Walmart Faces Compliance Deadline for Stormwater Maintenance Violations in Titusville
- Meeting Overview:
During the recent Titusville Code Enforcement Board meeting, Walmart Stores East LP was granted a 45-day extension to address stormwater maintenance violations at its 3175 Cheney Highway location. The meeting, presided over by Magistrate Don Wyn, focused on the quasi-judicial nature of proceedings.
The Walmart case, numbered 25-49, involved non-compliance with section 20-214 concerning stormwater maintenance. The city presented evidence including a notice of violation, a hearing notice, and a cost recovery statement of $234.19. The violations were identified during an inspection on November 14, 2024, with an initial compliance deadline of January 14, 2025. Issues included an overgrown detention pond, a collapsed fence, and a non-functional aerator. Although landscaping was reportedly completed by July 30, 2025, the aerator remained inactive due to power issues.
In response to the violations, Walmart’s representative McGregor Love acknowledged the problem and requested an extension, citing a permit application error. The city did not oppose the request, and Magistrate Wyn found it reasonable, ordering Walmart to complete the necessary work by October 27, 2025. Failure to comply would result in a $100 daily fine and potential classification of future violations as repeat offenses. The city also reserved the right to record the order in Brevard County’s public records.
Another case involved property on Wager Avenue, where ongoing violations related to junk and debris, an accessory structure, and roof and drainage issues persisted. Despite being notified, the respondent failed to appear at the hearing or take corrective action since the previous hearing on August 11, 2025. Consequently, fines of $100 per day for each violation were imposed from September 6, 2025, and a lien was placed on the property.
Jessica Cassell’s property on Miriam Drive also drew attention due to unresolved violations including junk and debris, overgrowth, and swimming pool safety issues. Despite attempts to notify the property owner, mail was returned unclaimed, and the property was confirmed vacant with safety concerns over the unsecured pool. With no corrective action taken by the deadline, a $150 daily fine was imposed on each violation, and a lien was established, potentially leading to foreclosure.
In contrast, the board noted compliance in case 25-48 involving POP Florida Properties LLC, where all necessary installations were completed by the September 5, 2025 deadline. Administrative fees of $216.58 were assessed, and a certified compliance order was recorded.
The meeting also addressed case 25-59 concerning Michael Ray Stinson and Holly Stinson on Tamoka Avenue, focusing on a damaged fence. The respondent attended the hearing, acknowledging a misunderstanding about the fence repairs. The board granted a 30-day extension with a potential $50 daily fine for non-compliance and discussed waiving administrative costs if resolved by October 10, 2025. The respondent agreed to inform the code enforcement officer upon completion.
