In regards to the garage door opener at 8934 (south garage), if it
cannot be raised to the proper height, the garage door opener needs to
be replaced in accordance with the Florida Building Code.
If this cannot be accomplished in a timely manner then I will send a
Notice of Violation to the association.
Thanks,
Brian

Hello Mike and Brian,
I hope all is well with you both. It seems we have a saga that won't
end. Mr. Bobinski is sending emails to residents and mentioning you
both. I thought I would send you the email in which he mentions you so
that you are aware. The "killer garage door openers" to which he refers
are accentuated by his video of the door coming down on the level. You
have that video, so I did not attach it. The thing he conveniently
doesn't mention is that
the level is below the sensor that prevents the door from coming down.
Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or comments.
Thanks, Jay Petty

Dear Condominium Owner,
Did you know we have Killer Garage Door Operators in our
buildings?
Have a look at the video attached and you will see what I mean.
That thick plastic level on the floor was crushed
by the heavy overhead garage door without mercy.
Now imagine a little girl on a tricycle falling down or one of
our pets being caught under that door. Those overhead
doors are on a timer and they don't reverse, as you can see.
I supplied this and more information to the Board months ago,
but no action was taken.
There is a better automatic operator than what we have, from the
same company, together with the remote controls for less money
and it complies with the Building Code and it reverses
automatically.
Actually, most of the automatic operators in our buildings are
the commercial type and are not to be used in a residential
building because of the danger.
The manufacturer warns against that in the installation
instructions. The manufacturer also warns against installing the
present operators below 8 feet above the floor. Such an
installation and the use of these operators is in violation of the
Florida Building Code.
Did you know that all our operators are installed below the 8
foot level?
When the operator was replaced in building 8, I contacted the
City of Cape Canaveral Code Enforcement :
Brian Palmer
Building Official
(321) 868-1222 Ext 14 <tel:(321)%20868-1222>
Fax (321-868-1247 <tel:(321)%20868-1247>
Code Enforcement Officer
b.palmer@cityofcapecanaveral.org
<mailto:b.palmer@cityofcapecanaveral.org>
and the Chief:
Michael German
Building Official
(321) 868-1222 Ext 14 <tel:(321)%20868-1222>
Fax (321-868-1247 <tel:(321)%20868-1247>
m.german@cityofcapecanaveral.org
<mailto:J.lombardi@cityofcapecanaveral.org>
And they made the Association get a permit, remove the Killer
Operator and replace it with the safe kind.
When I asked the Chief about the other Killer Operators he told
me that I was the only person who complained.
The Chief wants other owners in other buildings to put in
complaints to show that they too are concerned about
those Killer Operators, then he will have the Association
replace them.
I will send separately the Photos of the Killer Operators so
that you can identify if you have the Killer type
in your garage.
Actually, the Association Board Members have refused to let me
check out any of the automatic openers in the
other buildings. The Board has refused through their expensive
attorneys to let me enter any of the other buildings
even though the Declaration of Condominium ( similar to the
Constitution of the US as a basic law) specifically
includes such access for all owners.
Oh, did you know that the Board is now employing 3 attorneys on
their behalf! Anyone who needs 3 attorneys at the
same time must be pretty worried.
How come the owners have to pay for all these attorney fees and
have their assessments raised just to protect the Board
members?
Until next time,
Alex Bobinski
