This Fine Reduction Stipulation and Agreed Recommended Order involves a parcel located at 6980 SE Twin Oaks Cir., Stuart, FL 34953.
On August 21, 2019, an Order Finding Violation was issued by the Code Enforcement Magistrate to Salvatore and Ada Califano for the following violation(s): Section 105.1 FBC- Permits - Permits When Required Incorporated By Sec 21.1 General Ordinances, Martin County Code.
Compliance was required by September 30, 2019. On March 9, 2021, an Affidavit of Compliance/ Accrued Fines was issued reflecting an outstanding fine of $ 52,400.00 plus costs in the amount of $ 575.00.
Staff has determined that a lien reduction is warranted. The respondents brought the property into compliance and have offered to pay $2,648.75 to resolve the outstanding fines which have accrued. Staff has taken into consideration the fact that the violation was a minor in nature for an expired permit and are accepting 5% of the total value of the accrued fine on this property.
