Scope Properties LLC Code Compliance Case No. 187094 Case 1 Nature of Violation: Violation of Land Development Code Section 7110(D): Projects proposed on principal and minor arterials and major collectors (see Functional Classification Map) shall include frontage or service roads, and shall take access from the frontage road rather than the arterial or major collector where frontage or service roads do not exist. This requirement can be met through cross access. Where natural features cause this requirement to be physically infeasible, alternate designs may be approved. Cross Access may be accomplished through interconnecting of parking lots that abut the arterial or major collector. The Cross Access connection shall consist of a paved 20 foot wide connection to both neighboring properties. The connection shall be constructed to the property line. The cross access connection shall begin after the throat distance for the driveway. The Respondent was not present despite being notified via Certified Mail. Code Officer Scott McKinney testified that his initial inspection was conducted on February 4, 2016 at which time the violation was confirmed. He observed the parking area of the property to be recently coated. It appears as though the parking lot lines have been repainted and the curb stops rearranged. He spoke with the complainant and he stated that the curb stops had been moved and they are now blocking the handicap access to his business as well as the cross access of the parking lot. Subsequent inspections revealed that more has been done to block the cross access as more curb stops have been added. Joanna Coutu, Land Development Director, testified that the curb stops have been placed to block cross access. Cross access has been in the code since the 1980s. She has reviewed all of the site plans since this site was constructed and nothing indicates that the cross access was not included as this is one development site. She doesn t have an improved site plan that would make this property looked at as a separate development site. As such, they can t waive cross access, they don t qualify for a new driveway cut on US Hwy 41 so they need to keep the access open. John Foley, Florida Department of Transportation District 7, testified that he is employed with the access management department. They do need cross access for the properties along this roadway. It would be very difficult for the smaller property to get access from the state road. If access was cut off, the state would be responsible to allow them access on to the highway but it would be extremely difficult. There are some issues with safety. There are plans for changes in this area. Florida Department of Transportation plans to widen the road and change the shape and configuration of how State Road 200 joins US Hwy 41. The project is in phase 2 with a fiscal year date of 2021 which means it could, if necessary, be brought forward. If it was brought forward with plans at phase 2, it could possibly be two (2) years out.if it s not brought forward, the plans would be completed in 2021 and it would take approximately eleven (11) months to construct. The configuration is completely different than it is now. The widening would completely take out the first business on the corner and the business next to it would lose part of its front yard. More than likely, the strip mall would only get one (1) access and the business next to it would get one (1) access and the state would build their driveways from the road to their property line. It would 5

become a four (4) lane divided highway. There would be a pond somewhere in the middle for storm water management. In the meantime, if cross access can t be worked out between now and 2021, they would need to close the southern driveway in order to place another driveway so the smaller property would have a driveway. Under the class 3 regulation, driveways can t be more than 660 feet apart; therefore, they have the right to close the southern driveway. They could conduct a traffic study to determine if the northern driveway would become the only driveway that the shopping center may have because the current conflict at the intersection with the fourth leg of the intersection going into the shopping center would put more cycles in the signal which would move more traffic efficiently and safely. They would prefer the businesses to work out their cross access until the new project comes in and then they would negotiate the driveway locations. Scott Kiefer testified that he owns the antique shop whose access is being blocked. He submitted into evidence photographs of how the property previously looked and a letter from a handicapped customer who wasn t able to access his business and didn t feel safe getting out of his vehicle. When he purchased the building approximately 3 ½ years ago, the building to the left of him was empty and the Hernando Plaza was a shared parking lot and he has surveys from when the plaza was originally built. It has always been a shared access. When he spoke with the plaza owner, he told them that the reason they blocked access was because customers of the restaurant that opened on the other side of Mr. Kiefer were cutting through their parking lot and they wanted to deny that access. Due to this blockage, Mr. Kiefer and his customers are unable to access his property. His customers have to basically park in the driveway and back out of there onto the highway which is dangerous and his handicap parking has been blocked. Special Master Order: Respondent is in violation of a violation of Land Development Code Section 7110(D) Access Management General Standards which states: Projects proposed on principal and minor arterials and major collectors (see Functional Classification Map) shall include frontage or service roads, and shall take access from the frontage road rather than the arterial or major collector where frontage or service roads do not exist. This requirement can be met through cross access. Where natural features cause this requirement to be physically infeasible, alternate designs may be approved. Cross Access may be accomplished through interconnecting of parking lots that abut the arterial or major collector. The Cross Access connection shall consist of a paved 20 foot wide connection to both neighboring properties. The connection shall be constructed to the property line. The cross access connection shall begin after the throat distance for the driveway. To Wit: Ensure the cross access meets the standards set forth in this code. The Respondent can abate the violation by ensuring the cross access meets the standards set forth in this code. The Respondent is granted 30 days from the date of the order to abate the violation. If the violation is not brought into compliance as ordered, a penalty of $50.00 per day will be property of Scope Properties LLC. The County Attorney s Office may seek foreclosure or money judgment on any unpaid lien of record three months from the date of first recording. 6

Respondent shall be responsible to pay all costs required by County ordinance or regulation, which may also be filed as a lien of record. Pursuant to Section 162.09(1), Florida Statutes, a hearing shall not be necessary prior to imposing such fine. Miley, Franklin E. Code Compliance Case No. 188142 Case 2 **REPEAT VIOLATION** except for junk stored in enclosed litter receptacles or completely enclosed buildings; for no more than 48 hours for pick up and removal; except for recyclable material stored in established and maintained junkyard, garbage or waste disposal site or sanitary landfill; and except for accumulations of vegetative waste on agricultural lands on the above property, pursuant to Article III, Section 20-31(a) of the Citrus County Code of Ordinances. To Wit: Furniture, tires, appliances, metal shelving, household garbage, mobile homes, and any other miscellaneous debris. Code Officer Amy Becker testified that this is a repeat violation as the Respondent was previously found guilty of the same violation at the same location owned by the Respondent on October 15, 2014 in case #161408 which subsequently abated on November 25, 2014 prior to fines being imposed. Her initial inspection for this violation was conducted on March 30, 2016 and was confirmed at that time. She met with Mr. Miley on April 13, 2016 and advised him that all of the mobile homes must be removed from the property. The Notice of Violation/Notice of Hearing was posted on the property and the Lecanto Government Building on March 31, 2016. Subsequent inspections revealed progress each time to abate the violation. Upon her final inspection on April 19, 2016 major progress has been made; however, the property remains in violation. The Respondent, Franklin Miley, was present and testified that he agrees the property was a mess. He has made a major improvement in cleaning up the property. A couple mobile homes remain on the property that needs to be removed. There will only be a mobile home left on the property as the automobile is being removed tomorrow. The white double wide mobile home has been sold and the permits are being submitted on Friday or Monday to place it on the customer s property. Mr. Miley requested that the mobile home be allowed to remain on the property without a fine being imposed. Special Master Order: Citrus County Code of Ordinances Section 19-24 defines repeat violation as follows: Repeat violation shall mean a violation of a provision of county codes by a person who has been previously found through a code enforcement board or any other quasi-judicial or judicial process, to have violated or who has admitted violating the same provision within five years prior to the violation, notwithstanding the violations occur at different locations. 7

Violator shall mean the person creating or permitting the violation of any provision of the county codes, or a person who owns, controls, or is otherwise responsible for the real property upon which the violation occurred. Respondent therefore is guilty of a repeat violation of Citrus County Code of Ordinances, Article III Section 20-31(a), It shall be unlawful for the owner or tenant of any land to permit, cause or have thereon any accumulation of junk, debris, rubbish and vegetative matter except for junk stored in enclosed litter receptacles or completely enclosed buildings; for no more than 48 hours for pick up and removal; except for recyclable material stored in except for accumulations of vegetative waste on agricultural lands on the above property. To Wit: Furniture, tires, appliances, metal shelving, household garbage, mobile homes, and any other miscellaneous debris. The Respondent can abate the violation by removing the junk and debris from the property or placing it in a permitted enclosed structure. A total fine from March 31, 2016 April 19, 2016 of $100.00 per day for twenty (20) days for a total of $2,000.00 will be recorded in the public record of Citrus County for a repeat violation and will constitute a lien on real or personal property of Franklin E. Miley. A fine of $100.00 per day will be imposed from April 20, 2016 until the violation is abated. This fine will be recorded and will constitute a lien on real or personal property of Franklin E. Miley. The County Attorney s Office may seek foreclosure or money judgment on any unpaid lien of record three months from the date of first recording. Respondent shall be responsible to pay all costs required by County ordinance or regulation, which may also be filed as a lien of record. Pursuant to Section 162.09(1), Florida Statutes, a hearing shall not be necessary prior to imposing such fine.
