On April 16, 2026, during reinspection on another case , she noticed an unregistered vehicle on the driveway. On April 17, 2026 she called the property owner and spoke about the violation. Mr. Lara stated since he had to put his commercial trailer in storage, he could not afford to keep the vehicle in storage.

On April 28, 2026, a reinspection noted the unregistered vehicle was still on the driveway. On May 11, 2026, on a reinspection after the compliance date, it was found that the vehicle was still unregistered and being stored on the driveway. On June 1, 2026 , a reinspection indicated the vehicle still had no current registration. On May 18, 2026, she spoke with the owner who said he was very sick and unable to move and was still waiting on the government to send paperwork so he could register the vehicle.

Board Questions Ms. Hunt asked if this vehicle is eligible for the $21.00 registration because it is a historical vehicle , an antique. Ms. Laurel explained Mr. Lara is registered as a Veteran, so he can register this vehicle. She was advised by one of the City's PCSO Deputies that it is legal for him to register. The vehicle was in storage along with the trailer, and he brought it out of storage and put in on his driveway. He moved the commercial trailer he had on the driveway into storage and brought the vehicle that was in storage to his driveway. Ms. Hunt noted she had checked and Mr. Lara would be eligible for a $21 .00 registration through the State. Mr. Alexander asked if there was any consideration for the violation of the trailer and the vehicle being combined since there was already a $150.00 fine for the trailer. 4

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Dunedin Code Enforcement Board Ms. Laurel advised that would be the decision of the Board. Attorney Carrera explained there are two separate cases for two different violations. The Board is welcome to deliberate and determine if this warrants a lower fine amount, since the trailer already has a potential fine ; there is no minimum fine.

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Dunedin Code Enforcement Board matter of any kind to accumulate in or upon such premises , and such accumulation shall be deemed to be a public nuisance. A Notice of Violation was sent via Certified Mail, emailed to the property owner, and posted at the property and City Hall on May 5, 2026 . Compliance Date: May 15, 2026 Certified Mail Delivery Confirmation for the rental property was delivered May 8, 2026, at 10:09 a.m . The Certified Mail to the homestead property was returned unclaimed on June 2, 2026 at 2:35 p.m. Notice of Hearing was sent Certified Mail and posted to the rental and homestead property and emailed to the property owner on June 17 , 2026. Delivery was attempted at the residential property on June 20, 2026 , at 10:05 a.m. ; notice was left due to an authorized recipient not being available . The homestead property delivery attempt was made June 20 , 2026 , at 11 :15 a.m .; a notice was also left due to no authorized person available at the time . This was an on line complaint submission; the complainant sent photographs of the backyard on April 23, 2026 , from the neighboring property. Also , photographs of the front yard with a refrigerator, indoor furniture , and other items were shared . Other photos were sent and taken on April 26, 2026, of the front yard and on May 5, 2026 , and June 15, 2026. This is an ongoing issue with the tenant. Every inspection was done with Code Compliance Supervisor Phillips. The tenant was present at the time of inspection, at which time there was the request for everything to be removed . On April 27, 2026, an inspection indicated all accumulation was still there. On May 7, 2026 , new items arrived to the home . On May 11, 2026, the accumulation remained . On May 26, 2026 , the refrigerator was still there , for which the tenant said she did not want to store in the garage . On May 29, 2026 , the accumulation remained . On June 1, 2026, the refrigerator remained . On June 15, 2026, there was another refrigerator in front of the garage door. On June 16, 2026 , the offensive accumulation remained . On June 16, 2026 , she sent the owner an email; he had said he secured the refrigerator with a rope; however, it is a violation of State Statute 823 .07, not only against it being there , but it cannot have doors and this did not correct the violation . On June 17, 2026, the refrigerator was removed due to her send ing an email advising she was going to write a civil citation because of the safety issue. On June 17, 2026, other accumulation rema ined . During this time , Code Compliance was unable to gain access to the rear yard , as there was always an excuse from the tenant as to why they were not allowed . The first attempt was on June 23 , 2026 , at 1:00 p.m .; however, on arriving with the Sheriff's Department the paperwork was incorrect for dates and times , so the Deputy 6

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Dunedin Code Enforcement Board stated the paperwork had to be corrected and reposted to give proper notice to access the rear yard . The Notice of Intent was posted on June 23 , 2026, at 1:55 p.m. by Mr. Ficken on the tenant's door and the inspection was completed with the Sheriffs Department present on June 24 , 2026 , at 2:00 p.m. Photographs were shown of the backyard depicting the offensive accumulation taken after the gate had to be pried open and nails removed , which is a violation as there has to be a means of ingress/egress in case of fire. On July 2, 2026 , offensive accumulation remained. Attorney Carrera verified with Inspector Gilbert all notices were posted to City Hall as well as to both properties and there was formal consent to enter the property for the rear yard . Board Questions - None Respondent Comment Mr. James Ficken of 1608 N. Osceola Avenue, Clearwater, FL stated : He is caught in the middle and asked , since this started , could Inspector Gilbert think of anything he could have legally done that he did not to encourage this tenant to remove the items or allow him to remove them. Ms. Gilbert responded that because it is Mr. Ficken 's property and he has this tenant, he had on ly to get notice of intent to enter the property, which he did. He has been trying . Every time the City has asked to gain entrance , they have not been able to do so . The only time they were able to go into the backyard was with the notice of intent to enter that was posted with the Sheriffs Office present and Mr. Ficken . Vice-Chair Ballard noted she thought what was before the Board today is to determine whether a violation exists, what that means , and what to do after that as far as timing and fines to be imposed . Attorney Carrera explained to Mr. Ficken this was his time to provide testimony to the Board and asked if he had anything to add at this time . Mr. Ficken stated : He went by the property this morning; the gate is blockaded again. According to the pictures provided by the neighbors, the fire pit has been stocked and is ready to start a fire again . As far as the side garage door, the lock is not broken ; it is just accessible for inside and that has not been reported to him. He has been working with Code Compliance from the beginning to try to encourage the tenant to bring the property into compliance and mitigation . He has done everything he can possibly do to get it done . He started eviction proceedings and provided the notification to share . That seems to be the only thing he can manage to do to get access to the property to mitigate all these circumstances. The process has started , and the tenant has 7 days to cure the violation of the lease which specifically mentions taking care of these violations. The 7 days expired this past Friday and she did hardly anything , a couple of hours on 7

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Dunedin Code Enforcement Board Saturday and maybe a couple of hours work on Sunday. They have made some progress, maybe 30% to 40% or 50%, but it is not done now. The earliest he could file for the eviction was yesterday, so depending on the Board's determination, he will try and it looks like he will have to spend hundreds of dollars to file a complaint to get the eviction going and have the tenant be removed by the Sheriff, so he can get access to the property; it will take a day or two to get everything out or to the front porch, etc. He has done everything he possibly can to mitigate this and come into compliance. He thinks the process is unfair as he is caught in the middle. He has not done anything wrong and the Board comes after him and they cannot do anything to her. He can only encourage her over and over and then go through the eviction process. He asked the Board to give him enough time for the eviction process to proceed . Board Questions Mr. Reynolds asked when Mr. Ficken first became aware of the situation at this property. Mr. Ficken thought it was the last part of April , maybe the first part of May. Mr. Reynolds noted Mr. Ficken was aware he had a tenant in material breach of the lease that is creating a public safety hazard on his property. He asked what prevented him from filing for eviction back in May. Mr. Ficken stated he did file for eviction earlier; this one on Friday was a second eviction . Mr. Sweetser asked how long Mr. Ficken has had this tenant. Mr. Ficken advised since the middle of February 2026; the accumulation happened because she brings in things every day, even with all the notices and complaints. Mr. Bolduc asked the time process for the eviction to follow through. Mr. Ficken stated he filed today or tomorrow ; it goes to the Court and it takes two or three days for the process server. Then, the defendant has 5 days to respond and then usually the default filing is made with the Court, who sends it to the Judge and that takes time for that decision; then it goes to the mail and then the Deputy Sheriff sometimes takes three days to go out and then give another notice for another day to put them out. It could be 3 weeks if everything goes smoothly. All those things are beyond his control. Ms. Hunt clarified with Mr. Ficken that on June 26, he filed the violation of the lease with right to cure . That expired and the Courts were not open over the weekend . Now he can file the complaint and then the process begins. Attorney Carrera inquired if it was Mr. Ficken's testimony that he was requesting three to four weeks for compliance of the cited violation and if he thought that time frame to be reasonable. Mr. Ficken stated it depends on all the third parties, for which there is about four; it might take a little longer. Attorney Carrera asked if he were to provide the Board with a timeline today, what would that be for correction of the violations? Mr. Ficken stated he thought 4 weeks would give a good chance for it to be done. Mr. Sweetser asked if there were any violations on this property in the past few years and Inspector Gilbert advised there were none that she was aware of. 8

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Public Comment Dunedin Code Enforcement Board Sheila Heiman, neighbor, 47 Highland Avenue commented : Her concern has been the ongoing problem . She did not file a complaint for two months , thinking all the activity was moving and the items would be put away at some point. Then it escalated beyond moving in ; it has been a pattern of behavior. Also , there is increased criminal activity that has never been in their neighborhood before. Police were on their street for two weeks for multiple reasons, there were people living in a car for two weeks ; they were calling the police on her and she was calling the police on them . Then the fire in the back yard was the final straw, fearing it would burn down the whole neighborhood. This was the first person to live in the house for twenty years and they cleared a place for a fire. It is not going to get better; any time there is an inspection , she immediately gets more stuff. She thought the eviction process could have been done sooner. There is another refrigerator in the yard today and the fire and the debris . Melissa Lazio, tenant, of 53 Highland Avenue commented: She had met with Mr . Ficken and saw the property that had been empty for 19 years ; she was not aware of that until she spoke with a couple of neighbors. She and Mr. Ficken have an agreement. She explained her circumstances and that the house was not up to Code, and nothing worked. She listed the numerous issues with the house and that there was already all kinds of furniture in the backyard and inside, as well as three vehicles parked on the property and in the garage . The agreement was that he was going to pay her to clean up and clear out this property and also to work on the property. For the first two weeks , they had to live in the driveway in her vehicle . She had to rip out tile and everything and try to get everything to work ; he was supposed to pay her. She explained that her son became ill and she was not doing her other job to bring in income. SSI was going to give him First, Last and Security, but would not because the house was not up to Code. Her son 's behavior seizures, which he has never had before, are the reason the police were there in addition to other health issues , and he was in the hospital. Now she has no income and had to close out two storage units with her personal property and some work property. The house is up to Code now. Her son has been in the hospital for 17 weeks and just out for 2 ½ weeks and she was not able ; she stated Mr . Ficken had struck her and her 10 year old child and broke the fence down with an axe; that is the reason why she needed the gate. She is a single mother and has to keep her child safe and a lot of that property is his. She can provide photographs . Attorney Carrera at the request of Mr . Ficken allowed a rebuttal ; however, noted Ms . Lazio was not called as a witness ; it was public comment. Mr. Ficken stated most of what she said is irrelevant and most of it is lies . He could go 9

Regular Meeting July 7, 2026 Dunedin Code Enforcement Board over it point by point. Vice-Chair Ballard reiterated what has come before the Board is to determine whether a violation exists. If the violation does exist, the Board is to determine how much time might be needed for this to be cured . She asked for staff's recommendation . Staff Recommendation Requesting compliance on or before July 28 , 2026 , or given the severity of the violations are major, a fine of $250.00 per day per violation for each day the violations continue to exist. MOTION: Mr. Reynolds moved in Case 26-410 , to find the Respondent, Suncoast Third Trust/Clearwater Res Trust/Ficken , James R.
