Written Communication:

June 17, 2014, e-mail communication from Srivathsa Prakash, Associate, REO Settlement Services, Premium Title, requesting the Board forgive a Code Enforcement Lien attached to property located at 6503 Bellview Pines Road.

Recommendation: That the Board review and consider lien relief request made by Premium Title against property located at 6503 Bellview Pines Road.

On June 18, 2009, the Board amended the “Guidelines for Relief from Environmental (Code) Enforcement Special Magistrate Liens” Policy, Section III, H 2. Staff was instructed to review all requests for forgiveness of Environmental (Code) Enforcement Liens to determine if the request met the criteria for forgiveness, in accordance with the Board’s policy.

After reviewing the request for forgiveness of Liens, staff made the determination that the request does not fall within any of the criteria that would allow the County Administrator to deny relief, in accordance with the Board’s Policy, “Guidelines for Relief from Environmental (Code) Enforcement Special Magistrate Liens” Policy, Section III, H2.

Premium Title has no other recourse but to appeal before the Board under Written Communication.
