.
On July 2, 2014 the property owner was sent a Notice of Motion/Notice of Hearing certified mail for a hearing to
be held July 17, 2014. The certified mail was signed for by the property owner on July 3, 2014. A hearing was
held and the Special Magistrate issued an Order Authorizing Foreclosure.
On August 13, 2014, the Building Department received a permit application for demolition for FEMA compliance.
The permit (14303737) was issued on September 15, 2014 and the work was completed and passed required
inspections on January 13, 2015, thereby achieving compliance.
As a result, a daily fine of $150.00 per day accrued for 2028 days (June 25, 2009 - January 13, 2015), for a total
fine amount of $304,200.00.
Per F.S. §162.07(2), if the local governing body prevails in prosecuting a case before the enforcement board, it
shall be entitled to recover all costs incurred in prosecuting the case before the board and such costs may be
included in the lien authorized under s. 162.09(3). To date these costs are $371.62 and continue to accrue until the
case is closed.
Therefore the current amount of the Monroe County Lien is $304,571.62 ($304,200.00 fines and $371.62 costs),
and a letter was sent to the property owner February 21, 2015. This letter included the maximum fine reduction
allowed by staff per resolution 148-2008; $76,421.62 ($76,050.00 fines and $371.62 costs)
On February 17, 2015 staff received a request from Ms. Geer to appear at the March 18, 2015 BOCC meeting.
STAFF RECON01ENDATIONS:
Accept the reduced amount of $76,421.62 ($76,050.00 fines and $371.62 costs), for 60 days and provide a Full
Satisfaction and Release of Lien upon payment. After 60 days amount will revert to the full amount.

Dear Flood Insurance Customer:
Effective December 1, 2000, changes were made to your Flood Insurance
Policy to support a Community Inspection Procedure of the National
Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The requirements of the Community
Inspection Procedure will only apply to your building if it is in a
Special Flood Hazard Area and has been identified as a possible
violation of your community's floodplain management ordinance. The
inspection procedure was established to help local officials in your
community verify that structures comply with the community's
floodplain management ordinance and to ensure that property owners
pay Flood Insurance premiums that accurately reflect the risk of
flooding.
Local officials in your community have identified your building as
being a possible violation of the community's floodplain management
ordinance. An inspection of your building by the community is a
requirement before your current Flood Policy can be renewed.
You are responsible for contacting the community to arrange for the
inspection of your building. If your property is located in
unincorporated Monroe County, contact the Growth Management Division
of Monroe County at (305) 289-2518 to make an appointment for your
inspection. Property owners in the Village of Isalamorada should
contact the Village's Building Department at (305) 664-2345.
Property owners in the City of Marathon should contact the city's
Building Department at (305) 743-0033.
Two copies of the Community Inspection Report will be provided to you
after the inspection. One copy of the report must accompany your
renewal bill and premium to permit the renewal of your Flood Insurance
Policy. We will review the information provided by the inspection
report to ensure that your policy is rated correctly. If it is
discovered your policy is rated incorrectly, you will be given the
choice of paying additional premium or accepting lower limits of
coverage.

DATE OF INSPECTION: October 16, 2007
DATE: October 17, 2007
Enclosed please find two (2) Community Inspection Reports required by the National
Flood Insurance Program in order for you to renew your flood insurance policy. One
Inspection Report must be submitted with your flood insurance renewal Premium.
The other report is for your records. YOUR FLOOD INSURANCE WILL BE
RENEWED BY RETURNING ONE OF THE ENCLOSED COMMUMTY
DUPECTIONREPORTS.
Additionally, this letter will serve to report the findings of the community inspection
that occurred on October 16, 2007 which provided you with the community inspection
report for your National Flood Insurance renewal. During the inspection the
following deficiencies were observed:
(l. The enclosure is finished:
There is paneling, wainscoting and tiling, in the enclosed area below the base
flood elevation. Section 9.5-317(b)(1)d.(iii) require materials used below base
flood meet the standards outlined in FEMA's Technical Bulletin 2-93 "Flood
Resistant Materials Requirement". This Technical Bulletin specifies that these
materials are meant to exclude the use of materials and finishes normally
associated with living areas. The paneling, and tiling are associated with
living areas and the pannelingl is not flood - sistant.
EXHIBIT
b=o4sp5pron
0 0
Solution:
Remove the paneling, and all other interior finishes. If the file is clay tile it is
listed on the FEMA 2-93 Technical Bulletin and may remain
(2. The enclosed area is air conditioned
Section 9.5-317(b)(1)d.(iv) states: "Enclosed areas below elevated building
must be void of utilities that service the building and cannot be temperature
controlled".
Solution:
Remove the A/C.
(3. The area has been constructed for habitational uses
Section 9.5-317(7) of the Monroe County Floodplain Management Ordinance
states: "No enclosure below the base flood elevation shall be constructed or
equipped for such uses as a kitchen, dining room, family room, recreation room,
office, bedroom, bathroom or workshop." The limited storage space has been
constructed as a bedroom and bathroom Enclosed areas below elevated
buildings with a floor below base flood elevation may only be approved for
limited storage, parking of vehicles and entryways. Limited storage is defined
as the storage of lawn mowers, rakes, wheelbarrows and similar outdoor
equipment. Limited storage does not apply to household items such as
furniture and appliances.
Solution:
Remove the finishes, bathroom partitions, including stud wall frames, plumbing,
plumbing fixtures and piping, sinks, vanities, refrigerator, appliances, cabinets
and coutertops, bathroom, bedroom, funiture and all electrical located below
base flood elevation and return to "limited storage and parking only. No
habitation, no plumbing, electric or mechanical equipment, no bathroom
partitions, or finishes." All areas where plumbing and piping is removed must
be repaired. Pour concrete into and over where the plumbing was in the floor,
and concrete or cbs blocks over the openings where the plumbing was in the
11- -". ..
1*1
C�7
walls so as to have continuous floor and walls where the remains of the
plumbing are no longer visible.
(4. The enclosed area is Partitioned into separate rooms
The Monroe County Floodplain Management Ordinance Section 9.5-
317(b)(1)d.(iv) states the "interior portion of an enclosed area below an elevated
building may not be partitioned off into separate rooms, except that garages may
be separated from storage and entryways."
Solution:
Remove the partitions walls, around the bathroom including the stud walls.
The partition wall separating the two rooms was originally shown on the plans
for the enclosure therefore, you are not required to remove that partition wall.
(S. There are insuftlent Rood vents
Section 9.5-3170(1)d.(iii) require the walls of any enclosed area below base
flood elevation be constructed with openings which permit the level of
floodwaters within the enclosed area to match the rising and falling of
floodwaters on the outside of the structure. A minimum of (2) openings located
on separate walls (not in doors) shall be provided having a minimum total NET
OPEN AREA of one (1) square inch for each square foot of enclosed area,
where the enclosed area is calculated by outside dimensions. Openings shall be
situated such that the bottom of each opening is no higher than (1) foot above
finished grade.
Solution:
Your enclosure is 672 square feet and you haveno flood vents. You must instll
672 square inches of NET OPEN AREA flood vents. If you apply louver
covers you reduce NET OPEN AREA and you would have to adjust the number
or size of the vents according to the manufacturer's specification for NET
OPEN AREA for the vent you choose. However, the original plans were
approved with breakaway walls construction. Therefore, it is not necessary
to correct the vent area if you choose not to. You may wish to consult with
your insurance agent. Your flood insurance premium may be higher and
there may be a cost benefit to install flood vents. If you decide to install the
correct amount of NET OPEN AREA vents, please call me for assistance.
EXHIBIT
F -r
d o
I have enclosed copies of the "Intent of Storage" and "How to Obtain a Demolition
Permit". You must apply for and obtain a demolition permit to return the enclosure to
an unfinished, unpartitioned limited storage area pursuant to the approved set of plans.
You should contact me within 60 days from the date of receipt of this letter. After the
lower enclosure has been brought into compliance, we will provide another inspection
at no charge and re -issue two amended "Community Inspection Reports". Failure to
comply may result in code enforcement proceedings and cancellation of your flood
insurance policy. Please call me at (305) 289-2518. Thank you for your cooperation.

As you know, an Order Imposing Fine and Lien dated July 8, 2009 was recorded in the Monroe County Clerk's
Office on August 5, 2009 as a lien on behalf of Monroe County at Book 2426, Page 64. This lien is a lien on the
property that was the subject of the code enforcement action and upon any and all other real and/or personal
property you own.
This case was deemed compliant on January 13, 2015 with the completion and passing of all required building
department inspections on permit 14303737. Therefore a daily fine of $150.00 per day accrued for 2028 days
(June 25, 2009 - January 13, 2015), for a total fine amount of $304,200.00.
Additionally, per F.S. §162.07(2), if the local governing body Prevails in prosecuting a case before the
enforcement board, it shall be entitled to recover all costs incurred in prosecuting the case before the board and
such costs may be included in the lien authorized under s. 162.09(3). To date these costs are $371.62 and
continue to accrue until the case is closed.
Therefore the current amount of the Monroe County Lien is $304,571.62 ($304,200.00 fines and $371.62 costs).
The County staffis authority to reduce fines is very limited once a lien is filed. Ater reviewing the circumstances
of your case and in an effort to amicably resolve the amount of the lien, the County will accept the minimum
amount allowed, $76,421.62 ($76,050.00 fines and $371.62 costs), and provide a Full Satisfaction and Release of
Lien.
(At this time County staff is limited to a 75% reduction of the fines by resolution. Any reduction in the fine
amount lower than that would have to be approved by the Board of County Commissioners.)
You can resolve this matter by remitting a check or money order for payment in full within thirty (30) days to:
Monroe County Code Compliance Department
Attention: Nicole Petrick
2798 Overseas Highway, Suite 330
Marathon, Florida 33050
The County will then provide a Release and Satisfaction of lien to you. It is then your responsibility to record the
Release and Satisfaction with the Clerk of Courts in Monroe County. Failure to remit payment within 30 days
will result in a referral to the Monroe County Attorney's Office for further action.
Respeldly yours,

Hello Alicia,
(Please confirm receipt of this email.)
Although the attached letter with the final amount of the lien, and the maximum reduction allowed by staff will be mailed, I
wanted to email it to you also.
I know you have mentioned that you wanted to address the BOCC. If so please prepare a letter to the BOCC asking for a
reduction and include any specifics or extenuating circumstances you would like them to consider. I will include this letter
in the backup material.
Also, please include what meeting your would prefer and we will make every attempt to have it heard on that date. I have
attached the meeting schedule for your review.
I hope this helps.

Hello Alicia,
Your case is on my schedule for the January BOCC agenda. However a check on the permit today reveals that there
have been no inspections and the permit remains open. As you know, we cannot ask for a reduction in fines until after the
violations have been corrected. Please let me know the status.
I did also see that the bank vacated their final judgment of foreclosure and reinstated the note. Congrats on that.

So noted Alicia.
I was not able to get your case on the October 15, 2014 BOCC meeting because it was changed to the 17t' I will be out of
town. In any event, we cannot submit a request for a reduction of fines until the case is in compliance, so continue on
with that as your goal and please prepare a letter to the BOCC asking for a reduction and include any specifics or
extenuating circumstances you would like them to consider.
Hopefully we can have this on the November 18, 2014 BOCC. I know you are anxious to get this resolved.

Hello ladies. We are almost done with the room but there are still a couple of things that need to be finished. I am
trying to do this as fast as I can but when money is tight, things move real slow. I just wanted to let you know. If
there is anything you need to know specifically please let me know. I can't believe how slowly this is going.
Thank you

Code Enforcement Case CE07090260
March 12,2015
Dear Board Members,
The reason for this letter is to explain my financial situation at this time.
Before 2004, my husband made a good living and I worked for Monroe County Schools
at Coral Shores High School in the Main Office. Unfortunately, in 2004 my husband
was incarcerated in a federal prison where he still remains.
We lost everything after that. Between the attorneys, not having my husband's income
and both of my sons still in college, my finances hit rock bottom. My hours at school
were cut almost in half. My home went into foreclosure. I kept fighting as hard as I
could.
In 2007 my downstairs room was inspected and I found out then that it was an illegal
enclosure. I had no idea about this when we first bought it. My life was in such turmoil
t this point, I did not even realize that a fine was adding up daily. I had no one to help
me; no money to have the room demolished and thought I would lose the house at any
time.
As the years went by, I still kept fighting the foreclosure notices and the sale dates, all
the while never getting any notifications about any fines being added in all these years.
This past year, to my surprise, 1 was given the chance for a modification because now
both my sons agreed to help me keep our home by giving me the money for the
monthly mortgage payment of $2,800.00. 1 make around $2,400 a month with my
retirement from school, social security and the Spanish interpreting I do on my own.
My sons provide the rest of the mortgage and expenses. In the meantime, I have only
been able to visit my husband in the Butner, North Carolina Federal Medical Facility
twice since he was diagnosed with cancer.
o, as you can see my financial situation is extremely tight. For these reasons I am
asking you to please forgive my lien so that I can keep my home.
Thank you so much
