OLD BUSINESS:
1. Case No. 01-0008 - Violation of Section 94-4(11 ), Exemptions, of the Cape
Canaveral Code of Ordinances, (8050 N. Atlantic Ave.) - Pravin & Jyostna Patel.
Property Owner. (Request for reduction or release of lien)
Code Enforcement Officer, Duree Alexander, provided a brief overview of the Case
history and presented exhibits for the Board's review. Officer Alexander testified that the
respondent is requesting a reduction of the lien.
Anthony Garganese, City Attorney, explained to the Board Members that the foreclosure
action has been filed against Mr. Patel, which has prompted him to apply for the
satisfaction or reduction of the lien. Attorney Garganese further explained that the issue
before the Board is to consider whether to recommend to Council to reduce the lien,
considering six factors: 1) the gravity of the violation 2) the time in which it took the
violator to come into compliance 3) the accrued amount of the lien 4) any previous or
subsequent code violations 5) any financial hardship 6) any other mitigating
circumstances which may warrant the reduction or satisfaction of the penalty or fine.
Attorney Andrew Miniheart, representative for Mr. Patel, stated that they are requesting a
release or reduction of the lien. Attorney Miniheart testified that there are two Mr. Patel's;
Mr. Patel, the property owner, and Mr. Patel, the tenant. Attorney Miniheart further stated
that the property owner did not receive any notification due to the fact that the notice of
violation and the lawsuit were sent to the store, which was received by Mr. Patel, the
tenant. In 2001 the tenant received the first notice of violation, removed some of the
signs, and was under the impression that was the issue was resolved. Years pasted
before another notice was received in 2006 regarding the relocation of the cashier
station, which was promptly addressed by the property owner. Attorney Miniheart further
testified that the property owner has been at this location for many years and has recently
made improvements to the property in excess of sixty to seventy thousand dollars.
Attorney Miniheart requested that the Board recommend to Council a reduction in the lien
amount to cover the City's costs and attorney fees not to exceed approximately five
thousand dollars ($5,000.00), otherwise Mr. Patel would be forced to sell the property and
close the business.
Mary Russell reviewed the six points that the City Attorney talked about and stated that
the gravity of the violation is not the aesthetic issue of the signs but the safety factor for
our police officers; the time it took to come into compliance was five years, from 2001 to
2006; the accrued amount is seventy thousand dollars, not five thousand; there are no
previous violations for this address; the financial status is unknown to the Board; and the
mitigating circumstances has been stated that the wrong Mr. Patel was notified.
Mr. Patel, property owner, testified that in 2006 when the notice of lien was received, he
addressed the issues and spoke to Officer Alexander who told him everything was fine.
He stated that he spent fifty thousand dollars in repairs to the property.
Attorney Miniheart stated that there is a serious due process issue that needs to be
addressed; if we have to litigate it we will and the property owner has not received proper
notification.

The Board asked Mr. Patel, property owner, when he had first became aware of the sign
violations.
Mr. Patel, property owner, testified that the tenant notified him of the sign problem in
2001.
Officer Alexander testified that she sent the notices to the property owner and to the
business owner and feels confident that the prior Code Enforcement Officer has sent
proper notification. Officer Alexander explained that in the May 17, 2001 Code
Enforcement Board Meeting Minutes, Page 7, the testimony of the Code Enforcement
Officer was that the notices were properly delivered. She further explained that a letter
was received from Mr. Patel on August 3, 2001, which stated that he was aware of the
Violation. Officer Alexander further stated that she has requested the records from the
archives, and will research the notification history further.
Officer Alexander respectfully requested that the Board deny the respondents request to
satisfy the lien in the amount of $70,075.00 and order the respondent to pay a reduced
amount of $10,500.00 for reimbursement to the City of Cape Canaveral for inordinate
expenses incurred during the Code Enforcement investigation and processing of the
Violation for the last four years.
Attorney Garganese recommended that if the Board considers a reduction the lien
amount, they should also consider additional fees to include the legal fees and costs
associated with the foreclosure procedure. Discussion followed regarding the lien
amount.
Motion by Mr. Stewart, seconded by Mr. Hale, to double the staff's recommendation from
$10,500.00 to the amount of twenty-one thousand dollars ($21,000.00) in addition to the
billed amount of the legal fees and costs associated with the foreclosure proceedings.
Vote on the motion carried unanimously.

Code Enforcement Officer, Duree Alexander, provided an overview of the Case history
and presented exhibits for the Board's review. Officer Alexander testified that the
respondent checked with the Building department regarding permit requirements for a
patio. Todd Morley, Building Official, informed Mr. Saurenmann that a minor patio is
exempt from permitting but cautioned that nothing could be built on the patio. Mr.
Saurenmann was later contacted by Mr. Morley to inform him that a permit was in fact
required due to the fact that plumbing and footers were being installed. Mr. Saurenmann
applied for the permit, which revealed that the structure encroached into the City
easement. Mr. Saurenmann was told to stop work and if he continued it would be at his
own risk.
Todd Morley, Building Official, testified that he rnet with Mr. Saurenmann on site and
stated that a minor patio with nothing else to it, did not require a permit. Mr. Morley
requested a sketch of the work. Mr. Saurenmann subsequently provided the sketch and
it was then noted that there was an easement encroachment violation.
Testifying to the easement encroachment violation, Ed Gardulski, Public Works Director,
stated that according to the original plat of Harbor Heights, the 10' P.U.E. (publiC utility
easement) has not been vacated at this location, and is still a recorded easement for the
City; therefore, the encroachment is more than a few feet.

Mr. Morley further testified that Mr. Saurenmann had initially stated that he might possibly
build on the slab in the future. Mr. Morley informed Mr. Saurenmann that if a structure
was going to be constructed on the slab it would require footings, and Mr. Morley would
not allow the work to continue without a permit. Mr. Morley asked Mr. Saurenmann to
apply for a permit to continue, and have the footers inspected so that the location and
size would be on file. Mr. Saurenmann agreed and provided a building permit application
and a sketch of the work being done. Mr. Morley further stated that he went back out to
the site the following day and met with Mrs. Saurenmann. After she agreed to allow him
access, he took some photo's, at which time, he noticed that footings had been
excavated, reinforcing steel was in place and plumbing was installed that was not
discussed. Mr. Morley called Mr. Saurenmann and instructed him to notcontinue without
the permit. Mr. Saurenmann responded that he could not stop the work and he was
pouring the concrete the next day.
Officer Alexander continued her testimony stating that Mr. Saurenmann applied for the
permit on January 11,2007, and upon review by the Public Works Director, he stated that
the concrete would encroach on the easement.
Mr. Saurenmann testified that it was never his intention to do work without a permit. Mr.
Saurenmann stated that he went to the building department to find out what was needed
for the proposed work on the slab. Bob Haley, Plans Examiner, told Mr. Saurenmann
that drawings were required. Mr. Saurenmann stated that he was simply repairing an
existing structure as shown on the survey. The issue of the footer came up during a
discussion with Mr. Morley and was installed in the slab in case Mr. Saurenmann decided
to build on the slab at a later date. Mr. Morley told him that a permit was not required for
the concrete. Mr. Saurenmann stated that the issue is the P.U.E. that was taken out at a
P & Z meeting except his and his neighbor because he would not give the City the 20'
back portion for an easement. Furthermore, the City's sewer line is running through his
property and he is requesting royalties, costs, or damages from the City. The City told
him that if he signed off to give the City the easement, then he would get the permit. Mr.
Saurenmann stated that he felt like the City blackmailed him and he is filing a complaint
against Ed Gardulski to the Attorney General's office to look into this issue. Mr.
Saurenmann stated that he is not in violation. He further stated that he only repaired his
slab and he only put in the footers as a precaution. If he intends to expand, he will apply
for a permit at that time.
Mr. Saurenmann also explained that he purchased a structure for his wife that has four
posts with an umbrella-type top and he is not sure where he will put the structure. It is a
temporary structure that can be moved around.
Craig Stewart asked Mr. Saurenmann if he understood what laws are and further stated
that the City has laws in the form of Ordinances. Mr. Stewart stated that Mr. Saurenmann
went forth and constructed something when Mr. Morley told him not to proceed. Mr.
Saurenmann replied that that was not correct. Mr. Stewart continued to state that he
should not have installed the slab that included plumbing and footers without a permit.
Mr. Stewart voiced his opinion that he should have to take out the slab.
Mr. Saurenmann stated that the form boards were in place and Mr. Morley told him that
no permit was required to pour concrete. Discussion was held regarding the difference
between the terms "patio" and "slab". The Board explained that a patio is simply concrete
without plumbing or footers. Discussion followed.

A site visit on January 29, 2007 revealed an uncapped sewer line allowing raw sewage to drain into
the street. Public Works was contacted and they attempted to clean the line. Staff witness excessive
grease being pumped out of the line. Research revealed that your grease trap is only being cleaned out
every ninety days. It is illegal to dump grease into the sewer system.
State of Florida Department of Health Chapter 64E-6 Florida Administrative Code provides for the
following equation regarding grease trap size requirements:
Restaurants: (S) X (GS)X(HR/12) X (LF)=effective capacity of grease interceptor in gallons.
(GS=gallons of waste water per seat; use 25 gallon for ordinary restaurants; S=seats;HR=number of
hours establishment is open; LF=Load factor: use 2.0 interstate highway, 1.0 main highway: M=meals;
GM=gallons of wastewater per meal use 5 gallons; LF=loading factor: use 1.00 with dishwashing and. 75
without.
4. Recommendation to correct the violation(s) described above:
The minimum volume of any grease interceptor shall be 750 gallons and the maximum volume of
an individual single grease interceptor chamber shall be 1250 gallons.
You must have the grease trap cleaned out every month and provide the City documentation
regarding the number of times it is cleaned out. Staff is also requesting your provide a statement
regarding how all other types of grease are disposed of.
You have placed seating outside the restaurant. Per Appendix 8 the Schedule of Fees you will be
assessed an additional $292.23 per seat for the commercial impact assessment for the increase in
seating for your restaurant.
