On April 21,1998 I paid a personal visit to you in your office at 363 Atlantic Blvd.#3. At that time
I notified you of a sign violation in front of unit #14, Siere Grill that must be removed immediatly.
You assured me that it would be removed that day. As of April 24,1998 the sign remains in front
of that location. This is a violation of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances Chapter 17, Section 17-
2- (c).
On July 1,1997 you appeared before the Code Enforcement Board, The findings of fact of that
hearing stated " if found in violation again, the board voted to impose a fine of $100.00 per day,
until such time as the property was again in compliance". As of your receipt of this notice and
until such time as the sign is removed that fine is imposed.
As prescribed in Florida Statute 162.06(3) (Enforcement Procedure) this is a repeat violation.
You will be notified by certified mail or hand delivery when to appear before the Code
Enforcement Board.
Under Florida Statute 162.09 the Code Enforcement Board may impose a fine of up to $500.00
