THERE IS A GENTLEMAN IN THE COMMUNITY THAT COMES AROUND AND WE'LL MOLD GRASS, SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS AN ARRANGEMENT THAT WAS MADE. I'M NOT ENTIRELY SURE. I JUST KNOW THAT IN MY FINAL REINSPECTION. I WAS ABLE TO RECORD THAT OF THE GRASS HAD BEEN RECENTLY CUT. ON THE PROPERTY AND THAT FINAL INSPECTION OCCURRED ON FEBRUARY 21ST AND 2020. WELL IT WAS THERE WAS THERE WAS A REINSPECTION ON FEBRUARY 21ST 2022 AS A RESULT OF THE FINAL ORDER WARRANTING COMPLIANCE BY FEBRUARY 18TH.

I DID A FOLLOW UP INSPECTION AND I FOUND NO CHANGE TO THE PROPERTY. UM AND AT THIS POINT MY I'D ASK THAT ON THE ON THE BOTTOM SIDE OF YOUR OF YOUR PACKET. I INCLUDED A COPY OF THE FINAL ORDER. THAT WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED, UM AT OUR JANUARY 18TH 2022 SPECIAL MAGISTRATE HEARING. AND AGAIN AS I'VE STATED IT SIMPLY STATES THAT THE VIOLATIONS NEEDED TO BE ADDRESSED AND OR COMPLIED BY. UF 2022.

ORIGINAL FINAL ORDER BE IMPOSED IN THE VILLAGE BE GRANTED THE AUTHORITY TO ABATE THE NUISANCE BY MEANS OF FULL DEMOLITION OF THE PROPERTY. ANDS ABATEMENT, UM THE VILLAGE HAVE THE BIG GRANTED THE AUTHORITY TO IMPOSE ANY COSTS RELATED TO THIS, UM, ABATEMENT. TO THE.PROPERTY AS A AS A LIEN. AND THEN AS A RESULT OF THIS INVESTIGATION. THE VILLAGE HAS INCURRED A REASONABLE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS OF $150. AND I REQUEST THAT THE VILLAGE BE REIMBURSED THIS AMOUNT OF FOLLOWING TODAY'S HEARING. AND AT THIS TIME THAT WILL CONCLUDE MY TESTIMONY. THANK YOU, MR PEREZ ABILITY TO HAVE ANYONE ELSE THAT LIKE TO PRESENT TESTIMONY ON BEHALF OF THE VILLAGE IN THIS MATTER? NO, SIR. AND YOU STATED THAT YOU HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY THE PROPERTY OWNER OR THE TENANT OR CARETAKER OR ANYONE ELSE WHO WHO WISH TO RESPOND ON BEHALF OF THE PROPERTY OWNER IN THIS MATTER? NO, SIR. YES, SIR. LORD. THROUGH THE ORDER AGAIN. UM YOU'RE REQUESTING THAT THE NUISANCE BE ABATED. YES AND WHAT MAN? WHAT METHOD DID THE CITY VILLAGE WANT TO TRY TO USE TO ABATE THAT NUISANCE? WELL AGAIN ARE ARE.
ARE BUILDING OFFICIALS NOT NOT HERE. SO I'M NOT GONNA, UM, YOU KNOW, SPECULATE, BUT I DO KNOW THAT BASED UPON THE CONDITION OF THE STRUCTURE ITSELF. WE FIND THAT IT IS BEST TO ABATE THE NUISANCE BY MEANS OF FULL DEMOLITION OF THE PROPERTY. WELL AT THIS POINT. EVEN THOUGH IT'S AN UNSAFE STRUCTURE IN THERE, AND THERE'S RECORDED THEIR REQUIREMENTS FOR THAT. I'M RELUCTANT TO AUTHORIZE THAT DRASTIC ACTIVITY UNDERSTOOD. ONE BECAUSE, UH, NORMALLY, EVEN THOUGH WE DO A FINE CERTIFICATION, USUALLY THERE'S AN IMPOSITION OF THE LEAN AND THEN THE CITY WOULD HAVE THE VILLAGE WOULD HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO FORECLOSE UPON THAT LEAD, AT LEAST ENSURE THAT THE COSTS OF ANY DEMOLITION WILL BE RECRUITED BEFORE AND ENGAGES IN SUCH I'M SORRY AS WELL. I'D WANT TO HEAR FROM THE BUILDING OFFICIAL AS TO THE BEST METHOD METHODOLOGY TO DO THAT SAFELY AND TO ENSURE THAT YOU KNOW AND ENSURE THAT THE CITY. THE CITY HAS IF IT SHOULD MOVE FORWARD ON THAT. THAT IT'S TAKING ALL POSSIBLE STEPS TO PROTECT PROPERTY INTEREST OF THE TENANT NOW BE OWNER. AND THIS I EXPRESSED CONCERN THE LAST TIME
[00:35:05]
WE WERE HERE ON THIS MATTER WITH REGARD TO THE WELL BEING OF THE TENANT. YES, SIR. AND YOU SAY THAT YOU KNOW, AND I WANTED TO ENSURE THAT TENANT WAS GETTING RE RE OCCUPIED THE PROPER YEAH, SO THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE THAT THE TENANT REOCCUPIED THE PROBLEM? NONE. NONE AT ALL. UM YEAH, AND ALL MY VISITS. I DID TAKE MEASURES TO KNOCK ON THE DOOR AND ANNOUNCED MY PRESENCE AND MYSELF, BUT NEVER RECEIVED ANY ANSWER AT THE DOOR. UM AND I HAVEN'T SEEN SINCE THAT THE LAST HEARING. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYBODY OUTSIDE OF THE RESIDENTS, SOME OR YOU KNOW WHAT THE DOOR OPEN OR ANY KIND OF ACTIVITY ON THE PROPERTY SHOWING THAT ANYBODY IS IN THERE? YOU HAVEN'T HAD CONTACT FROM THE TENANT OR THEY'RE KILLING THE PERSON WHO PRESENTED THEMSELVES AS THEIR CARETAKER. NO. RIGHT? DO YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THAT THAT THOSE PERSONS ARE STILL WITH RESIDING WITHIN THE VILLAGE? I'M NOT ENTIRELY SURE NO ALL RIGHT. I'M NOT GOING TO ORDER DESTRUCTION AT THIS POINT, BUT I AM GOING TO ENTER AN ORDER OF FINE CERTIFICATION AND GIVE THE VILLAGE THE AUTHORITY TO FORECLOSE ON THE LEAN. OKAY. WOULD ANY LIEN THAT THE FIRE MIGHT CREATE UNDERSTOOD. OKAY, BUT I AM GOING TO IMPOSE. GREAT POSE FINE OF. $100 PER DAY PER PER VIOLATION. WHICH IS NOW RATHER THAN SEVEN VIOLATIONS. IT IS SIX YES, SIR, BECAUSE THERE'S ONE VIOLATION THAT HAD BEEN CORRECTED, SO IT'S $600 PER DAY. THAT WILL BEGIN. MM BEGIN THE DAY OF THE ENTRY OF THE ORDER BY THE VILLAGE. OKAY SO I NEED TO DRAFT THE ORDER. GET BACK TO THE VILLAGE. BUT THAT DAY BEGINS IN THOSE FILES WILL ACCRUE UNTIL THE VIOLATION IS ABATED. OR CORRECTED BY THE OWNER, OKAY? IF THE VILLAGE WANTS TO PROCEED FURTHER. I'M GOING TO REQUEST THAT THE VILLAGE COME BACK BEFORE THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE WITH EVIDENCE THAT NOTHING HAS CHANGED AND YOU KNOW, AT THAT POINT, THE VILLAGE MAY DECIDE WHAT IT WANTS TO DO WITH REGARD TO FORECLOSURE AND OR CONDEMNATION OF THE PROPERTY REMOVAL OF THE STRUCTURE. UM DEALING WITH THE COSTS AND THE AND THE METHODOLOGY METHODS ASSOCIATED THERE IN MY CONCERN HERE IS THAT I DON'T WANT TO. I DON'T WANT TO. HAVE THE VILLAGE PUT ITSELF IN A POSITION. WHERE IT CAN BE CHALLENGED. ON ITS DECISION. TWO DEMOLISHES STRUCTURE BY THE OWNER. MHM, WHY WEREN'T NOTIFIED PROPERLY. THERE WEREN'T PROPER CONDEMNATION PROCEEDINGS. THEY WEREN'T PROPERLY FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS, SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS STEP IS DONE FIRST GIVEN ANOTHER 30 DAYS. NO ONE'S NO ONE'S LIVING AT THE PROPERTY, EVEN THOUGH THE PROPERTY IS A NUISANCE, AND IT'S AND IT'S A STRUCTURE THAT NEEDS TO BE UNLAWFUL STRUCTURE RESIDING IN ITS MOST, IT'S NUISANCE VALUE REALLY IS TO THE NEIGHBORS MORE SO THAN THE FIRST STEP RESIDING WITH JACK. OKAY SO I WANT TO GIVE ANOTHER 30 DATE IMPOSED LEANS PROPOSED FINES. 30 DAYS AFTER 30 DAYS OF NOTHING STRIP, NOTHING'S HAPPENED. THAT WE CAN TALK WITH THE BUILDING INSPECTOR AND HAVE THAT PERSON COME AND GIVE TESTIMONY ABOUT HOW THE DEMOLITION MAY HAPPEN. AND THEN THE VILLAGE CAN DECIDE HOW IT WANTS TO MOVE FORWARD, UNDERSTOOD? THANK YOU, SIR. AND AGAIN AGAIN. I'M VERY COGNITIVE, VERY COGNIZANT AWARE OF PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS AND I BELIEVE THAT THERE MUST BE A BALANCE BETWEEN THE AUTHORITY OF THE VILLAGE TO ABATE. IT'S NUISANCE IN THE RIGHTS OF THE OWNER. YES SIR. I DON'T BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE AN UNFAIR UNFAIRNESS IN THAT BALANCE. IT SHOULD BE EQUALLY BALANCED. AND BECAUSE MOST PROPERTY OWNERS ARE TO DISADVANTAGE WHEN DEALING WITH THE PEOPLE IN THEIR SOVEREIGN CAPACITY AS THEIR GOVERNMENT AS ONE SINGLE PERSON GOING AGAINST ALL OF THE OTHER PEOPLE, I WANT TO ENSURE THAT THAT PERSON HAS AN OPPORTUNITY. THE FULL NOTICE AND OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD SUCH THAT IF THEY DECIDE NOT TO PARTICIPATE. THERE CAN'T BE ANY CAN'T BE. AN INSTANCE WHERE THE VILLAGE COULD BE SOMEHOW. HELP LIABLE FOR ITS DECISION. UNDERSTOOD OKAY, BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES TO FIX THIS AND RECTIFY THIS TIMELY FASHION AND THAT THE LEANS IMPOSED ARE REASONABLE JUST AND PROPER FOR THE FOR THE AMOUNT OF VIOLATIONS AND THAT THE TIMING THAT THE PERSON WOULD HAVE TO EITHER PAY THE FINES AND OR CORRECT THE PROPERTY OR BOTH.IT WOULD BE REASONABLE ENOUGH. UNDERSTAND THAT THIS THIS PROPERTY IS PROBABLY BEEN UNDER VIOLATION FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS BY THE BY THE BY MY REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE AND TESTIMONY THAT'S BEEN PRESENTED BY THE VILLAGE. THUS FAR, IT APPEARS THAT THE VILLAGE HAS BEEN VERY PATIENT, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I'M. SITTING IN MY CAPACITY AS A SPECIAL MAGISTRATE HERE. I'M
[00:40:04]
ALSO VERY MINDFUL OF THE AWESOME POWER THAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS DISPOSSESS SOMEONE OF THEIR PROPERTY. DON'T WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO DO THAT AND ANY IMPROPER WAY JUST UNDERSTOOD. SO THAT'S MY. JUDICIAL IMPOSITION IS SIMPLY TO GIVE THE PROPERTY OWNER THAT TIME. BUT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE LEANS ARE RUNNING PROPERTY OWNER HAS HAD AMPLE TIME AND NOTICE FROM THE VILLAGE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. IT DOESN'T APPEAR THAT THEY'VE DONE ANYTHING APART FROM CLEARING SOME OF THE WEEDS AND MOWING MOWING THE PROPERTY. BUT THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING STRUCTURAL FIX THE ISSUES THAT ARE PRESENT WITH THE PROPERTY THAT WERE PRESENT ON DECEMBER. THAT WERE NOTICED FIRST BY THE VILLAGE ON DECEMBER 14TH 2021, THEN A. THREE FORMAL, YOU KNOW, THREE OR FOUR MONTHS SUBSEQUENT, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE AGAIN. I KNOW THAT WHEN THIS FIRST CAME BEFORE ME, I DID EXPRESS CONCERN ABOUT THE TENANT AND THE CARETAKER.
