Overview: The North Miami Special Magistrate meeting centered around multiple property violations and the city’s efforts to enforce compliance, resulting in fines and deadlines for property owners. One notable issue was the case involving Dorset House Association Inc, which faced a violation for exposed rebar and concrete damage. Despite the association’s claims of conducting extensive repairs worth close to $5 million, the city inspector maintained that the permit for the repairs remained open and compliance had not been fully met. The property management and the association’s attorney argued for more time to close the permit, while the city emphasized the need for fines due to the delay.
