Loxahatchee Groves Magistrate Meeting Grants Extensions Amid Ongoing Property Violations
- Meeting Overview:
The Loxahatchee Groves Special Magistrate hearing on July 14, 2026, primarily focused on multiple requests for continuances in property violation cases, reflecting ongoing compliance challenges within the community. Notably, the magistrate granted continuances for two significant cases involving property violations due to special circumstances and hardships faced by the respondents.
A key case involved Aida Hernandez, whose properties on Okeechobee Boulevard were cited for multiple violations, including junk vehicles, trash, debris, and overgrowth. The town code compliance officer highlighted that the violations spanned two adjacent parcels, necessitating a coordinated cleanup effort. The respondent’s family, facing numerous hardships, requested additional time to comply, which the magistrate granted. The new compliance date was set for September 21, 2026, with a fine assessment hearing scheduled for October 13, 2026, maintaining a $250 per day fine for continued non-compliance beyond the new deadline.
Another case involved the respondent SFEF Florida on Okeechobee Boulevard. The town attorney and the respondent’s counsel mutually agreed to a continuance due to scheduling conflicts and family issues on the respondent’s side. The violation hearing was rescheduled for July 22, 2026.
Additionally, the case of Rena Dorol LLC was continued to August 26, 2026. The code officer had been in contact with the respondent but had not specifically discussed the continuance, which was requested by the town to address ordinance issues.
