AT THAT TIME, I HAD ADVISED HER THAT SHE SHOULD STOP SELLING FOOD BECAUSE IT WASN'T UP TO CODE STANDARDS, ESPECIALLY THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. BECAUSE SHE'S JUST SELLING FOOD OUT OF A CART. BASICALLY, IT LOOKS LIKE A BABY WAGON. OKAY. AND A AND THAT'S TO BE. YES. SO. YEP. ALL RIGHT. SO OKAY. EL OFICIAL EL SENOR ALONSO ESTA EXPLICANDO. SOY DE Q EL OBSERVO.

Q ESTABA VENDIENDO. OKAY, DON'T GET TOO FAR AHEAD OF ME YET BECAUSE I STILL HAVE SOME QUESTIONS. SO THIS I'M LOOKING AT TWO A AND IT'S DATED THE 12TH. HAD YOU OBSERVED HER BEFORE DOING THE SAME THING. SO THE DATES AT THE BOTTOM IS THE DATE. YES. SO I'VE OBSERVED THERE BEFORE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ACTUALLY WAY BEFORE I'VE ISSUED OUT AN NOF.

EL LA PREGUNTA LA OFICIAL ALONSO SOBRE LAS FECHAS Y LA FECHA DE LOS DE JULIO FUE LA PRIMERA VEZ EL OBSERVA. PERO LA SEGUNDA VEZ Q. LO VEO FUE EL DIA 23 DE JULIO Y FUE DONDE EL ÉXITO Y LE DIO UNA SITUACION OKAY. ALL RIGHT. GO AHEAD. OKAY. TELL ME ABOUT TOOTSIE. TOOTSIE WAS JUST TWO DAYS LATER, AS SOON AS I GOT ON SHIFT AND STARTED PATROLLING, I SEEN HER ON THE SAME RIGHT OF WAY, BUT SHE SEEN MY TRUCK AND WENT AROUND THE TREE TO TRY AND EVADE ME AND I WAS ABLE TO TAKE A PICTURE OF HER THERE AGAIN WITH THE SAME CART SELLING FOOD. OKAY. ANY ANYTHING FURTHER YOU NEED TO TELL US? NOPE. ALL RIGHT. MA'AM, YOU'VE HEARD THE VILLAGES OFFICER. AND DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TELL ME?

VAMOS PAGANDO LA CASA. DOS MIL QUINIENTOS LA CASA Y LOS VÉLEZ DE LA LUZ Y DE AGUA. LA DANZA DE TELEFONO. ENTONCES ES POR ESO YO ME ESPOSO MI DENTISTA AMOR. ENTONCES YO YO. YOU OKAY? I'M OKAY. IT'S OKAY. NO, NO. EL DINERO TENGO SIX NINOS Y OKAY. TENGO SIX NINOS Y POR ESO YO ESTOY LUCHANDO. ESTOY BUSCANDO COMO BECAUSE IT'S TOO MUCH FOR YOU TO I GOT IT. OKAY. GO AHEAD. SO I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THAT.YES SHE DOES SELL FOOD. AND THE REASON THAT SHE IS SELLING FOOD IS TO HELP WITH HER HUSBAND. HER
[00:10:06]
HUSBAND MAKES ABOUT $560 A WEEK. SHE HAS A RENT THAT SHE HAS TO PAY FOR $2,500, INCLUDING.UTILITIES, INSURANCE, CELL PHONE BILLS. ON TOP OF THAT, SHE HAS SIX CHILDREN THAT SHE IS. SHE HAS SIX CHILDREN OF HER OWN. SO SHE DID DISCUSS THIS BUSINESS WITH HER HUSBAND AND EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT SHE IS AT LEAST TRYING TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE FINANCES OF THE HOME. SO THIS IS WHAT THEY DECIDED THAT SHE COULD DO. AND SHE DID. IN FACT EXPLAIN THAT SHE WAS SELLING TAMALES.
HUM. ALL RIGHT. FLORIDA HAS SPECIFIC LAWS FOR HOME BASED FOOD BUSINESSES, AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY PRETTY LIBERAL. BUT BUT SHE WOULD HAVE TO FOLLOW THE STATUTE AS FAR AS HOW TO THAT SHE WOULD SELL THE FOOD AND SELLING IT ON THE RIGHT OF WAY OF A PUBLIC STREET IS NOT IS NOT PERMITTED IN THE VILLAGE. SO BUT THERE ARE THERE ARE WAYS THAT SHE CAN CONDUCT HER BUSINESS.
QUIERE EXPLICAR DE QUÉ EN EL ESTADO DE FLORIDA Y CIERTOS REGLAMENTOS QUÉ SE TIENE SEGUIR Y PARTE DE LOS REGLAMENTOS? NO PERMITE USTED VENDE DONDE USTED ESTABA. PERO HAY UNA MANERA DONDE USTED PUEDE LEGALMENTE VENDER Y CONTINUAR CON LA VENTA DE LA COMIDA. AND IF SHE COMES TO VILLAGE HALL THE STAFF THE DEVELOPMENT STAFF CAN GIVE HER A COPY OF THAT STATUTE. AND THEN PERHAPS GUIDE HER ON WHATEVER LICENSE. OR ACTUALLY IN SOME CASES, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A LICENSE. BUT BUT AT LEAST THEY CAN GUIDE HER ON WHAT AND HOW SHE CAN CONDUCT THE BUSINESS.
AND MAYBE EVEN BETTER. THAN WHAT SHE'S TRYING TO DO OUT ON THE STREET. OKAY, CIERTAS LEYES DE PARTE DEL ESTADO DE FLORIDA. QUÉ PUDIERA GEAR LA SU NEGOCIO Y QUIZAS HASTA MEJORAR SU NEGOCIO.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT. OKAY. SO I BASED ON WHAT I'M HEARING, I'M GOING TO ISSUE AN ORDER NOT TO REPEAT THE VIOLATION. AND I'LL SAY, DO NOT REPEAT. AND. I THINK BASED ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES, IT LOOKS LIKE A FAIRLY. FAIRLY MINOR VIOLATION. I THINK I'M GOING TO ALSO WAIVE FEES AND COSTS IN THE CASE. OKAY. BUT. MA'AM, YOU CANNOT CONTINUE TO DO IT TO SELL TAMALES THE WAY YOU'RE DOING IT. OKAY. DO YOU ESTABA EXPLICANDO DE QUÉ. LOOK, EL VA ORDENAR ES UNA ORDEN.

YEAH, WE'RE GOING TO NEED ANOTHER COPY OF THE EVIDENCE.
SO. SO THE INITIAL EVIDENCE OF THAT DAY, I DID NOT HAVE A PICTURE OF HER FOR THE INITIAL DAY, BUT AS OF THIS MORNING WHEN I CAME IN, SHE WAS AT THE SAME RIGHT OF WAY SELLING FOOD AS OF
[00:20:03]
THIS MORNING. SO I WAS ABLE TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THAT. THAT'S THE ONLY EVIDENCE I HAVE FOR THIS CASE. EL OFICIAL ALONZO ESTABA EXPLICANDO DE QUÉ EMPEZANDO EL DIA DE SIETE DE SEPTIEMBRE. EL VIA DE USTEDES ESTABA VENDIENDO COMIDA EN LA CALLE. SIETE JACKSON. SHE WAS ON THE RIGHT OF WAY ON THE SIDEWALK ADJACENT TO 15300 SOUTHWEST JACKSON AVE, WHICH IS THE LITTLE CORNER STORE. USTED ESTABA ACERCA DE LA LA CALLE. MIL QUINIENTOS THREE CIENTOS SUROESTE JACKSON. Y USTED ESTABA EN LA CALLE. BASICAMENTE DONDE ESTA DONDE EL CAMINO DE LA CIUDAD? PROPIEDAD DE LA DE LA CIUDAD. EL DIA. QUÉ USTED FUE VISTA? NO. FUE EL DIA. QUÉ.ACTUALMENTE ES EL FOTO DE AQUI COMO EVIDENCIA. FUE UN FOTO SE TOMA. HOY EN LA MANANA. OKAY. I HAVE IT HERE. OH, GOOD. OKAY. JUST. YEAH. YOU JUST HAVE THE PHOTO. OKAY. AT THE. AT THE TIME. I ISSUED HER A NOTICE OF VIOLATION BY HAND. AND I TOLD HER THAT SHE CANNOT CONTINUE TO BE SELLING FOOD ON THE RIGHT OF WAY. THE COPY OF THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S, AS YOU SEE BEFORE, YOU WOULD BE EXHIBIT ONE, WHICH IS THE PROPERTY. THAT SHE WAS SELLING ADJACENT TO. YEAH. AND ON FOR EXHIBIT TWO WILL ALSO BE THE KNOB THAT I ISSUED HER. I'M SORRY. EXHIBIT THREE WOULD BE THE ENVY THAT I ISSUED HER. AND THAT WAS BACK IN SEPTEMBER. SEPTEMBER? YES. OKAY. SO THIS IS NOT A FIRST IMPRESSION SITUATION. YOU HAD SEEN HER BACK IN. SO I'VE SEEN HER BACK IN SEPTEMBER. THAT WAS THE INITIAL NOV. WE DID NOT HAVE MAGISTRATE FOR SEPTEMBER, SO I REISSUED HER ANOTHER NOV FOR MAGISTRATE FOR OCTOBER 15TH. TODAY'S DATE. OKA. OFICIAL ALONSO ESTABA EXPLICANDO DE QUÉ INICIALMENTE CUANDO LA DIO A USTED. UN NOTIFICATION DE VIOLATION EL LA CITA ESE DIA EL SIETE DE SEPTIEMBRE. TE HA VISTO PARA EL MAS DE SEPTIEMBRE. PERO COMO NO HUBO JUNTA ESE MAS.
ENTONCES POR ESO HASTA AHORA ESTAMOS ESCUCHANDO EL CASO. OKAY. OKAY. GO AHEAD. AT THE TIME THE NOV I CITED FOR MOBILE FOOD VENDING SECTION 37. 13 UPON MY INVESTIGATION I NOTICED THE VIOLATION. I ISSUED HER A NOTICE OF VIOLATION FOR ON SEPTEMBER 7TH FOR OCTOBER 15TH, WHICH IS MARKED AS EXHIBIT TWO. IN THE NOTICE, THE RESPONDENT WAS GIVEN UNTIL SEPTEMBER 23RD. TO NOT REPEAT THE VIOLATION. WHICH I THEN SEEN HER AGAIN THIS MORNING. DATE OF MAGISTRATE.
OKAY. THE NOTICE WAS SENT TO THE RESPONDENT CERTIFIED MAIL AND POSTING AND HAND DELIVERY. EL OFICIAL ALONZO DE ESTA EXPLICANDO DE Q. EL DIA Q EL INICIO LA NOTIFICATION DE VIOLATION. EL EQUIPO DE Q DE ESTA. USTED PUEDE VOLVER A VENDER Y EL ENTREGA POR EL DIA DE HOY. FUE UNA FOTO Q EL TOMO DONDE HOY TEMPRANO Y USTED ESTABA VENDIENDO TODAVIA LE ESTABA EXPLICANDO EL JUEVES Q USTED FUE NOTIFICADO SOBRE LA AUDIENCIA DE HOY POR CORREO. LA MANDARON POR CORREO DOS VECES Y TAMBIÉN LE DIO UN UNA COPIA PERSONALMENTE A BESANDO SOBRE LA CITA DE HOY. A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE POSTING OF THE PROPERTY IS MARKED AS VILLAGE EXHIBIT FOUR.
OKAY, WHEN YOU SAY YOU POSTED THE PROPERTY, IS THIS THE ADJACENT PROPERTY? SO I POSTED IT ON HER ACTUAL HOME ADDRESS. SO THAT WAY SHE. OKAY, SO I KNOW THAT SHE RECEIVED IT. GOOD. EL LA ESTABA PREGUNTANDO EL OFICIAL PARA ACLARAR DONDE FUE EL AVISO DEJO EL NOTIFICATION DE LA AUDIENCIA Y EL SENOR OFICIAL. ALONSO EXPLICA EL PUSO UNA COPIA DE LA AUDIENCIA EN SU DIRECCION EN SU CASA PERSONAL PARA USTED SUPIERA SOBRE LA JUNTA DE HOY. OKAY. MY AFFIDAVIT IS ALSO MARKED AS VILLAGE EXHIBIT NUMBER FIVE. OKAY. THAT SHOWS THAT IT WAS RECEIVED BY HAND POSTING AND CERTIFIED MAIL AND REGULAR MAIL. ALL RIGHT. UNLESS MISS FRANCISCO HAS ANY OBJECTION, I'M GOING TO
[00:25:02]
ACCEPT THIS INTO EVIDENCE SO WE CAN USE IT AND TALK ABOUT IT. OKAY. EXPLICANDO TODAS LAS EVIDENCIAS Q HEMOS RECIBIDO LA NOTIFICATION DE LA AUDIENCIA DE HOY DE LO PERSONALMENTE DEJARLO EN SU HOGAR Y ENVIARLO POR CORREO. DOS VECES EL EL OFFICIAL ALONSO A RECIBIDO CONFIRMACION USTED RECIBIO EL NOTIFICATION TAMBIÉN POR CORREO CERTIFICADO A ALGUN DECLARACION CONTRA UNO DE ESTA EVIDENCIAS. NO. OKAY. THANK YOU. ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED TO TELL ME? NO. OKAY. SO I DON'T KNOW WHETHER YOU WERE HERE FOR THE PRIOR CASE, BUT THIS IS VERY SIMILAR. AND MAYBE YOU CAN EXPLAIN THAT THE LAW, THE LOCAL ORDINANCE DOES NOT ALLOW CERTAIN TYPES OF FOOD VENDING. BUT THERE IS A STATE STATUTE THAT GUIDES THIS PROCESS PRETTY WELL FOR HOME BASED BUSINESS, INCLUDING FOOD. SO WHAT I'M GOING TO SUGGEST AGAIN IS THAT MISS FRANCISCO COMES IN AND SPEAKS WITH YOU DIRECTLY ABOUT HOW TO CONDUCT THIS BUSINESS. IF SHE WANTS TO CONTINUE IT. NO SABE SI USTED ESTA AQUI ANTERIORMENTE CUANDO HABLAMOS CON LA OTRA PERSONA. EL OTRO CASO. QUÉ FUE MUY SIMILAR. PERO DE HACER LA MISMA INFORMACION DE QUÉ EN LAS NORMAS DEL VILLAGE INDIANTOWN NO SE PERMITE VENTA DE COMIDA DE LA FORMA Q USTED LO ESTA HACIENDO A LEYES DEL ESTADO DE FLORIDA? Q PUDIERA AYUDARLA EN INICIAR SU NEGOCIO DE VENTA DE COMIDA. AQUI NOSOTROS EN LAS OFICINAS DEL VILLAGE SE PUEDEN AYUDAR PARA INICIAR ESE PROCESO Y AYUDARLE A INICIAR SU NEGOCIO. ESE ES ALGO Q NOSOTROS PODEMOS AYUDAR A AYUDARLA YO SÉ Q EN EL PASADO. HA LLEGADO, PERO EL JUEZ Q EXPLICAR Q ACTUALMENTE, NO ES PERMITIDO. OKAY. AND SO MY RULING WILL BE THAT SIMILAR TO THE PRIOR CASE WHERE I WILL ISSUE A DO NOT REPEAT ORDER, MEANING YOU CAN'T SELL FOOD ON THE STREET ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. AND BUT THERE WON'T BE ANY FINE OR COST UNLESS YOU DO IT AGAIN. IL VA ORDENAR DE LO MISMO SIMILAR COMO EL CASO ANTERIOR DE Q USTED YA NO PUEDE REPETIR LA VENTA DE COMIDA YA NO VA PODER HACER ESO DE AHORA ADELANTE. SI USTED LO VUELVE A REPETIR Y LO VUELVA A HACER LA PUEDE SER UNA MULTA. BUT BEAR IN MIND THERE ARE WAYS THAT YOU CAN CONDUCT YOUR BUSINESS. PERO PARA USTED ENTIENDE Q C I FORMAS DONDE USTED PUDIERA SU NEGOCIO.JUST NOT OUT ON THE STREET. PERO EN LA CALLE SIMPLEMENTE NO ES PERMITIDO. OKAY. SO TALK TO LUCIA.

SHE HAS INQUIRED ABOUT A FOOD TRUCK. AND SHE HAS COME TO THE VILLAGE OFFICES IN THE PAST. BUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER TO MEET THE STANDARDS THAT WE HAVE. OF BEING LOCATED IN A COMMERCIAL AREA OR WHERE A BUSINESS IS CURRENTLY LOCATED. SO SHE IS ASKING IF THERE WOULD BE A POSSIBILITY FOR HER TO MAINTAIN HER BUSINESS AT THE SAME AREA ON THE RIGHT OF WAY FOR HER TO CONTINUE IN A FOOD TRUCK AND EVEN PROVIDE A PORTA POTTY, BECAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE STANDARDS THAT'S REQUIRED. I, I CAN'T, I CAN'T TELL HER YES OR NO IF SHE'S GOING TO HAVE YOU HAVE TO COME IN AND TALK TO THE STAFF ABOUT HOW TO ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO CONDUCT IT. NO VA PODER ORDENAR.

BUT BUT A FOOD TRUCK IS ONLY ONE WAY TO ACCOMPLISH THIS. OKAY. THAT'S IT'S NOT THE ONLY WAY. ESTANDO EN UN EN UNA TROCA DE VENTA ES UNA DE LAS FORMAS. PERO QUIZAS NO PUEDE NO SERIA. LA UNICA FORMA PERO AUN ASI PODEMOS TRABAJAR CON USTED. OKAY. OKAY. YA NO VOY A VENDOR ASSESSMENT.OKAY. YEAH. SO SHE'S ACKNOWLEDGING THAT SHE WILL NOT SELL AGAIN UNTIL SHE IS ABLE TO DO IT.

[00:40:04]
PROPERTY AT 14401 SOUTHWEST DIVOT DRIVE, INDIANTOWN, FLORIDA. ACCORDING TO THE OFFICIAL RECORDS OF THE MARTIN COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISERS, THE PROPERTY OWNER IS ADRIANA GARCIA VILLA. A COPY OF THE PROPERTY, APPRAISER'S RECORDS OF OWNERSHIP IS MARKED TO YOU AS EXHIBIT ONE.ALL RIGHT. HAVE. SHE. DOES SHE HAVE SHE HAD NOTICE OF THE HEARING. BUT DID YOU DISCUSS WITH HER A CONTINUANCE? I DID DISCUSS WITH HER A CONTINUANCE. OKAY. SHE AT THE TIME, SHE HAD AN INOPERABLE VEHICLE, A WHOLE BUNCH OF TRASH AND DEBRIS AND OUTDOOR STORAGE, WHICH THEN SHE HAS CLEANED UP THE OUTDOOR STORAGE HAS PUT A PLATE ON THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY THING IS, IS THE GUTTERS ON THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE ARE. WERE NOT THERE. THEY WERE FALLING APART. BUT SINCE THE HURRICANE, HER HOUSE HAS ACTUALLY SUSTAINED MORE DAMAGE. AND HER CARPORT IS NOW MORE DAMAGED THAN IT WAS BEFORE. AND THE GUTTERS ARE. SO SHE IS GOING TO GET IT FIXED. BUT SHE IS GOING TO NEED MORE TIME. ALL RIGHT. SO RATHER THAN ME TAKING ANY EVIDENCE IN THIS CASE, WHY DON'T WHY DON'T WE JUST CONTINUE IT OUT? WHAT ARE YOU THINKING AS FAR AS THE TIME. I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S GOING TO GO THROUGH HOME INSURANCE OR IF SHE'S GOING TO FIX IT OUTRIGHT. IT MIGHT TAKE HER SOME TIME. SO I WOULD SAY I WOULD GIVE HER TWO MONTHS. SO NOT NEXT MATCH. CLEANED UP THE TRASH AND TAG THE VEHICLE. SO MAYBE IF IT'S JUST THE SOME OF THE STRUCTURAL SHE MAY HAVE INSURANCE CLAIM. LET'S GO EVEN THREE MONTHS IN THAT BECAUSE BY THE TIME SHE FILES HER CLAIMS AND IF FEMA GETS INVOLVED YOU NEVER YOU NEVER REALLY KNOW. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THE PROPERTY OWNER, LET'S SEE. OKAY, SO THIS IS AN INDIAN WOOD. AND IT'S ONE OF THE HOMES. SO THE UNDERLYING LAND IS OWNED BY CSLC INDIAN WOOD MHC, LLC. BUT THE HOME IS IN THE HOME IS OWNED BY ADRIANA MARCIA VILLA. ALL RIGHT. AND DID YOU GAVE NOTICE TO BOTH THE LANDOWNER AND THE. YES. OKAY.
ALL RIGHT. ONE OF THE THINGS WITH THESE WITH INDIAN WOOD PROPERTIES IS TO ALSO GET A IS DOES THE VEHICLE THE MOBILE HOME, DOES IT HAVE A LICENSE TA. I THINK IT HAS A STICKER IN THE FRONT. OKAY. BUT I DIDN'T TAKE ANY PICTURES OF IT. I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS. ONE OF THE THINGS TO DO WITH THOSE IS THAT SOMETIMES THE LANDOWNER WILL DIRECTLY TAKE ACTION AGAINST THE MOBILE HOME OWNER, BUT OTHER TIMES THEY SAY, NO, IT'S UP TO THE TO THE VILLAGE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THAT. AND, AND THE STATUTE REALLY KIND OF SUPPORTS THE MOBILE HOME PARKS. SO AND THE GOOD WAY TO DO THAT IS IF IT HAS A TAG OR IF IT HAS A STATE REGISTRATION IS TO MAKE SURE YOU GET A COPY OF IT IF YOU CAN. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. BECAUSE YOU CAN BRING THE CASE AGAINST CSLC INDIAN WOOD. AND THE ONLY THING THEY CAN DO IS EVICT, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY IS WHAT WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO. SO. I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND GRANT THE A 90 DAY. CONTINUANCE IN THIS CASE. SO THAT'S GOING TO TAKE US TO. JANUARY 15TH OR THEREABOUTS. LET'S GO JANUARY 17TH. THE END OF THE WEEK. AND THEN HOPEFULLY SHE'LL BE ABLE TO DO EVERYTHING THAT SHE NEEDS TO DO. AND I'LL PUT BOTH THE MOBILE HOME OWNER AND THE LANDOWNER ON THE NOTICE.
