Fort Myers Beach Magistrate Orders Property Compliance Amid Ongoing Code Violations
- Meeting Overview:
During a recent Fort Myers Beach Special Magistrate meeting, the case of Sellart Properties LLC’s ongoing code violations on Fairview Boulevard dominated the agenda. The property, reported to be in disrepair with issues such as missing fence sections and improperly installed windows, has been under scrutiny since July 2024. Despite some recent actions to address these issues, full compliance has not been achieved. The magistrate ordered the property owner to resolve outstanding violations within 21 days, imposing a $250 administrative fee and a potential daily fine if compliance is not met by February 4th.
Officer Bat, a compliance officer with Fort Myers Beach, presented the case, detailing the property’s violations and the history of attempted communications with the owner. The documentation provided included evidence of the property’s condition and the lack of progress over several months. The magistrate acknowledged some efforts to rectify the issues but emphasized the need for complete compliance. The ordered fines are intended to incentivize timely repairs and maintenance.
Throughout the hearing, it was noted that the property owner had not been in contact with the town, despite some improvements indicating awareness of the violations. The magistrate stressed that the property owner is responsible for notifying the town upon achieving compliance to avoid accruing further fines.
